Conquest of the Horde

OK, so, as a preliminary note, I just finished doing a bunch of searches on this board and around the forums in general, and I don't believe this suggestion has been made before. That said, I'm rather new around here, so if this turns out to be one of those issues that's been hashed out on the forums innumerable times already, please feel free to point out my idiocy--I won't mind.

As we all know, the Trinity core, the lifeblood of CotH, is bugged in a myriad of ways. One such bug is that the Archaeology profession as a whole simply doesn't work. While most of the wearable/wieldable rewards, such as Queen Azshara's Dressing Gown and Zin'rokh, Destroyer of Worlds, are available through the .addrpitem command, all the other stuff is (afaik) unavailable in-game since the profession itself is broken.

The fact of the matter is that all the archaeology rewards, even the grey "trash" drops, are literally brimming with flavor and RP potential. To that end, would it be feasible to put a vendor somewhere that sells the rewards instead? Perhaps on GM isle on the profession boat in the sky?

p.s. Although Zin'rokh is obtainable through .addrpitem, isn't actually wieldable because it's marked as lv86 to wield, presumably because it's a BFS a la 'geddon.

As a brief p.s.s. over my last p.s., with my request I'm assuming that all the archaeology rewards are in fact present in the game itself but that they're simply inaccessible. If arch is so FUBAR that the items aren't even in the game at all right now, then this idea would most certainly amount to more trouble than it's worth.

That said, since Zin'rokh and Azhara's Dressing Gown and Staff of Ammunae and many other arch wieldables are currently in the .addrpitem database, I wouldn't suspect this to be a problem. The item data should be there.

But again, I'm relatively new, so I could easily be wrong. [/i]

I support this whole heartedly. I had an idea for a troll dk who had raised his raptor after he became undead but then I found out that archeology is broken ;-;

A bump for this.

This one would adore a vendor like this...
