Ok to all the new comers out there, or even the elders. WATCH WHAT YOU BUY! I got screwed into buying one of these skills from someone for 60s thinking it was the vitality 2 scroll production skill. This is the fighter Vitality Skill, where it makes him stronger for a couple minutes. Just giving people a headsup, and hoping that a GM will maybe do something about it.

GMs have already said they won't do anything about it unless they're caught falsly advertising a Vit2 scroll production skill, but thanks for the headsup ^^

Even how sad scamming is I doubt GM's could possibly bann everybody scamming.
Scammers are like flies, you kill 1 and there will come 10 to eat the corpse :mad:

He is clearly advertising "Vit 2" aka Vitality 02 which is in fact the proper name for what he is selling. So no, that is not a scam, he's just overpricing it.

its not a scam really
if you look at the description you can tell.
But they could alter the description more to make it work better and not get so many people confused.

Oh, come on. They're taking advantage of a loophole. Doesn't mean that these people are not scammers. There's been a big rash of these lately, it's not a coincidence that there are a lot of people 'accidentally' selling Vitality 02 -.-

If they really wanted to fix this they would put the Vitality tier 2 production scroll for sale on the NPC's with all the other productions scrolls, which is where it should be anyway. They invite scamming by not making things like this available and putting other things in the game that look like them. Its stupid to make Tier 1 and Tier 3 available and then make Tier 2 only available thru who knows where.

Grey area. There's actually nothing there that says he's selling the recipe to Vit 2. In fact, if I didn't know anything, I would've just assumed it was for the warrior skill and that he was overpricing (and let's not get into saying ALL overpricers are scammers).

In truth, I believe the person is waiting for someone who's rushing through the sale and just assumes it's the recipe, but it can be argued, and the GMs may want a rock-solid case of scam (like putting a "Selling recipe for Vit 2 scroll" in your title: I've seen and reported THAT one).

Lastly, the argument may be moot: this post seems more to tell US about the scam, which it did very well. A report to the GM would be via PM and, thus, would be between the writer and the GM.
