    There are a number of items that are annoyingly rare in the game (long bows in early-to-mid game, some god's quest items, Kathorn Crystal, etc.). Some can only be bought that are very rare, some that only can be found in chests but are very rare, and some that can only be found on NPCs. My question is what items (that are not rewards of quests or similarly unique) should be sold or found that are currently not, or are currently too rare?

    For instance, some simple items that should be for sale are not: Quality Robes and regular Boots are examples. Since Arcane items are for sale, why not Charmed, Magick, or Mystic items? Since Magick Robes are for sale, why not Small Magick Robes?

    A number of Herbology items can be found and bought (Healing Salve, Fatigue Restorer, Cure Poison). Why not items from other technical disciplines, especially items that are one-time use? I'd certainly think that dwarves would have left an odd-item here and there, especially in their own mines!

    The Screaming Scimitar is a unique item found only on NPCs that is not listed in description.mes, so I don't know how to get a merchant to sell it or for it to be a random item in a chest (Anyone know how to do this?).

    There are only a few high-powered items that are currently nowhere in the game (at least that I can find), but could be sold:
    - the Balanced Boomerang (D: 1-10, FT: 1-3, RNG: 20 Wgt: 50, Spd: 19, HPs: 80), tech item
    - Many Large armors (Large Bronzed Plate, Large Dragonskin Leather, etc.)
    - Mithril Platemail (in all 3 sizes, cheaper than Arcane and nearly as good)

    I suspect most of this is not available because it's too unbalancing.

    There are a LOT more items listed in the .mes files that do not appear in the game.
