I'm still a semi-noob. Only played for 4 weeks in 1.09 and so far 4 weeks in 1.10 with about a year in between playing. i remember me wanting a lidless and I showed him a few items of what I had, and his response was "how about something worth a lidless?"

So last night I was playing and some guy wanted a vampiremagi. I come in and show him and he shows me 5 things. I think the best was sigon's shield. i felt so bad about because I almost said "How about something worth a vampiremagi?" When he asked what I wanted, I asked for a bow and he showed me a few bows. Like Arctic horn level. I just laughed.

Turns out all he wanted the skullder's for was for mfing. I tossed him one of the 4 socketed armor (low str req) i had and told him to get ptopazes and socket them. He was happy as can be.

So I guess I'm the same way. If they're nice enough, I might help them out.
