<p>The answer is, yes there was a bug where players rooked themselves and kept items from Mainland. However, there were actually several bugs that I found in my research, so I want to include all of them-</p><ul><li>Brass them-</p><ul><li>The brass set and jagged sword were brought on Rookgaard from Dawnport in 2014 via bug - players had to throw that EQ over the wall, relog on another character character, and teleport to Rookgaard with them. It's no longer possible.</li><li>Halberd and other Dawnport items were brought on Rookgaard the same way, but technically it wasn't a bug, because you didn't have to use any trick to transfer them. It's no longer possible.</li><li>There was also another bug in 2014, that allowed people to transfer items from Mainland to Rookgaard, some people (very few) have brought spike swords, demon sets sets, etc. The bug occured occurred after the introduction of an <strong>adventurer's blessing</strong> - players on levels 1-20 who haven't attacked other players, were protected by this blessing and did not loose lose any items upon death. People used it to rook their mainland characters with lots of items in their inventory, inventory and thus transfering transfer them to Rookgaard. It's also no longer possible.</li><li>The 2022 bug deleted the famous rook stayer Dark Gladir (among others) due to bug abuse. From what I read the Old instructions on how the bug worked but this has since been fixed-</li></ul><blockquote><p>Remove your character's adventurer's blessing by attacking any player.</p><p>Drop your total XP points to between 1500-1518 by dying to level 6.</p><p>Buy following blessings:- Phoenix Charm- Solitude Charm- Spiritual Charm- Twin Sun Charm- Unity Charm- Twist of Fate</p><p>Drop your character's health to 1 hitpoint.</p><p>Stand in a tight nook with only 1 sqm available to move (for example at the end of a tunnel), and log out.</p><p>Another player would die a second after logging in and then bring items from Mainland.</li></ul><p> Sources-</p><ol><li>https://www.reddit.com/r/rookgaard/wiki/index/rookgaardfaq/rookbrass</li><li>https://www.reddit.com/r/Rookgaard/wiki/index/2022glitch/</li></ol>selects his red mode in PVP and throws 2 fire fields on the sqm you logged out, and on another available sqm next to it.</p><p>You (level 6 with 1hp) log in on the fire field, dying instantly and being transfered to Dawnport with your mainland equipment. It probably has something to do with death having high priority in the game script.</p><p>Teleport from Dawnport to Rookgaard with help of NPC Inigo: hi, Rookgaard, yes, yes.</p></blockquote><p> Sources-</p><ol><li>https://www.reddit.com/r/rookgaard/wiki/index/rookgaardfaq/rookbrass</li><li>https://www.reddit.com/r/Rookgaard/wiki/index/2022glitch/</li><li>https://www.reddit.com/r/Rookgaard/comments/wku82o/the_new_glitch_allowing_transfer_of_mainland/</li></ol>
