<div style="float: right; margin: 0 0 10px 10px">__TOC__</div> Various '''items''' are scattered on the island and can be carried in a player's [[inventory]]. All items can be found by searching in the appropriate places; some tend to be found more in huts and villages, while others are more likely to be found in the jungle. All items can be [[Trading|traded]] to [[trader]]s for what they have in stock. Most items are used for cost of 1 AP by clicking on them in the inventory. Clicking on items which are only useful in battle or trade will give you a short description of the item, at no cost of AP. For more information, see [[Talk:Items]]. == Melee weapons == The default weapon, the punch, deals 1 point of base damage at 10% base accuracy. There is a very low chance of a weapon dealing additional damage during combat. "Maybe it's luck or maybe it's skill, your attack is right on target and inflicts more damage than normal. You attack [the target] for 5 damage." There is also a very low chance of a weapon breaking during combat, which causes you to lose that weapon. "Unlucky or just clumsy? The blade snaps off and you're left holding the handle, which you discard." The odds that a weapon will break on a given swing appear to be about 0.1%, and the odds of dealing extra damage look to be the same; see [[Special weapon event odds]] for more information. <br clear="all" /> {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; border: solid 1px #ccc; border-collapse: collapse" |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !colspan="6"|Melee Weapons |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !Name !!

If a ranged weapon is not loaded, the character will not be able to attack with it. Reloading is accomplished for 1 [[AP]] by clicking on name of the ammunition associated with weapon in the inventory list. {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; border: solid 1px #ccc; border-collapse: collapse" |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !colspan="6"|Ranged Weapons |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !Name !!

Animals take a further 2 HP of damage immediately from poison, while human targets incur 1 HP of damage on each of their next four actions. No XP is gained from poison damage. A special skill allows natives to fire the blowpipe without the need for reloading. |} {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; border: solid 1px #ccc; border-collapse: collapse" |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !colspan="4"|Ammunition |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !Name !!

XP is also gained equal to the HP restored or removed by the item.<br> Fruits and drinks may only be used on yourself. First aid kits and healing herbs may also be used to heal [[animals]] and other characters (including [[NPC]] [[trader]]s and [[shaman]]s). Attempting to use one on someone with full health uses no AP and does not waste the item; instead, you will see that "''Player'' is already at full health." {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; border: solid 1px #ccc; border-collapse: collapse" |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !colspan="6"|Consumables |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !Name !!

Functionally, it is identical to an empty bottle, except that the two count as separate items in the trading hut. ====Pumpkin==== * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': ? * '''[[Locations]]''': jungle (during Halloween or a few days before) Pumpkins can be carved into ghastly or jolly jack o'lanterns, the type being decided apparently at random. Two pumpkins can be juiced into an empty bottle or gourd. == Useful equipment == === GPS unit === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $250 * '''[[Locations]]''': outsider camps, outsider resource huts * '''Usable by''': outsiders; natives with ''[[outsider knowledge]]'' Gives the coordinate location of your character when a signal is available in a non-dense, non-enclosed area. Coordinates are in the form [-70.366,+26.443], where the first number is the X coordinate (longitude) and the second is the Y coordinate (latitude). Moving a single square represents a change in coordinate in that direction of 0.001. [-70.366,+26.443] is considered the same as 26.443N 70.366W (check out the location with [http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z=5&ll=26.443,-70.366&spn=22.710548,28.125 Google Maps]) On 2007-11-30, GPS units were changed to hold a battery charge. Units found by searching carry a random charge. Units bought from a trader are always full at 100% charge if they were switched off when bought and 99% if they were switched on. Switching on a unit consumes 2% of the charge, presumably expending energy to acquire the satellite signal; switching off does not consume any charge. Units lose 1% of their charge every 12 hours when on, therefore it is advantageous to switch them off only for periods of 24 hours or more. It is not possible to charge a unit, but units with 0% charge can be sold to a trader. === Piece of driftwood === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $70 * '''[[Locations]]''': beach, dunes, boatyard A [[signpost]] can be built out of two pieces of driftwood. === Sharpening stone === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $50 * '''[[Locations]]''': all camps Clicking on it will sharpen either a blunt machete, blunt cutlass, blunt knife, or blunt dagger from your inventory. === Shovel === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': ? * '''[[Locations]]''': all camps Allows digging (for those without the digging skill) or digging of deeper holes (for those with the digging skill). === Backpack === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $1200 * '''[[Locations]]''': all camps Adds 30 spaces to inventory. Does not stack. === Jolly/ghastly jack o'lantern === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $? Made by carving a pumpkin. It can be used to scare away ghosts during Halloween. Single use only. ===Easter Egg=== Found around Easter each year. Clicking on them will cause them to crack. In 3 recorded cases, 2 eggs were found empty (giving the message "You crack open the egg but are disappointed as there's nothing inside.") and one egg contained a gold coin ("You crack open the egg and find a gold coin inside. Congratulations!"). * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $? * '''[[Locations]]''': jungle == Currency == === Gem === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $1000 * '''[[Locations]]''': ruins, hold (shipwreck) Ten times more valuable than gold at normal prices. Unlike gold, gems require inventory space. === Gold coin === * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $100 * '''[[Locations]]''': camps, jungle, beach Being the currency of the island, gold coins are the only items to require no inventory space, and up to 100 can be given to any player in the same location via the "Give" button. Clicking on a gold coin in one's inventory flips it and gives "heads" or "tails" as a result: "You toss a gold coin into the air and catch it. It shows heads." == Charms and Amulets == Charms are automatically listed in your character profile, and may or may not give an advantage to gameplay. Examining one gives the message: "The [item] doesn't appear to actually do anything. Maybe just carrying it is sufficient if you believe in its power." There are rumors that charms have both a positive and a negative effect, but they have not been verified. {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; border: solid 1px #ccc; border-collapse: collapse" |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !colspan="5"|Charms and Amulets |-bgcolor="#0095B6" !Name !!

Burying the egg can prevent hatcing; the one-week period continues after the egg is unburied. The eggs are quite hard to hold - playing with them a couple of times will eventually lead to a drop of the egg, which then disappears from the inventory. * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $? * '''[[Locations]]''': mountain path ==Conch shell== The conch shell is a special item in Shartak. There is only one on the island making it a prized possession, one for which many players will not hesitate to kill in order to get it. The conch also has special properties. Blowing it will give the user a variable amount of XP, which is believed to depend on the number of people nearby. However, the sound will travel several squares alerting every user in the vicinity. The conch appears in the 5x5 map, so it is immediately obvious who the holder of the conch is, if you get close enough to him/her. Killing the character holding the conch transfers possession of the conch to the killer. The conch can be sold to a trader for a significant amount of gold coins, but cannot be bought. Once sold it will appear randomly on a beach square. * '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $10,000 * '''[[Locations]]''': beach * '''Last known holder''': [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=15724 Victor Denley] ==Broken knife (discarded)== Searching in certain locations, such as water or swamp, gives the message, "You find a broken knife, which you discard. It seems there is nothing to be found here." Receiving this message indicates that no items can be found in this particular location at all. [[Category:Glossary]]
