(Question) been gone for awhile....just looted a IDOC last night and....

[Badseed]

Got a few goodies Anyways, I also got 3 barrels....one says Large aquarium (North) Weight: 2 stones, contains 0 items......the 2nd barrel is a Ornate Elven Chest (south) Weight: 2 stones, contains 0 items.....and the 3rd is a Elven Wash Basin (south) Weight: 2 stones, contains 0 items.....

They look like normal barrels, just when you hover them to read the name it don't say "barrel" says "Large Aquarium" and when you try to open them you get the placement cursor.....when you place them you do get the correct item listed in place of "barrel" and after placed, use a axe on them and they return to the barrel appearance.


Anyone have any Idea where these came from or how they came to be like this?
do they hold any value to Item collectors?

There have been many changes in game, this being one of them. You can also check out the link for publish 80

I have copied over the section for you on the barrels.


Moving Barrels

It is now possible to re-deed container house add-ons

• If the container is not locked down or secured:
  • The contents are dumped to the floor
  • The add-on returns to normal deed form
• If the container is locked down or secured:
  • The add-on becomes a barrel instead of a deed
  • The contents of the add-on container(s) are stored inside the barrel
  • The barrel is never blessed
  • The barrel cannot be opened
  • Items be added to/removed from/used while inside the barrel
  • The barrel acts like an add-on deed
  • When the add-on is placed from the barrel, the contents are restored

Elder gazer room was the bomb back in the day. Yes Dev I am ranting a little bit because something's were better back in the day. Don't worry if I see Uriah later at the bank I will shove him off his ethy and I will feel better for it.
