Getting my old account back!

Just found out that I can recover my old account from 20 years ago. So curious what I will find, would there be an extreme rare antique that would make me rich instantly? Would the gold in my bank accumulated so much interest that would blow up my bank box? I recall stashing a bunch of valuables back then, which were shining plate armors!

Ok, even if I dont find any Picasso, would I at least get some veteran rewards?

you have to pay monthly to get vet rewards but you might have some on your account already

Gold wouldn't have accumulated interest, in fact gold wise the account is probably very low. Finding some old valuable rare or pet is where you might strike rich though, welcome back :)

Vet rewards sell for a lot.

What you thought was valuable back then may not be now. Unless you have a server birth or an EM drop.

Your Stable would be the best chance of hitting the lottery.

Nightmares, White Wyrms, Dreadmares, Bake Kitsunes, Bane Dragons.

Old armor *can* be valuable, depending on what it is.

What many returning veterans think is valuable many times is not. For example, Ranger Armor was fun to collect back then but isn't worth much now.

Phoenix Armor, however, has skyrocketed in value.

Also, any armor with a bracketed [Exceptional] in in the title it is worth money, and even more so if part of a completed set.

And don't forget old double (blessed) goodies have risen greatly in value as well.


And @Pawain brought up a good point - many of the pets from 20+ years ago had stats not seen in a long time. They can be extremely valuable. Check your stables.

if you collected anything back then, colored ingot that just say ingots, slime dyed items, some quest items we can't keep now. like the bride picture, bowl of water. spend time. yellow named items. shipwreck items all in the top name. metal boxes, strong boxes. some demon bone armour. sooo much stuff!

Deeded addons that say... Deed on the end. and don't forget things that say "sewn by" "made by" 'forged by" ...they all say "crafted by" now.

unfortunately there is nothing left in the account, I had 3 characters before can't find them on any shard, not sure what happened. Oh well, so much for my getting rich overnight dream, back to grinding.

How many months old does it say they are

The account age is 6 years old. I had GM swordsman, mage and thief before, seems like they were deleted.
What shard? If you have a question ,make a thread and ask it. Since you were just GM, you will be back to that point quick. Also you will find new templates that you want to increase those skills also. You have an adventure ahead of you.
