Unided Bob's Mythics From Before Gavel Cannot Be Identified

You can't ID them if they're still unIDed, this is caused by the code that prevents reidentifying items you buy pre-IDed from NPCs.

Reasons this is a big issue:
- People who haven't identified their Bob's Mythic because they haven't used their pre-Gavel classes since the update can't identify the item now.
- Old players coming back after a long time might quit when they see that they can't use their best weapon.

Ways to fix:
- Change identifier's code to check if an item is unidentified, and if it is, skip checking if it's an item purchased pre-identified.
- Add a converter merchant who buys unidentified Bob's Mythics and sells the identified version of same type of weapon. If this was added it would be a good idea to add a trade for sharpness-enchanted weapons as well as weapons with without enchantments since pretty much everyone put sharpness II on their Bob's Mythic pre-Gavel.

 

not quite sure but maybe this could be a bug report or general suggestion since the trader doesn't already exist in the game

 

This should also be done with pre-gavel set armor

 

I don't have a github account and this felt more like feedback on the fact that it's bugged than a suggestion.
Also there's no way anyone would notice it in the graveyard that is General Suggestions.

 

@_Star you aren't the only one!!

 

Yup, same issue here. With many items including my Bob's Mythic Bow Dx

 

I got this with my lv 25 gear I had pre gavel lol.

+1

 

I'm going to bump this before it becomes a necro since it was never addressed and we have a hot new Bug tag.

 

try reporting this in github
