soulbound pvp items

[Ven-elexver1]

aye one know how to soul bind a item? Long Long Ago eq pvp had a soulbind item on players looked like a coin you could loot it from the players once you had pk-ed them. The item cant bee seen or Droped by the player . but once he is dead the item is on his corpse and others may loot it . I would like to set a npc quest that could take the coins and players may buy items from said ncp . but sound like it will take more know how than i have at this point .

I do not know exact answer to this, BUT there is a special item with a tag called "NO TRANSFER"

I gave this item to myself in game, and this item always stays on your char - you cannot even put it into bank.

This could be the special item type you looking for.
This tag can be set by editing item table properties, in a field called "notransfer"

The item that you drop when PK'd isn't actually stored on your character, it's just added to your lootable corpse when killed. I believe the item ID for it is defined in either the variables or rule_values table in the database.

If I'm understanding correctly, you're basically trying to find a way to use that lootable item as a form of currency (or possibly a quest hand-in) to get items, correct? If so, it would actually be really easy to do with a few custom items and a quest to handle turn-ins.

If you know what you're looking to do, we might be able to help with some ideas on how to accomplish it.

The item that is dropped in PvP is defined in the variables table as PvPreward:
Allows players to loot items off a player corpse in pvp | 0 - no items | 1 - a single item | 2 - all items | 3 - item specified in PvPreward |

So, say you have Item ID 12345 (as an example) that you want to be dropped when you kill someone in PvP. You would then change the value for PvPreward in variables to 12345.

Player corpse item data is stored in the data BLOB of the player_corpses table.
