macAilpin: Do I remember correctly that you need to sell the first Ankheg shell to the blacksmith, then the second Ankheg shell can be sold for the Armour--- and this allows you to sell subsequent shells to the Blacksmith. But if you sell the first one, then that shuts off further sales and only a guy in Baldurs Gate (City) will buy the shells? I admit I going from memory here. A failing memory perhaps.

Sorry for failing to put Ankheg in the tag line.

Hickory: You just need the shell in your inventory and haggle for him to make the armour -- *don't* sell it to him.

macAilpin: But once you get the armor, he will continue to purchase the shells?

Hickory: I believe so (been a long time). If he doesn't, Fenten in Baldur's Gate buys them. Officer Vai *might* buy them, since she is marked as buying 'miscellany'. Trivia: Officer Vai has the least depreciation of all shops in the game. Just NEVER talk to her, after giving her the first lot, without a bandit scalp in your inventory, otherwise she disappears back to Baldur's Gate.

Bookwyrm627: I think he stops buying them after a certain period of time, or perhaps after you agree to have him make the armor.

macAilpin: I started a new game with a multi fighter/mage. I'll test it when I get back to that point. Thanks.macAilpin: I'll test which. thanks
