Items

Items are equipable objects found in-game such as horns, weapons and armour, belts, collars and much more. Cosmetic items provide no bonuses to the player, but act as a visual upgrade.

Items may also be called Drops.

A player can equip a maximum of 10 items at any given time, and store up to 300 items (warning; this maximum capacity is shared with currency stones, so this amount may seem large but is, in fact, not) in their Stash.

Many items also provide the player with health or damage bonuses and these are listed as you highlight an item's name in your inventory, as well as displaying the update to your health and damage in the chat when you equip and unequip an item.

Certain types of items, such as swords and armour, can only be equipped one at a time. So, for example, you can equip an Ancient Sword but you can not equip an Ancient Sword *and* a Forged Iron Sword, until you unequip the Ancient Sword. This is to avoid abusing the item bonuses that they offer- so choose your loadout carefully!

If you have an item you don't want anymore you can give it away to another player, try to find a NPC Collector who will buy it or simply drop it on the ground. Dropped items despawn for the player when they leave that map so be sure you want to get rid of it before dropping it!

## How do I find Items?

Items are very easy to start finding. Simply hunting animals, completing quests and trading with both players and Shop NPCs can reward you with items.

Some items are considered very rare and are most likely drops from bosses or other rare creatures and thus more valuable to other players seeking to use them. You may have to offer a few items, or some other rare item, if the person you're trading with has a rare item!

## Buying and Selling Items

NPCs marked 'Trader' and 'Collector' will buy and sell certain items from you- but not all.

**Traders** will sell you items from their own inventory, for currency stones- normally relevant to the realm you're currently in.

**Collectors** will buy some items off you from *your* inventory, for currency stones or other items. Usually they will buy hunted materials such as furs and pelts.

Traders and Collectors, alongside Shamans (ability traders) and Tamers (pet traders) can be found in the main hub worlds of each Realm, but some wandering traders may also be found in various other maps, caves and realms.

## Bug Reports

### Unable to pick up an item.

Some items were rigged poorly and when placed on the ground, they are difficult or even impossible to pick up. Most items were fixed with the new release of G:S but if you come across an item you can not pick up, please report it in *#help* on the Discord or *#bug-reports* if you're an Alpha Tester.

Another possibility is that the item has dropped outside the map bounds. The map's have an invisible wall before the actual edge of the map that the player can not run through, but prey can. It's a bug with prey being able to ignore the walls, not the item itself. If this happens please target the item so the item's name is visible, take a screenshot and open a ticket in *#open-a-ticket* in the Discord.

### Item missing Texture, .mesh or .skeleton

If you get an error and crash from a missing .mesh or .skeleton file, or the item is blank (white) please submit a screenshot or detail the experience with the item's name and post in either *#help* in Discord or *#open-a-ticket* in the Discord if you are unable to play due to constant crashing.
