No... When I was buying alchs for 99 mage, I would lose ~56gp per mage long, instead of the ~84 gp per yew long. This was a week or two before the trade update. I would've bought all mage longs, but since yews were cheaper I could buy more to stock up on. Anyways, yes there is demand for mage longs.
Bug abuse doesn't have to give you an advantage. As long as you use a bug over and over again, it can be considered bug abuse. But I don't think it's a bug anyways.
It seems purposefully coded-in to me. Probably to stimulate hype, since alot of people were complaining that it was dying down. Summoning FTW, a friend just did two Karamthulhus at once! *imagines inventory full of them*
Mike (Harpoon) found that first tbh. And that's awsome cause my fav summon creature is that sinister looking squid. Does it really matter? He didn't claim to be first :P.
Probably a teaser, or a leak, but you never know. Upon dying with a karamthulhu and a fishbowl, it's "summoned" and walks around for 30 seconds then disappears. Credit from: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?p=5611266
OMG, it works. Just tried in Lumby and freaked some people out. Just did it 3 times now XD. Running low on karamthulhu and liquids. [hide=Screenshots] [/hide]
