	Probably best for consistencies sake to have all the base items either expire or not as last read you had a mix. i.e. Robes expire but Ranke armour doesn't? Also the 'Warrior' armour being worse than silvered armour for casting makes it fairly unappealing, given it's not particularly high prot values either. But thats more looking at it as a player.

			Hi Bernard,<br>
	Some items like the Blackend Ranke Armour have been around for 8+ years with no real issues, so don't need an expiry date. Other items may have issue so its a 'exit plan' if needed as discussed above.

			Hi Bernard,<br>

			Re: Expiry dates.
			You maybe correct, but the idea at this point is to have 5 year expiry dates so that any large errors will go away if not properly fixed / addressed. I fully expect that in 4 years time the Mages of Freetown will issue a free item which will stop most/all fixed items from expiring if needed.
