Hmm...
Normally I wouldn\'t answer on ideas-wanted post, but I came up with a thought when reading this one..

The idea presented above sounds a bit artificial, but maybe sacrificing same eq to race shrine a number of times could give a small chance that gods would grant you a favor and give you that piece of eq with your name on it.

If people would use this it certainly would take eq out of the game. And eq without names would be still valuable to lower level players as you could buy the eq you desire to own and try your luck with the gods.

I am not entirely aware on how sacrificing work currently, but I assume there is some kind of limit on how much you can/should sacrifice stuff during one boot (or any other given time frame). If there isn\'t then maybe there should be.
