The grey umbrella is 2 points for charm but the silver handled cane is worth 5. I already have one cane but I was wondering if you could have two silver handled canes or if your only allowed one. I just to see if any one knew before I tried it.

It was the locker that allowed one to hold two of something. If you were holding a very expensive perfume, for example, and tried to buy another one, you couldn't. But if you set one in the locker, bought another one, and then got the first one out of the locker, you could hold two. It was the locker that let people get around the rule about holding two of something, and now that Ben has fixed this there should not be any way at all to do it anymore. So if anyone is still holding two of something, it is because they used the lockers to do it before the change was made and have not put the items away again since.

I HAD to try it after that! You can't take a second item if you are already holding one like it - not as loot OR from an agency locker. If you try from a locker it will just swap back the first one. (otherwise, if you are taking different kinds of items it juggles - new item to one hand, older to other hand, oldest to locker).

Isn't it great that we can all juggle now, though?

And it didn't even cost any skill points to learn!
