You do know that if there are 2 or more merchants in the same room, you use their name right? i.e.

Buy <insert item> Halil <or merchant name>

Works the same way with list too.

list <merchant name>

:P

Doh, nevermind, didn't see you had typed buy bolt halil, sorry :P

Of course. Class diversity. It's a good thing. This argument has been made a thousand times and the response is always "why not give class XXX planeshift too? Obviously _that's_ not unbalancing."

Never did understand the reasoning about shaman not getting pshift. Is that spell so unbalancing as to not give it to us?

Was curious how a totem is picked. Is it when I get the final item during the quest to recieve a totem (meaning that there are many choices but I don't know which one is what and is random when I decide to pick an item), or is it a random chance when I first bind the totem to me?

Elementalists are already overpowered. They should be downgraded if anything. They have no reason for relocate or PWB, and lose globe too. There is no reason at all to give them spellcasting mobs. If you want spellcasting mobs, play necro then, that's why they are there.
