The way I remember it, there was only a zone echo of the item being auctioned and you had to be in the room of the auctioneer to participate.

On on unmentionable mud, they had an auction hall. It had a mob that you would hand an item to, and it would auction the item, keeping 10% of the proceeds, giving item to the winning bidder and deducting the appropriate amount from their bank account. I think there was an auction channel that would ...

Fireball is in the elementalist fourth circle... the first three have: earth darts (earth) ice spear (water) air blast (air) So... fireball being an elemental spell is not out of the question.

Generally, is there a preferred class for the leader? Or do leaders simply work around the class they are?
