Item Acquirement Reminder

When viewing your items, whether it is from the bazaar, backpack, bank, etc., it should tell you how you acquired that item. For example, if you got Hat A from Rattlebones, it would say "dropped by Rattlebones" (it could also list other ways to get it and not just the way you acquired it, but that would just be an added bonus).

One way this update would be useful is because I avoid selling items that are what I call "collector's items", which include crown items and items from major bosses or skeleton bosses, among other things. This way, I don't have to constantly reference Wizard101 Central whenever I know I've gained multiple, and often many, collector's items.

I don't think there's a need for this at all.

If we already have one way to check which boss dropped that item and whatever then why add another way?

Yeah, it'll be faster.

Not worth it to me.

It usually takes around an hour when I have to check Wizard101 Central while selling at the Bazaar. When I don't need to check Central, it takes around 5 minutes.

Also, it's not inconvenient in any way, so why not implement it? Just because some people wouldn't use it doesn't mean they have to force everybody else not to use it.

Let's say you've got $2,000 in your pocket right now. Would you be willing to put it towards programming this function?

Lol.

Little question, ever heard of opinion? Just wondering.

I was just speaking MY opinion. Doesn't mean it's the truth.

It's not really going to cost any money, just time.

They could also download the Wizard101 Central database and include a search engine for it in-game.

I was just responding, that's all. If you felt attacked, I apologize.

How much time?

Now multiply that by the hourly wage of the employees working on it.

Now it costs money.

Would you spend that much money on it if you had it?
