There are actually 234 total, but there are duplicates -- multiple instances of "Buckler" and "Heavy Boots" and other cheap items -- which are used to adjust the frequency and rarity of several different items. So a quick and possibly erroneous count of the duplicates gets me a total of 209 *unique* items. I won't swear to it, though.

Still, I only have 200 items listed right now (counting the diadem) and the 202 I am coming up with is a little too far off of 209 for my liking... I suppose you could have miscalculated, as you have said, but I worry that I missed a low level item by seeing it so much that I just assumed that I had it on my list. Hmm.

Don, what you need to do is sort your list somehow, e.g. alphabetically by name, so that you can tell instantly whether an item you encounter is on the list. You could also create a dozen or so game characters, and give them collectively one of each item. Each character can hold 6 equipped items and 9 others, so two full teams is more than enough to hold the projected 209 items. Then diligently check everything you find. Perhaps trolling the Shop at Perinn or Teralt would be the best way to make sure you've encountered all the low-level items.

Just a thought.

Actually, I'm not sure I've had the Amulet. I don't know which it is, and I never remember sale prices.
