    I've never hunted this many Ankheg but they give nice exp and the money they give at the Thunderhammer Smithy for a shell ain't too bad. Eitherway, I've apparently given the guy more shells than he can hold and he started dropping them on the floor. Because he stands directly on them I cannot loot them to just sell them again (Not that I would, but it's still a bug obviously).

    Maybe the shells should just disapear after he takes them, he does mention to make an armor out of it to sell it for loads of gold, and when you ask him to make an armor for you he tells how they should be properly dried before ten days are passt or they rot. So there's no sense in him keeping them in his bag eitherway!

    Greets (:

    As for the re-looting of the shells he stands on – have you tried to visit Taerom’s workshop at night? ;)

    After farming some ankheg earlier and bringing back 5 shells at a time to sell to Taerum, he eventually (I think after about 3 or 4 loads) began dropping the shells I sold to him immediately on the ground under him. This meant I could pick them up again and sell them again to gain infinite money. Little exploit that could be fixed.

    I find myself chiding myself for making this known, but it's probably in the best interest of game balance that I do. ^_~ While selling Ankheg shells to Taerom, I noticed that the shells appeared underneath him. Through painstaking pixel hunting I was able to pick all my shells back up & resell them to him. I was able to do this perhaps 3x at a crack, resulting in well over 10,000gp in 'bonus' gold. Sigh... this should prolly be fixed. :D

    It should be fixed just to keep the game clutter free. If people want to cheat/exploit they will just use the console to add gold.

    um ok yea you can get gold by doing this.... um i tried to get the armor by giving him a lot gold for the special ankheg armor... it doesnt work though because of a bug... in the original baldurs gate you get full plate or plate mail that does not weigh much... this can be the best armor in the game especially if you play with characters that have low strength and can wear heavy armor.
