With all these new icons, did Joia's ring, Perdue's sword, the Colquetle amulet, etc. get new ones?

So that we don't leave them to rot on the bodies or sell them to vendors?

Actually, I already know the Colquetle's Family Amulet did not, I'm just wondering about the others.

    From what I can remember, Perdue's Sword did not.

    There's no new icons.

    Joia's don't really need one, it stands out quite nice anyway.
    Perdue's Sword is in dire need of a new icon though. Can't remember the other items, some probably needs something to distinguish them from the normal trash items.

    The Colquetle Amulet can't be found anymore, as I already wrote in another thread about the matter.

    It looks like you discovered it rot. That happens. :/ Not good design, but not a bug, either.

    I've looted it in both of my games so far.

    I don't think it was possible to find the Colquetle Amulet until EE :)

    Eh? I did that quest quite recently, and was delighted to discover that you can get either +1 or -1 reputation for it, depending on your answers.
    I'm not sure if it was pre-patch or post-patch, though.

    Perdue's sword still looks like a normal short sword - but given that you were asked to find a sword stolen by a gnoll, and there's only one gnoll in the world carrying a shortsword in addition to standard issue gnoll halberd, it's hard to mistake it for anything else. And it's description and mouse-over text both say 'Perdue's sword', so that's a massive hint too. Considering that short swords sell for something like 4 gps or less, I don't think many players collect them to sell them in bulk, and that's the only way I think you could make a mistake of selling it.
    Personally, I think it's neat BG has some very common, mundane items that are unique only because they have sentimental value for their owners, like Jola's ring, murdered family's jewelry or dead friend's dagger. It adds a flavor to already delicious game. :)

    It was unfinished in the original game. The unique amulet and the rewards were added in patch 2014.

    If you know where they are, you won't miss them. I never saw another Gnoll dropping a short sword, so I never confused it. For Joia's ring, well, I have to say that I sometimes lost it. And I didn't knew anything about the other amulet, and I never entered to that house in Beregost :P
