From Saturday the 26th up to and including Sunday the 10th, the immortals will be manually switching permanent clan equipment into their base items.
You will be able to recognize permanent clan equipment by their strange appearance:
a BAD THING that was a ??? - TURN IT IN
Not all immortals will be exchanging clan equpiment all the time. When someone is available to do these switches, you will be able to recognize them by their title, i.e.:
Elysia is exchanging clan equipment
I've posted this up a few days beforehand so you can adjust your schedules if need be, and alert people who also might have these items.
It's hard to judge at this point how much clanequipment there still is, and how many people will want to exchange these. It may be possible that you may have to wait a while if you contact an immortal, but please understand we'll be trying our best to get things done.
After this period, there will be no more exchanges, so get your items swapped while you can!
