Since weary merchants and slobbering trolloc have traditionally always required an update to their mobol whenever a clan changed its trinket, we have upgraded their mobol to make it require less maintenance. Part of this change entails the following:
-weary merchants are now stapled to the ground and will no longer wander.
-weary merchants will now sell the parry kit, in addition to the abs eq and dodge eq they were already selling.
