Limits

The most powerful artefacts in Dreamland are usually limited -- they exist only in a restricted quantity. For example, if a magical item has a limit of 1 and some lucky adventurer has already acquired it -- that item will not appear in the world again. Not until the owner parts with it -- willingly, or, hehe, by force.

Limited items disappear after two real-time weeks from the moment some player first picks them up. This protects against hoarders and gives everyone an equal chance to enjoy a good item. For PK-protected members of the Commune of Children of Flowers, limits decay very fast -- literally within a few hours.

On mobs, on the ground, or in safe rooms, limits crumble much faster, so stashing them with golems or hiding them away in a snug corner won't work either. Limits cannot be placed inside bags or any other containers, and they do not sink in water.

Don't forget that limited items are not retained if your character is more than 20 levels above the artefact's level or more than three below it! For example, a level-40 limit will crumble in your hands the moment you reach level 61. Unconfirmed characters have not been approved by the gods and cannot own limited items.
