Talk: Philosopher's Stone

Easter Egg Reference?

How is this not a reference to the anime 'Full Metal Alchemist'? A stone which is required for alchemical transmutation, just as depicted in the anime/manga. Unless the the idea of the stone is a common theme; I'm sure the stone is a reference to FMA.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by DrTheKay (talk · contr).

Your narrow mindedness says that this is a sure reference? This is indeed a common theme.--SWM2448 22:51, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

You call me narrow-minded even though I said that I could be wrong? Pretty hypocritcal of you in the most pathetic way sandwichman.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by DrTheKay (talk · contr).

No need for name-calling. His statement is based solely on your claims. Xavius, the Satyr Lord 19:48, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Maybe not narrowminded, but your comment was a tad bit naive... Alchemy, and the myths legends and beliefs surrounding alchemy, and philosopher's stone predate Full Metal Alchemist by many centuries. That show just built on old ideas. You could have saved yourself some embarrasment by looking up that info for yourself. Wikipedia has a good articles on this subject.

However, SWM could have been a bit more tactful in his post.Baggins (talk) 19:58, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

This item requires 225 to create it but only 200 to equip it and it is BOP. The level reduction to 200 in 2.4.3 seems pretty pointless.
