Second, there is the old legend about the demonbunny named Hugo, which is a part of the Paradox Tower Quest. Third, the NPC Todd in Thais calls himself "Hugo" when asking about his name. Additionally, both Bozo and Zebron are said to have cousins named Hugo.

 * One gold coin is 0.1 oz, or 2.8 grams. With the present worth of gold, one GP is about 60€, 90US$ or 45£. On unrelated note, the same amount of platinum "only" costs about 110€/175$/90£.

Frozen Starlight



 * The star hanging on the Elven Amulet, looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.
 * The old shot effect of the Wand of Vortex looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.
 * The eye of the Parahons looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.

Shields

 * The crown on the Castle Shield appears to be the same as the one on the Purple Tome.

 * The Dragonbone Staff is a kind of enchanted like weapon but it does not hit like an enchanted weapon.


 * There was a short period directly after Update 8.0 when Hunting Spears already changed into stackable Distance Weapons and were dropped by Lizard Sentinels in large ammounts (up to eight of them at once!). In this period you could sell them to Brengus in Port Hope for the old price of 250 gold and make a lot of money while hunting Lizard Sentinels.

Male and Female sets

 * The Crown Set is a very common set for medium level players. It includes Crown Helmet, Armor, Shield and Legs. The female version of this set (without legs) is called Amazon Set with identical stats, although very hard to obtain. This set includes Amazon Helmet, Armor and Shield.


 * Golden Legs, Armor, and Helmet also seem to be lighter than most their counterparts, however Golden Boots appear to be the heaviest boots in the game, including the extremely heavy Steel Boots. They're so heavy in fact, they weigh the exact same amount as the Golden Helmet.


 * Golden Armor's weight is 80 ounces, which equals 2240 grams, although, gold is very heavy, much heavier than Iron, material that might be used on other heavier Tibian Armors!

Element Protection
(20%)+(80%)≠ 100%!
 * If you wear any Elemental Set, the amount of damage absorbed won't be equal to the sum of both percentages. For example, if you wear a Stone Skin Amulet and a Might Ring, you won't absorb 100% of the damage, you will only absorb 97,5% of damage!

 * Capes look like the cape on a Gamemaster.


 * The staff of the Female Beggar Outfit is always at character's right hand. also, when you turns to the right, the staff changes to the left hand. If it doesn't, the staff would be in front of the character's face. This is also the same by the outfit of Brotherhood of bones male addon and the Male and female Norseman outfit.


 * On the male side, there are 5 sword addons, but only 2 axe addons. The Scythe and Wooden stake are debatable. However, in tibia Scythes are considered to be "club" weapons. The wooden stake just doesn't quite seem worthy of sword status.


 * The feather on the hat of the Citizen outfit also change from left side an right side. Also, the feather of the male addon is bigger than the feather on the female addon.


 * The Pirate Outfits [[Image:Outfit Pirate Female Addon 1.gif]][[Image:Outfit Pirate Male Addon 1.gif]] has the sprite of the sabre [[Image:Sabre.gif]], but it's more curved like [[Image:Sabre (Old).gif]].


 * As said, there are 5 sword addons and 2 axe addons. Although there are no club addons, even if the Scythe is said to be a "club" weapon.


 * Although gamemasters have new outfit, the Support section at Tibia.com still have old ones.
