Bug: Destroyed Essances tagged incorrectly and overvalued

Issue: The value of the DESTROYED essences granted by the undead in shoreline ruins is over the top and there are two tags attributed to them which are invalid
Server Name:Test
Character Name: Sophestra
Characters Level: 21 ( at the time if this reporting)
Location (Chunk): Shoreline ruins (to acquire essences) any general vendor to sell them
Date: 6/2 at the time of this reporting
Approximate Time: 06:28 at the time of this reporting

Steps to reproduce:

1.) go to the ruined tower or the beacon at shoreline ruins
-- if you are unfamiliar with the locations, you can get them by taking the URT mission "The Undead Answer" i lost the /loc with my first bug report

2.) Kill multiple undead at either or both locations
--- You are looking for the "Destroyed essence of XXXX" where XXXX is the creature you were fighting. It should be easy as destroyed essences are approx a 97% drop

3.) Take these essences to a general vendor

Observed results: at this time these essences are labeled "No sell" and "Quest" and they are FAR over valued (values of current stacks on hand listed below).

Expected Results:
The tags need to be removed (as they are invalid - there is no quest that requires them and the no sell seems to be there to keep people from exploiting the broken value of vendor trash) and the value of the essences need to be brought in line with more common vendor trash from creatures of comparable levels

Additional information:

Current essences on hand and their value when presented to a vendor are as follows:
  • Destroyed Deckhands Essence - stack of 13 - 0 value (was the specific example in my first bug report)
  • Destroyed Zealots Essence - Stack of 5 - 0 value - (was the specific example in my second bug report)
  • Destroyed Acolytes Essence - Stack of 15 - 12g 0s 0c
  • Destroyed Boneslicers Essence - Stack of 4 - 3g 20s 0c
  • Destroyed Magus Essence- Stack of 15 - 12g 0s 0c
  • Destroyed Mariners Essence - Stack of 10 - 8g 0s 0c
  • Destroyed Zombie's Essence - Stack of 8 - 6g 40s 0c

If the current rate of vendor trash for level 20 mobs is 8s a piece than the essences are in line with the current value of vendor trash and the tags should be removed.

If 8s for level 20 mob is to much for vendor trash, then the value of the essences should be brought down and the tags removed.

If there is concern over an exploitable cash supply and the in game economy, then the drop rate of the essences that are actually needed for the quest (intact essences) should be changed so that these destroyed ones drop less and therefore have less of an impact on the in game economy. THIS IS THE PREFERRED SOLUTION
