− | Equipping the parrot egg in the trinket slot causes a parrot to spawn and follow the player around. While in combat it occasionally finds gold coins when slaying monsters. The egg can be reforged using an [[Anvil]], changing the level of parrot from 1 to 4. The chance of enemies dropping gold coins ranges from low chance at level 1 to very high chance at level 4. The gold coins come in multiples of {{price|250}} and multiple coins can drop from a single enemy. | + | Equipping the parrot egg in the trinket slot causes a parrot to spawn and follow the player around.
