Not in a stack

Nobody has picked this yet, which is also why it sits where it does in the catalog ordering. It is a statement about our shelves rather than about the software.

Keep looking

Skills are one crate of 325,949. Ordering is by how many stacks a row turns up in, so the top of any crate is what has actually been picked rather than what has the most stars.
