Game Mechanics: Corpses should poof in 24 hours

[Treats]

Heres what I found -- should be pretty close to correct

Decay offline timer use same logic as 24h/7 day (online * 7)

Resurrection Timers

Level 1 - 30 minute resurrection timer
Level 2-4 - 2 hour resurrection timer
Level 5+ - 3 hour resurrection timer
Duel Corpse - 10 minute resurrection timer
Empty Corpse - Same as above

Decay Timers

Level 1 - 30 minute online/(30 minute * 7) offline decay timer
Level 2-4 - 2 hour online/(2 hour * 7) offline decay timer
Level 5+ - 24 hour online/(24 hour * 7) offline decay timer
Empty Corpse - 3 hour online/(3 hour * 7) offline decay timer
Duel Corpse - Same as above

Resurrection and Decay Timers will count down as if you are online if you are on a different character on the same account, the timer is governed by the account ID not the character ID

If we could couple this would MQing Sky Quests, that would be great. Because Alts are 80% of the corpses in PoSky, since you can't have someone else loot a no drop piece and MQ it to your alt here.

But it looks like they are working on the finishing touches of Velious. So Id hold your breath for a bit on this.

My client, Key Master, is in dire financial straights concerning the exploitation of the key corpse system currently used by the population of Norrath. He demands an immediate cease and desist to this vile practice. This continued exploitation deprives Key Master of his livelihood.

Objection! If District Attorney Cucumbers hadn't made the case to turn the Key Master into an outright price gouger and war profiteer this would be a non issue Mr. Ele.

I lol'd really hard.

But classic sky where no one on your raid has keys would be neat...

Doesn't really affect people who have all their characters on separate accounts - could just keep your Sky toon logged out for < 24 hours during the week.

Slight exageration there. I started EQ in July of '99, nearly 4 months after launch, and /consent looting lasted at least two months after I started. That said, it's a pretty terrible idea and the six-ish months it was in the game are one of several testaments to how amazingly clueless Verant could be.

you guys are going off topic, and our timeline already beat that consent style.
