Funniest Death Here

[Sirbanmelotz]

Got rezd right in the middle of the path leading to the ent to DC, in Unrest. Said thanks to the cleric as she gated away. Im an ench btw. As soon as the high elf vanished away, i saw a 5 letter word in all caps that terrified me. It said TRAIN!

With rez effects on, i was naturally rooted due to my weight and immediatly died to a horde of skeletons :)

What is your best death?

[stormiejs]

When I first started playing EverQuest in classic I was running through Karanas and I had noticed a Werewolf. I knew they were rare at the time and I had never seen one before. I tried to train it to someone so they could kill it, but on my way looking for people, another Werewolf had come out of no where and crushed me to death.

I recently got revenge by murdering one yesterday

[Damaja]

One time I was in Everfrost and went LD while running. Well of course I kept running after I LD'd. This was MANY years ago during classic on my Paladin that was a High Elf that I had ran all the way from Gfay to Everfrost and was on my way to Halas to be bound, well I respawn and see I lost my levels. I was so depressed because it was classic back then also and xp was like it is here, HARD to get. Well have no fear this high level Cleric is like ..... "Don't stress it, I will rezz you my friend" Well, this just has me over whelmed with joy because the rezz will restore my level. We run out and find my body at the very top of some random mountain that I had ran up while I was LD.

The nice Cleric rezzes me, sure enough I get my level back. I was stressing it because I was still bound in gfay. He says "Be Safe Friend" and gates away. Sitting on top of the mountain gave a wonderful view of the zone while I rememmed my spells and got my mana back.

Once ready I stood up and started to head out, not thinking as soon as I began to run I fell off the mountain to my death and lost the level once more.







One of those days best forgotten.

oh another PvP related level loss death I remember ......

I was on my Iksar Shaman on Vallon Zek Team PvP Server. I had just Dinged level 24, I was so happy .... I loved my Shaman, I named him Sissraak Slimshamy ...anyways, and I zone into Nektulas Forest, because I had my new spells on my Necro that was waiting for my Shaman at Neriak. This was back in the days I item loot and I see this Druid standing in the tunnel going into nek Forest and he was Link Dead.

I am thinking HELL YEA, gonna kill me this Druid and loot an item while there LD. So, I attack the druid, well at the time back then I didnt know that when you LD you toon will fight back and act as an NPC if you LD. This Druid stomped my ass and he was blue con. I remember trying to run to the zone but everytime he would root me and when the root broke he would instantly root me again.

This was the smartest damned LD Druid I ever seen, well I die. But little did I know when this NPC LD Druid guy killed me, I lost xp. I respawn, sit down and go to memming spells and see I lost my level.

I learned that day, leave the LD folks alone and go on about my business.

My best(on live) was one of our first AoW kills, maybe even our first ever. I was buffing like mad and our pullers had cleared most the path. As they called they were rdy to pull, the raid lead asked for mana check, we were all mostly fine, so I tried to canni up as fast as I could...

Not watching my life as the INC msg for AoW was called, I cannied myself to death....

Ive had numerous, being resed into an AOE insta death, reses as well.


Also on live, we had a pretty fun guild, if there was lava in the zone and was asked for a res from a guildy, wed pull them into lava and res them..


As for on this server, I had one similar to yours in guk, I had a corpse sitting from a previous train, Hellun ran through and asked if I wanted a res on the corpse, I of course said yes plz. He rsed me, I offered him a donation(which he didnt take, awesome of Heallun!) pretty much as soon as he ran off, a zol knight spawned on me...res rooted and oom...died again. He told me to consent and drug me all the way to zone to be safe this time, as I was resting to get mana back another train and nearly killed me again, I made is out safe this time tho.

[Overcast]

I was a n00b, I had no idea to *not* bind in the fire giant hall leading up to Naggy.

It was a swell number of 'loop deaths' that night :(

lol

Lucky for me I was a Wiz, I think I managed to get an evac off. It was my first PU raid too.. heh

[Damaja]

Hell, here is another .... yea I am just full of Stupid back then. I was in Najena on my Necro ... something around a level 43 necro. Anyways I was in there back in the OLD DAYS farming stuff, well I was bound at the zoneline (inside) so I could just gate out and camp when need be.

Well, I was super sleepy one night and was camping najena herself and fell asleep at the comp, well somewhere during the night stuff aggroed me and killed me, I repop at the zone line. Sometime during the night someone runs a train to the zone, musta been a bad one cause I was standing there naked, with me asleep at the keyboard.

To end this sad story, hours later when I woke up from my slumber, 6 levels lower I learned a lesson for sure ..... never bind at zonelines inside a dungeon.

[Chodan]

ok so this was here on p1999. i looked up on zam about the zone najena cause i heard it was fantastic exp so i go in there looking for stuff to kill.

mobs at the entrance were green but the goblins later on were blue. well, killed them all and read on zam that there's a pool nearby with an undead froglok guarding it. it said i could kill the froglok but dont go near the door cause najena is in there and will rape me.

well...i went near the door and najena+friends totally destroyed my toon.

i should've listened and to be honest, i dont even know why i went towards the door!

[PhelanKA]

This actually just happened to me recently.

I started getting bored of hunting WC and Oasis around level 18, so I got a wild hair up my butt and decided to branch out a bit. I settled into East Karana very nicely and bound myself on the Gorge/EK zoneline. After finally hitting level 20 in about one morning's work I had amassed a good bit of silk and coins and decided to make my way back to Neriak to unload my goods.

Not being one to go scrounging around for buffs where others are hunting I decided to just hike it back under my own power. I made it to EC with no trouble, sold my goods, and headed finally to Neriak to bank. Since I hadn't been in Nektulos for a good 5-6 levels I wanted to check and see what the halflings in Nektulos forest were conning.

I saw a blue con and squared off against it with no pet. What could go wrong, right? Well I had made the stupid decision of picking the "Leatherfoot Medic". To make a long story short, the bastard chain stunned my dumb ass into oblivion and wiped the forest floor with me and voila! I found myself standing naked as a jaybird all the way back in EK at level 19. Let's just say it wasn't a very happy CR :mad: :o

[thxer]

I love these stories. Sometimes a rough death or CR is frustrating, but it's nice to be playing a real game that will kick your ass for mistakes.

Had a friend on live who fell asleep in his Unrest group and was bound at the zoneline INSIDE... he woke up with a million corpses and missing like 7 levels.

I'm not sure how it even happened but a GM came and stopped the madness after about 5 levels lost and helped me out. I just remember NOOO!!!! LOADING...PLEASE WAIT NOOOOO!!!! LOADING...PLEASE WAIT NOO!!!!!

Drowning to death in two feet of water in Rivervale as a noob back in October because I didn't know to zoom in.

Any Shaman worth their salt has done this at least once. ;)

Back in live, circa 1999, having played all of about 3 days, I hop on my buddies account with his UBER 23rd level Ranger (hehe) for a tool around Crushbone. Feeling quite invulnerable, I run into the castle, and promptly fall into the fountain/pool just inside the front door. Not having a clue how to swim, etc., I promptly drown.

ALMOST as entertaining as then calling my friend and asking him how to go about recovering his toon's corpse!

[Shannacore]

Binding myself in the middle of Solb window camp (under the influence) because Hasbinbad just absolutely NEEEEEDED a port that very second. My group fell apart immediately after and left. I was not aware of this before I gated back.

Pretty sure I lost at least a level.

[Malrubius]

One I heard about. Shortly after Velious came out, a few friends were playing near the Eastern Wastes/Great Divide border and decided to try to find the entrance to Kael. Some high-level caster (I think a Druid) offered to show them the way, so they all auto-followed him.

The druid went the usual way from that point, along the Eastern wall of EW to the top of the canyon leading into Kael, and levitated on down to the IZ.

The problem was that the guys auto-following him were not levitated.

[girth]

My favorite one so far that I've had on p1999:
Bound in OGGOK! Running from HHP to Paw. Right as I zone into EK I get stuck running straight and go right off the cliff... Had to get a port from feerrott to NK, go to EK run up the cliff all the way to HHP, pull corpse up, drag corpse to NK zone line for rez, then make my way to Paw.

Another notable one I had was in Phinny's room. DMF wore off, I had 2 eb items on me. I had about 10 seconds to live. I clicked one eb item. Nothing. 6 seconds to live. click the 2nd. Still nothing.... 2 seconds to live. I yell in vent WTF CLICKIES NOT WORKING EB ME! Dead. Ya come to find out I had an old spells file and clickies weren't showing correct spells and eb wasn't even working or some shit. Wish I knew that before I got a rez. I died again right after my rez, again yelling in vent to EB me. Good times...

[Akame]

My best death I think was actually in Lotro. I soloed all through the Moria expansion, and was bitching to a friend how I could not understand what all the complaints were about Moria being too hard when it first went live. Specifically I was bragging just how I had never died while leveling there at all, and just as I finish typing that I round a corner and plummet to my death in one of the many sheer abyss drops in the zone.

Needless to say I was the laughing stock of Vent for a good 20 minutes.

[astarothel]

Gated to ECT oom and with 6% hp and a poison ticking when I was level 10 or so.
Managed to bandage just enough to have the poison run out with like 8hp.
I bind to the side of the tunnel.
Walked of the side ledge into the tunnel.
Fell for 12 damage.

[Sinlea]

Somehow opening chat with autorun on, autorunning in a circle while my chatbox fills up with awdswwdsdasddwdsadwdasdadw, ending with me raped by the mobs I was pulling. I may or may not have been drinking. :-P

[President]

Binding myself in the middle of Solb window camp (under the influence) because Hasbinbad just absolutely NEEEEEDED a port that very second.

Drunken healer decides to leave group to do a port.

My group fell apart immediately after and left.

Surprise

I was not aware of this before I gated back.

Pretty sure I lost at least a level.

Even more surprising....

Good times from all. My favorite was shortly after Kunark was released. I was low level...maybe mid 20's on my monk, and poor. I paid a substancial amount for a port into the dreadlands and saw that HUGE wizard portal with the 100 story spires for the first time. Without even thinking I ran up to it, realized I could actually scale the spires and decided to run to the top. Gazing out upon eternity it didn't even enter my mind that my Safe Fall skill would not be up to the task and I base jumped right off the top landing for 30,000 points of damage I think? I ended up back at my bind point and sent a very embarassed explanation to the Druid that had ported me over. Luckily he took mercy on me and gave me a ride back lol. I was suprised there wasn't a crater under my corpse.

[Aeolwind]

Accidentally targeting myself and hitting my DT key count as funny?

[AstyTZ]

I've had some canni deaths, most of them unintentional in the Luclin era where I slowed something and got drilled right before canni went off. I've had my share of 32k deaths on auto-run also (Eastern Wastes comes to mind).

I think my most embarassing death though was on Tallon Zek. I was probably low 30's, was fighting someone at the EC/Nek zoneline in Nek, just barely squeaked out the kill. I was at like 3% and virtually oom when I killed them. I sit down to begin healing up, and I get clobbered by a young kodiak that happened to be passing by, and it killed me.

[AstyTZ]

Oh, I had a friend that died to a bug once too. He was a dark elf, was in OT, my other friend, an ogre, was sitting in the bank. The dark elf ran up and over the ogre and promptly fell for 32k and died. We were laughing our asses off. Well except my friend who played the dark elf.

[Ozz]

I could post all day about funny deaths in live, but my funniest death in P99 was when i was bored in EC...Begged shady a few times while i was encumbered and couldnt run very fast...I got splattered on like the third or fourth beg :o

[Damaja]

Somehow opening chat with autorun on, autorunning in a circle while my chatbox fills up with awdswwdsdasddwdsadwdasdadw, ending with me raped by the mobs I was pulling. I may or may not have been drinking. :-P
Just wanted to say I damn near laughed myself to tears at that .... remember that happening to me before also lol good one.

[thegreatyak]

When I first got my faction-raising song, I thought I would use it on the bard song merchant to get a better deal. She resisted and one-shotted me. I was thus killed and lost my level in my own class guild.

[Debos]

Killing in mistmoore HBC spot in that little outside area.
Had our necro die and cleric rezzed.
Named spawns the instant necro is rez and aggros her just as fast as she is rezzed, cleric asks about 20sec later... get rezzed?

Not my death but still pretty funny to watch the whole thing

+1 bro.....+1


I'm not sure how it even happened but a GM came and stopped the madness after about 5 levels lost and helped me out. I just remember NOOO!!!! LOADING...PLEASE WAIT NOOOOO!!!! LOADING...PLEASE WAIT NOO!!!!!

haha, that was EQClassic too....

The ONLY thing that saved me - was being a Wizard. I kept respawning, managed to get Evac memmed and got the hell to the zone line. Begged for a corpse summon... I think I had to pay for a 'few', since I had multiples in there - that was painful.

That was then; this is now: LOL!!!

So last night - I grouped up with a few guys. Hella' fun - only a level 3 SK and already in a group~~

So we are busy kickin' butt in the Qeynos newb area, migrate on to Qeynos Hills. Just chopping the heads off of gnolls. We rule.

Zone into Blackburrow... top level is cleared, we kill a couple spawns and proceed on to Halas. The EF area's good for just mass slaughter - usually.

About 15+ deaths later that night, I finally made it back into BB. The Vengefuls were out - with a Vengeance!!

The funniest part was - I couldn't figure just out where my corpse with my gear was. I started remembering that 'have you seen my corpse' YouTube Video!! lol!! I did find it though, as luck and experience in EQ taught me - I had cash in the bank and an extra sword.

And as usual in classic EQ - no gear complicates things - dramatically. Got killed by so many mobs... Ice Goblins, Gnolls, more Vengefuls and more Vengefuls.

But.. with bad luck, sometimes comes good luck. I did remember to get a bind in Halas - which was bittersweet, because the fantastic Shaman who bound us there, found we were 'broke newbs' - and hooked us up with a nice little pile of coin - I won't mention the name, not that anyone would pester him for anything - but still - thanks again dude ;)

So yeah - a crapload of bad and good luck all in one night. Ahhh, EQ!

PS: a Note to SK's... Vendors in Halas don't like you, they won't sell to you - even if you have a good amount in the bank.

That defines EQ: Being a Newb, a wonderful person hooks you up with some coin, you are stuck in a city looking for your corpse as a SK with a few levels before 'sense corpse' - and not one single vendor will sell you even a rusty dagger, lol!

Thank God something told me to 'bank that newbie sword' ...

I decided to fool around and play AE fear on all the lowbie mobs at the zone in of CT. Then I get stuck under a ladder and all the friends and the lowbie mobs come in and rape me. I couldn't move lolz

[Barthorn]

I was in a group with a cleric doing BnB, he died and whatnot. We found him a 90 percent rez, he looted his corpse, and proceeded to mod rod himself to death. It was pretty damn funny :D
