Your worst corpse run

Heckler · #1 04-17-2010, 12:57 AM

This actually happened to my real life buddy.

---He created a Bard in freeport and decided to run it to Qeynos before school.
---Twinked it with over 100k in gear.
---Was level 5.
---Ran from Freeport to Qeynos and a lion killed him in North Karana.
---He had school in 30 minutes.
---Back then your body had a 30 minute decay timer if you were under level 6.
---He couldn't get a port so he had to run it.
---Made it with under a minute left on his corpse.

/shrug anytime I randomly decided to log on wasted. Run around, get myself killed and then not remember I even played.

How long ago did they get rid of the 30 minute corpse timer on corpse that had gear?

Better yet, how does a bard with selos get killed by a lion especially if he's wearing 100k in armor?

This was during the Velious days. I think, only a month or so before Luclin.

Good question Guineapig. I'm not sure how he managed to die with all of that gear. I do remember waiting to hitch a ride to school and him panicking because he died.

Sorry to derail the thread. Back on point:

My worst corpse runs have actually been on this server since back when I played on live travel was somewhat easier already and there were so many people online all the time that could help.

Most recently I had a fun corpse run involving server lag. A level 4 or 5 alt of mine died in Crushbone shortly after making the run all the way from Halas. Couldn't find a bind but wasn't worried cause the alt was twinked out pretty well. Of course good gear knowing how to play doesn't help during a lag death. And Halas is the most impossible place to find a port in classic to begin with and half the server was offline anyway due to the lag.
