Did you ever lose your gear on live through a corpse rot?

Great stories!

From this thread I now suspect restores may have been at the mercy of individual whims of which ever GM your server had?

I'd wager if you had pushed the issue aggressively you would have gotten your gear back. Back when Verant/Sony had a business to run, as a paying customer ... there's no reason they would have denied that unless there was evidence of shenanigans.

You are right. I was a teenager and just assumed the savage nature of corpse rot was part of what made the game special. If it happened today I would do things differently.

Corpse restorations make me happy. I brought one back the other day that rotted in 2010. Nothing like a 7 year break!

Yes, I was in my early 20's playing a 40 something paladin. Cash was limited and I died just before my sub was going to hit and I didn't at the time have funds to cover it. Once I got everything squared away and logged back in, my corpse had rotted. My guild banded together and regeared me, and I think my gear was even better than before!

My level 10 high elf wizard died somewhere random in Lesser Faydark, near an orc camp...in a dip in the landscape somewhere.

I hunted for it and kept dying. I found my naked corpses but the equipped one rotted. I rerolled [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] lol

Edit: No that wasn't on P99 ... pssh

Same thing happened to me with a high elf wizard and then a human wizard too

Way back, my PC was having really weird issues where I'd be in a zone, zone somewhere else, and I'd pop up at the first zone in. For example, I would zone into BB from GFay, run to Kaladim, and after I finished loading, I'd be back at the Gfay zoneline. This happened to me when I was kiting at the Chessboard. Got my ass handed to me and respawned at Kaladim instead of my bind point. I ran to where I died and it wasn't there. No corpses in zone. I petitioned and the GMs had no account of a body of mine. Had to start from scratch.

Eventually got my epic on that same toon. Never give up!!!

Never lost gear to a rot on live, but I did accidentally delete a character.

Logged to char select, selected Toon A

Delete Toon A

Toon A still there....

Delete Toon A again..

Toon A and B disappear.

Thankfully the one that wasn't supposed to be deleted was restored by a gm after petitioning

I probably would have handled it the same way you did at the time ... also a teenager (and one that didn't know my asshole from my elbow).
