You know what they say...Stupid is as stupid does

I'd prob call that death a mulligan man.

You haven't deleted yet, right?

At least take all the plat / gear off.

There's something else I notice when I revisit Slidein's tells. He was using a staff of temperate staff. Lower element is not an AE spell. Level 40 is too low to single pull a spec - you cast at one, and the other three will all aggro immediately. It would have been very difficult for him to single out each spec and use the staff on it - they all look the same. Of the four specs he pulled on top of me, clearly two were attacking me - the pet communications reveal that. He only had aggro on one, two tops. The rest were social.

He's either REALLY stupid, or this was intentional.

Doesn't seem to be a reason for it to be intentional. Seems like he just doesn't understand aggros mechanics for the Spectres and how they will attack the person sitting/bandaging if pulled past them within aggro range, before returning to attack him.

It's odd he made it this far without understanding the game's mechanics.

That's a lot of players these days. Instead of exploring on their own, they pull up the wiki for the "Soandso's wizard kiting guide" and just follow it to a T.

Nice day in the park?

Not if you play an enchanter. Tried to rest once after a game of Frolf, gang of Shadow Men came at me from clear across the park.

Post just proves enchanter sit aggro is real.

You deserved to die and things like this are what make the game alive. EQ is supposed to be a dangerous world where something wild might happen at any given time. Stop whining.

You should have been paying attention to your surroundings, and probably should have been sitting at the water's edge. If you can't see that a bunch of specters are coming your direction, and moreover if you don't move in response, that's your fault.

If I'm driving on the highway and a drunk driver crosses the line and kills me, that's my fault.
