Last night Myclawz and myself hopped online to get into some long awaited playtime. Since he was only level 8, I traveled over to DLW to help him quest a little. As I zoned in I turned on mentoring so he could continue to earn exp as we did things. I met him just a little outside of the city gates and we immediately moved over to a hut to get a bunch of quests.
This was about the time that I remembered one important fact: I am not an evil race. A level 25 heroic guard came over and killed me. Great - I think I deserved that for being stupid. The really sad thing is that it gave me a few options of where to spawn, one of which was 0.0 meters away.
Without putting much thought into it I clicked revive; I spawned in the center of the huts. The guard ran over and immediately killed me again. Being stubborn I kept spawning in this spot until I was able to run away from the guard…it took me about 3 trys.
This reminded me of back in the EQ1 days where you could literally bind yourself anywhere (including over lava). I had a few friends who decided to keep killing themselves until they were low level again (but with awesome weapons). I also had a few friends who found themselves on PoFear corpse runs which never ended well.
What is your best corpse recovery/death loop story?
