Server lag spikes

"OPENTHEDOOR"No chance that for some of the rare items (+4 bows, 5% Eva ect ect) You can give back to the owners Fin?


Well the +4 bow (SYLVERANGEL) was picked up by another player. But we can see where such items have gone and will decide what going to do about returning them within next few days.


Good to see this coming for GM. i made a thread before when server gone mad and dropped my apus bow + 2 toe speed b, please take a look if this was picked or eaten by the server. I doubt someone picked it due to no one can log in that time.

If the whole server dies like it has been recently and you log on as soon as its back up, death drops will still be on the floor for a bit before they're eaten by the server.

Me and Genefuser were hunting at WBM a couple of days ago. Server died, then I logged in as soon as it came back up and found his death drops on the floor, luckily.

after a big lag spike there are people who log on noob chars to roam the maps for death drops, this is how my +4 apus was picked up ... after my death the server was back quite fast, no idea if its still on the floar if the server has been off for more than an hour thow :s

If I remember correctly drops stay on the ground for about 10 minutes.

Rather than switching off the drops, is it not possible to switch of the death timer, so that the user is still dead when logged back on? Then the option is there for them to revive or warp.

I understand why drops have been switched off but it renders PK's & WoW kills alittle pointless, in addition to general carelessness when hunting.

Drops have been disabled for NPC deaths! Learn to read.

I don't understand why people are so against this. Someone losing hard earned gear due to unfortunate and sometimes unexpected DC is stupid game design.

I'm all for dropping items on RvR/PvP deaths.

Remember that death drops are ONLY switched off for deaths from an NPC (anything non-player) as a temporary fix for this current instability.

No decisions have been made permanent.

Thank you Ghost, at least someone has the decency to point out what I missed WITHOUT being rude.

Being able to login dead is an alright option as well instead of that dumb self d/c that happens sometimes. It's not like good items are easily replaced they take weeks and even months to acquire.

Would also like to see this...people shouldn't be at a disadvantage if their ISP is playing up...You lose players through frustration of dropping very rare items through no fault of their own.

Logging back in to a death screen would be good.

Of course if on 10% penalty forced warp should still be in place.

There's no circumstance other than a lag out or dc where you realistically would loose items. Is it even a requirement of the game?
