A note to the wise

[Doubleplay]

I imbued a bracelet and ring to fit my character. They were hard to complete, but were just the thing to balance my toon. I had started with freshly made jewelry by my GM tinker.

I forgot to insure em. Not usually a problem, as I am usually able to retrieve my corpse, at least in the past I have. I got slammed by a kepetch ambusher in the Tel Mur desert while low on hit points. My ghost got rezzed right away, and I went back to corpse. Nothing on it !! no aids, no bags, no jewels. The Kepetch appeared again right there, so I killed and looted it. No bags, no aids, no jewels. I ranged out and killed the mobs nearby (only 3) and no loot. I think that the Kepetch go back underground as soon as you leave the area. When they come back up, they no longer have your loot. Apparently a whole new instance of the mob appears.

So beware. You can lose everything not insured real fast on some of these new mobs.

Thanks for the heads up. Sorry about your loss of jewelry as well.

Did you try logging out/in? (I've occasionally had some display issues after a res where items in my pack don't show up properly even though they were there - especially with special insta-reses like the silver sapling)

I have not had any issues like you report.

I keep getting a persistent issue of the Rune Book disappearing from my back pack and being greyd out in the hot bar.

To fix it I simply close the back pack and reopen it.

But from a use perspective it is clearly not in the back pack.

It will normally occur when I use the book to recall to Luna, then it is no longer available.

I constantly read stories like this on this forum and I gotta say - I've never had a single thing like this happen to me - what did you people do to your computers/uo install that makes this stuff happen? seriously


here's 5gp, go buy a new computer or something - hehe

do you like chew on your keyboard or something in your free time - I just don't get it - I never lose items - ever

Quick fix for this-

Use insurance. Quit being cheap.

EDIT: I see he said "forgot to insure them" now. nevermind.

Quick Fix for this-
Dont forget to insure your items!!

Something like this happened to me too, but it was not by a disappering monster.

I got looted by Napolem the thief or whatever his name is. Fitting for his name, he looted everything but the boots of me. 4 stacks of bandies, full unraveling bag, bag full of reagents, bag full of potions, pile of gold. All in all, 300 stones.

Killed him and what did I get back? A lousy stack of bandages. Everything else was gone and boy, was I pissed.
