I thind i know that wizard on the Rathe or one of them. I've played
several characters on the Rathe that were self made meaning they were
running around in cloth and scrounging money for spells for lvl's they
had passed. Camping is boring and i'd rather play the game than camp an
item. I will however check such a location as Trainer Hill for an
opportunity on that Shiney Brass Shield which is a highly coveted item.
Having a wizard pop out of the shadows to steal your kill so you can see
a SBS auctioned at a price way beyond your means might be part of the
game or a reflection on real life. Typically those wizards are high lvl
and are there to steal Crush and possibly Dvinn from groups that are
tanking. When unsuccessful they go to Trainer Hill to steal.
One time i was in a party of 6 lvl 9 and 10 lvl characters. A nice
group for the trainer. A lvl 34 druid shows up and initiates talk while
we are in group chat. The trainer pops up and he instantly decides that
he wants it and steals it from my group. Turns out he was stealing from
the poor to give to the poor. A regular Robin Hood I called him. He
was just there to play God cause he was bored. Experiences like that
really taint my enjoyment of the game.
If that is going to be an ongoing occurance from the SBS to J boots or
whatever, THEN I WELCOME VERANT CHAMPIONING THE CAUSE OF THE LOW LVL
PLAYER!
There is however the incidence of twinked low lvl players being
manufactured into 25th lvl characters in 24 hours with the massive
assistance of high lvl characters who erase damage inventories caused by
high lvl characters. The low lvl character steps in when the creature
has a thread of life and scores the kill on a few points damage.
My 17 Cleric in Befallen scored three kills with three blasts while
helping with what he thought was a third lvl train that was brought to
the atrium at the entrance to lvl 2. Turns out the second and part of
the third lvl's were being drained for the benefit of characters that
were lvl 10 to 12 at the time i checked the list of Befallen players.
My Cleric, with nothing to do, and not interested in interfering with
the organized crime on The Rathe, decided to log off and come back
another day. Some day he might decide not to come back if things don't
change.
Regarding trainer hill, I have since learned that when the Hill is empty
to ask if there are any invisible or hiding characters in line, or
possibly someone up in that tree on the left. Believe me, scum wizards
have no courtesy and my list of non-eligable resurrections is dominated
by wizards.
