hehe, the shin armor is easy to get usually, other night i was there with a
group in the bedroom and we had 2 shins with pants on the ground dead. we
auctioned them to anyone needing them, then someone auctioned one in the
hallways, then another auctioned one right at the zone, you just got a bad
night, if people hunt the corridors or the zone, you will have a harder time
to get the items.
