Subject: RE: Bard Handicap of Sorts


Currently either A: a bard can't do it either since levitate does not last
long enough to loot and Necros don't get levitate until what level? 39th?,
or B: anyone can do it as a bard could target the corpse and another party
member can /assist to target the same thing the bard is targeting, in this
case the corpse.

Either way it isn't consistent. Should a level 4 Enchanter who hasn't been
able to buy their Gate spell be left in a solid wall because they can't
prove they do not have the spell, and a level 4 Enchanter should be able to
Gate out of the wall? But a warrior of the same level would be freed since
he obviously could not get out? Such a decision would not surprise me
actually given my past few experiences.
