Naked bodies decay in 20 minutes (I think. Could be more or less, but its
not a lot of time). Don't remember if it was always like this or if it went
in as part of that ressurection patch/nerf a while back.

From: Kevikazzam@...

Hello all,
Went on my first dragon raid tonight. Well it didn't go well, we had a
good plan and high hopes. But to no avale we got wrecked like it was our
job.
Got in a group with 3 tanks , 2 clerics , and me. we ran in , got under
nags
. I played Guard/ Elem like i learned on this list. Well , my connection
craps out. i Die , everyone else gets nailed, but not before almost killin
the damned thing. So it was disappointing but not too bad. .....but it ain't

over for this bard. I run back to solb , and join lots of naked adventurers
impatient to get back to their corpses. we walked to the bat room and wait
for a bit. Some jackass jumps the gun and pulls a full stone room. I try to

fear to save lives. and i did ...except my own. back in Freeport I sit on my

duff and wonder if i should continue or not, i decided to wait and see. A
minute later i am being ressed by a lvl 50 and i get most of my exp back. I
get my hope renewed and decide to stick it out, i mean i have a couple of
hours to get that other corpse res'd. Well, we spend like an hour while
people try to drag corpses from under nags, then a while trying to
reorganize
and regroup. <<Mind you there are still a bunch of corpses unrecovered.>>
Before i know it , people start dropping like fly's , gating , going to bed,

etc... I'm tired so i decide to get a druid gate me and a 50 cleric to
lava
, go to solb and get my other res. We go back , and my corpse is gone! Now
here's the real kicker, I'm lvl 46 . I lost a bub and a half of exp in all !

And with the hours i can play and zones so overcrowded , getting that exp
back will be like going through 45. This story really has no point. I just
wanted to vent. I'm going to get 47 by next week << I hope >> and also i'll

have a better connection. So I haven't given up, just beat down hehe....
