Ah, now that's two questions answered at once. I've zoned into places and
noticed messages in the chat window saying a <insert local baddy name here>
tries to hit you but misses just before the zone message and though "hmm,
don't recall anyone swiping at me" And a while back a friend of mine was
having a multiple deaths night and found a corpse at a zone border he didn't
remember leaving one at which had duplicates of his back up armor! Sweet!
Wish I had that kind of luck.
"He's dead Jim" Ha ha ha!! Sometimes I swear Scotty is Verant's chief
engineer!
