![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? Wow, some of these stories are pretty mad. I feel sorry for all your losses. I've been very fortunate by comparison. I lost a lot of the black Orchish bows when my house decayed a good few years back. I only had two characters and no money back then, one of them an archer so I was upset at the time ![]() Last week I lost my Boomstick due to forgetting to insure it. Luckily thats it for me. Minors only ![]() |

![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? I just had a big loss. I was sitting around brit bank trying to sell a house on my wife's account and some guy opened up a gate to a collapsed house. So I run into gate to see if theres anything good. When I arrived there were already a lot of people. Most of the stuff had been picked over. I happen to be searching through a chest and found a basket within a basket within 1 and so on for about 4 or so picking up nice weps thoughout until i get to the last one which had 1 each of every runic hammer except val and several full bod books for smithing and tailoring. As soon as I got this stuff i ported out quick take it to my house and come back. Well as it turned out I forgot I was on my wife's account whos chars share a house with me (which is why im able to sell houses with her and still be co-owner at another) and that the stuff didnt get locked down and decayed as I went back to trying to sell the house I placed. Although I didnt get these myself through filling constant bods I still feel the loss as Im sure all the hammers were worth a lot. I know there were a lot of hammers including ancient smithy hammer which are the same color as the val so even though I looked over the stuff I didnt do it that accuratly so there was a chance a val runic was in there but if there was I dont wanna know. ![]() Power is not given, it is taken! |

![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? The only loss that comes to my head is just fruit baskets. I'm sure I've lost a big rare in the past, but I can't remember it off the top of my head. I DID laugh at all my guildies who, back when they had the scavenger hunt/race on Chessy, either sold their Purple Mongbat Earrings for 1mil or threw them away. There were only 17 on the shard. I logged into a character I hadn't used in a LONG time, and saw I was still wearing them. Checked the event rares pages....saw they were selling for 20-25 mil now. I got 20mil for mine. Poor guildies....LOL |

![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? Ok, I had a 'tard moment today. I was wayyyyyy over my house limit, because my vendors expired. So, I went and threw tons of armor and stuff that the guy who sold me the house left in some crates. Didn't realize till I spoke to someone at the bank that I'd thrown away some old invuln. armor. Yeah. ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? A b-b-b-black and white tattered p-p-p-painting. A f-f-f-friend that was quitting gave to me to watch over, and I in turn let another friend put it up in her house since I didn't use in my c-c-c-crib. She left the game without telling me, and the next thing I know it's hanging in other people's houses over the last couple of years. Well, if it be the same one. Taught me not to loan my stuff out that others give to me, and most of dat is stuff that isn't necessarily an arty, like that first nice sword I found off the ground in Vesper one Saturday morning when just a n-n-n-newb. Seemed like it was Christmas day. ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Worst loss of a rare ever? The only item I really regret is my Personal Bless Deed for my pvp mage. I was "quitting" at the time and forgot I left it in a chest in my house. I let the account expire, I let the house fall, and I've never seen the deed since. Out of all of my characters, I only have 1 Personal Bless Deed left. The others are different stories involving GMs, but we won't get into that now... |
