Recently I have read a few post on body popping.. people exiting games when they gotten NK. Some people are sympathetic while some says serve them right for being so stupid. Me, I was neutral because it has never happen to me.... until last night...

I was deuling with a pala, then a coldsorc can n hostile me. I put on my anti cold gear by taking out my +20str rare nec tiara and change to the uniq tiara for more resist. After I killed her, another fire sorc came at me from behind and kill me. When I come back and click on my body, the fire sorc killed me again. I didnt realize at that time by clicking on the body, I have retrieve my 40 res hoto, 2 x soj and 6 BO CTA. The 2rd time I try to retrieve my body, she nk me again. I thought fine, since I never pick up new equipment after I die, I should be ok if I exited the game and come back to take revenge.

When I got back, I realized that I couldnt pick up my body. So I put on my rare tiara. Only my enigma and boots was left. Rest has gone into blizzard's oblivion....

I was totally stunned. Never thought it will happen to me. Though I cant be considered a vet but I'm certainly not a newbie. The only consolation was that the enigma was still with me and I still have means get replacements. Hard lesson nevertheless.

Moral of the story: think twice.. thrice before you exit game if you have mulitples corpses.

u can only have one body and its by gold value so whatever u have on is what u got from the highest gold value everything else is gone

I thought blizz changed this server-side because of this problem, where now it's your first body that gets saved between games.

I could be wrong, but I could've sworn i've read that somewhere.

Another solution is to play HC. By doing this you have 100% sure you only have 1 body at a certain time.

good point.

the best solution is to not run out blindly like an idiot thinking that some pre-teen loser on b.net is going to allow you to get your body.

Hell just do what I do. Wait. Go get a soda, watch some tv.
Check back once in a while. Those games empty out after a while anyway.

Same here. I rarely duel, but when I do I find that the people in those public games have a short attention span. If you aren't giving them any responses, they get bored easily and have to go find someone else to try and prove their superiority on.

I waited for a guy in pubby for 3 hours once ( i watched tv in the meantime, ate lunch, chilled with a buddy). When he got back... BAMMO! Just goes 2 show, u can never b 2 careful (patience :lol: ).

**** happens, wear a helmet. Sorry to hear about your loss. Next time, put all your charms in your stash before you get your body. That'll solve your problem.

Why do you MF in Flayer Jungle? I read some chart that said best place to find skill GC's was Great Marsh or Flayer in Nightmare...is that why you MF Flayer? I assume this was Hell, not Nightmare, so why MF there?

Lots of monsters with not a lot of life. More monsters = more drops = more good drops.
