I recently returned to the game after a LONG time away. I knew I was asking for trouble going into hardcore only days after returning but I play hc in all games ive tried so....So I get to level 7 on my arti (Im pretty stoked). He dies. I understood the risks no problem.0 exp - However I recreate a level 1, spend all my bank plat on getting some gear. Get in a guild and go to airship for buffs. While buffing there is an explosion and I die.... I died with 0 xp earned. Without ever setting foot in a quest or wilderness area. I didn't know about the rooms with explosive barrels... Who woulda thought you can die in guild airship....Anyways not an angry rant but my thought is it should be changed. Really took me outta my groove enjoying the game again.

Thanks for the good story!
Made me laugh.
Yeah the DANGER ROOM on guild ship is pretty sweet!
Our guild leader put big bold warning in the guild message.
I don’t think you are the only one.
Good times

I didn't know about the rooms with explosive barrels...
yeah, that room got me once on Argo... took me a few minutes to figure out what happened.
It is a pretty stupid feature, but good for a laugh I guess - unless it happens on the hardcore server.
You can get all the buffs (apart from the old cargo buffs) from the buff bar on the top deck so no reason to go in that room; except for the intractable ones like the tavern and vendors.
Tough break. Don't let it keep you down (for long).
If you PM me your HC in-game name I'll send you some plat for new gear if you want.

That floor is nicknamed:
Fourthbidden
"The fourth floor is forbidden, nothing there at all, dusty, boring, empty..."
"Did you realize what you could have done?
If the enchanted rose is broken, the whole hardcore server will collapse..."
Congratulations, I guess, having made a record on quickest death?!?
Happy hunting, Good Luck, and may the odds ever be in your favor.
"What is Fawn really hiding on the fourth floor behind those traps?
The world may never know?"

You can actually kill yourself on the consolidated Buff bar itself; if you are very low on health with a very low level buffed Character while it resets your bars and reapplies your buffs. I've done that once or twice in the past on the normal servers with some Favour bots.

One of the guilds I'm in on a normal server has the Danger Room next to the crafting hall, bank and tavern. After breaking down items, I've almost run right in there several times thinking it was the bank.
This was one of my greatest fears on this server.

The "danger" of the Danger Room can be turned off, ya know. There's a lever that does it. Might be an idea for HCL. Just sayin'. :cool:

Note: **Lever is at the back of the Danger Room**
JK - I have no idea, but that would be funny, imo.

IIRC(?), it's on top of some crates.
Damage is about 300(?), Ref Save ~60(?), so high level toons can do it np either way.
