    Question I was killed when i logged in to khyber harbor today.

    I don't have the 'accept challenge' selected on my options. So imagine my surprise when I land in harbor upon log in and die. Along with anyone else in the public areas. Whoever did that, should be banned. That cost everyone platinum to repair their broken items due to an unexpected public death. I feel I should be reimbursed some how. Anyone else suffer this untimely death.? Shandray

    Nobody killed you challenges dont allow you to be killed in public areas. sometimes you might take random falling damage due to a bug.

    LGS Triple Negative sticks are/were (unsure if the patch fixed it) giving negative levels when you cast a buff on someone. If someone were to use this for evil in the harbour / Korthos...

    Hi,

    Look at these two shifty characters and their all-too-plausible explanations ...

    The first one claims that what happened to you was impossible, when in fact you know very well that it did. That's a tad suspicious.

    The second one seems to know entirely too much. Perhaps his friendly manner and helpful explanation is all just a front to conceal his monstrous intentions.

    Is one of them the vicious madman who is stalking lowbies in the harbour and doing these evil deeds? Could they be in league together?

    Or perhaps the harbour predator is still out there, chortling madly and lurking in the bushes, as he plots his next murder. Will it be you, or you, or YOU?

    Thanks.

    PS: Before anyone's nose gets out of joint, I've run with both of these guys and they are nice people who don't pick on new players. I myself don't own any LGS items capable of these terrible deeds either.

    Hi,

    Yeah, it probably was that **** dog.

    OP, if this is still bothering you later on, and you are in need of some plat, find me in game.

    I'll give you more than enough to cover the damage to your gear and help you get started.

    Thanks.

    sent u some plat. hit me up if you want/need anything else. agreed whoever was killing harbour newbies is a jerk. people forget that when starting out you have nothing and even repairing things can be beyond your means.

    Money returned :/

    Indicating that it is likely that the player has not. Which is sad. Not such a good thing for player retention :/

    I honestly doubt a player killed this person's toon. They probably assumed it was another player because of the way other games work, where something like that is not only possible but standard behavior. Most likely it was just a bug, given how difficult it is to kill someone in a public area. Hopefully the player will come back.

    while they seem to be fixed, the last few updates let us kill people in public.

    Sure, but I still think it far more likely that the person assumed that's what happened because it happens so much in other games. Maybe I'm just optimistic.
