departing and scarabs

[theotherjohn]

FYI

If you depart with the scarab in your body, it stays with you. Let it fall off before you depart

Holy crap, really? I didn't know that....wonder if that's just a glitch or if it's supposed to be that way?

per Khaladon it is working as intended.

The scarab is in you. If you want it to go away when you decay, then you're going to lose all your inventory with it.

LOL

It really doesn't take that long for a scarab to fall out. It probably checks for a live victim to kill on the pulse and if you're alive for the next one then its still got something to eat!

[theotherjohn]

death is such a joke. I have a depart macro

[Kitsun]

Yeah, it is.

I haven't met anyone else that dies so often that they'd need to macro it however...

Just FYI, if you get killed by weapon fire, wait a bit before departing too!

I'm not sure there's anything else besides those two that will flare/pulse/kill after a decay.

I almost never die.. let alone depart. ::snorts::

I wonder if it's like that in Plat, too...in Plat when you decay, you do lose all your inventory..so wouldn't it be sort of weird in that instance if you keep the scarab but lose everything else, sort of?

[Bobmuhthol]

Yes, that would be weird.

Kiramon might disagree with that... :whistle:

Same kinda stuff happens with skayl hearts...if you die from one and you depart before it cools off, it'll keep killing you. It takes forever to cool off and, to top it off, its cursed so you can't drop it. So, the motto of the story is, don't pick up the damned skayl hearts.

[Weedmage Princess]

Actually, it'd be don't search skayls. You automatically pick up the heart once you search it...I think....right? <ponder>

wear shield

put tiger-claw in my sheath

search skayl

get vial

pour vial on glaes

put glaes in disk

[Galleazzo]

Heh, dying's a joke now. I can't wait until someone decides to find out how high he can fill his bucket, and just frigging has someone kill him every two minutes for an hour or so.
