Damn spell burst. I never bothered spell tanking when I was OHE, so I sort of forgot about it.


[Ruined Temple, Second Floor]
Daylight streams in through a window along the northern wall, revealing dark scorch marks along the stone walls. The floor is completely submerged below nearly a foot of water, and several large pieces of rotted wood float about haphazardly. You also see a wooden arrow, an insect swarm, a small pink pearl, a bundle of sapphire-tipped arrows, a grizzled triton magus, a bundle of silver-streaked arrows, a dried seaweed-wrapped longbow, a triton combatant that is lying down, a bundle of silver-streaked arrows, some muck and some short ascending stairs.

And that is why I hope that no one that could possibly save me from within seconds of death happens to be carrying a lapis lazuli with them. Bummer.

[droit]

Yeah, that was a bummer, but I don't really blame the guy. I've screwed up a few rescues myself like that.

[mgoddess]

And that is why I hope that no one that could possibly save me from within seconds of death happens to be carrying a lapis lazuli with them. Bummer.

He wasn't carrying the dreamstone... it was on the ground.

Still, this is the reason why I try to use at least the first four letters of anyone's names when casting at them... or more, if the system is being stupid (when there's more than one character logged in with the same first four letters in their names).

I've learned to go nice and slow when I am attempting to save someone's ass. Better to take .5 seconds to calmly type out most of the character's name than to cast at an herb, weapon, or gem. That makes you look like an idiot.
