Corpse Bug
My character hasn't died since the Wharftown conflict but apparently her corpse was found today when I logged into Cordor and moved to the Temple of the Triad. It even came up in her battle window that her corpse was being moved even though she was very much alive.
I assume I broke something again : (

Re: Corpse Bug
When your character is raised or respawns, all copies of their corpse that are currently online (either on the ground or in someone's inventory) will be deleted, but any corpses carried by characters who are offline can't be. It's possible that someone picked up your character's body and logged off during the Wharftown event (or some other time when your character died), and just logged back in for the first time.

Re: Corpse Bug
- You die
- Someone picks up your corpse
- They log out, leaving a corpse on the ground
- Someone else sees it and bins it
- You respawn
- The person who originally picked up your corpse logs back in, drops the corpse and it gets picked up by someone else (or by themselves again), who moves it around.

Re: Corpse Bug
If they logged in before you did after the reset, noticed the corpse and dropped it, then noticed you log in, they might just pick up the corpse and eventually try to raise it (which would be unsuccessful, since your character isn't dead).

Re: Corpse Bug
I find it very hard to believe someone is just carrying her corpse around from a month ago and haven't noticed.

Re: Corpse Bug
My character died. Was revived moments later.
A few minutes pass by, and I start getting messages about the corpse being picked up. And then again. And then again, despite, I think, the corpse being either binned or bashed.
It would be hilarious if suddenly the island would be littered with corpses. All of them the same.

Re: Corpse Bug
I was raised by another character, maybe just a couple of minutes after dying.
No corpse was there when we left.
Then I started getting the messages about the corpse being picked up.
Even a tell from another player asking if I was ready for a revive..even though the character was already living.
I did not think to ask, because I was tired, but I have the impression the body was showing up at..some other random places.
I say this, because not long before the original post of this topic, I had come across the body of the op's character by one of the gates of Brogendenstein, along with that of another character.
The two in the exact same spot. To the point that it was hard to chose which body to pick up, as you hovered the cursor over them.

Re: Corpse Bug
why do corpses change weight? one time i picked up two coroses for 150 lbs each and was encumbered. Dropped them to fight a mob, and when i picked them up again, one of them changed to 50 lbs instead of 150 lbs. Is this intentional?
Note: both corpses belonged to the same person, but i didn't know what i needed to raise him, so i carried both to the nearest altar.
