You should lose your items if you die

Good luck finding tanks for any form of content.

And Everquest! Both had this.

god, the corpse runs in EQ… If you couldn’t get it, you were screwed. And if kept dying, de leveled, so if you finally did get your gear, couldn’t even wear it…

feel free to drop your items if you die

Same thing in Ultima Online… I played that game from 1997-2004 when WoW launched.

UO was the bomb back in those days… started where there was no PvE server. You died and could be dry looted… LOL…

After a year or two they went cheese mode though and made a PvE ruleset.

This… this is a terrible idea.

You should lose your account after you post.

I wouldn’t mind blizzard doing this on like an experimental classic server. I would definitely mess around with it. A little too hardcore for me to get really invested in gearing my character when it could all be gone in a blink of an eye though.

so what already happens except without the loot risk

Hardcore is the only way to play Diablo, 2, and 3. Regular is just too easy.

However, if someone TP’s you right into all the mobs they gathered at Mephisto…I lost a higher lvl to that many moons ago lol.

Dropping loot on death while I absolutely love in pvp mmos it doesnt work in WoW.
It was great in Ultima online and there are some pservers that are still pretty decent.

Dropping corpse on death was a really good system in everquest though, and it had a lot of class abilities to assist recovery.
Was always useful to have a necromancer friend or a class with invis to drag you corpse out of a dungeon

Corpse summoning was expensive though :frowning:
