Happened last night actually. Drank too much with some friends. One of them wanted to play GW so I logged on for him. He asked if he could make a new one so I said "delete the nooby one", meaning the one I made that morning for fun. He jokingly said "but they're all nooby", so I said "then delete them all". In his drunken haze, he took me seriously and did so. Goodbye years of time spent playing. Goodbye hundreds of thousands of gold. Hello new character. Hello starting all over again.

Mostly filled with crap. For some reason my storage plans are backwards. I keep crap that may be worth something in storage, higher end items on characters.

I'm not too pissed about it now, it's kind of nice to start all over again.

Oh wow, ouch. I guess the worse thing that I've done in game was sell a bunch of 4th year mini's for 4k because I wasn't aware of the HoM and was broke (I hadn't played for 2 years, and was technically a noob).

I think a lot of us have sold stuff accidentally to the merch. Even something as simple as merching a group of Nick items that you have been farming for the last hour can be pretty heartbreaking. I've really gotten into the habit of putting a "merchant stop" toward the bottom of my inventory screen. Something like a Hero Book, a miniature, or a quest item works great. That way if I pick up anything of value while questing, I will always move it AFTER that item so when I rapid click sell at the merchant, it will always stop at that spot.

Just disable one of the bags at the merchant and put good drops in there.

A guildie actually merched 3 Voltaic Spears in a very short time (I think 2 in 1 day actually).

AndrewSX · Feb 16, 2011, 09:10 PM // 21:10

I use all these worthless ded white miniatures..i have tons of them across all my chars bags.

Once back when Superior Absorption runes were worth ~80k, I agreed to trade a stack of peppermint candy canes for one of them. Needless to say, the guy switched it to a Superior Tactics rune in the last moment. I was such a noob.

I mentioned several pages ago how I SOLD amber worth 200k to the armor crafter instead of crafting with it. When factions was new I BOUGHT amber 3k each and needed to merch stuff before I had room for the amber.
I use summoning stones or candycanes for stoppers. They are useful here and there, so it isnt a wasted slot.

Bbut then again I tend to care too much for backup in case of ANY calamity. Before I move out I like to have individual dp removers, party dp removers, some cons to improve all team, some summon stone, and extra to give to party mates if my own die, lockpicks, extra salvage kits plus I always have some iron and dust, since I always salvage more of that underway. Peppermint candy, honeycombs, fruitcakes, wintergreen, rainbow, candy corn, rez scroll, extra kits.........
Im getting so fat and heavy that I look like yakkington and still have almost no room left in my bag.
Thats bad, moving out with a yakkington sized load of crap in bags already.

Destructionmama · Feb 18, 2011, 09:41 PM // 21:41

been playing the game for 3.5 years with a character in every class and never realize there are perfect savage kits that you can purchase, had been using Superior savage kits to remove runes from armor all this time FML

Cogginator · Feb 25, 2011, 12:02 AM // 00:02

what i did was when i first got the game was think ooo you can make you own guild *delves deep into making own guild* ahhh yay i'm in my own shiney guild and then played it on and off since i got it 3 years ago with me and my brother just in the guild.... now i decide to actually advertise my guild.... i now have me, my brother, one friend and 2 inactive players and many large guilds to compete with... it's guna be a long process *smashes head against wall*

KZaske · Feb 25, 2011, 07:49 AM // 07:49

The dumbest thing I did was sell an r7 mad damage gold FDS (unidentified) to the merch for 50 some gold... That was a about six months after release. I have only gotten one other one since and it was a blue.

Izari · Feb 25, 2011, 03:54 PM // 15:54
