Why do you not run level 20s?

When I've bought runs to Drok's, its usually been on a level 20 toon.

Oh it's cuz lvl 20 W/mo's and D/Mo or D/a's pack running builds when they join you and start running on their own when u get to snake dance without paying.

I do run lvl 20's, eles monks necros rits messes but not chars that have a risk of pulling off snake dance, since the whole thing is about lornars anyway.

I would collect the whole fee by the end of dreadnoughts if it were up to me.

shrouded^god · Dec 04, 2007, 08:27 AM // 08:27

Had this happen only minutes ago...

CoM HM run...2k run...easy & quick...I wasn't the one running, just going along for drops and chests.

So about halfway through the 3rd level...this guy goes AFK all of a sudden, doesnt mention hes leaving or anything. So someone mentions it...we all get to Muraki, pay...let the runner do his/her thing. Then open the end chest...a few moments later...we notice the one who had gone AFK...is dead...he died at the fire things before the stairs into muraki...and said he 'fell asleep' needless to say...a few of us waited it out until he left so he didnt rez and run to the endgame chest. It was pretty great...Kind of sad as well...for 2k LoL

It is even better if you start naming off a ton of GMs, asking which one they are. lol. Then you ask something about that GM that you know about. Some guy said he was Izzy the other day, lol... I was like, really? So Izzy, remind me where you come from... he was like, new york. I was like "oh, wow, last week on steam you said Arizona..." He logged out.

Was in DoA yesterday and saw a guy in Party search selling a R9 Inscribable Zodiac Sword. I asked him how much he wanted for it, to which he replied 100k + ectos. anyone that keeps up on prices knows that is way too much so I decide I'm not interested. Then he goes on about how it's inscribable and you can only get inscribable Zodiacs from HoH chests. I inform him that you can also get inscribable zodiacs from the end chests of Deep & Urgoz. He then proceeds to call me a noob cause you can't get inscribable wepons from Factions. I then asked him if all the inscribable weapons me & my guild have gotten in Urgoz & the Deep where just my imagination & that he should read wiki. He then tries to appologized claiming he just saw it was an update, which it was, about a yr or so ago.

I was up real late, had been playing for a long time, but I had a good sword drop. So I wanted to mod it while I was in town merchanting stuff. So I advertise for a Sundering Sword Hilt. This was back when they were around 50K. I put up my money and he puts up the Hilt and I hit accept and it cancels. I ask if they are full or something and we try it again and I didn't check the item this time and hit accept. It was a Fiery Sword Hilt. I had him banned. I know he was because he came on days later with a different account pissed off, lol.
