Absor talked about corpses a bit over the last couple days, clarifying how much time you have to res your dead arse should you meet your maker.To be clear, if a naked corpse can receive an exp res (i.e. not a duel or sacrifice corpse), you have the following time:
Level 1 - 5: 30 minutes
Level 6+: 24 hours of online time, or 1 week of offline time, whichever comes first.
After some discussion, Absor admitted that in the latter case it's actually not one or the other. Your corpse will be around for 7 days, but being online accelerates the timer. So you could actually be online for 12 hours and offline for 3.5 days and your corpse will go bye-bye. So don't do that.
I could report a bit of Sullon Zek news, but I won't, because SZ gets entirely too much attention.
Well, okay, I give in. Absor said he isn't going to reveal how Verant determines which team controls a zone, for fear that the wannabe l33t will cheat in some way to swing the balance to their team. And he's right.
Sorry, this isn't much of a roundup. But it's the weekend, so you get to relax, have a drink, and enjoy the return of one of the great treasures our society has to offer.
