    From my (far from complete understanding) :

    If you are defeated by a monster, you have a small (~1%) chance of dropping any item in your inventory, other than quest items, bound items, or items that specifically say that they can not be dropped. That's inventory (your bag), not equipment (what you're currently wearing).

    If you are defeated by a player while your name is white or pink (PvP-mode enabled, and having fought another player outside of a duel, respectively), you start with a larger but still small chance of dropping an item from your inventory. If your name is red (which only occurs if you have killed other players) you also have a chance of dropping items from your equipment list. The above rule about quest items, bound items, or items that specifically say otherwise remains.

    Ive played PW on different servers and have never know death protect stuff to drop.....until today...
    I lost every item my barb was using/carrying today including quest reward items marked can not drop
    and that includes equipped items(dispelling the myth you cant dropped equipped items)
    Maybe a bug or unlucky day to decide to take on lvl 80s with lvl 42 barb:P

    Foxy if you just attaked(ie pink name) equipment cant even drop, even if its regular npc stuff. I'd say ur char is bugged or has REALLY bad karma. You should submit a bug report.

    @Shanley, If your name is white the worst possibility is that you drop something from your inventory. you WONT drop things you are using like armor/mounts/weapons/etc. The chance is REALLY small, and from lvl 1-64 I've died about 10-15 times(afk flying into air mobs ftw). So the chances of losing something is to small to think about.

    Anything in your regular inventory CAN be dropped, anything being worn or in the bank is safe. (well I think worn equipment can be dropped with a red name, not sure about that).

    So yes the sundrop dress from the cash shop, can be dropped, if you are not wearing it, and are carrying it in your inventory. Elf wings can be dropped, if you are carrying them (mabe he had the white wings in his inventory but was wearing eagle or CS wings). Barring an unforseen bug.

    Inventory items (ones that are not equipped) CAN be dropped when you are killed as a white name. When you are red, then your equipped items can be dropped. Fashion I an unsure of.
