It is good to know that the tabber gets something. I always thought it was lame that the tabber got less than everyone else (I cannot imagine the designers expected people to let the tabber keep all the good drops so the game appeared to be designed in such a way that the tabber got the least).0 -
My most recent fail happened was when I thought I was being a clever cheap **** by making this 3.5k piece of equip instead of buying it. The problem was that I needed a couple of mats. If I need a material, I usually grind for it. But it was like 3am and I was nearly keeling over from a headache so I decided to catshop it.
After 3 hours of randomly checking catshops in West Arch, I finally decide to give in and buy the mat I needed for a bit more than I intended. Right before I buy it, I habitually check my notepad and realize I need two. When I bought it, something made me double check my notepad. That's when I realized that the mats I bought cost more than the equip I was about to make. Refund please?? ;_;
So, I went on and made my equip and it came out with no special features whatsoever. b:sad
Fortunately, today made up for my fail when I found a slotted skirt I needed just floating in front of my face after I logged on and when a 3-slot shirt dropped while questing. So...yay! b:victory
I'm still kind of a newb and reading through this thread is making me wonder how many mistakes I'm still making...InStyle is the greatest faction on Dreamweaver! b:victory

My first character on Delphi was a Magician, and for the life of me couldn't figure out why I was having such trouble killing mobs at level 30 when I went back to her a while back, and looked at her vitality.....35 on, I guess, a really screwed up LA build. b:sad
On Delphi the cost in coin to restat her properly would have been in the millions.0 -

Just remembered another epic fail. Was doing cube one night and I made it to room 50 fairly painlessly. Was all set to talk to the npc and get my 400k exp when I noticed the two new NPCs in the corners. Well, let's take a look and see what their function is. Talked to one NPC and then talked to the other.....wtf?!?!? Got teleported back to room 1! I had forgotten about the bomb I had picked up a few rooms back. The timer had expired. I even had the timer on the right-side of my screen since I track all quest timers to make sure I can finish in time. Getting back to room 50 was not as easy the second time around either. Moral of the story: Don't get distracted by shiny things.0

I was a level 9 noob veno, (am still a nood, but getting better).
I got a quest direction arrow and didn't know the what quest it was for, so I decided to follow it.
I started in Lost city, and it took me into the mountains where I was seeing a bunch of orange names. Well I died a few times, but kept following the arrow until I wound up in Thousand streams. The arrow pointed to to blue door that I could not enter.
That was when I finally tried to talk to somebody, they told me that I was to young for that quest, and to dismiss it and go home.
When I finally made it back to Lost City I thought that the Celestial stone that I had caused the quest, so I NPC'd it for 500 coin.
It sucks being a noob, and I hope to cure this affliction sometime soon.
Ps I walked to thousand streams to see if I could activate the teleport point I could not, so I had to walk back to Lost city again.0 -

IIRC, it has a level 40 level requirement.0 -
Sigh, just did this about 30 minutes ago.
I accidentally dropped a bit over 1 million coin on the ground while transferring stuff to/from my cat shop. For some reason, I'm guessing because of lag, I couldn't pick it up. I tried hitting the pickup hotkey, clicking on the hotkey with the mouse, and clicking on the coins. Multiple times. None of them worked.
Then I watched as someone ran by and picked it up. No attempt to give it back or anything, the jerk just took it and ran. My opinion of the playerbase is greatly diminished... b:angry0 -
My Epic Fail:
I was farming for Ult. Subs. mats in Santuary. As you know, when you farms mats, mobs are close to the mats and if you attack the mob somebody else might take the mat while you are busy with the mob. This has happened to me several times
Well, I see a mat close to two mobs. A cleric is flying static above the mats. I;m assuming she is trying to make a decision if fighting the mobs or go away.
I noticed she decided to go for the mob and I decided to help killing the mob to avoid anyone taking the mat.
As soon as I start helping killing the mobs. She says the following: "I will never forget this". then leaves without finishing the mobs or taking the mats.
Then I noticed my mistake. She wanted the mobs, not the mats. I felt like an idiot as she thought I was KSING.
I could not give an explanation as I got busy with two mobs and she left right away.b:laugh0 -

^ this would have to be an epic fail posting this on the forums your not supposed to have more then 1 account let alone play em both at the same time.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.0 -

Lol soooo wheres the GM fails >.<0

well today, I got an exp stone for my genie from wather of the earth.
I was trying to transfer the exps from the stone to my genie. I did a big mistake, I tranfered my owns exps rather than the one from the stone.
I tranfered all my exps at the moment (20% of what I needed to level up). that leveled up my genie from 5 to 29 lol.
While I was doing it was like: "wow this stone is so good, my genie is leveling up fast". After I was done, I see my own exps on 0% lol.0 -

- Before i erased my first character ever on PWI, RyuuseiTwain (lvl50 BM), i decided to do a last fb39 run. Almost all the team was in the cave, and the ones that were in (along those, me) were told they could start cleaning up. As i was lvl50, i thought i could take care of some mobs, so i targeted a Nether Servant. As its attack is Magic, it quickly killed me and we had to wait for the team's cleric to arrive. after that i just kept doing little extra damage during all the fb XD
- Team for Suzerix: My veno alt (KyuubiNaruko, also on Sanctuary) was lvl46. I asked on the fac and a high lvl Wiz poped up. We formed team with him and some others on the fac that needed Suz too. We were gathering to make a plan (though...Suz is Wizard's Kun Kun XD). When we thought we were safe, Suzerix suddenly poped up right behind us. While most of the team managed to fly away to safety, i didn't react as fast b:surrender We had to wait for the cleric on the team to arrive and res me. While it was arriving, i made comments on team chat about me still having that res scroll in the bank thinking i wouldn't really need it XD
- On my way earlier days at PWI, when Ryuusei existed, i missed my fb19 boss kill (somehow) so i asked in my fac if someone could help me. The leader herself (a lvl60+ cleric in that time) told me she would help me. So we formed team along with another cleric just in case.When we got to the boss room, she started gathering the mobs to use Tempest on them. Something happened that got us killed all...except the other cleric...that just kept running around being chased by the mobs (luckily not by the boss). We had to get out of the cave, and at the safe area, we got to know she had ran out of mana to res us and, anyway, the fact she was being chased by mobs wouldn't have helped.
- I once had a great chance to buy widgeted Wings of Daedalus for /Hope\ (my cleric, also at Sanctuary) at AH for around 2.2m. I nearly had that much and selling some stuff would have helped, but i waited too much and i eventually forgot about the wings at AH and started asking in West Arch, just to end up getting normal WOD at 1.8m...a lost chance i will hardly ever forget b:cry (btw...i know it's not the place to do this but...WTT Seraphic Mist Wings for normal WOD + 150k XD...or eventually Buy them)
- The fact i erased my first char, lvl50 BM, for own reasons counts as an Epic Fail? XD0
