Tonight for the first time I tried setting up a cat shop to try and earn some money but instead of selling anything I found my character dead.
I play on sanctuary a pve server and never flag my character for pvp I dont even dual lol. I was set up in arch in the middle of a area with alot of other shops. How did I die? and is there anything I can do to stop it from happening again?

    You were inside Archosaur? The leading cause of catshop death is someone leading a boss into the city, usually one with some sort of aoe. Sometimes it's by accident, since most bosses don't deaggro until the one they're chasing dies. Most of the time it's someone being a soggy waffle and doing it on purpose to kill catshops.

    This event is technically pretty rare, I think you just had a bit of bad luck on the timing. It doesn't happen often, from my knowledge. :) You'll just have to try again tomorrow.

    I've already wondered about dead catshops but never knew how that happens... I always thought that were GM's that spawned Bosses inside Archosaur b:chuckle
    How can people bring bosses to Archosaur?! On other zones with catshops, like Snowy Village it looks easier to people bring bosses to there, but inside Archo?!!! b:question

    The place I most often see dead catshops is Angler's Village, with Chin being the most likely proximate cause (Cenminator's a possibility, but with most world bosses spending most of their time dead these days, that's unlikely.)

    Lol hehe it happens man :3

    I remember this time some dude in red name flew near the guards of arch and set up catshop just a lil ahead of them.

    Awesomeness ensues XD the guards were attacking but he being in catshop mode had just "resist " showing in the attack log hehe
