    Yea, its very rare, but I think you can still lose items being white named.

    I remember killing a white-named Cleric and the player dropped Do-All Cards a few months back.

    its possible. Rare, but possible. Check the games basic info under PvP tab, I think it says there that there's a .1 or .01% chance of dropping an item while white named.

    Its not just in pvp either. I personally saw a white-named bm drop his gold FC wep after we got wiped at one of the bosses in FC. I didn't believe it could happen before I saw that.

    According to that you can only drop inventory items tho, not equipped ones.

    The pwi website has out of date info. Blue names cannot drop items at all.

    You sure Asterelle ? Did they change it ?

    I remember having my stash of mp pots dropped on my wiz while beeing blue named and killed by a mob. granted, that's over a year ago, but still ...

    really really freaked me out when I dropped some gear out of inv on my archer 2 days later too while beeing blue named.

    that's when I got myself a binding charm and bound the only thing on my main that was worth it at the time, the wings ...

    but never happened since, so guess it could be

    On an extra painful note, if you are white and safety locked, you can shatter!

    And I mean white, non-combatent no swords just got oneshot by sin WHITE.

    So *** lol.

    I had heard the blue-name droprate was removed, but I've also heard it came back. Maybe the jury is out on this one.

    But something is messed up with the PK system. I never do open PK, but I do play the cube. On one occasion the other day, I began to notice that I couldn't tab-target anyone in PK-enabled rooms such as Room 11. Then I got to room 14 and a wizard entered shortly after me. I died quickly after failing to target him at all. Out of curiosity I PMed the guy just to see if he knew wtf was wrong with my tabbing system; he told me it was my PVP settings, and that I should uncheck "White Named Players" from my immunity list. I did this and the problem was solved... but what's weird is, I never messed with that setting before, and I could always tab-target people in such areas. I suspect the last patch did something. >_>

    On another occasion, my sin found himself in room 14 as well, negotiating with a BM already in the room to try and attack the next person to come by. The next person who showed up was another sin, much higher than mine. I attacked anyway thinking the BM would back me up - no such luck. I saw the other sin spark and next thing I knew, I was in room 1 again... but for some reason I was pink named. This only lasted for maybe 5-10 seconds before I was bluenamed again, but it was still weird. Maybe this, too, got changed in the last patch.

    Indeed. That's the kind of thing that happens when you can't think up your own Faction name....Karma's a real kind of nasty thing, isn't she? b:chuckle

    Regarding the above poster's events....it wouldn't shock me that they "fixed" PvP too.....

    When safety lock protection was added the GMs said the chance for blue names to drop was removed.

    In the last year Ive seen hundreds of squad mates die in 3-3, BH, nirvana, WBs, etc. Lots of times especially fail people die like 10 times in a row. When GMs spawned harpy during the WB event people were dying by the dozens. Even during the arch event you see like 20-30 dead players around Dismal Duke.

    Not once in the time since safety lock protection was added have I seen a blue name drop anything on death. If there was just a 1% chance that a blue name can drop something on death I would have seen it.

    I remember dropping an item as a blue name when I first started. Thank god PWI at least had the mercy to change that. And I am with Asterelle, I have not seen any evidence (nor information) of this being reversed. Nor do I think PWI would ever change this back. It would hurt them more in terms of losing support than benefiting them in the long run (in my opinion at least, though anything is possible).

    Either that or people invest in GAs heavily rofl. I haven't seen any blue names drop either since like 2009 and it was from like a 1-x squad.

    Fashion, in wardrobe or equipped, does not drop. PK'd myself to get red name and then spent the next few hours making sure they didn't drop while red named. Only fashion items in your inventory will drop.

    I like how nobody seemed remotely concerned that you can shatter as an innocent whitename just because you have SL on.

    wtf lul.
