So today I was in Ruins of Surmia missions with my friend and we were waiting around at the end and i decided i wanted to see what my 20 celestial oxes looked like lying on the ground. so i dropped them all, took a screen because it looked cool, started picking them up, and then... CUTSCENE. Lost 8 celestial oxes all unded. this is not a QQ thread, im not blaming anyone but myself. it was stupid and i paid for it. just warning everyone else, dont do this sort of thing! something bad will happen! i'm over it, i mean it's just a game, but still, it sucked. so just be careful!

Moral of the story: Don't carry multiple minipets for no reason?

Yes it was dumb, and yes i learned my lesson. I was with someone ive been playing the game with for about 3 years so i had no worries about him stealing it. go cubs why no point? im warning people not to do something stupid like this. and i had that many because that char is my mule and i was holding them in hopes they go up in the future like other celestial pets. i think the moral of the story is dont drop your valuables in an explorable area.

as for the screeny:

Mourn not the lost, though they will not grow old.

Sorry you lost your piggies, but you'll be laughing about some day as much as I am now.

I know people drop items all the time to make patterns, screenies etc, but why the hell did you chose a mission? and at the end of it as well?

To OP:

Do you watch NBA? You know when a player successfully shoots the ball in a free throw, there is a sound that will be played like:

ta - na - na - nan ta - nan (i hope you understand what im saying).

Where I came from, the put words into that music so you would feel how good that music is. Here are the words that we put in that sound:

bu - ti - na - lang ta - nga.

And we will just laugh at it.

sorry for ur experience but let me just sing this to you:

bu - ti - na - lang ta - nga.

at first this made me laugh just cause of the shear stupidity, then i saw the SS with Rurik saying "Mourn not the lost..." which just got an even bigger laugh, lol.

I actually did something similar before when I finally found a perfect Strength and Honor inscription, and it just came to my head, I wonder what an inscription looks like when its dropped?

hehehe

I honestly lol'd, I mean I'm sorry for your loss but that was funny xD

PS: I did drop all my stuffs stupidly when I'm with my friend, like yesterday I dropped Obsidian Edge on the ground, around HoD and little did I realized that he was running back toward the portal because he took a wrong skill without saying anything... needless to say, I picked it up as quickly as my reflex can give me.. -_-;

The purpose? I dunno, I want it to seems like, "OMG! I JUST GOT AN UNBELIEVABLE DROP!" moment.. cause my luck's suck.. >.>

Thanks for warning us not to drop stuff on the ground seconds before a cutscene.

I mean, it's not like I'm able to figure this out for myself.
