I was zoning out of Karnors Castle during a train and my tank died. Baranx
When I zoned back in, Baranx's corpse was visible about 10 feet away in the middle of the hall. He consented me so I could drag it closer to the wall away from the train path.

I was unable to drag his corpse and got the message "too far away to summon this corpse" even when I stood right next to it. So I instead decided to try rezzing him and it worked.
When he zoned in, I saw him for a second and suddenly disappeared and he was dying again. He told me he zoned in underwater and got aggro.

So to me, it looked liked I was rezzing a corpse at the zone in, when in fact his "real" corpse was in the moat.

I tried zoning out/in again, and also relogging hoping it might get fixed but his corpse still appeared in the same spot at zone in even though it was not. When I moved near the moat, then I was able to drag the corpse finally, and when I rezzed him again he appeared normally.

Very weird bug I have never seen this one before, and unfortunately it caused unnecessary death and exp loss.

Thats not a bug actually, that sometimes happen when you Client doesnt get the Server update from where the corpse was when you zoned, and where it is now when you zoned back.

Quick fix, relog or zone again to try and refresh the real loc of the body. Otherwise what you see is just a ghost corpse, and where he resses is the real location.
