I'm pretty sure, even in velious era, that below lvl 10 players kept their gear when they died. Alexapoda and I have been adventuring together, and we found out that at level 1, if you die you loose everything and it's on your corpse. Our bodies are now being camped by a Dark Assassin's patrol route, and we've lost everything! This wouldn't be an issue if we kept out stuff when we died, as we're only level 3 and 4.
