I didn't think I'd be getting that corpse back, honestly. I figured it was at the bottom of a strange pit filled with monsters, from which there may have been no return (save a port, and you have to uninvis to cast it -- and loot the corpse) and it was unlikely to get a cleric and maybe a high lvl melee to go down there and kill the bad guys, then rezz me, at least, not in the allotted rez time. I was ready to retire that character and just use him for ports and what not because I was so disheartened by the apparent loss of all of my equipment. But somehow, one of my groupmates ran around frantically summoning my corpse until he successfully got it, despite being wayyyyyyyyy they heck higher than it.

After coming back to loot that corpse is when I decided I was gonna heal our monk with no regard for my own life or that of my groupmates.

I guess what I'm saying is that I didn't gain any xp on this excursion.

Ah, great EQ experiences...I avoided/survived most of these because I was a monk and I always kept thurg gate pots on me...

I can't tell you how many times I would find myself in the most unsafe location of a dungeon flopping my way to safety or having to gate...
