The classic I never knew

[Daldaen]

Levels 1-8 on a Paladin/SK/Ranger you would have 0/0 Mana.

When you dinged level 9, your mana would slowly start creeping up. Man do I remember being so immersed in my Half-Elf Paladin in a Blackburrow seeing that mana bar start to fill. My character is so magical now!!!

Yeah, at 35 you no longer had to look at the book. It was heaven!

I would love to be able to make one of my characters

I vaguely remember the /loot function in early classic as a function to allow someone to loot your corpse, instead of dragging. My father, who played at the time, got pissed off one day because a rogue looted his corpse and then camped down in Sol b.

They didn't keep that function in for very long if i remember correctly.

While the command allowed another person to loot your corpse was still in the game, it had deeper repercussions as a mechanic. After the Guise of the Deceiver had been nerfed but before the /consent mechanic changed, a person could kill their character to make an equipped corpse. Then you log to character creation screen. You delete the character. You then make a brand new level 1 character with the same name. Enter the game, and you could loot the corpse of the previous character, INCLUDING NO DROP items.

For some people this was a big deal in that they got a Guise on a character that they had 'buyer's remorse' over and really wish they were playing a different class entirely.
