PSA Drop Transfer at your own Risk

[hagglebaby]

I've been experimenting with solo Shaman farming down in seb crypt but it's cumbersome to gate out with the loot and make my way back down solo. So I had the bright idea of drop xfer to a rogue bot at the safe spot and then hide/sneak the loot back out of the crypt.

Unfortunately I did this next to a full group. First I dropped two lumi staves. logged over easily with no hiccups but they were gone.

I then announced that I would be dropping a JBB and a Hiero Cloak and trying it again. I tried it again and those were also gone when i quickly logged over. maybe took a minute tops.

Soon after i alerted this full group that my stuff "poofed" one of the rogues went LD and a chanter gated and the group took a break to reform.

talking to a few friends, the consensus is that i'm a dumbass for attempting a drop transfer, especially in seb and especially near a full group. I left a petition in the forum, maybe I can get something back. Not the end of the world if i don't but this would be the biggest poof i've had. Just wanted to leave this here so maybe someone can get a chuckle out of my carelessness. perhaps a scoff. Maybe even a cringe
