Ever so often we need to be reminded that some people don’t know as much as we do. This is not their fault, it is our fault for not explaining. We assume that if something is common knowledge among our peers it is know by everyone.
I read this post today and had a good laugh. The poor guy was really hurting and I got the idea that his friend was rolling on the floor. He brought a low level to get the high ore for a ravenous sword. After finding the ore he left him with the pick to go hunt.
He got back a few minutes later and asked, “You got it?” Meaning the ore. Answer, “No, no sword, I keep getting this ore. Rats I’m at 300% I need to drop some.” So I’m not making the same error as his friend I’ll explain this. The ore is use to make the sword. The ore is heavy and cannot be dropped. Because you cannot move items in your inventory when your at 300% burden you cannot even equip your wand.
