Which means that she prepared to loot. Qeli did exactly the same.
> B: The guy he was making fun of was a lowbie who made a living looting people with good eq
Both Ohpie and Qeli are mid-level characters. Both of them were preparing to loot somebody out of range. I don't see a difference.
> C: The guy he was making fun of didn't have kickass gear way better than anything he'd be looting
First, you probably don't know it, second, it doesn't really matter. Greed id always a greed, no more, no less.
> Qeli simply got herself some detect invis action.
Yes, considering that there was no one around who could harm her, the point of this action is clear.
> If she wanted to loot, yellow flower is a bad choice (chance to weaken, thereby less loot, even if she does get the few invisible items).
Completely wrong. Yellow flower on her level has very small chances to weaken, and hero mages often wear alot of invisible items.
> Before this turns into a thread about why Qeli is bad and Calessin is good, I'm not Qeli, I've never been Qeli, I'll never be Qeli.
I don't care who are you playing, I am ready to argue about your comment irrespective of characters.
> I just hate to see a great line like Dhaevor's wasted on something where it doesn't even apply.
And I hate to see somebody not in range coming only to loot. That's why I put my comment here. My opinion is that this line finely describes the situation. Please express *your* opinion, and do not try to create an illusion of public opinion.
> Resist, next time, please.
I probably will not.
