Re: Legendary inactives

If this item is that uniqe and that legendary, why is it acquired through simple, tedious repetition, i.e. killing the same beast mob 5000 times until the rare chance of the unique item dropping happens? That's dumb.

If the game is the least bit roleplaying-enforced or encouraged, the item needs to be pilfered from the inactive player (using discretion based on the amount of time gone, whether that player's IP is around playing alts, etc.), because in a RPI/RPE game, there's no IC explanation about where people go when they log off. Suddenly, a noteworthy individual is never seen or heard from again, is completely imposible to locate, and his impossibly poweful and unique magical artifact that defies all forms of detection (and clearly insn't being used since the effects of the item would be heard about) is gone with him?

If it's not a roleplaying mud, just clone the item. Who cares if there's two if there's no in character story that needs to be upheld? Especially if one will probably never be seen again.
