    Being a ghost is a painfull reminder that dying in SotA hurts a lot.
    The worse thing could be the fact that one has to go from a dead body to an ankh, sometime far far away, or maaybe the fact that one can't use doors, ladders etc... despite being a ghost... But no, to me the worse is to be overencumbered as a ghost!

    This makes no sence, I genuinely think being a ghost is already way too much punitive, why worsening it by losing the ability to carry weight? I mean a ghost is not evolving on the material plane, why would it be overencumbered?

    Can you please consider fixing it?

    Thanks!

    that's deliberate: there was a whole spate of people killing themselves to bypass weight restrictions. chris called them ghost truckers.

    ...and i don't think dying in sota hurts even a little. you don't lose items, you don't lose xp (any more), you don't lose gear durability if you can get a rez or to an ankh, you don't even lose your food.

    Damn those people! It's like dungeon mob loot...
    Sure you don't lose all those things (yet?), but ankhs can be very far, and when PvP fishing for example it's always very painfull and takes minutes to join the ankh in Brave Coast.
