#29609, "Why did this happen?"


          

Been playing plenty every other day at least(including earlier today) and out of the blue...

wilderness <100%hp 100%m 78%mv 7760tnl (3.00%)>
A silver chain flail crumbles into dust.
A flame blade crumbles into dust.
A potion of invisibility has evaporated from disuse.
A potion of return has evaporated from disuse.
A shimmering blue potion has evaporated from disuse.
An oil of sight has evaporated from disuse.
A shimmering blue potion has evaporated from disuse.
A metal canteen insulated in a wolves pelt crumbles into dust.
A black iron broadsword crumbles into dust.
A makeshift wooden trunk crumbles into dust.
A silver-shod mallet marked with an angel crumbles into dust.
An iron two-handed sword crumbles into dust.
A chain flail crumbles into dust.

Prayed but got not response. Why did this happen?

There are a few places where dropping items/gear causes them to crumble. Several shrines used to do this as well.

Dropped them all within the Aryth for about a minute while I walked by a thief to see if they would blackjack me. I didn't want them to empty my inventory.

I love irony.

Anytime you drop something underwater it will crumble later.

You can thank cheaters. Run to Aryth. Find a secluded spot. Tell friend 'It's 2e4s2w3s2d from Hamsah'. Remove all. Drop all.

I've dropped a number of things underwater and expected them to crumble, and they never did (in over 50 real hours).

I think some places might be exceptions to this, or maybe that you can drop stuff as long as you don't leave it there too long. Something like that, anyway.
