Posted December 12, 2012 Seems silly that they would just die of old age and just be left there to rot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2012 -1, they are a good source of free alignment when needed, and sometimes people gear their tower guards. A corpse with a weapon is a lot easier to find, than a weapon stuck in the ground. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 12, 2012 Anything that reduces the disturbing amount of human corpses littered around the landscape is a good thing.Walk up, select shovel, click bury. Total quantity of corpses reduced by one, random angst reduced by 5. Every single thing a person can do does not need to be hard coded into the game for the game to do for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2012 -1, they are a good source of free alignment when neededI was just thinking this when I read the title of this thread, I had had a new toon that I was going to turn into a follower, turned out I had needed alignment, grabbed my shovel, buried a guard and that was that lol. Does help in a pinch. And as Belthize already said, there is this thing called a shovel, and it can be used to bury the corpses if you don't like the looks. I see no reason for the dev team to spend time working up the code to make it so guards bury each other when you can just bury them yourself and you get alignment from it.-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2012 I think this is a neat feature if anything, fellow guards giving there respects to a fallen comrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 12, 2012 Given that we can equip guards, my inclination is to say no. I'd rather have guard corpses to strip than random piles of armor and weapons. Besides, alignment.I know our deed is littered with corpses because my dad had a run in with a troll D: I'll fix it (or Eudoxia can for alignment -- once every 30min remember!) when I get home.

Posted December 12, 2012 -1Do not want guards stealing my alignment possibilities. You have a shovel and you get a benefit for it. Use it.How about instead we get the guards to stop watching their friend get killed by mobs while they stuff their face with foraged lunch? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2012 -1 to autoburying because of the reasons already mentioned. Mind you, I don't see why they need to get old and die of age at all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
