i have a problem with reincarnation of my druid and was wondering if i could get a DMs help. earlier in the week i began reincarnating my druid. so i recreated her, but later in the week (within the reincarnating period) i decided to re-do. so i dumped her gear in the bank storage chest, and using the scry i deleted her & remade her from scratch. but when i went to grab her gear in the storage chest it wasnt there. no warning it would be gone, no nothing account: briareos01 character name: Delphyne (her actual name before the last deletion was " Delphyne") please let me know if any other information is needed. hoping i can get my gear back. otherwise this really, REALLY sux

if you placed your items in the presistant player chest (opposed to transfer chest) you can simply remake the toon, with the same name, and can hunt it down.

I'm not clear exactly how we could've warned you that if you delete a character their gear will be gone, since the chest has no way of knowing what you are planning. In the future, use the Transfer chest instead. Anyway, like king said, you need to make a new character with the exact same name. The same-name antiexploit will prevent you from logging in with that character until the first reset after 24 hours have passed, but that that point you'll be able to access the chest. Funky

well at least the gear is recoverable, thx for letting me know
in answer to your question, Funky, in retrospect it seems when one is about to delete a toon in a situation like this, a warning could help, especially for someone tired & forgetful as i was at the time. over the course of a few days, i sometimes forget where i put items. maybe it could be a message similar to the one you get at the reinc pedestal. but since theres a remedy (which kc provided), this probably isnt necessary. ;D

i havent fully resolved this yet... i was at a hotel when i deleted the toon with the items in the personal storage chest, and have now re-made the toon " Delphyne". how do i get access to that chest now that i am at home? otherwise i will have to wait until i get back to the hotel next week... *cringes for next flurry of comments*

oye... as long as the new toon has the 'exact' same name, capitalization's, SPACES etc verbatim then you will be able to get into the same transfer chest.
