He laughs, backs up a bit, then breaks into a full gallup, spear pointed at your head. You realise the terrible mistake you've made and begin running in the other direction.

    Alas! You're not fast enough! You need something to trip up Odin's horse's hooves quicklike. You begin shedding clothing and dropping them, hoping to create small clothlike foot traps.

    The last anyone sees of this brave pugilist Lalafell is a screaming ball of flesh streaking through the forest.

    Glad to hear that it was just misinformation.

    However, I will accept gear change for this reason.

    No, just NO!

    There'll be a million 'special cases' if SE do anything other than what they plane to do .. which is just FINE, the min/maxers seriously damaged FFXI with their Windower-required gear swap edicts, keep that sort of idiocy away from FFXIV.

    I think, sir, that you may have missed the jocular tone in which Llen's post was made. It should be plain to see that the last thing she would want to disrupt her peaceful fishing expeditions were random incursions by naked players into her serene environment. It would scare away the fish.

    I believe this is appropriate.
