I FOUND ILBIS. Ok, so I sorta' found them. -

Ok this is what happened. La la la, training at Wolf Spiders in an empty map, been there for oh about 2 hours or so. WHAM! All these people from a certain guild come in and start killing freely, shoving me off to the side. I don't say anything (I usually don't) and continue training on my own hoping they won't KS me directly. There were 2 Hermits, 1 F/P Mage, and 2 DKs. So I'm shooting the spiders off of the middle platform when one hermit comes swooping down and KSs me and kills the Spider. Ilbis drop. My heart almost stopped. I wasn't sure, was it my kill? I flash jumped to investigate and to my horror, I couldn't pick it up. The Hermit had been knocked off and was coming back to retrieve his goods. I was frantically pressing 'Z' to pick it up but to no avail.

So, the Hermit came back and jumped for the stars. It's over, i thought to myself, he got them. Then, LULZ. He can't pick them up either. Turns out the group were not in a a party and someone else had damaged the spider. I dash over to the Ilbis and continue to press 'Z' as fast as Lindsey Lohan gets drunk/high (really fast I would assume) and YES, I picked them up. The Hermit stopped, and got hit and died. LOL! He shouted, "HE STOLE MY ILBIS, DEFAME HIM" to his cronies and I proceeded to make my escape with the "goods". I jumped down to the lower platform and CC'd at lightening speed. I ran back to NLC and admired my new "steal". My hands were actually shaking. It was the best experience ever on Maple, I burst into laughter.
