I have seen some Good-aligned clerics say, "Bah, no soul stone. Anyone have a scroll?" (yes...really), I have seen clerics pay it absolutely no attention and I have seen clerics cast raise/resurrect without RPing beforehand but then RPing the after-effects of XP loss as a temporary weakening and an admonition to the raised to start carrying soul stones.
Does this means that clerics that uses a scroll, no matter what is the deity alignment receives no xp penalty? I was wondering cause yesterday Tyillaan used a scroll to raise zig on a quest and she lost xp.
Why should a good aligned cleric take a hit to cover what is in 9 out of 10 cases is someone else not caring? Just because you are good doesn't mean you have to be a sucker.
I have raised lots of players of quests and outside when they didn't carry soulstones. Sometimes I have lectured them afterwards, sometimes not.If it is a new player I dont - much - mind, but when its experienced players and it evolves into a pattern of not carrying or paying attention to soulstones, then it is quite frankly nothing but disrespect towards your fellow players.
On the point of roleplaying. I have quite often experienced - both on and of quests - that when I kneel down to pray before raising then someones gets impatient and pulls a scroll out, instead of waiting a moment.
