Recent edit: "This area can also be used as a store-room for lower level characters, as items left here do not disappear".

Umm... Isn't that the case for every area in the game (except containers you don't own)? Drop an item on the ground and it will stay indefinately (except in places that reconfigure, such as Benirus Manor or Bruma Mages guild).

Or does the message refer specifically to the "hollowed-out-rock"? Wouldn't it act the same as all dead-drop locations? ^{—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Vlad the Imperial (talk • contribs).}

Items usually don't disappear if they lie on the ground, this counts for all areas in the game. However glitches are rumoured to occur where items would fall through the ground, personally I've never seen an item disappear. Some areas are not safe because you will never be able to visit them again. For example the Bruma Mages Guild Interior prior to the attack is a different area than the area after the attack. They just have the same design.

I think the message doesn't refer to the "Hollowed Out Rock" container, but it could be changed to do so. Most of the containers in Oblivion are not safe, so it wouldn't hurt mentioning the containers that are safe. This note could be added to all Dead Drop containers. --Timenn 09:41, 12 October 2007 (EDT)

I deleted the tip. It's really not clear what is supposed to be the "store room"; if someone wants to investigate the dead drops and add more specific information about safe storage (including confirmation of what happens during the quest), then perhaps the tip would be useful. I'm also somewhat skeptical about the usefulness of storage that's in the middle of nowhere, so IMO the recommendation was overly strong. --Nephele^Talk 03:15, 16 October 2007 (EDT)
