Death
Death
Aye it happens. A few words on this. The wandering healers you will find around Britannia wear yellow robes. They will not see you (as a ghost) unless you are in combat mode. If you forget, and go into combat mode while next to them, they still wont see you. Just run offscreen and run back to them in combat mode, you should be able to res.
Hint: If you run offscreen and back to them several times they will heal you too :O)
DEATH TAX:
Also I want to make you aware that there is skill loss upon death. Death cannot be without penalty. There is a 50% chance of 1% loss per skill. This means that if you had Tactics, Swordsmanship and Parry as your primary skills, there is a 50% chance that each skill could drop from 100 to 99. This will happen only once per hour, so multiple deaths in the same situation will not take away more than 1%. Your skills will come back in time slowly, or you can buy them back. Also, you can get ressed or cured at shrines.
Note: Every newbie gets one get out of death FREE card. So the first time you die, you wont get any skill loss.
You will soon hear characters around you talking about 'Death Taxes' in Wod. You will see from the above that upon death in WoD you WILL loose skills. In WoD "Death Taxes" are basically the gold that you will need to spend to rebuy the skills that dropped when you died. To pay them, simply start around to the various NPC's and drop gold on each one & rebuy your skills to the level that you want them to be at. The amount that you pay will depend on the skill loss hit that you took, and it can add up. For an experienced player that has his/her all skills fully maxed out this can easily total up to 20 or 30K everytime you die.
