When you fall

You have 35 seconds in the guttering. A friend can bring you back; if not, or if you choose not to wait, you wake at your bind point.

When your health runs out you fall, and the screen tells you that you are in the guttering, with a countdown. For the next 35 seconds (5 while you fall, then 30 as a corpse) you can still be saved.

  1. Wait for help. Anyone with a resurrection power can bring you back where you lie. See Resurrection.
  2. If nobody comes, you wake at your bind point when the countdown ends. See Where you wake.
  3. If you would rather not wait, press F once you lie still to give up the rest of the countdown and wake at your bind point at once. Nobody can bring you back after that.

What you lose

  • Your backpack stays on your corpse. Anyone can loot it, including you when you get back.
  • What you were wearing and wielding stays with you. Your gear is never lost to death, except in the Deep.
  • There is no experience penalty.
  • Your corpse lasts 30 minutes.
