Respawn points

Respawn point in Alpha-2.

Non-corrupt players always respawn at the closest active respawn point (to their death).

• Corrupt players respawn at random locations in the vicinity of their death, not at regular spawn points.
• There will not be custom respawn points that can be placed in the world.
• Events in progress may disable certain respawn points in proximity to those events, which might cause players to respawn further away.

That has to do with the lore behind death and resurrection and what it means to have your soul connected as a conduit of that spark of life given from the Goddess of Creation, being that phoenix type of avatar; and if corruption has moved into an area and an event has started, the access to those ley line oriented respawn points may be obscured- might not be accessible. So that could create some additional distance that needs to be traveled as part of these types of events. – Steven Sharif

復活背景故事

Alpha-2 player death animation.

The lore behind how death and resurrection exists within Ashes of Creation is the concept of this Avatar of the Phoenix being represented of the Goddess of Creation, from which all life on this plane has has come from essentially... Because when you do get reborn it's that connection with your soul to the essence that binds you with the Goddess of Creation that brings that spark of the of that Avatar of the Phoenix back and brings you to life through that manipulation of the essence. So this is a little update on the ash effect. – Steven Sharif

Characters entering into the world of Verra are empowered with the spark of life that comes from the Goddess of Creation. This spark houses a portion of what represents their mortal coil/soul and their conduit to The Essence. When a character dies they disintegrate into ashes, in accordance with the mythology of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth that is associated with the celestial avatar of the Goddess of Creation, the phoenix.

• The ash pile conveys the location of the body, so that the character may be selected for resurrection.
• The ash pile is also interractible to allow players to loot any dropped items.
  • These ash piles are immediately lootable by any player.
  • 玩家標記 is not triggered by looting.
• This effect applies to players and not mobs.

The reason for why respawning occurs, as you guys know, the avatar of the Goddess of Creation is the phoenix; and the phoenix obviously has some very stable mythological lore to it with regards to the cycle of life and death and rebirth; and that type of thing. As you enter into the world of Verra you are in a way empowered with the spark of life that comes from the Goddess of Creation herself, and in that sense you're able to house a portion of what that represents in your soul and your... conduit to the essence. – Steven Sharif

Death penalties

Alpha-1 — 於戶外地下城死亡。

We don't have deleveling, instead what we have is experience debt. Now the more experience debt you accrue, the greater the detriment to your character; not to the point where you can not get out of the debt. There will always be a way forward to remove your debt. – Steven Sharif

玩家死亡時會化為灰燼。灰燼中包含玩家因死亡懲罰而掉落的物品。 任何玩家都可以即時拾取灰燼。 拾取灰燼不會觸發玩家標記。

• 非戰鬥員 (綠色玩家) 死亡時，將遭受一般懲罰，包括：
  • 損失經驗值 (負數經驗值)。
    • 技能和數值減弱。
    • 生命力和法力減少。
    • 裝備熟練度減少。
    • 怪物物品掉落率減少。
  • 耐久度減少。

  When players die and they take durability loss, our durability loss isn't like other games where it's a gold sink so to speak. It's a combination of both a gold sink and a material sink. So in a sense, even if you only have completed items, when you take that durability loss you are losing out on materials. It's just a debt to the materials that you are losing instead of the active loss of that material in your inventory. So now you are accruing a material debt if you want to repair and increase again the performance of those particular items that take that durability loss. – Steven Sharif

  • 掉落背包內的部分資源和已加工物品。
    • 亦會掉落部分狩獵證書
    • 玩家死亡時，騾隔一段時間才會消失。其他玩家可以擊殺騾來拾取身上的物品。
    • 騾死亡時，物品掉落的數量將與玩家死亡時相同。

• 戰鬥員 (紫色玩家) 遭受的死亡懲罰是非戰鬥員一半。
• 腐化 (紅色玩家) 遭受的死亡懲罰是非戰鬥員四倍，並根據目前的腐化值，有機會掉落背包內或裝備中的物品。 包括：
  • 掉落武器和裝備。
  • 能被其他玩家拾取。
  • 腐化玩家將在死亡位置附近的隨機地點復活，而不是一般重生點。
    • 非腐化玩家總會在距離死亡位置最接近的重生點復活。
  • 因腐化而遭受的能力減弱只影響 PvP 對戰。

滿等角色死亡時將損失約 2-3% 總經驗值 (未定)。

• As of May 28, 2021, the experience debt in Alpha-1 testing is "completely off mark" and will either be changed or disabled prior to the next spot test.

死亡懲罰將不適用於存在特定目標的活動 (例如商隊、公會戰、節點戰)。

There will not be death penalties applied to event-based deaths. The penalties are in the outcome of the event. So your number of deaths is likely going to impact your ability to win that particular event and that's going to be the penalty. This is it to encourage players to opt in to the events right because the more participation we have the more fun it can be; and we understand that the community at large- there's already a risk versus reward component to these events. We don't need to stack on additional risk versus reward to inhibit kind of- to increase the barrier to entry for players who may not be as interested. – Steven Sharif

• PvP 和 PvE 情況下死亡將遭受同樣的懲罰 (未定)。

玩家可能會遇溺而死。

• 角色死亡
