All these dead players, how long is the Rez wait?

General Discussion Started Last reply 29 posts
5 hours? 10 hours? 24 hours???

Not saying any names, but someone whose name rhymes with "Wire Bone" was dead at 6am when I logged in Saturday, and was still dead at 11pm that night when I packed up my wand, closed up my shops and logged off for the night. He/she was not the only one.

This is seriously getting ridiculous!!! Looks like a good neigborhood, until you see the zombies littering the sidewalks.

I suggest a GM Rez Patrol, complete with a caduceus for a clan crest. They can roam around and provide "assistance" to these traumatized individuals wherever they find them across Aden and Elmore. :D :D :D
Your efforts are admirable but will be in vein.
Did you at least do the neighborly thing and read them a scroll?
I know people who have waited a very long time to get a brez....

30....45 mins tops even an Hour for the slow people but no one waits a whole day you can get the XP back faster then waiting that long....it is what it is. ;)
I had a friend pass out while we were lvling before. After about an hr of waiting we just decided to let him die to mobs.

This is why I make friends with EEs.

Just the other night I had to bring one in because someone had an emergency and didn't have time to log. One quick PR2 later...

I actually offered a rez when I first saw them, but they were nonresponsive.

I wouldn't have bothered with a blessed rez, because it wasn't a high level toon...maybe level 55 - 60, or so. They could easily gain back the lost XP.

Besides, I try to save my brez for folks who actually EARNED the XP that they just lost in the first place.
Oh I meant the cheapy kind of scroll.
A lot of times you read one to a long-terms sleeper and they'll pop right up, back to hunting with nary a word.

LOL - I think I was in the party with you when that happened...

But back on topic - we all know why the toon has been logged in dead for over 24 hours but NC doesn't.
Some players rather wait 12-24 hours for a brez than spend 20 minutes getting the exp back. I dunno, I guess for some players seeing the exp bar go up "for free" after a brez beats hunting mobs for 20 minutes and not seeing it move at all :p

Though I don't know why anyone would lie dead for so long these days since there's some neat brez tricks out there...
Some of them wait for high lvl bishop to rez them. Which is understandible at lvl 70. But is funny at lvl 40. You can regain the lost percents in few minutes - much quicker then the time waiting for the bishop to come.
Spys are dead for longer than 24 hours =O

Most farmers rez a toon within the hour or so.

In that case you res them then train them a number of times, then sit back and listen to them scream when they come back and find their level 50 toon is down to level 10. ;)
Usually I haven't hit the ground with my dwarf when I am back to CH to rebuff and go back hunting, SP farming FTW
Emm brezs do not take 12-14 hours to get.. we all know what this type of player was..
i remember the old ABG days when you would have to pk your party members when they feel asleep at the keyboard so they wouldn't drop to mobs

Recently with my bishop saw 2 dead toons in a low lvl catas. They were from IT alliance (Teon) so I guess they weren't bots. We offered a rez (30%) but they didn't use it. Providing they were somewhere near lvl 35 they could regain the lost exp in just 2 fights.

Ever heard of bots not accepting autorez?

Spys are not groups of 6 with BD 2 healers and BH all dead for hours

and most spys are naked ;)

yep when you train them everyday and then keep rezing them so they can die again they tend turn off auto rez becasue they know I will be back the next day 2 do it again. which is funny cause you come back and one of the bots is dead but they don't rez it becasue auto rez is off so they keep hunting with 1 dead member. :D

I was one of them. That one time, a year ago (I was only lvl 78) I died and waited 14 hours till someone with 80% rez ran by (while the alliance bishops were MIA). Of course I was not lying there all the time, just logged in and out periodically.

Yesterday I died due to a lag spike and happily clicked to clan hall (since no bishops were available at the moment). Lost just 6 hours worth of xp... not much, according to you.

My spies are not! :p

Well, I assumed they are not bots but of course I may be wrong. But it seems to me the bots don't go in couples in the catas. I usually see groups from at least 4 often 5. If their group was bigger and the controller moved the survivers this still doesn't explain while the dead left. Besides there may be a reason which I don't know but why well established alliance will use bots with its own emblem instead of using anon bots as everyone else?
I've found plenty of botters running just pairs, triples, even solo.

And whereas many will detag toons for leveling, you can be sure the established alliances have plenty of botters. They may not fit the "chinese goldfarmer" profile, but that doesn't mean they won't run a bot.

Farming rep points at those levels. And at higher lvls, some ppl dont just care. It is pretty common.

Exping bots are in duo/trio etc. Farmer groups are big. Difference between them: Exping bots try to get exp fast, farmers try to get it as slow as possible.
