cool story, grinded a new main for 3 days just to die to lag

[evilrich]

3 days isnt grinding. its curio feeding at best nowadays

[min_the_fair]

... I don't get why you died? Or is what you're not telling us that you actually died due to a combination of lag and (swimming-related) stupidity? I've lagged out in boats multiple times, and had my boat stolen out from under me twice, and am still not dead.

(OR, has something changed in the last couple of weeks? Do I risk death if it happens again?)

Burg drowned a 25 000 000 LP character due to lag.

i DC every time i get into a boat, how does that kill you ;/

[kLauE]

i mean almost 24/7 playing too, i had just found my first flotsam ;/

play more

[Moogie]

I've never lagged out/crashed out in a boat before, and don't see how that would kill you unless your boat magicaly disappeared too, but I think if I logged in to find I was standing on deep water my first instinct would be to mash my hearth-tele hotkey as quickly as possible.

booted during lag while lag-a-boating, gg

Ah... newbies. I love them. ^^ I'm one, too, only been on a month, but still. You'll learn you can lose much, much more.

[TeckXKnight]

The loss is honestly part of the game. We play understanding that permanent death is a major feature in Haven and Hearth. Whether you lose a brand new character or a well established character -- or your very village and home, it was always a feature broadly advertised and part of the fun of the game.
Sure, it's not perfect and it is disheartening when you lose it all but the world moves on and this feature continues to shape our HnH lives.
