Let us hearth out of dungeons when KO'd

Post by jordancoles »

Currently you can't hearth after being KO'd in a dungeon and so you need to stand up again to attempt to walk outside

If you get an endless bat spawn, you can just be reKO'd over and over again until death

Pls fix

I think it is a good thing.
There should be some risk involved in doing dungeons!

But you can always log out and then respawn at your hearth.

This is either a bug but I don’t think this applies to dungeons since you are always logged in until otherwise noted...

I somewhat agree and not. I had a situation where a block of beaver wood was allowing passage in one direction only. On top of that, it was on deep water, so I was keep being smashed by white beavers until I almost died because I couldn't do anything. One might argue my fault of not destroying the block but it allowed perfectly going in but not out. So I blame game for that. Lesson learn anyway.

Maybe at 5th or 10th K.O why not?

No, you can't, you don't get the option to respawn at your h/f ... at least I never have, I just spawned straight back in on the same spot.

The thing is ... you can log out to avoid death, problem being you can't log back in unless someone clears the dungeon, or at the least can clear the bats around you, which if you were ko'd in the middle of a swarm of respawning bats is unlikely. You can't always run and draw them out a bit as when there are a huge number surrounding you, you get stuck and can't move, it's even worse if you get trapped against a cliff, which happened to me, twice, as you can't fight either. I was lucky in that I did have someone there who could clear me a path out at least, but some of those rooms are lethal!

I kinda feel the options of death or not being able to play, if you value your char, is a bit much ... sort of like when concussion was first introduced and a bad knock meant no play for a week until you could heal properly. You should imo, at least have the option to escape, when ko'd, and abandon the dungeon.

I have rescued a weak player from a dungeon before. It was fun. It would be sad to see this go.

Possibility to go back to HF when KOed is a must. It's definitely too easy to die there. Maybe make a wound similar to concussion, but worse when you get KOed in dung. Harder to heal. Anything except trapping people with 1 hp in dungeons xD
