I just came back to life... WAI?

[AlmGhandi]

So we were doing that lost signet quest. Of course I died (it was lag... honest!!! Anyway are the poison traps WAI?)

Whilst my guildy was trying to fight his way through to the shrines... suddenly I was alive again on 1hp. Is that something normal? Do I just have to wait a few minutes and then I can be alive again?!?!

Were you DEAD, like a ghost that could walk around? Or just laying there?

You go unconscious at 0 hit points, but don't ACTUALLY die until -10 hit points. While laying there, you will slowly bleed taking 1 point of damage every few seconds until you die, or 'stabilize' (a 10% chance every few seconds, you'll see the dice rolls). If you have the Diehard feat, you automatically stabilize.

Once you stop bleeding, you'll heal back up to 1 hit point in a minute or so.

I was dead and my guildy was carrying my soulstone...
It took a while to come back to life.

As a L5 druid he couldn't even have raised me by accident... :/

Edit: not that he wanted to raise me... he was enjoying being able to do stuff without my sorc destroying everything! lol!

Poison traps are not wai and will be fixed.

I had a similar issue last night in Fleshmakers, I was quad boxing and was able to complete so I dropped down into the warehouse optional area. I ended up wiping and released with all my toons and all of them had the splash screen. Except, my melee character didn't release, but he raised with one HP. I bounced around a bit but there was no way I could get out and I didn't have enough ability to use my teleport mask. So I died again. Oh well. Released. There I am again still in the warehouse with 1hp. Get the mask loaded double click it and die. Released. there I am again and die quickly. By this time I'm laughing. I release and I'm dead before the splash screen goes away. So I give up and bug report it and just quit the game. Almost scared to login to see all the damage my equipment took.

With all the DC and other stuff, it could be the system lost connection with your client. Odd things can happen when your client crashes, etc. and maybe you were seeing a mini-crash?
