Talk:Death

the spend 50ap to contact a shamen applies to outsiders and natives so I took out the "an outsider" right before spirt.

Questions

Q. When you say that a spirit can move freely, do you mean movement costs no AP?

A. Movement does cost AP, what it means is you can travel through jungle that you would have to chop first without the need to chop.I have no clue what it means for water however, it may still take 2 ap to travel through. -- Daylan

Both water and swamp only take 1 AP when dead. --Dr. J

Does movement through jungle with the trekking skill cost 1AP or 1/2? -- Daylan

According to Jackel's note on the Suggestions page, Trekking doesn't work when you're a spirit. --Lint 03:48, 7 March 2006 (GMT)

Q. What actions can a spirit perform?

A. With no skills you can only move, refresh, and contact shamen to get revived for 50ap, looking at the skills page it would seem that you can get skills to talk and a skill to scream whatever the use of that is.-- Daylan

I have been able to enter and leave a hut as a spirit. :D --Lint 03:48, 7 March 2006 (GMT)

A. Futhermore, the movement while a spirit does NOT appear to update on the player's map. A logical, if frustrating fact.--Jackel 01:40, 6 March 2006 (GMT)

Q. Is there any punishment for death? Lost items? Lost experience?

A. As far as I could tell, I lost no xp or items when I died so the only "punishment" is having to spend ap to goto a shamen, ethier by spending 50ap or moving to the closest village and getting revived. -- Daylan

My character, which died from an untreated shark bite, is still wounded after being revived. --Lint 03:48, 7 March 2006 (GMT)

Thank you both. --Lint 19:13, 26 February 2006 (GMT)

Haunting Scream Tree

Q. Are you earning XP for the damage you deal with Haunting scream / Shocking shriek / Banshee wail? --Lint 23:43, 18 April 2006 (BST)

Q. If yes. Is that XP consistent with combat-earned XP in that attacking your own type only earns 1/2 XP? --Lint 23:43, 18 April 2006 (BST)

Revival at other towns/villages

Can anyone confirm that a player can be revived at another town/village? My York scientist is currently a spirit, and not even very close to York, yet when I try to "contact a shaman", I am told that Kahuni (the NPC shaman at York) is currently trying to become a non-spirit himself, and can't revive me. I can't see any option that would allow another shaman to revive me, so I wonder how it can be done. --Jackel 01:44, 6 March 2006 (GMT)

This is definitely possible, I have done it myself. All you need to do is find another village/settlement and then stand over the shamen. --Dr. J 01:46, 6 March 2006 (GMT)
