Thread: Jedi 3 Deaths and Rezzing a Jedi
Okay, I am not a jedi but havequestion. If a Jedi is out somewhere with a doctor and dies, 1)Can a Doc rez him? 2) Does this count as one of the three deaths for the perma-death puposes?
I ama Doc and would like to know.
they could have changed it...doesn't seem they care to communicate anything before, so why would we expect them (devs) to start now :/
anyways, i know that it used to be one..i tested it, but seeing as i'm now working on apprentice i don't care to test it again 
It would be good if it didn't count, however, it makes me wonder, if you get rezzed 3 times, does it still count as your 3 lives ? Just no skill loss until you die and clone? IE, IF you haven't lost a life yet, then you get rezzed 4-5 times, and no clone-releasing, does it count still? hmm
Someone who unlocked today should try.

Reviving is healing you so you get up from incapacitation.
Resurrecting you is bringing you back from the DEAD. So you obviously should lose a life.
Unless I am misreading it, I've read numerous threads on this, this is how it works...
When you die, whether you are rezzed or not, it counts towards you death total, that said, you don't lose your character til you actually go to a clone booth. So you can be on your 800th death and as long as a doc rezzes you, your fine.
So you still only get so many free deaths but you can die as many times as you like so long as you don't have to clone.
I am pretty sure that is how it is currently working...

I suggest you read up on rezzing since bringing someone back from death makes no sense.
According to the official definition (read the doc skill tree), rezzing is the act of bringing someone back from the BRINK of death.
By this OFFICIAL definition, you're not actually creating Frankenstein (bringing the dead back to life), but you're actually performing emergency procedures to save the guy before he actually dies.
If you'll notice, there is a time limit (supposedly) on rezzing. You can't sit there dead for an hour and be rezzed. You actually have to be rezzed within a certain amount of time or you WILL die and then cannot be rezzed anymore.
So... it doesn't make sense that a Jedi loses a life because the Jedi didn't die... he just got close to dying. As such, rezzing shouldn't count towards the death toll.

Arian, when you get DBed it says "CORPSE of xxxxx" last time I checked only people called corpses were dead people...and in your post you even say that "...you cant sit there DEAD for a long time..." so you DO die...the documentation is wrong...you are brought back to life when a doc ressusitates you...
We can argue technicalities all day...Im not saying I like it...Im saying it makes sense that we lose a life when we have the word CORPSE over our heads...and notice I said OUR...Im an Initiate also not some hater...
Btw congrats...was in the Warren with you that time you were camping the containers for keys...lol...what a bitch that was huh? Send me a PM and we can swap tactics to keep us alive.
Yes Jedi can get rezzed, Yes it does count against their total. Yes it does suck, but if it didn't work that way then we'd have lots of Master Jedi.
I work in an emergency room. People can be 'clinically' dead, and then be 'resurrected' afterwards. They're still dead fora min or two.
Then there's 'legally' dead, which is when a clinician oficially declares someone gone and the time of expiration appears on a certificate. This is much more fun because it can ONLY be declared by a physician or 2 nurses (in my state, your state may vary). So someone could be totally decapitated on the side of the road, but they won't be 'legally' dead until a coroner or 2 highly skilled medics show up on scene to declare the patient gone (despite the fact that their head is on the other side of the street).
