Death

See also: Ghost, Game Information

True death is a complicated process in the world of Dofus, for the adventurers have greater powers than regular mortals. Three levels of protection guard them from the spirit world.

Tier 1: Hit points
A character remains fighting in battle as long he has HP left. Epic levels, high vitality and powerful equipment can make a character victorious where a lesser fighter would be wiped out.

When a character's HP reaches 0, he falls and is removed from combat.

Tier 2: Companions
Even when a character is no longer able to fight, he still has a chance. As long as the rest of his side of the battle triumphs, he can recover. All it takes is a single friend standing when the enemy is defeated to guarantee safety.

If all friendly characters fall, the battle is lost.

Tier 3: Energy
''Note: This applies only to hostile combat. In non-hostile combat there is no risk of death, so the characters will not expend energy to recall.''

When the battle is irreversibly lost, one line of defense remains. A character with sufficient energy will expend part of it to teleport back to the last saved Zaap, or the Class Statue of his deity in Astrub if no save has been recorded.

The energy consumed is 10 per character level, 10 per alignment level, and 100 per alignment rank. Neutral characters count as alignment level 0, alignment rank 1. Being defeated when fighting a Perceptor costs an additional 3000 points.

When your energy points reach 0, you become a tombstone.

''Note: Characters losing an aggression against a neutral character on neutral territory (i.e. knight present) are not killed. Instead, they are sent to jail to atone for their crimes.''
