Resurrect (action)


 * For the skill "Resurrect", see Resurrect

Colloquially abbreviated as "res" or "rez", Resurrection means to bring a dead ally back to life. Resurrection is important when playing the game because it enables a party to recover a fallen member during the heat of battle, or at the worst case, have an opportunity at disaster-recovery when the party is nearly wiped out. One of the most annoying experiences in the game is when a party survives a near wipe-out experience, only to discover that the survivors do not have resurrection skills.

Resurrection Shrines offer resurrection services in explorable areas (but not in missions) as well as in some PvP scenarios. Players and pets can also be resurrected when a mission cutscene that brings the party together occurs. Resurrection shrines can be found on the mission map in the form of an ankh symbol.

Some resurrection skills are more useful than others depending on the situation. Read the description and notes for each skill to find out when they are most useful.

Elementalists who are also Monks or Ritualists can use Glyph of Sacrifice or Glyph of Essence to resurrect players instantly. This is especially useful in PvP, making it impossible to interrupt the resurrection spell itself (though the Glyph could be interrupted).
