Changes: Resurrect

Revision as of 19:41, 27 October 2007

To Resurrect is to bring a dead character back to life.

Any player may resurrect themselves by running back to their corpse as a ghost. Or, they may have a Spirit Healer do this at a graveyard for a penalty of increased durability loss and resurrection sickness. See Death for more information.

Several classes also have spells that can resurrect themselves or other player characters. Classes who can resurrect are highly sought after in groups. This is especially true for instances where mobs may respawn if too much time is wasted.

Classes Capable of Resurrecting

Druid: [Rebirth]. The Druid has the only in-combat resurrection spell, but is not capable of resurrecting an entire party due to the long cooldown time on this spell.
Paladin: [Redemption]
Priest: [Resurrection]
Shaman: Ancestral Spirit
Any Class with Engineering: [Goblin Jumper Cables] and [Goblin Jumper Cables XL]. These may fail though.

Classes Capable of Resurrecting After Death

Warlock: [Create Soulstone]. The warlock can indirectly resurrect a unit after death.
Shaman : [Reincarnation]. The shaman is the only class capable of solo wipe recovery, but this skill has a cooldown of 60 minutes, reducible to 40 by talents.
Any class with [Darkmoon Card: Twisting Nether].

-'''N.B.''' If you are in group, be careful before you ghost ([[Release Spirit|release your spirit]]). Priests and paladins can resurrect anyone whether they have ghosted or not; many other resurrection skills require that the character still be in his body. So you should not ghost unless it is imminent that you'll have to run back to your body.
