The Daily Grind: Omg rez pls k thx
We at Massively imagine that there are two types of people in this world: those that will rez, and those that won't. And we don't just mean classes, although of course you have to have the ability to resurrect a fallen player in any MMO you play.
No, there are those good Samaritans who will stop and resurrect any players they can, whether they ask or not, and then there are those who, for whatever reason (they were treated poorly as children?), will not stop to resurrect anyone not in their group. "You can run," they might say, "I had to."
Back in the day, there were penalties for not getting rezzed-- you could even lose experience or gold for regaining life without actually being resurrected by another player. But these days, it's mostly just time. Still, time is money-- do you stop and cast resurrect every chance you get, whether asked or not, or do you save that mana and casting time for better, more selfish things?
