Rest = Instant Death for Totem Druid

Post by NPC Logger Number 2 »

Apparently I cannot even rest at 50% health on my totem druid or it instantly kills my character and sends them to the fugue. I have to always heal up to 100% health with potions or kits just to be able to rest without dying. Please fix.

From when i played my druid... i recall i always went out of polymorph before resting, and i never died if i did that. Do you rest while your polymorphed as a bear/bat/cookiemonster?

No I rested in my humanoid form. I'm not sure if you can even rest while polymorphed.

So, For this yes there are 2 things wrong.

First - Resting as a shifted form does not rest properly. It doesn't refresh your spellbook and it also de-shifts you.

Second - When it de-shifts you, it dewards you and drops your con. If you were low health, it CAN kill you due to your con dropping your health below 0. Normally when you polymorph you polymorph down to 1HP if you have a drastically lower Con but when you rest, this doesn't occur and you die.

So, Only rest in your humanoid form.

I was in my humanoid form when I rested. I think the issue is having low con and a high Bear's Endurance buff on. Still lame to rest and instant fugue though.

I rested in humanoid form, on my last totem, and he never died, but then I was also not using Bear's endurance, indeed.

Yup, thats the other way it can get you. IF you were already low health and you take a CON dip from the debuff, the game basically treats it as CON damage, and you die.
