Forced rez at medbay in PvP zones?


flipside

 

Posted

So I haven't PvP'd a lot or in a long time so this may be old news and I'm just not versed, but I wanted to ask. I was in RV last night, got killed and my character has Rise of the Phoenix on it. I clicked it expecting to rez right there and poof ... was in the RV hero med bay. The Rise of the Phoenix animation played, the power was shown as used but I arrived at the med bay instead of staying on the map.

Is this working as intended? Or did I stumble onto an odd bug?

it was added awhile ago, if you stay dead longer than 2-3 min or so it auto sends you to the hosp

its not too difficult to enhance a self rez to rech faster than that timer sends you to the hosp though

Thanks for this, but I'm still a bit stumped. In my current build, my character has Rise of the Phoenix recharging in 2 minutes 19 seconds. I then have 22.5% global recharge which, if my understanding is correct, should put the recharge of the power at 1 minute 47 seconds-ish. Even with this, I'm auto-sent to the med bay. I'm a little confused. I watched and it appears RotP does not recharge in enough time as the icon doesn't appear back before I'm auto-teleported.

The first time RotP is clicked, it works fine though. I rez right in place. It's the 2nd time that I use it is when I'm transported to the med bay.

Any thoughts?

Your power is not recharging before the 'corpse timer' runs out and you are automatically sent to the hospital. It's that simple.

Without more details about your build and slotting, we can't be sure WHY it's not recharging fast enough. What percent recharge does your enhancement window show and are you getting that 22.5% figure from the Combat Monitor?

Also, does PvP Diminishing Returns affect recharge bonuses? I don't have a clue about DR.

Hovering off the power in the Enhancement window I see it saying Recharge Time 2 min. 19 sec. The Combat Monitor then shows a Recharge Bonus of 22.5%. That's all the info I have available.

I know nothing about PvP and Diminishing Returns as well.

I think I figured out the problem. I just happened to test being defeated again and had the combat monitor open. The moment I was defeated I saw all of my IO set bonuses disappear. So, the large global recharge I have is not being used while I'm defeated. I did not know this was the case of bonuses; I wasn't aware they did not have any affect while defeated. Now I know.
