Death and Toggles
Well, the first problem is that, even if your toggles remained active, awakens and their upgrades don't provide any endurance, so your toggles would still drop just as soon as you stood up.
I think the rez-powers need to be re-evaluated. Commonly I'll find that the enemy can kill me before I even have the opportunity to use inspirations. If the powers were more like "Return to Battle" they would be more useful.
How about something like we have in PvP, you're phased for a small window of time. I guess the term 'intangible' would apply more in this case. Just something to compliment or a possible solution to this, as it is already an element of the game.

Every rez power should get a check up to make sure they're operating properly.

you could link all of your toggles to a single button. makes it much simpler to get them back up. I just spam my toggle button when I revive. I ordered the toggles so that my mez protection comes up first and then [on some of my toons where I remembered to] in the order of smallest activation time to largest to get my game on asap
there're more efficient ways to write this bind. But at the time I wrote it, there as not (because of a bug iirc)
this one is from a corr w/o mez prot, but the template is the same

I don't know about you, but I always find it an utter pain in the rump to re-toggle my armours after rezzing. I pop a wakie or hit Soul Transfer/Resurgence/RotP and spend the next minute activating half a dozen toggles. This is particularly painful when in a pitched battle as you're most vulnerable after rezzing (especially with wakies). I know Soul Transfer grants 30 seconds of untouchability, which to be fair is bloody handy, but often times it's not quite enough to get all toggles up in time (some o' those mofos have long activation times). Other self rezzes, don't have that luxury.
Here's what I propose. On death all toggles remain up, but supressed. When rezzed either by wakies, self-rez or teammate rez your toggles unsupress and you're back in action quicker.
However should you be ported away from your deathsite, i.e. Hosping or Recall Friend, then toggles drop and you have to re-toggle.
Just a humble suggestion from a humble chap. Feel free to critique/savagely maul.
