Respawn in Deadly Shroud

[Yoda]

I died to deadly shroud and respawn at flame shrine in deadly shroud. So instant death not possible to go to menu or anything else just respawn and die

[Judaspriester]

That's a very interesting corner case. Because as far as I get it, you always respawn at the latest respawn point you've reached. That would mean that you managed to reach the respawn point within the deadly shroud and then died, as well as the shroud duration regeneration from respawn points isn't strong enough to negate the deadly shroud malus.

Pew... No idea right now how to break this circle if you have just a few sec and also are unable to port away because of the shroud....

you should send the location to the devs so they can fix it. Did you fly into the deadly shroud and land near a respawn?

[Tevirik]

I just fall to the same trap. It's at the carpenter site : just inside a shroud area, there is a round flame respawn point. It activated at the same time I had the death shroud warning and had not enough time to leave the shroud. So I respawn in the death shroud and die instantly and so on.
The only thing to do was killing game with F4.
I don't want to lose this caractere ! I hope to find a way to respawn at the previous point

[Darhaksterion]

Quitting the game should send you back home or to the last altar you visited, though. Why is that not happening?

Sounds like gliding into deadly shroud.
Only fixes i can imagine, you can't activate shrines in deadly shroud, you get forcerespawned at the start if you die too often or can choose to respawn at the start.

Only fix i can see if closing the game isn't helping is asking a friend to boost your shroud.

[Tevirik]

Okay, I respawned at my 2d home flame.
Character is safe.
Thank you for your answers.

same thing just happened to me, ran into shroud at carpenter site to get the NPC, insta died to shroud, stuck re spawning on shroud respawn and insta die

[Faybelle]

Hahaha, you know what also can happen? You can die from brushing the top of a tree while gliding over it. Was doing this on the slope of a hill, so i couldnt place down a Flame Shrine because it was too slopey, so i couldnt put down any scaffolding to retrieve the grave. Ended up mining the surface for a good amount of time till it was accidentally even enough for a flame shrine, so that i could place scaffolding to pick it up. It was very interesting that the grave appeared literally on the tip of the tree !

Wemod will let you turn off the shroud's unfortunate effects. It's free and so far has not shown any signs of malware/ spam etc. Turning off the Shroud timer made the Shroud almost fun again. Still not a fan of the poor visibility, but you can get your corpse, no problem and go skating on lava just to say you did it.

Now I don't go into the Shroud without Wemod. "Your game, your rules"

You need to upgrade yourself at the Flame Alter to proceed. Each upgrade opens you to new areas of the shroud. If the shroud is red it will insta kill you in a few seconds.

Now don't get this confused with the red color from other aspects of the game as the molten areas give off a lot of red light so do torches and other lights in the game. Also the shroud itself will appear red this is to block you till you have upgraded yourself through the Flame Alter the second tab down. It's a progression block.

This also will give you extra points towards your character or toon.

[Sgt.JESUS]

Open your game to someone, if that guy make a run for the flame upgrade then you can be saved, depending on the level at least, if it needs the wyvern its gonna take awhile.
They should really look in to this, i didnt think it was possible, gotta be unlucky as hell to fall inside the red fog and in the range of a saving flame.
Devs should deactivate the saving flames inside the red fog, until they turn blue.

[Dirty Bird]

Your tomb stone should appear on the edge just out of the fog to. and you have to rub right next to the Flame Alter Marker to get it to work. " That is Not a Flame Alter " it is a Marker and Re-Spawn point in case you get killed in the Well, as you can not place a Flame Alter in the Shroud this is how they fixed that.

This should have a area affect of which it doesn't once activated you should be able to teleport out of there but you can't. Not till you destroy the Shroud Root.

You may get some one else to join but they will also have to progress through your world as well. Progression through the game is different then level or progression through your own worlds. You will keep all you have achieved only not in a coop world till you have done it as a team, and even then some things you still have to do.

Perk Tree and level and tools and what ever you carry with you into their world is one thing. Progression in their world is something else altogether.

Just some things that they need to refine. If the shroud is red to you don't go in. You will need to upgrade your toon at the Flame Alter to proceed this is a progression lock till you do so. Second Tab down will show you what you need . and will be the place to proceed. Once you activate your Flame Alter.

The red shroud will kill you nearly instantly. It can be cheesed to a degree in some instances but not at any of the Elixir Wells.

Taking time to read the patch notes and what the Dev's have said really clear up a lot of this on Progression.

I have at the moment around 460 hours into this game and have went into the red shroud myself till I learned what I had to do.

Tip : One of the things I always carry with me is one Flame Alter, Work Bench, Bed and a Fireplace to cook and to pass the night away. And this is also a Re-Spawn point. should I get killed I re-spawn there.

As for what has happened to you try doing a complete restart, by shutting the game down to the desktop. then restart the game and see if you don't re-spawn at the last Flame Alter you put down. also if a bug Verify your files. Always report all bugs. There is a in-game way to to this as well as in the games menus.

i killed a shroud root with fireballs from outside of its deadly shroud. there i mined tin ore and placed an altar outside the cave but still inside the (now vanished) deadly shroud. next day i teleported to that altar and died. i of course respawn at that altar and die before the spawn (reload) is finished to let me move. even a dodge back would probably suffice, but no no avail.
no i think i need to try a mod...
it would be nice if the devs will implement an option to respawn to a selected altar rather than the last one for such cases

[Angor]

wow, i got lucky. after killing the game and restarting i just barely could dodge back out of the deadly shroud :-)

[Dirty Bird]

Report bugs you find please. Be sure to verify your files. And I don't recommend Mods myself in this game as of yet. This is a Custom Engine they built. And they will have to develop tools to mod it with. This can take time to. This game is In EA so expect bugs and things to not be perfect. The Dev's want Feed Back.

You aren't suppose to be able to put a Flame Altar inside any Shroud Area. And even though you can expand the build area to cover a shroud area it doesn't remove it. Though have noticed NPC's of the shroud tend not to spawn in that area.

I have never been able to place a Flame Alter in a Shroud Root POI area myself.

Though there are places where you can mine tin that isn't in the shroud. Like at the Rift. As for deadly shroud. Rank yourself up with the Flame Alter. This is why there is deadly shroud. This is a progression stop till you do.

And restarting your game refreshes all assets. Except those within your Flame Altars build area. And POI's are also suppose to refresh as well. If you place it in a area that it's not suppose to be able to place it, it might bork your save.

Though I would like to see Shroud roots and Wells you have cleared stay cleared once you do them. Not just a mark on the map. Though you get no points redoing those Shroud Roots. That should be locked to the players progression only.

The reason for the refresh when restarting the game, is so you can farm those chests and mining deposits and many other things in the game that you might need.
