feign death what a stupid ability

[Thal]

feign death is broken, when it ends i try to stand it re starts, apply bandage it restarts . how does this ability actually work, i just cant figure out what its supposed to do, followed the instructions but never works . i just crawl around .

I think it's meant to buy you time so a tribe member or co-op player can revive you, doesn't seem like there is any way to self-revive, even after using a bandage... which really is unfortunate as being able to bandage yourself in that state strongly implies you should be able to recover solo.

If you have good bandages, when you are lying there, give yourself like three heals and don't move, your health will gradually go back up to full, then you will stand up and need to heal again.

If you use a bandage and then wait you will go back into a coma and continue to heal from the bandage, takes 3 or 4 but you can one hundred percent revive yourself this way.

Stay still, do nothing, don't crawl and the enemies leave you alone (AI enemies). When the enemies have left you alone use a bandage, then wait, your health bar goes up. If the healing stops, use another bandage.
When the health bar is full your character stands up in low health, use another bandage to fully heal.

You'll actually be able to get back up? I thought I tried fully healing myself with bandages and once I filled my healthbar it just started ticking back down and I never left downed state

[Goldie]

It does go down like that a bit because you moved to put the bandage on. Just stay there and heal a bit until it stops going up then bandage again until you get out of the coma state.

Oh man, that would have saved me some trouble if I had realized - the way it reacted after full health made me think it wasn't possible to self-revive, only delay death! Good to know!

I like how this doesn't work with jaguars at all. Just lost my best tribesman from a random glitchy jaguar.

if u go down and the enemie runs away from you apply a Bandage.... if ur HP during feign death reach 100% you will be able to get up again with 25% of your real Hitpoints.... if u stay up during Feign Death before healing the (FD Hitpointsbar)u just drop down again repeating the entire thing until u die of bloodloss

mostly animals will ignore you once u go down .. and some Human enemies will discontinue fighting u if u crawl a certain distance from the original point of battle

If you're downed and alone, using a premium or better wrap can heal you back up. The basic wrap doesn't do enough healing to counteract the health penalty to using actions while downed.

some enemies just want to eat you, so continuing to attack until after you're downed makes sense

its fine, you apply bandages and you'll get up after a while

if you have tribesman they can revive you

better than just insta-respawning miles away...

[vexille.g]

I always just heal up and when at full HP, I hit F11 and get back up.

Well it's only happened once from a conda throwing me into the mile-high club. My response was to do the 'ole healing foods and/or insta-healing chemicals first and then bandage.
