The deadzone

The deadzone is the marked ground where masters can attack each other. Outside it, you're safe from other masters (unless your clan is at war).

Rules

• PvP works only when both masters are inside the deadzone.
• Runaways wash up here. See Runaways.
• New masters are shielded for their first 30 minutes; you get 5 seconds of protection after respawning.
• Offline masters' slaves can't be attacked.
• Logging out mid-fight leaves your body in the world for 15 seconds.

Dying

You drop 60% of your gold (gold in the bank is safe), your equipped armour, and your resources, seeds and produce. Dying in the deadzone also costs you 20 cruelty. The killer has 10 seconds to loot first. You respawn after 10 seconds somewhere safe.
