PSA: Recluses, Please Use Your Fists to Revive

I saw a post mentioning picking up any random weapon to revive. If you as a Recluse are not wanting to pick up a weapon to revive (and I guess I can understand not wanting to pick up some trash weapon taking up your inventory space), then just use your fists.

It's actually probably faster using fists to revive than any other weapon (other than fists, HAHA). Maybe daggers might have a slight advantage over fists. Now I'm not gonna call out glintstone pebble revive Recluses because I wouldn't have known this if I hadn't seen a Recluse doing it first. Obviously the only time that's advantageous is if you need to raise from afar.

Edit: Yeah, if you have things like Cannon of Haima (best reviving spell, I think it's 1.5 bars) and Stars of Ruin (ticks off one full bar per cast) then obviously use those. Of course consider how long these spells take to cast when reviving also and how safe you are when casting them or you'll just get downed too. This is more a PSA for the early stages of the game.

People Intentionally Leaving After Team Wipe on Nightlord

Anyone else see this? I've seen it maybe 4 times in 600 hours of gameplay. I know they know they'll get penalized hard for leaving, but they do it anyways once the DEFEAT screen shows up.

I like to think they do it to mitigate the point loss for the other two. Personally seeing as how I like staying in Depth 3 and make very little progress in Depth 4 (got to 5200 points once, then had a string of bad randoms), I'm thinking I'll just take the hit if the team was actually working like a team and always helping each other. Wiping to the Nightlord in D4 usually costs 600 points but I've seen it go as low as 100 when someone does this and leaves at the DEFEAT screen.

I respect crappy players that bungle every boss or the Nightlord as long as no matter what happens during the run, including dying 4 times to a Redmane Knight camp (yes, this really happened, they were doing it at level 2 and I knew it would be a distater) but they kept going all the way to the Nightlord and we won. Most people would have just been a bunch of babies and quit at that point.

Then on the flipside there are decent or good players that leave if you don't respect their ping because it's not a good idea. Leavers are the worst.

If anyone is reading this and left after the team wiped to the Nightlord, thank you.
