Wavicle Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I always assumed this was possible, but I had never seen it until today. I died at the same moment I levelled, and thereby rezzed myself. It was hilarious and awesome! 5 3 9 Wavicle's Guide To What Really Matters: What Needs To Be Done On Every Toon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyonico Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I've done it once or twice, usually because I'm on a ranged character and travel time for attacks lets me die or I hit them with a DOT right before dying. It is rare though, nice screen grab. 1 What this team needs is more Defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momentarygrace Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I've had this happen when on a team, died very close to leveling, while team mates kept fighting, I leveled not at the same moment, but after dying and laying down. When the level popped, I miraculously arose. 😄 Congrats! ^_^v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clave Dark 5 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The real trick is to rez yourself with your own Howling Twilight cast just before death... and then level!

Glacier Peak Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I would rank this as equally likely as turning in to a Rikti Monkey after using Secondary Mutation. Good work! Pocket D Zone Tour Best Post Ever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Talon Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 This happened to me once as well, back in the pre-shutdown days. I do have all thanks that the Devs presumably anticipated this moment, and rigged it so that there would be a rez superseding death/defeat; yeah, as best I recall I did have the consequential debt to deal with, but this is a relatively small price to pay in the face of hitting the hosp and/or leaving teammates one fist short in a major big-league scrap. Nice to see that this has happened to someone else over the course of the years. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only happened to my Grav/Dark twice when I was leveling and afterwards, and I did play that toon a bit after 50 (that's usually where I start to roll new ones), so yeah it doesn't happen all the time. On the other hand if you think about it as you're obviously getting overwhelmed, it's worth a shot. 1 ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Doomguide2005 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Don't recall ever rezzing by leveling, but I did exit a mission redside on my level 49 Stalker on a double xp weekend to be greeted by my level 50 ding as I zoned into Grandville.

Neither the HCWiki nor CoD describes the likelihood of this, but I've similarly experienced a twice occurring Rikti Monkey devolution. It is rare to be sure. Pocket D Zone Tour Best Post Ever....

DoctorDitko Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I figure it's a quantum thing, like USB-A ports. You try to plug it in, fail, then turn it around, fail, because the USB device is in superposition until you actually observe it. So then you look at the plug, it's waveform collapses, and now you can plug it in. My practice is to announce, "Fear my Monkey-form!" before hitting secondary mutation. The only times I've turned into a monkey have been when I forgot.* * Also keeps tigers away 1 Disclaimer: Not a medical doctor. Do not take medical advice from Doctor Ditko. Also, not a physicist.
