Description

Drowning damage is the damage that begins when a player reaches zero stamina while swimming on water tiles. Animals also take drowning damage, though, without stamina being a driving factor.

Notes

  • Drowning damage is only incurred while the player is moving; standing still in water does not cause drowning wounds or stamina loss.
  • Drowning wounds are listed as water damage and are untreatable, but they always disappear after a few minutes out of the water (approximately 10 minutes while logged in), regardless of wound severity. Note that drowning wounds do not heal while in the water, and bad/severe wounds will get worse over time if you are stuck in the water.
  • Last Gasp and/or the consumption of stamina-generating foods can provide some temporary stamina relief and assist in imminent drowning emergencies. Another player positioning a ship near the drowning player and setting its permissions to allow for embarking by that drowning player is yet another option in drowning emergencies.
