Can you explain how this happens? Poor binding decisions or are you just talking about a bad death streak?

that sounds painful. I almost deleted my character after 4 deaths in a row. Losing over a level... yikes

A fellow guildie in Covenant of Blood on live back in 99 got stuck in a death loop. He was a wizard and he bound himself at the Evil eye camp in lower guk.. He was camping the manastone and fell asleep. I think he lost about 8 levels or so. The GM's thankfully restored his character.

So, the death loops are usually associated with being bound in a place where something agros you and kills you where you then respawn and are killed again, and again..

Way back on one of my first raids I bound deep in Solb to go fight the dragon. After the raid broke I forgot to rebind, an hour or so later in an exp group (lucky in the same zone) I got killed and respawned at a fire giant's feet. Six or so deaths before I was able to run away the giant, die, respawn, memories and have mana for invisi before it got back....

I do remember a few afk deleveling deathloops happening to people on sullon zek.....

I prevent death loops by always binding in another zone than the one i plan to be fighting anything in. Saves a lot of grief to just avoid the possibility.

I forgot about how rough it is to start with no gear at all.
