#bug #5 years in dev #Swimming and drowning

[pateuvasiliu]

I just instantly drowned with about 50 seconds left to go on my breath bar.

Best server.

For most (all?) other players, it seems to work just fine.
Providing the devs with more (useful) information to reproduce the bug would be helpful .

I went out of the water to breathe, then went back in. As soon as I killed a random makrura, my character started taking 400 dmg/sec and died. No way in hell it took me 1 minute to kill a regular NPC, I still had time on my breath bar.

Okay, so the Killing Blow could be what triggered the bug? Are you sure you didn't have a fatigue bar too? Did the combatlog actually said you were drawning? Are you able to reproduce the bug at will? What are your race / class / talents / level, who was the mob?

I guess this is the kind of information the dev team needs .

Are you sure you went out and replenished your breath bar to 100%? It's not instant incase you didn't know

If you just swim to the surface without jumping out of the water, the breath bar wont replenish.
So getting up, then down again will kill you.
