Battle rez bugs

[Smokeskin]

We're having a ton Of bugs with our battle rezzes. It seems like 80% of the, the rez button is either just greyed out, or the rez goes through but the guy still spawns outside.

This isn't a range issue, I'm close to the bodies and rez will still be unsuable, and of course not the battle rez debuff either. It seems to be bonafide bugs, maybe some LoS issue with the body.

Anyone know any fixes or remedies for this? It is highly annoying.

We haven't found a way around it yet. The only saving grace is that generally not ALL of our rezzers are effected, so while 4 of us generally can't grab a target, we probably have 1 or 2 who can.

We've encountered similar bugs. We've found that one of the causes of players spawning outside after a rez is due to them clicking the "accept" button as the timer counts down. When the timer expires, the button briefly disappears before reappearing as an actual "accept" button, and during that time, the "release" button moves up and takes its place. Have your raiders wait until the "accept revive" button is clearly shown (with a 10 minute countdown timer) before clicking accept.

As for the unusable rez bug, I've seen multiple versions of it. One that isn't a bug is that Battlerezes cannot be used within 5 minutes of each other, regardless of whether you have the debuff for it or not. The debuff disappears if you die, so if you battlerez, wipe, return, and try to battlerez again inside 5 minutes (which can happen), it'll block the new rez. I've also seen issues with it permanently bugging out if someone with the debuff survives through the wipe (for example, via Cloaking Screen). Lastly, it appears that sometimes it just flat bugs, no idea why, but a group wipe seems to fix it (or maybe it's just waiting some period of time).

One other thing to note is to never battlerez someone who is in the slime pit on Bonethrasher. They will retain the stacking damage debuff even if rezed on the main platform and quickly die.

Note that care must be taken with this technique. Any of a boss's AoE or group-wide effects will place you back in combat, as will being targeted by any of a boss's random-target effects, or taking damage from any effect present in the encounter. In addition, many bosses have an AoE combat "pulse" that will place you back into combat periodically, though this pulse seems to only function every 30 seconds to a minute, so it's more a random chance of failure than something to actually watch for and avoid (if that were possible).
