The increasing rez timer is a complete waste of time and should be removed the game. Thanks.
Just stop dying tho. Skill issue?
You can also res immediately at the spirit healer for a 1m debuff.

Just trying to fun and being put in a 2 min time out is just lame.

What are you doing in modern WoW that would cause you to have a rez timer? If it’s PVP, it’s there for a reason.

Orc War. Probably have Mount and Heroic Leap keybinds next to each other and take unintentional leaps of faith off ledges…?

Is there a problem running back to your body?
The rez timer has already been nerfed to oblivion, I really can’t support any reason for this game to become more braindead than it already is.

Sometimes it’s not a skill issue. For example, during the Hearthstone event, I died on my warlock in Stormwind due to ungodly latency, and the game gave me a 6 minute wait before I could release. Like, I know it builds the release timer per death, but I hadn’t died at all before that on any character. It shouldn’t have penalized me that hard.
What they could do is change it to a 30 second release right at your body, or instant at the graveyard with no gear degradation or debuffs.
Also, let us fly while dead again. Dying on top of a mountain you can only access by flying and no graveyard nearby, means we’re forced to release at the Spirit Healer and take a hit.
That can quickly increase to 10 minutes and make a level 70 weaker than a level 60.
Do you mean where you die multiple times to the same encounter and run back? Where the game wont allow you to rez yourself until an expanding timer happens? Yeah that sucks. Especially when doing a world boss type event and you are squishy and dont have regular heals. (The disciple of Fyrakk for example could suck. Or some of the original 4 world bosses when you ran back)

There are times when blizz gets the balancing completely wrong. Then it becomes an issue. It is niche though. So for example that holiday dragon world boss in Duskwood during the event I forget the name of. The one that spawns the mushrooms with the green goop. Wipes out entire raids in seconds regardless of level or gear. It got to the point where everbody just remained on their flying mount high above until the last 5% HP, then they would tag for the credit.

Sounds like an elitist strat. But I’ll try it.
well gee. Such wisdom. Why didnt they or anybody else think of that?
This timer has been in since vanilla. Probably since the world dragon bosses. Specifically the Blue one since it was basically a zerg fight to finish it. But it serves absolutely no purpose since the end of Vanilla, but still exists. Whether it’s PVE or PVP, it serves no purpose and hasnt for 17 years.

Exactly. You already have to run back so what’s the point?
What they also need to do is remove the release timer from world bosses, and actually fix the issue that causes it to not count if you are making your way back to said boss when its defeated.

Oh this. This issue has been a problem for a while. I’m not sure if Blizz ever fixed it but there were a few world bosses where people would rage at the dead afk’ers because of this. But a lot of the dead afk’ers had good reason to remain dead. Namely depending on how much time they had left before the boss died before they could reach their corpse.
logic is elitist now?
ffuuu
They haven’t, you are still locked out of releasing, sometimes upwards of 5-6 minutes. Again they need to just fix the underlying issue instead of this poor excuse of a fix.
Azuregos lol.
Strat was to pull the boss as close to the graveyard as possible and then feed the boss bodies until it fell over.
