Deadman Mode, the hardcore pvp version of Old School RuneScape, has been updated with a small but substantial change to curb griefing. Following criticism from the community over ‘suiciding,’ the act of high level players attacking and killing low level players before guards can react, Jagex has altered how death works in guarded areas. Beginning today, players who die in a guarded area with a skull will lose 10% of the experience in protected skills. Those without a skull will not, however they will still lose 25% experience in unprotected skills.
The update has received mixed reactions, with some stating that the punishment isn’t severe enough and others pointing to the ease with which players can drop items before they die to retrieve them upon respawning. DarkScape had gone around this issue by making all items appear automatically when dropped.
