Immortality is an ultimate Defence ability that requires a shield to use. When activated, melee, magic, ranged, and soft typeless damage the user receives is reduced by 25% for 30 seconds. If the user dies while the ability is in effect, they are returned to life, immediately cancelling Immortality. Immortality has a 30 second timer on the Buffs and debuffs bar.<\/p>\n
When active, the ability essentially acts as a diminished variant of Reflect; it provides half the damage reduction of reflect and does not reflect said damage onto the aggressor(s). Unlike most other defensive abilities requiring a shield, Immortality's effect is consistent throughout all tiers of shields and defenders.<\/p>\n
When the player is killed while under the effects of Immortality, a message will appear in the game box stating In a heroic stand you get a second wind! as the player is knocked down, but a blue hand lifts them back up. This will also recover 40% of the player's maximum health and provide a two second damage immunity from incoming attacks. Like signs and portents of life\/death however, the player is temporarily bound due to the animation playing out. In PvP situations, this will also remove any Teleport Block effect that the player might have had.<\/p>\n
Some bosses' mechanics ignore Immortality's effects:<\/p>\n
