Revive Cost Penaltizes Long Runs.

[Ketec]

10% off a 30-40k affinity aint much -  but a 1-2h survival/def and losing 10% off a ~500k is quite a lot. 4  revives = 200k lost.

It should be capped at some point or diminish with the length of a mission.

If you are using 4 revives for that Survival Mission, then maybe you should reconsider your skill and/or power relative to that mission.

Dude you shouldn't be using up 4 revives ...unless it's for carrier. .even then it shouldn't be a problem.

It is percentage based. The lost affinity is directly tied to how much you gained. This seems like the perfect way to charge for it. There is no need for a cap.

[Natsusane]

You should ask yourself why you die 4 times when you shouldnt die at all (this is true for lvl 20 - lvl x000).

 

Yes I'm saying you shouldn't die to lvl 9999 mobs cuz its easy to oneshot even those and you can infinitely CC them anyways.

Also outside solo, how does one fall, bleedout, and die 4 times (6 with arcanes). That's just a bad team even for a T4. And if solo, then yea, as already mentioned, id suggest reassessing your gear choice, cause its not working. The whole revives renewed after mission is meant incase you die, not a "use all my lives then gtfo" tactic of abuse.

here is an idea: 

Rage + bloodstrike + a decent melee weapon.  

you can do survival up to 40mins without droping half of your health points. 

Your welcome....

[Burnthesteak87]

And I like it working this way. A penality is a penality because logic.

[Synitare]

You should probably try to not die then. Death absolutely should have a penalty.

I've been killed ... a bit ... trying to do a Solo Spy sortie over and over. As far as I can tell you lose 10% of what you have gained up to that point.

 

In your example, you might only lose less then half that, if you are killed multiple times along the way.

 

Only way to lose 200K is if you are at the "x" hour mark, and you are getting killed because it's getting "hard", but you are hanging around because you know you have those 4 revives, in other words, you are doing meta-gaming with the revives, so the 10% penalty does sound about right.
