Wasted

Wasted
If the player health falls down to 0, the character is wasted.

Respawn
After a 60 seconds wait, during which the player can be revived by a medic, he is respawned in a safe place, selected automatically based on player's faction and death location.

Equipment
All equipment is lost when a character is wasted and respawned.

Character progression
The player looses one level and has 50% chances to forget each Ability Card he obtained.

Permadeath
After being wasted 3 times, the player character dies for good and cannot be respawned. All progress is lost, including faction standing, mission progress and hidden stockpiles. You will need to start again by choosing another character. Some of the story encounters also pose the risk of permadeath, irrespective of the number of lives left. This feature should discourage players to start certain key missions without taking every step to make sure their team is ready for the job.
