Death Penalty

Shilen’s Breath is a poisonous effect that Shilen inflicts on a character who passes through the realm of death, where her powers are strong. However, the adventurers of Aden are able to resist Shilen’s Breath to some degree.

When a character dies, there is a chance that the character will be affected by the Shilen's Breath debuff. There is a 100% chance of being affected by Shilen's Breath, if a character is killed by instanced bosses or grand bosses.

Shilen’s Breath has five levels

A character affected by Shilen's Breath at levels 3, 4, or 5 can reduce the debuff to level 2 by speaking to an Adventurer's Guide which can be found in towns or villages.

Characters still lose experience points when they die, but they will not lose levels. For example, if a character dies at level 70 and 1% XP, that character will lose the 1% XP but will stay at level 70.

A character who dies while on a battlefield still receives the Battleground Death Syndrome debuff.
