Creatures killed after I log out count in my bestiary?

Question

If I use a firebomb on a few rats inside a tiny hole in a sewer, we all know that the rats there gonna die and that the new ones will die too as long as the fire fields stay there burning every new mob. This is the strategy used by players to fill bestiaries during Rapid Respawn. No mistery about that!

However, what happens with the kill if I drop a firebomb and log out instantly (i.e. by entering a Protection Zone)? Will I receive these kills while I am offline? I would like to know what happens with any weapon that inflicts damage over time (poison arrows, inflict bleeding spell and stuff like that).

I will test it later , since Im not sure

Answer 1

I tried to do this in one rapid respawn but it doesn’t count when you log out...

If you are far from the place or in dp/house or any pz zone you receive the exp and the count to bestiary but you need to be online at the time it dies

Edit: what happens if you log out and log in back at time to get the experience? Does it work aswell?

if you receive the exp it counts to bestiary too even if you log out and log in, but if the creature dies before you log in back you dont receive exp and doesnt count to bestiary...

oh, that's bad! I didn't know about that! Thanks for informing me!

Answer 2

When you log out, the bombs/fields you placed disappear

is that right? Even the fields that I threw with the open hand (PvP setting)?

Yes, even those.

Interesting... But poison status stays with the mob if I go offline, I guess? But then it would be a frag due to poison instead of being me, I guess... Any thoughts?

Answer 3

I know you need to be online so the kills counts, but you made me wonder, what happens if you log out and log in back at time to get the experience? Does it work as well?

Yes it works, if you receive the exp it counts to bestiary too even if you log out and log in, but if the creature dies before you log in back you dont receive exp and doesnt count to bestiary...

good to know it, Raven! If you can, please, edit your main answer and add this information. Seemed to be very interesting and a good "Post Scriptum" to your answer!
