Dying carries a penalty, so it pays to be careful — and to bank your gold.

Standard death (no protective ring):
You lose 25% of your current EXP and 25% of the gold you are carrying. The lost gold drops on the ground where you fell.

Banked gold is always safe. Only the gold you are carrying is at risk, so deposit your gold at a bank before dangerous fights.

Protective rings can save one or the other:
• A Gold Ring - 50 Uses protects your gold — you keep all your gold and only lose the 25% EXP.
• A Ring of Prowess - 50 Uses protects your EXP — you keep all your EXP, but you drop all the gold you are carrying. This ring has a double effect as well, it grants a 10% EXP Boost to all kills

Protective rings consume a charge each time they save you.
