Buffs and Debuffs went away on zone in near death.
 

I was in Qeynos Hills while playing my level 7 barbarian warrior Konquest on the Green Server, when I was jumped by Varsoon. I managed to flee and outpace him a little, but he managed to land heat blood on me. Thankfully I had some druid buffs from before, including chloroplast, spirit of wolf, and storm strength, so I wasn't immediately dead. I was at around 1% health and nearly dead from the DoT when I zoned into Surefall, and lo and behold, all my buffs AND debuffs were gone, and I was at almost no health. I probably should have died. But I survived.

I don't know if it was some kind of "dying while zoning protection" or something, or if it's a bug. But I'm kinda glad it saved me the corpse run trip, even if it did cost me some nice buffs.

I'm only reporting it as I was concerned it might not be intended.

This is more of a feature and is a classic era mechanic. If you zone with less HP than your gear provides it will strip all beneficial and detrimental effects

Awesome! Good to know. Thank you for the info.

It actually got fixed at end of era velious if I am not mistaken, could of been beginning of era Luclin...

This is one of the original threads on it, the devs thought it was stupid and didnt want to implement it (not sure what changed their stance)

In the evidence posted though, shows people complaining in Luclin about it because of the higher +hp items and also says it was removed in 2003 (links no longer work so theres only the two quotes from it)

Would be nice if it only removed detrimental effects, guess they didn't have the technology back then

I don't remember the date of patch notes, but there is literally sony patch notes talkin about fixing it.

Found it, May 2003

Upcoming for May 14th, 2003
