Default Need Corpse Hunting Tips

If one thing is going to make me never come back to this awesome game, it's not being able to find my corpse.

Hell, using other peoples abandoned corpses is currently the way I find my way around since each name is one of a kind.

What's your method for finding your corpse?

Cheers

Edit: Hopefully to kill 2 birds with 1 stone - I currently can't play because when I booted up this morning the game for some reason it now minimizes when I click the along the bottom or the left of the screen. I'm assuming I'll have to find a fix myself but if anyone knows what to do on this, go ahead and chime in. Tried compatability mode, fullscreening from menu once entering the game, changing the ini to fullscreen, all the obvious stuff.

Bards can also help you locate a corpse at a pretty low lvl

Awesome, good enough.

I've currently got my corpse but I've spent a lot of time aimlessly searching each time I die ^^ I'm guessing this is normal

I'll be setting my old 2nd monitor up soon for this, I was lost before I checked out a map, and then the game became really fun. so I'll definitely be following your advice here.

also, ya just necro or bard friends

/corpse
/loc
/doability 1 (or whatever sense heading is bound to) on a hotkey also

I don't know any other easy ways to find corpses. They get lost in walls and hills so the /corpse hotkey is the best thing ever

If I know I'm going to die, I stop moving and do a /loc
Recovering your corpse in Everfrost at night time is rough without it.

I suggest you make a /loc hotkey and put it in a hotbar and hit it when you’re in danger. I hit Shift 3 and then 3 to get my /loc, then Shift 1 to go back to my main hotbar. All left hand.

Always,always have a light source that's "on" 24/7 in a inventory slot. Makes spotting your corpse from a distance a x1000 easier.

And by on 24/7 some equipment that work as a light source dont give off light on a corpse vs say a light stone in a inventory slot
