My character has died multiple times in a hardcore realm and is still considered hardcore, allowed to join back into the hardcore realm. The realm is online (I invited 1 friend). Though each death has been solo with no one else in the realm. Each death was pretty normal, hits from different enemies. I don’t have a clue as to why it might not be taking the character out of hardcore mode. ---

No mods at all. Btw, I had several characters on this realm die and lose hc status before creating this immortal one. I also was experiencing a crash while playing with a friend triggered whenever one of us died and backed out (the other person still alive would have their game crash). I don’t recall if my friend was in game at the time that this immortal character first died but I wonder if that has something to do with it. ---

I just tested a new character on the same realm and they are also allowed to enter the hardcore realm after death, so looks like it’s not tied specifically to that other character… ---

We were playing on Monday and some of my team mates, when died ( if you log out fast enough) you still “alive on Hardcore”. then they log in into another realm in HC and stay there few minutes. I guess the save system response with the backend probably is not instant and there are some frames were the data is lost until the new “save” applies. So if you died but is not recorded as “death” you can log in and when the save comes, you still “alive”? dont know it that makes sense and my english is terrible.. so sorry
