Death Wraith
What Is It?
Wherever you died, something will be waiting for you when you go back.
When you return to the matching sub-scene and the official lost-property cache spawns, an echo appears nearby: wearing your gear, wearing your face, breathing with your voice. Its name is written above it: Strong / Balanced / Weak + your name + 's Wraith.
How hard it hits depends on how expensive you were when you died.
What It Inherits From You
- Your face — the exact head and character look you died with.
- Your gear — most of what you were wearing and carrying is now on it.
- Your voice — right down to your voice lines and footstep material.
- Your style — died holding a gun and it fights as a gunner; died in melee and it closes the distance and chases you down.
It won't lunge the second you load in. Like any vanilla enemy it has to notice you first, which gives you a moment to look at what's standing there before it looks back.
You Set Its Strength Yourself
The measure is one ratio: the value you were carrying ÷ (cash + the value you were carrying).
Which means: walk out with your whole estate on your back, die once, and you have personally built yourself a monster.
- Strong — Trigger: carried share ≥ 50%; Health: 10x; Damage: 1.5x; Move speed: 1.9x; Moveability: 1.0
- Balanced — Trigger: carried share 10%–50%; Health: 6x; Damage: 1.25x; Move speed: 1.5x; Moveability: 0.9
- Weak — Trigger: carried share < 10%; Health: 3x; Damage: none; Move speed: 1.2x; Moveability: 0.8
10x health with 1.5x damage is not a figure of speech. Wipe while kitted out, and going back to clean up after yourself is often harder than the Boss that killed you in the first place.
The Fine Print
- Records follow lost property. One death record is kept per raid; repeated records for the same raid replace that entry. Different raids can coexist. The cap follows the current official difficulty's lost-property limit; overflow removes the oldest record and its wraith.
- Beating it settles that record. Killing a wraith removes its record, leaving other raids' records intact. Opening its matching official lost-property cache also removes the saved record, preventing later respawns from that entry.
- It drops nothing. A wraith has no loot crate, and killing it returns not one piece of gear. Recover your belongings from the official lost-property cache; the wraith gives no extra gear.
- Normal game scenes only; menus and loading screens never trigger it.
- It carries its own name and health bar, so you can spot your own wraith at a glance.
Do I Need to Turn It On?
On by default. enableDeathWraithSystem in ModConfig switches it off. After that nothing is recorded and nothing spawns, and the existing wraith record in your save is cleared out.
