Code: Solar * reduced resurrection effects duration from 5 minutes to 4 minutes. HP is set to 1/3 instead of 1/5 of max after being resurrected. ogre, troll, barbarian and dwarf players get a less debilitating version of the effect, due to their superior strength. initial STR debuff is reduced for the weaker races as well because of the reduced duration, so this change should allow overburdened characters to move sooner after a rez regardless of race. * reworked resurrection packet exchange
just another cool thing solar found in the client code, and the rez effects duration was easy to check in logs to verify (live 2001) [Fri Apr 13 22:22:18 2001] The spirit of wolf leaves you.

We’re all going to have to start dying more on raids in order to leverage the efficiency of this patch to rez effects! Imagine the time and strength we could save with twice as many deaths!
