Compassion Mechanics

Burying Corpses

Shovels are used to bury monster corpses. Once buried, the respawn time for a creature will become much faster. It is considered courteous to bury monsters in outside areas and crowded lower-level dungeons.

Burying Player Tombstones

Tombstones of killed characters can be buried after the tombstone has been mourned by other characters. Bonus Compassion XP will be rewarded to those who bury tombstones, but the bonus experience can only be earned once per hour.

“

The number of people that need to mourn the tombstone (before it can be buried) depends on several factors, including some randomness. Spammy deaths (such as "Suicide by Poison") can be buried after only a few mourners, whereas unusual deaths require more mourning.

Hardcore deaths (by non-suicidal means) require more mourners than non-hardcore deaths. But in any case, hardcore players should remember that their tombstone is just a convenience: you can still repair your items even if the tombstone is gone. Just stand in the general area where your tombstone was and double-click your broken items to repair them.
