    I'm probably the only one...

    I miss being able to die from falling... that moment you slip off a cliff and verbally let slip an expletive as you cringe at your stupid fate... I'm not talking about the forced falling in dungeons (which is getting silly)... too often it doesn't feel like the world is dangerous as it should be...

    It isnt dangerous, they tried changing this in Heavensward by making mobs have more HP then normal, but it still has not changed anything. I dont think fall damage will improve much, they need to release mobs that are hard to kill and will target the player. Afcourse some might dislike, hence why SE is probably playing it safe.

    Did they remove it? Cause I have definitely died from falling recently (in like the last month). It was a pretty huge fall tbh, whereas some big-but-not-huge falls only got me down to 1 hp.

    edit: I hope this doesn't come off as rude, I genuinely am asking if they removed it or if I didn't notice something

    You can die of fall damage if you are aggroed by an enemy.

    You can still die from fall damage, but they did remove it from certain dungeons (sohm al, hull breaker off the top of my head.) outside of dungeons basically if you are unengaged you will always land with at least 1 HP, but if an enemy is on your aggro list, you die.

    There was a spot in the Sea of Clouds where you could die from falling. It was has since been fixed though.

    Personally I like that I don't die because that would feel like double punishment for me.

    Why 'double'? I have an extreme (very extreme) fear of heights and just watching myself fall in a game gives me vertigo. Having to suffer that AND dying would just be awful.

    Obviously that wouldn't be for most people though.

    Also Sea of Clouds, I hate you >.>

    That clickbait title though -.-

    That aside, you can still very much die from fall damage under the correct circumstances, as others have already mentioned. As a tool to make the world feel more dangerous, it's a weak one. A more involved and treacherous overworld needs a lot more than accidental insta-kill or gravity debuff on mounts and at this point the devs seem to care very little about making anything feel truly dangerous. At best we get extremely minor inconveniences

    The biggest challenge in this game is dealing with other players.

    Adding dying from fall damage doesn't do anything though? Monsters still leash after a certain distance. If you die it just sets you back a couple minutes. All it would do is make you go around and waste more of your time for no reason. It's the same as the heavy you get when you get hit while mounted. All it does it slow you down for a bit, you're still going to get to where you were going, just slightly later with mostly no chance of death.
