History

This item was introduced in October 2012 to combat the mass duplication of Amulets of Resurrection that began in summer that year, resulting in an influx of cheap amulets into the ingame economy. Many players who could now afford the once-expensive amulets essentially had characters that lived indefinitely.

As of build 4.0.0, Amulet of Resurrection’s name has changed to Cursed Amulet of Resurrection. It is now soulbound and you can now buy it in Nexus for 1,000 fame. Also take note there is now a 5-10% chance that it will not work and you will have been “zombified”, otherwise known as death. It is rumored that per community amulet break, the chance went down by 0.01, and that after 10,000 ammy breaks all over, they’d become 100% zombification.

As of build 4.3.0, The Cursed Amulet’s chance to help you cheat death has evidently
decreased, rough estimates suggest a resurrection chance of below 40%.

As of build 5.0.0, Cursed Amulets have a 100% zombification chance and drops from the boss in the dungeon “Haunted Cemetery.”

Notes:
When your character turns into a zombie, it attacks other players. These zombies do only 55 damage (disregarding armor) at a low rate of fire, and have only approximately 2000 HP, but they can be a threat to weak/unmaxed players out there. Zombie priests can heal themselves and the zombies around them at a rate similar to Nut.

It seems that sometimes this item can drop in a White Bag, or a Cyan Bag.
