Insurance & Item DecayAs a new player, you have three "free deaths" before you are required to insure your items. After that, you will take decay on your clothing, armor other non-weapon items each time that you die. Decay only occurs when a player chooses to clone themselves after dieing. If a player is revived prior to releasing to a cloning center, then they will not suffer item decay. PvE (player versus environment - this is what you're doing when you're hunting) deaths ALWAYS give you decay. If you aren't insured, your items will decay by 5% of their maximum condition. Insured items only decay by 1% when you die. PvP Deaths (deaths from other players or by factional npcs and pets) will not cause any decay at all if items are insured.
Some items, such as "loot", unequippable items (junk and ornaments), or resource containers (your hide, meat and bone) don't take decay.
