How to Revive a Downed Teammate in PlayerRevive

Reach Them Before the Timer Runs Out

When a teammate's health hits zero, they don't die — they drop to the ground bleeding. A countdown starts (roughly a minute), and your job is to get to their body before it expires. Sprint or ride over, clear any mobs still attacking them, and stand close enough that you're clearly targeting their body.

Hold Use to Pull Them Up

Once you're next to the downed player, aim at them and hold your use/right-click button. A revive progress bar fills while you hold. Keep holding until it completes — letting go cancels the progress, so don't tap it. When the bar finishes, your teammate stands back up and can fight again.

Practical Rescue Tips

  • Call out your approach so they know help is coming and don't panic-log.
  • Kill nearby hostiles first; a creeper or zombie will interrupt your hold.
  • Bring a shield or block off a doorway if the area is hot.
  • If you can't make it in time, tell them to expect a normal death and item drop.
  • In tight caves, dig a quick one-block wall so nothing reaches you mid-revive.

The revive only works while the timer is active. After it expires, the player dies normally and their items scatter, so treat every down as a real emergency.
