Partial Loot MMOs

Death still costs something here — just not everything. Partial loot MMOs punish dying with a real, tangible loss: durability damage, a chance to drop a random item or two, or losing whatever's in a specific "risk" slot, without wiping out an entire inventory the way full loot does. It's a middle ground that keeps death meaningful and PvP genuinely risky, without scaring off players who'd rather not lose hours of progress to one bad fight. This tag covers MMOs with partial loot on death, from systems that drop a handful of items on defeat to titles using durability loss and repair costs as their version of the penalty.
