I discuss tips for reviving or finishing a "downed" player in GW2, using gameplay footage from 5v5 tournament matches with my Warrior.

When a player's HP bar reaches 0, they drop into a "downed" state, where they can be finished (killed) by an opposing player. Friendly players can revive or rally a downed player. Resolving the "downed" state is a critical element of GW2 PVP. Players who are finished face the typical experience across MMORPGs of having to wait to rez in a graveyard and are therefore out of the fight for a period of time. In addition, killing a player puts points on the scoreboard.

You can find more information about the downed state on the GW2 Wiki:
