the Downed But Determined skill increases the time a player can survive in a downed state, making it highly valuable for team-based gameplay to allow for revives. While not essential for solo players, it significantly improves squad survivability by extending the bleed-out timer by roughly 6 seconds per point, or up to 30-32+ seconds total. It is generally considered a strong, recommended skill in the Conditioning branch.
Synergy: Often paired with the "Crawl Before You Walk" skill, which increases speed while downed, or "Turtle Crawl" for extra damage resistance.
Important Tip: Staying stationary while downed extends the bleed-out time more than moving, making this skill even more effective if you don't crawl
