Ghosts make character deaths confusing

On some cases there are exceptions... So I was playing the mission where you find the lost Guardian in front of the Temple of Crota, but it made me think... Why didn't his Ghost just bring him back?? It is never mentioned whether or not the Guardian lost his Ghost. Also... Grimoire says that many Guardian lives were lost in battles (Six Fronts, Twilight Gap, etc) How did they die when a Ghost could bring them back? I already know what you're saying... [spoiler]psssh.. It's just Bungie [/spoiler] [spoiler]So does that mean they're nerfing fusion rifles again?[/spoiler] [spoiler]Dinklebot was such a savage[/spoiler] [spoiler]But you're Nolandroid nobody cares about you![/spoiler] While the Ghost resurrection helps make respawn more 'realistic' and how Raid teams don't slowly dissipate after wiping.. To have a sufficient plot deaths need to happen. I wish there was a little more explanation.

  • You tried to revive that Guardian on the Moon. You find his dead ghost about 200ft from his body. Ghost revives work as such. A ghost can grab hold of the Light within you and remake your body with which to store it in. Think of your Light as being like your soul. Sunsingers using Radiance have learned how to pull their own Light out of the aether and thus are able to revive themselves. This is pretty impressive as doing such is like trying to open a door while standing on top of the door (assuming it's a floor door). When Guardians die for good it's because the Light within them was extinguished. With no Light there is nothing for a ghost to bring back. This actually happened to Eris. Due to her extended exposure to the Hive the Light has been drained from her and she no longer has any powers as a Guardian. If she were to die you could not resurrect her. [spoiler]So yes, Eris has no soul.[/spoiler]
