'''Combat Tag''' is a mechanic commonly included on civ servers which prevents a player from logging out during combat without consequences. When a player is hit by another player, they are marked (tagged) for some duration of time. Any player that logs out while tagged will leave a vulnerable body behind for a period of time that can be attacked and, in particular, [[Exile Pearl|pearled]].

Whenever a player takes damage from, or damages, another player, they are marked as combat tagged for a period of time. If a player logs out while tagged, their body will remain on the server for a period of time. They can still take damage, be killed, and be pearled while in this state, just as if they were logged in.
