Slight modification, resurrections can now recover 60% of the loss cap
(400k minimum loss.) If you do _not_ receive a res from a cleric and
choose instead to pray, you can be spared up to 50% based on YOUR
standing. These obviously do not stack, you get one or the other. This
makes praying less impactul if there's no clerics around and assuming
you've put in the work to grind standing. It also still gives incentive to
seek a res for less exp loss.
