Message: <blockquote data-quote="Staffan" data-source="post: 9383291" data-attributes="member: 907">My headcanon is extrapolated from their 3e ability to essentially automatically stabilize when at negative hp (if they had brought the ability over to 5e, which they didn't, it would be something like "When at 0 hit points, a Warforged does not need to make death saving throws, but they still accumulate failed death saves if they take damage and they are still subject to death from massive damage").So basically, a badly damaged warforged shuts down, but does not further deteriorate. This could be extrapolated to shutting down for other purposes. So if they're kept somewhere safe, they could probably be on standby for a very long time. If active, they'd be subject to more wear and tear, and also likely to get into accidents or otherwise get destroyed.</blockquote>
