If you don't want to fix it, can we at least be able to commit suicide. Like a poisoned apple that's instant death. Would serve literally no purpose in 99% of content besides getting around this whole permanent combat thing.
That apple kinda exists. You can craft ravage and Gradual Ravage health potions that will kill you (if you don't have super high health/health recovery). If you combine it with a skill like Balance and use it when your health is low it will instatnly kill you, otherwise you need to wait for the dot to kill you.
I know it's not instant death, but unfortuantly it's the best we can have
