Added info about urn spawning in yellow lane first. Removed stuff about urn standing around if enemies are nearby as the urn just does not move now when dropped.

The soul urn spawns next to the bridge in either Yellow or Green Lane.
The soul urn spawns next to the bridge, alternating between Yellow and Green Lane. The first urn will always spawn in Yellow.


The urn respawns and alternates lanes every {{#var:Respawn_time}} minutes. However, if the urn is picked up ''before'' the next spawn time and delivered ''after'' (i.e. picked up before {{#var:Second_spawn_time}} minutes and delivered after), it does not spawn again until the next scheduled spawn time. It descends from the sky for 12 seconds before it can be picked up. A player can grab the landed urn by hitting it with a [[Melee Attack]] (light or heavy).

[[Melee Attack|Melee attacks]] (light or heavy) and [[Melee Damage]] abilities from enemy Players (or [[NPCs]]), and any [[Status_Effects|stun]] source will force the courier to drop the urn. If the urn is left on the ground, it will wait indefinitely if there are enemies of the last courier's team in a 40m radius, or for 13s if there are only ally players in that radius. Once either this timer runs out or all players leave the 40m radius, it cannot be picked up anymore and will run back to its spawn point.

'''Note:''' The Soul Urn's soul value is determined at the moment it spawns. Holding onto the urn for longer durations does not increase its value.

If the urn hasn't been delivered in 45s, it will start decaying in value for another 45s, until its value reaches zero and it expires. This is indicated by the "delivering the urn" text turning red and counting down.
