One Death Maps is a monumental failure.

I think the easiest solution is this:

Firstly:
If you're playing solo, all 6 portals can be used for either exiting to stash loot and return OR if you die. However, if you die in a map, it adds a -50% loot rarity debuff to that map until you complete it. That's it.
This will stop players from dying intentionally to farm the content over and over, as it won't be worth it with an XP loss penalty AND a -50% loot rarity debuff penalty that stacks based on however many deaths you had until all portals are closed.
This way, mobs can even reset, and especially this gives a reason for loot to stay on the ground.

Died with a Divine Orb sitting on the ground? That's okay. Just run it again, get some of your XP back (if you can without dying again) and pick it up. Finish the map off, and onto the next one. You still took a loss, but it wasn't as punishing.
No more empty map walk of shame. Players still have to think about what they're doing to really succeed.

Secondly:
WE NEED TO REVIVE OUR FRIENDS IN MULTIPLAYER MAPPING. This is just ATROCIOUS.
My friends can currently accidentally troll me by dragging a pack of mobs into me in a map, getting me killed, and then continuing on in my map while I lose my waystone, my loot, my XP and have nothing I can do to help myself.
JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE. The more you think about it, the more aggravating it is.
The devs want us to use more defensive builds; sure, I'll build a defensive, life-oriented tank to help my friends - but why? If they die, right now I can't revive them. What's the point? It's the single greatest blunder of a design decision I can see in the entire game bar none.

These suggestions seem like a very fair compromise.

A majority of players in this game play solo and are not really into party playing at all.

Not everyone is throwing bodies at stuff. Over half my deaths come from not being able to see what's on the ground as a result of party members spell visuals. Try playing as a Warrior in a group with a Necro and Rogue.

You're just ignorant. The overwhelming majority of players think the game is untuned, unbalanced, completely at odds with the fundamental characteristics of the concept of One Death Maps.
If you like it, cool, I don't care. You're in the vast, vast minority.
In a game where that's a design choice, there cannot be any bullshit that OHKO's you regularly from white mobs. That's unacceptable. There is no other way to rephrase this;
It. Is. Not. Acceptable.

I have MORE than enough resists so that if I get hit with a penalty I still have capped resists, and I'm wearing a freeze charm. Guess what?
I get hit by 2 Cold-attacks in rapid succession, in a game where the enemies are all on crack and fundamentally at odds with my characters mobility and response times as well, and I get frozen, and stunlocked to death by a bunch of bullshit that is completely outside of my control.

Stop telling other people to be OK with having their god damn precious time on this Earth put through a slot machine just so YOU can have the "bragging" rights of "conquering" mobs that other players are out there cheesing with almost infinite damage builds from a screen away in a PVE game that has 0 competitive value.
