I got killed yesterday, not by a weak enemey, but by my own stupidity, but a weak enemy was involved...
I found a goat at the top of a mountian (Skyrim) and tried to Fus Ro Dah it off the mountian, for teh Lolz, but ended up whirlwind sprinting off the mountain, because I forgot which shout I had equiped.
The last thing I heard? A Gleeful "Baaaa!" from the goat that just escaped death. Goddamnit.

I have to commit to stupid micromanagement to keep my military under control. As i use a specific training method for my milita, one that requires armour on pain of death, i have to make sure none of my fighting dwarves are female, have pets or like cats.renegade7 said:
In addition i keep them on a 100% training schedule (once they become weaponmasters they dont care about it anymore, in fact they get angry over been taken off duty) in a specificly made room that is close to my fortress enterance and is triple-sealed by anti-pet doors to prevent accidents.
The upshot of this particular method is i can have a full military of weaponmasters with legendary armour and shield useage and legendary fighter within a game year. Its good for when i want to wage war on the elves.
When/where does this glow happen? :/FalloutJack said:
It never happened to me and I've been playing a lot.
The only thing I can think of about that GW2 glow is the yellow aura if you've been downed and use the warrior skill to fight on for about 30 seconds. The glow may go away if you get a kill, but it's not guaranteed, and after time is up you die. But I assume that's not it, since you'd have figured that one out by now.
And if I need to be in a low lvl GW2 area, I generally run past the mobs, which often works. Often. Not always. A group of seperatists managed to nail me twice at the same place. They patroled, aggroed at long range and attacked with rifles who's shots you might not notice if you're already in melee.

I remember playing GTA: Vice City some years ago and, right after a psychotic rampage cut short by the trusty lose-wanted-level cheat, I was at about 2 health and had no armor. There was no one around who would attack me, but running around to collect the lovely floating money from the fallen, I stepped off the curb, (That little quarter-of-a-fucking-inch step between street and sidewalk) took fall damage and died. Probably should have used the health cheat sooner.
In the middle of some intense combat moments. As stated, I'm Blood Legion, so I'm in the thick of things, usually smashing something's head in. There is...no pattern of type of enemy that I can see. Some sort of white glow or haze appears and..."You have been defeated".theemporer said:
So are the fireflies in the Sylvari starting area. They take atleast 2x less damage than every other creature I faced. The fucking green knight was easier and so were the guards!Friendly Lich said:
Being a Sorcerer in Dragon's Dogma is cool and all, but it leads to situations where a wolf kills you because you can't fight one-on-one at all.
In games, Normal difficulty is supposed to represent the "real" difficulty. Legendary/Hardest is meant purely for a challenge. Considering Grunts take up around 50% of the Covenant enemies, it'd be a little easy if they weren't difficult in a group of four.madster11 said:
I played blood legion charr for a while and this never happened, what profession are you? Warrior?FalloutJack said:
I don't think it's because you're melee, I'm a guardian and I only use melee...
Really, I have no clue.
Combat does have its fair share of bugs in GW2, though. My character often teleports into walls/objects/pillars/etc. with some skills. That's very annoying, especially in dungeons.
To be fair those Ice Mages can be pretty deadly once they start spamming Ice Spike at you.SextusMaximus said:
This. I've died by many a Goomba. Little slow moving menaces.thatonedude11 said:
Those are the reason I quite playing Morrowind finally. Didnt help with the freaking dice-roll system.Metalhandkerchief said:
Warrior class, swinging around a deadly hammer or shooting with a rifle. I'm not sure this is a bug, because it looks like an effect of some kind. Here, lemme actually address the whole of the Escapist about this. One out of many might know.theemporer said:
Sometimes the attack roulette in FFXI's mage mobs can be really dumb, casting poison then sleep, which is negated when you take damage, like from poison. Sometimes the attack roulette in FFXI can be incredibly punishing; bind - nuke - sleep - nuke and so on. Suddenly you've been taken out by an Easy Prey that you feel shouldn't have aggroed you in the first damned place because you're fifteen levels above it. This has happened to me more times than I'll admit.
Binding of Isaac. Doing a Judas run. The very first item I find is the fetus in a jar (it turns your projectiles into bombs, so you do insane ammounts of damage and can easily find secret rooms). I walk into the next room ready to have some fun with my new power. A spider jams me into a corner and kills me. Damn spiders.
I consider it a glitch when I don't fall over like I am paralyzed, I was at full health when it happened, and it lasts for over a minute before I resign myself to the inevitable and stop spamming healing and mana pots.The7Sins said:
