I have! check the HoF... after reading the last messaged before death, it seems that it was the same rat punching me from 700 -> -4... though rat! Oh well..

I couldn't find you in the HoF - what was your character's name?

Was this in the SMC, or was it a particularly extreme manifestation of the "uberjackal bug" (uberrat bug here) where after you've killed lots and lots of the same kind of monster they become unbelievably tough?

How was your luck? If you were lucky, fate smiley and not cursed or doomed, I'd have expected it to punch you from 700 to 1 rather than -4.

Commiserations on what sounds like an extremely annoying death.

It was probably the Auf character in the HoF (in Winners section). Rats are not so bad as they don't see invisible so it should be possible to kill them with bolt spells while invisible but imagine a level 100 quickling queen in the SMC. Or rather, imagine a room full of them...

yup it's auf :)

and the only annoying part was that I didn't see my score as a winner, I'd expected them to be pretty high since day wasn't even close to 50..
if that even counts.

So luck intrinsics make it more likely that your hp will be lowered to 1? I never knew that, but it makes sense... I get lowered to 1 hp a lot.

I knew it not either... I had lucky & fate smil0r and i wusn't cursed nor doomed...

edit: but ofcourse if this kind of effect exists, it still wont happen every time, right? :e
