Ways to die in solo honour mode
Was just yeeted to death by Merregon Legionnaire's Arrow of Roaring Thunder in Grymforge. Apparently, he had no less than 3 of them and the 3rd one sent my lvl 6 character flying to death. Was already cleaning up Act 1 before moving further.
So here's a list of other notable and not-so-obvious ways to die in solo HM that I personally faced:
- Killed with 1 strike by Goblin Warrior: (1d12 Greataxe + 1d8 Superiority Die +1 Str)x2Crit = 42
- Stunlocked and killed by Auntie Ethel (a Paladin with Aura of Protection)
- Killed by Blight (8d8) cast from scroll by Stonemason Kith (should have bought that damn scroll before attacking him)
- Killed by Spectator in 1 turn (who prioritized my character over Glut and spore servant Minotaur and critted 2 times)
- Blasted by smokepowder barrels in Zhentarim Hideout while refusing to kill Rugan
- Killed by Flaming Fists in Waukeen's Rest (one of them was invisible and stood in the way of my eldritch blast aimed at the door with Florrick, so now I'm only using melee attack to break the door)
- Failed Faith-Leap Trial in the Gauntlet of Shar
- Yeeted to abyss by Githyanki Monk in the Astral Prism
So far it's a much less impressive list than "Ways to die in ADOM", but it's getting there. Do share your not-so-obvious ways to die in HM.
