Discipline Before Dishonor Posted May 14 Report Posted May 14 (edited) I had bear helmet, bear leggings, and leather body armor. My class is the "Orphan", which has 20 base health upon spawning, and I ended up getting one-hit killed by a nightmare drifter during stream, video evidence here at approximate timestamp 3 hours and 40 minutes in. I had maxed out protein nutrition and some other nutritions as well, which would have put my HP at roughly 24 ish minimum. I was missing a tiny amount of health, but not much. They do 20 damage with tier 4 attack, but I ran it in this damage calculator, https://codepen.io/VeryGoodDog/pen/JjjgeYv, and their max damage (including the attack tier of 4 against me without armor, just in case my bear armor was broken and they hit that body part) was apparently 20.80, 21 HP rounded up. I'm seriously wondering how I died here, and I think a bug is the only viable way of explaining it. Does anybody else know something that I don't about why I died here? The damage against an armored body part should have only been roughly 13 points, according to this calculator, since bear and leather armor are very similar. I also got hit by the same nightmare drifter prior to this, but he only took away 66% of my HP when he hit me. The damage should have only been 21 points if I was not armored when hit. Did nightmare drifter damage get buffed or something? Edited May 14 by Discipline Before Dishonor
Discipline Before Dishonor Posted May 14 Author Report Posted May 14 Just a thought, I've noticed that sometimes my character uses 2 bandages instead of just 1. This even happened right before I died when I was healing the damage. Is it possible I got a double-dip of damage the same way it gives a double-dip of bandage use sometimes? 1
williams_482 Posted May 14 Report Posted May 14 Ouch. I've noticed the double bandage use a few times. There being a similar bug with damage is believable, I suppose. My first thought is that maybe you got sniped by a bowtorn or something at the same time the drifter hit you? That would be an extraordinary coincidence but it is theoretically possible.
Discipline Before Dishonor Posted May 14 Author Report Posted May 14 (edited) We found out what happened. Basically I got hit by the drifter once, survived with 33% hp remaining. I healed, but my bear leggings or helmet likely got broken from the first hit, so when he hit that part again, he one-shot me. They have 50% more damage on Wilderness Survival, which brought his max hit to 30, more than enough to kill me. It wasn't a glitch but a perfectly normal skill issue sort of death Edited May 14 by Discipline Before Dishonor

It's more expensive than bear armor, to be sure, but it does offer more protection and durability and you don't have to fight a bear to get it.

You just may have to fight a bear on the way to or frome acquiring sufficient amounts of copper. 3 hours ago, Teh Pizza Lady said: So not a bug then... Oh dear. Don't tell me LV-426 is involved.
