I was killed by ... a fluffy .. white .. bunny .

Seriously, I was 4th level he was between me and the stairs, I had to try to kill it to get out, I failed.

What's the weirdest thing you've been killed by in this awesome game?

The fluffy white bunny has killed me a few times as well. It's essentially a joke monster, homage to the 'vorpal' bunny in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Maybe he should show up in deeper dungeon levels or only spawn in the old forest so new players don't have to worry about him in the trollshaws? I'm all for some humor in the game but losing a character to essentially out of depth monsters might turn new players off to the game. I can see some nerd rage showing up the first time someone dies to a fluffy white bunny and causing them to give up on the game before they really give it a chance.

True .. hum

Making him Old Forest only keeps him away from true noobs since they'll start in the Trollshaws. Anyone that's played enough to hit Old Forest before Trollshaws probably won't give up if they lose a character to something unexpected.

Probably a better option then making him show up only at deeper depths or higher character levels.

Done

I'm not bitching about it or anything, I was low level, no big deal dying.

It's just my 8 yr old nephew was watching and he laughed so hard and still does when I mention fluffy white bunnies.

Aye, didn't take it that you where CD. But since it was brought up thought I'd mention the possibility of a new player ragequitting over it you know?

Besides, players ragequitting is only fun once they've spent countless hours on a character only to have it be killed by something that was most likely their fault or completely avoidable!! MHWHAHA!!!
