Copied it from a bit back, before relevant fight even started. However, as near I can tell, I somehow managed to kill the enemy and myself with physical damage, on an attack that doesn't have a radius. Chat in game wasn't able to puzzle it out, and solipsists should be invulnerable... so how did this travesty happen? Especially if I 'chopped myself to death' without any sort of weapon.

Not exactly sure about the how of it, 'cause I didn't see anything that could have kept distortion running on the target, but it looks like you got hit with a critical distortion bolt effect, presumably the AoE part. Which can self-kill before the bolt hits tlvl 5. I didn't think that was possible with just bolt, but... maybe something odd happened, I'unno.

Yes, it looks like the distortion effect was still present on the target when the second distortion bolt was cast so the AoE from that triggered and resulted in a self-kill.

There's some oddness involving status durations. I think the status degrade and the cooldown drops either don't occur at the same time, or they do and the cooldown happens first sometimes, or something like that.

As near as I can tell, sometimes you can hit someone with Distortion Bolt twice in a row and trigger explosion, though. When I played, Distortion would be one turn but sometimes I could get an attack in on the second turn, somehow. Now that it's two turns...yeah, seems like it could happen.

It's sorta errata level mechanics, in general. Bad luck there.

I wasn't aware distortion bolt COULD distort itself, because of that duration. Guess I need to be a lot more careful with early game solipsists then, pre-talent level 5. Still disgusted to lose a life in such a stupid fashion, but, live and learn.

I think this is a turn ordering thing. If your target is far enough away, the first distortion bolt may take long enough to reach the target for a cooldown tick to go off in the middle of it. Then the cooldown will be 1 turn in advance of the distortion, and if the target gets closer anther bolt may not cross that cooldown threshold en route. Which means boom time.
