[1.0] Instakilled by myself !!! Suicide Slinger !!

[jenx]

I just returned from East, went to first backup guardian in Trollmire, fired Vital Shot (450% Prodigy damage), and the boss pulled me towards himself, thereby I hit myself with the shot, doing 2400 damage in one go. Clean dead!

I think this should (a) be an achievement for massive suicide, (b) not be allowed in future release. I was on roguelike and to die like this is ridiculous.

This is not a bug. You need to pay more attention.

Would it still not be a bug if he pulled him only one tile? Something like that happened to me once, but thankfully I did not die.

I don't see how you could pay more attention, unless you get a message before an enemy uses a talent that could potentially kill you like this. If not, it's just russian roulette... Of course, if the talent appears on the tooltip when looking at a monster, then it's your fault for not looking at your enemy more closely.

Right click on mob, choose inspect. Choose the rightmost tab (talents). Look 'em over, mouseover whatever you don't recognize. Always do this with unknown bosses.

Note that Aluin already had Irresistible Sun running when this guy decided to use Vital Shot - this was probably the most telegraphed pull possible.

True, but I had never seen IS used before, so I wasn't expecting it. On my subsequent winner, I counted the spaces between us, as its range is 5. And I stayed away and won
