So how can that Bone Giant recover from maiming and then get maimed again without any action from me? Self-mutilation?

PS if the numbers look high: I'm a Barbarian @ lvl 88 of the Infinite Dungeon...

I'd imagine that's just the log being out of order. The next line is you getting a critical hit - can you cause maiming on criticals?

[Jurriaan]

Yes I can! Technique/Executioner, 6/6 in Sever.

So the log's out of order - I take it the log doesn't use timestamps (or 'turn-stamps') to sort it's messages before displaying?

[grayswandir]

No, it's the execution order. The critical hit message isn't displayed until after the critical hit finishes happening - but since the attack triggered a maiming, the maiming resolves before it finishes the critical hit.
And then I think all the damage is specifically delayed so it all appears on one line at the end, instead of piecemeal after every action.
