So, yea, this happened before I could react and was in defensive, with brawling, and 3x dodging. Boo!
An elven mugger springs from the shadows and strikes at you!
[Roll result: 133 (open d100: 40)]
An elven mugger delivers a blow to your head with his mace!
...8 damage!
You are stunned!
You are dazed!
Roundtime: 5 sec.

AS: +309 vs DS: +278 with AvD: +31 + d100 roll: +69 = +131
... and hits for 8 points of damage!
Whiplash!

A half-krolvin marauder swings a falchion at you!
AS: +331 vs DS: +278 with AvD: +35 + d100 roll: +98 = +186
... and hits for 50 points of damage!
Powerful slash!
Your left leg is severed at the knee!
You fall screaming to the ground grasping your mangled left leg!

Solid strike caves your skull in, resulting in instant death!
You look rather squishy compared to what bandits do to me.
Looking back through the log of my last bandit hunt, I estimate you are about 60 DS short compared to me. You are dealing with bandits about 50 AS higher and I had about 10 more DS when jumped like that. MnE plus statue were all the outside spells I had, and thats about what I consider minimum standards for me to hunt bandits.

Well, there went 30 DS right there. I actually have that string highlighted an annoyingly bright pink so I don't miss it. I see that, I either run (if I don't have the mana) or recast it. Unless of course it's too late and I get my head smashed in--as was the case here for you. Maybe invest in some cdef to avoid more of their maneuvers?
I actually love bandit tasks!
... But then again, as Vultieri's player mentioned elsewhere, Proa's a glutton for gory punishment.
>It dropped because I was subdued which means I can't run. The entire process went, subdue (I'm paralyzed) -> focus barrier drops (-30 ds) -> ambush leg (prone, paralyzed, -30 ds) -> attack head -> dead. It took all of three seconds and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it.
You have cloth AvDs in that clip which would indicate that you didn't have 1202 running when hit. You can check the log to see what spells dropped at the time of death. If 1202 was active, you weren't wearing robes or armor.

>That could explain a lot. I'm not the mechanics guru you are so I can't say whether or not that would have saved me. I've swapped to using just Augmented Chain from now. I'm converting MTPs to use Transformation and I like the CvA of additional armor more than the paltry DS I lose.
The fatal blow, "Solid strike caves your skull in, resulting in instant death!", would have likely been a maximum Rank 2 head crit (1 round stun w/minor injury) if you were wearing the chain.
Predicting the outcome range of the penultimate attack is less reliable due to the ambush crit weighting, but I highly doubt that your character would have lost a limb.
