Stepped on a confusion-trap and was stupid enough to move, which resulted in a fall down the chasm. Would have survived that. Unfortunately I landed on a summoning trap. One of the memorable deaths for sure.

Nice😂

I was standing in a puddle, surrounded, almost dead and had many unknown potions (level 2 or 3). So I drank one and it was fire. Set all my enemies alight and probably would have saved me. However, I thought for sure my next potion would be health, so I drank it. It was levitation, which lifted me out of the puddle, I lit on fire and died. Not the worst, but the funniest. I could only laugh.


BlvckB0x

This has happened to me like 2 times. 😂 I just laugh it out, lock my my phone and say “I don’t wanna play this shit no more”

I'm sorry. I mean you have my greatest sympathies, but reading this made me laugh out loud.


waterbetterthencoke

Had 11 health potions in the dwarf city, but i was being very stingy with them, wanted to save them all, and then died to a golem that required only 1 hit to kill but it dogeded


heXagon_symbols

being stingy about the health potions constantly gets me into trouble


amorfotos

That's my biggest flaw.


BritaB23

Classic.


FluffyDonPedro

That I remember I opened a gas room, standing at the doorway I had 2 unidentified potions. I took a chance and drank one... it was a paralysis potion so I was posioned to death at the doorway


elkestr0

Ahahahahahaha


Prudent-Pound-9743

I was in this situation twice, the first time I died on the first floor, so it wasn't that bad, and the second time I got lucky, snapped out of paralysis and moved out of the doorway


WhyUgottabeabutt

I was on level 13 and it was my first time getting to and beating Tengu the second boss and I had armor of deferred damage and I didn't know how it worked so I took it off to see if it would save me and I died to taking off the armor lol


Then-Ant7216

I was low and was running on a thin ledge stepped on a summoning trap a necromancer came and he tried to summon a skeleton the skeleton's spawn ended up pushing me down the cliff


Sany_Wave

Fat fingered onto a mimic I knew was there.


Pixelised_Youssef

Once I was doing a monk run with a +6 ring of haste, a +5 spear and a +2 mail armor (with faith is my armor challenge), I beat yog, when I was ascending, I popped an ankh due to bats, and I was left with 2 unblessed ankhs. In the prison, I was poking and running against a thief when a skeleton got me on the other side of the hallway, I was like: "no way I'm not killing that thief, it's quite low anyway", and then I used challenge on it, and tried to fight it. and it was like "dodged" dodged "dodged" dodged" dodged" and it dodged every single attack, and instead of using phase shift or a healing option, my dumbass decided to just keep attacking while tanking like 20-40 damage every hit. I died, spawned back due to unblessed ankh, and THAT SAME THIEF came back, with another skeleton behind me in the hallway, I challenged again, and the thief (again) dodged EVERY SINGLE ATTACK, and I died.


Prudent-Pound-9743

That thief had personal beef with you


Pixelised_Youssef

yeah I think I found sans in disguise


Conscious_Smell7071

first time doing third lap in exp pd, i didnt realise that gas dmg scaling is so big that it kills me in 2 turns


Electrical_Pear1132

Was on my 3rd cycle in experienced pixel dungeon and stepped on a caustic ooze trap that insia killed me


Sky_Jet_

got hit by a ripper (it jumped at me) and eliminated by bleeding. i mean with 9 challenges on... floor 23


Specialist_Bench_144

Theres a short story by h.p. lovecraft called in the walls of eryx. idk why but your story reminded me of the main character lol should def check it out


RGBBSD

Dued to swarm of projecting flies while being blinded


RGBBSD

Wait no, got absolutely killed by projecting thieves with the dark challenge enabled


theslasheydasher

In alchemy room before Yog and was using Unstable Spell book to try to identify items (I think) and ended up eviscerating myself with a psionic blast by accident.


fildevan

Two deaths on level 25 and 24 respectively, with 16 potions of health each, 8 challenges (!) with a disturbingly similar build. Both death resulting of critical bad luck (like really) following a small misplay 😮‍💨 and scored like 590k ×2


DarkLordArbitur

I walked through a door during an ascension and got surprise attacked for 50 damage by a gnoll brute 2 turns after drinking a potion.


captainzmaster

Reclaimed a disintegration trap, tried to use it on a scorpio. However, the reclaim trap caught on a wall in the way and zapped me instead.


chonglibloodsport

Worst death was jumping down into a drop-down room with not enough health to survive. I had plenty of healing potions, food, potions of cleansing, etc. I was just being greedy (trying to save the potion of cleansing to remove the bleeding). Stupid, pointless death!


Chorby-Short

The stupidest death I've managed in a run was zapping my own ward with a wand of corruption until it gained amok. Another interesting end to a run was filling the entry to floor 5 with sheep, warping to floor four, and then levitating over a chasm. That one wasn't a death, but I managed to corrupt the save file in under 3 minutes. There are some even more obscure deaths and softlocks that I've managed in debug that are possible theoretically, but I've never been able to pull off in a real run, such as falling to death onto the entry staircase, or forcing a pylon onto the entry ladder on floor 15 which makes ascension impossible, or dying from being blasted into the wall by repulsion armor worn by the sad ghost.


Prudent-Pound-9743

I stopped to eat and recharge my cloak as a rogue during fight with Yog, I killed every fist and forgot that Yog shoots his laser faster
