Mega crit?!?! - Muse - 02-19-2013

So I was in the Tyraturos Necropolis, Upper level, around midnight in game.
And there was a young vampire with a scythe.. My instinct was to run..
But I was like "Hey. Why not?" Jay Asher has currently 68 health and he critted me doing 67 damage but when the numbers appear above the person's head, it said 400..
*record skip* HUH?!?!?!
I instantly started bleeding to death, though in the combat log it said that only 67 damage was done.
*another record skip* WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH... WHAAA?!?!?!?!?!?
Is this something a vampire can do.. O_o
Or is this just a bug.
Cause I was damn confused when I survived the life or death struggle.
P.S. yes I realize that I didn't do the correct steps to post a problem report.
I DO APOLIGIZE.
Free versing posting is a habit I should break myself out of as far as problem reporting.

Instead of apologizing, just repost in the correct form!

Just going to say, if you got hit by 400 mechanically, you would not recover. You would have dropped below -10 and been struck dead on the spot like Silus had been by a IGMS. I think you either saw it wrong or it was a graphics glitch or a mix of numbers as both of you hit eachother resulting in your attack damage having a 0 on the end of a crit for 40. Are you sure you were not injured below max health before this happened?

P.S please repost in correct format as priority over replying to this, its simply just a thought on what may have happened

Problem description: In Tyraturos Necropolis, Midnight (In Game). Jay Asher is level six with 68 maximum hit points currently, and I saw a Young Vampire. We engaged in combat, and he did a critical doing 67 damage in the combat logs. BUT i was instantly hit into the bleeding to death stage and survived the life or death struggle at -8 hitpoints. When the damage numbers appear above the characters/objects head, it said the critical did 400 damage.
Steps to Recreate: Log in with other PC's and spawn Young Vampires testing their critical hits.
Expected Results: I should be hit with the critical, but if it doesn't take up all of my HP, it shouldn't automatically send me into the bleeding to death stage.
Actual Results: I was critted when in the combat logs it said not all damage was done.
Workaround: RUN FROM YOUNG VAMPIRES.

P.S. Dremora i'm extremely positive I was at Maximum health at the time. The only thing was I have 26 AC, and I was under the effects of Jhuild.

Do you have screenshots of the event? Anyway, if your character is hit by a SINGLE blow that sends him below 0 not the full damage is done to your character to ensure your pc will enter the bleeding phase and has a chance to recover.

His first hit was a critical KTA, i don't have screenshots BUT, when we engaged, I attacked first and then he critted me right off the bat. I did hit him with the first hit, doing around 8-13 damage I think?


RE: Mega crit?!?! - kta - 02-20-2013

This is not a bug, that the logs say 67 but not 68 is technical issue. If your pc had been hit with 10000 points it would have said the same.
