New Bug, character randomly dies

[Teramis]

Hello, someone else experiences something like.... dying out of the blue? I am talking not about some kind of crazy damage while fighting monsters, getting struck by lightning or getting poisoned but literally losing all hp while just standing and doing nothing.
Currently I'm playing with my gf on ultimate difficulty and since we got into the Burrwitch estates and so on my gf character started dying randomly in a fabulous bloody explosion. We already tried creating a new game/recconecting and it's still the same.
I thought it's monster dmg or floor dmg related, but no. I fight in one room, she is safe in the other one, but after I kill some monsters her character randomly... explodes ;o.

Edit:
Her character does not die in town or instance while standing, running, fighting dummies or in single player or multiplayergame. She dies almost instantly if another player if killing monsters in near her vicinity.

Anyone?

entirely possible a stray shot nicked her and with her low hp, if her resists aren't good then it's possible to be oneshotted at that level i think.

Upload your character to there with the button in the upper-left corner. It looks to me like she's taking damage from something you're doing - IE a bug. There used to be a few bugs to do with auras or something that very rarely and inconsistently would kill party members. Devs were going crazy trying to track them down - they eventually had to disable the component auras I think - they couldn't reproduce the bug to figure out how to fix it so they had to change the items that caused it.

Hm... you say it also happens with other players/other characters, though?

Nah, it was not a stray shot or any kind of monster/floor related damage. The video shows one of about 15 deaths that occured as we tried to recreate the bug, and it goes as i wrote in my main post with follow up edit.

All the deaths have the same factors
- me playing my character
- other character visible on player screen
- my character attacking enemies or being hit

It's hard to tell more, I will upload my character later today.
I think it has something to do with "Madness" and "Warcry" with "Break Morale" but not so sure...
I managed to kill the other character once or twice while just walking by not casting skills or with no enemies nearby... it's hard to pin point the exact thing causing it.

I will run more tests tomorrow, try to do some reinstalling, creating other chars, changing gear. skills etc. As for now i can recreate it 100% of time, just by simply following the listed factors.

This was my immediate thought. They never could track down that bug, if I recall correctly, so they programmed around it.

The orange/red animation at 19 seconds... is that part of the death animation of the skelly? It looks like maybe no.

And yeah, try to see if you can upload your buddy's character. May be an item proc which is targetting both enemies and other players in multiplayer.

Also in the upper leftish corner, it looks like another enemy in a separate room is also being damaged at the same time. It certainly looks like something is causing wide AoE damage affecting all targets, including your character.

I will ask her to upload and link it.
About the AoE damage, it seems it can be involved, but on the other hand i can reacreate it with me not attacking enemies and just running by in near proximity of a player. It now happened once or twice.
I will upload another longer video later today.

below 6k hp, ultimate (might be wihtout proper resists even) + 2 players which makes enemies stronger than in solo.

Something liek this happens to me when I fight agaisnt Avatar of Mogrdogen, but this might be a bug... is your game modded? is your game to latest version? is connection stable?

[Teramis]

The bug just kind of stopped happening. The problem seem to have flew away by it's own and I'm no longer able to recreate the bug so... its solved I guess :)

I identified it, she is standing too close to the wall and the fire guys are exploding thus hitting her.
