Early Access Feedback - Unexplained instant death in POE 2 - Forum

" Useless#8065 wrote: i was on the map slick. i just finished a breach and loaded up with loot then took a portal to empty my inventory. i went back into the map to collect more loot (the map was completely empty) and started running around collecting more loot from the breach i did and suddenly my character made 2 noises of being hurt and died instantly. im a level 96 ranger with all capped res. also had omen of amelioration that worked and an omen of resurgence that was active at the time and is currently still active even after the death so apparently it didnt work. this is extremely frustrating because im level 96 and it take an entire day of mapping to even get maybe 10%XP. this is also not the first time ive had something sketchy happen to me on the map slick. which sucks because now its just another map that i have to avoid when im mapping. side note: im pissed :) To the omen situation: Only ONE of these omens will be used. If you have the "XP loss omen" and the "gain life/es omen when below lowlife" - only one will be activated. That's not a bug, it's stated in the item description. You have to make a choice - lose less xp or get a death protection, not both. [Removed by Support]	Posted by JakkerONAIR#4902 on Mar 3, 2025, 12:27:13 PM Quote this Post
This is definitely still happening in 0.2.0…dying out of no where fully geared up. Super annoying	Posted by ThReaperOfMars#0979 on May 4, 2025, 7:36:10 PM Quote this Post
This is still happening to me as well. I have no idea why I died. Sometimes I die, walk back to the location, and just die again. 1 shotted by some invisible force. No ground effects, or projectiles that I can see, or any mobs close to me. And I am pretty well geared. Decent ES, Evasion, Life with max resists. Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the death penalty being so insane.	Posted by MJ213#7203 on May 4, 2025, 7:51:25 PM Quote this Post
When my chrono-Titan still worked (before 0.2) it was much easier to diagnose these. I believe a lot of the mystery one-shot-from-nowhere effects are graphics lag. The mob is not rendered by your graphics card (for whatever reason) and you cannot react to its approach and attack. This happened MUCH less with Blasphemy running an 80% slow aura that reached almost the entire screen.	Posted by Nemmerle#4704 on May 4, 2025, 9:30:59 PM Quote this Post
