I submitted this in game… but I was wondering if anything like this happened to anyone else or if this was just some sort of freak incident.
It was during the event to take back Brassclaw island at the Straights of Devastation. Or to be specific, the end of it. One of the necro risen was using a channeled skill – the one with the biting animation and I tried to dodge away. At that moment the event failed. And in that same moment I was launched into the air. It wasn’t the effect, launch. I was literally sent flying upwards. If you’re familiar with the Skyrim bug where giants could send characters skyhigh… it was kind of like that. At that time I was close to full hp, but once I hit the ground I died. My armor wasn’t damaged upon returning to a waypoint so it was definitely fall damage that had killed me.
