    what's your worst critical miss ever? I was an elf using a pyro-axe. blinded, knocked down, +200% damage. Oh, and I died too, somehow I decapitated myself with the axe, pretty amazing...

    My worst had to be when I was shooting at a couple of arachnids, Damage+200%, Scarred, Knocked Down, and I guess my gun hit me in the head, I died.

    Well, I'm not as far into the game as most of you, though I do have a story about my own worse crit failure.

    One happened in Shrouded Hills. I had had Virgil wait outside the temple, so I could knock the dwarf out and blow up the steam engine - I didn't want to kill the poor dwarf. So, while knocking him out with fists, I fumble, and somehow scar myself.
    Doc Roberts fixed that though :smile:

    Admitted, mine's not that bad all things considered, but it is funny.

    In my zeal to rid the world of evil, I found myself standing over the body of my last UNCONSCIOUS enemy. I was so excited by my victory I forgot the basics of sword-swinging and hacked off my own head.

    Apparently the devil takes care of his own.

    when i spelled gas cloud in second level of air element, Virgil said something like "Are you blind? I mean, we'd do better next time" and reaction of him turn into -1000. weird, but he's still happy with me.

    I don't have many critical misses.
    but a good thing to do in battle is when you're fighting against archers,try to stand somewhere in the middle of them and if they misses you they will probobly hit some other archer.

    Works realy good...
