We've all seen a lot of death in this game. We've experienced quite a bit first hand, too. Maybe our hearts get hardened to it. We all have different ways of coping with it. But sometimes we see or experience a death that affects us more than the others. This thread of therapeutic support gives you a chance to share that trauma. Simply fill in and complete the title sentence with your story.
"The saddest death I every saw was when that poor mecha knight I summoned was torn apart by a pack of zombies and reduced to a pile of parts. If I hadn't been soloing, I never would have asked for his help. And now he's dead, and IT'S ALL MY FAULT!!" (Whaaaahhhh . . . uncontrollable sobbing).

the
the most repetitive and humiliating deaths i ever [experienced] was when:
I did my first ever vana fight. and by the Phase 3 i was just praying heron would stop rezzing me because it was embarrassing that i couldn't stay upright for more than 4 seconds.
(those bullets were just coming from everywhere!!!!! and every time he mace smashed my computer would lag out for a hiccup and a half and come back with me on fire....yet....again.......)

ultimate fail.
The most fail death I ever saw was at the RJP my friend had died and I died soon afterwards I reved him while I was down cause I didn't have enough ce to rev myself. He got up got hit full on by two lumbers at the same time and died. XP

The most fail deaths I've
The most fail deaths I've seen (and experienced, I'll be honest) are when someone (me included) hits an explosive block while pwning a group of enemies. Nuking one or more teammates the same way while gunning or bombing is a close second.

Heheheheh.
Most hilarious death I've seen (recently) was actually the one I didn't see and am glad I didn't, because it's funnier in my head.
Helping a guildmate beat RT to get a few more tokens, we derp our way through the IMF through lack of teamwork and all of us being goofs. We get to the end, and my two teammates run ahead to the treasure boxes and massive lasers at the end. I check over the last area for a few hearts before I follow and see some chat pop up.
"aaaalasers" is all he gets out before his shout is cut short.
I round the corner, and sure enough my buddy is lying there under the "aaaaaalasers."
Definitely funnier having not seen what happened.

commonest
A common death I every see is when players shield Howlitzers instead of lassoing them, the explosion causing collatoral kills.

Once on Royal jelly, I was solo and After I killed it (I was low on HP) and one of the Polyp bullets hitted me right after I killed JK....

oh that's a good one canozo
Even worse, many times i'll have a pip of health left and die trying to indiana jones my way through to the token. Then the respawn of the block kills me and i think, oh yeah i probably should have just waited 4 more seconds.
/sigh

Hmm
So this one time I was gunning in a party FSC, and I was clearing the top left room with the two trojans on D25.
One of the trojans "flexes", sending a zombie mid-swing...
...into my face.

Some dude in the party asks
Some dude in the party asks for hear while in FSC on the last floor before Vanaduke. The 3 of us die for him in the fire furnaces, having him revive us for heat for a good couple of minutes, until he dies himself to the fire....while we are all still dead.

EV in T3 LD....
I decided to use Electron Vortex today while experimenting with bombing in T3 LD. And boy is it a lot of fun trolling those fire puppies and randomly sucking in dead bodies into the vortex. XD
Anyway, the funniest death I saw today was when i was frozen and I was spamming vortex to hopefully keep me covered (probably not the smartest thing considering I was guardian, but....). A random dead body came within range of the vortex and started ORBITING me until it disappeared. Me and every one else around me were in hysterics. :p

------------------
The most ridiculous death I have experienced is in T3 LD where I received 4 status all at once. Someone used 1 swing of GF on me to curse me. Someone used a blazebrand charge on me to set me on fire. Another guy used a volt driver to shock me. And then some idiot decides to callahan me and stun me. I tried to run back (slowly) to base ASAP trying to not swing my sword, but then the shock stopped me and then the fire took my life. I wished I had a screenie of it >.<

To this day I still cant get over the fact that one time I died in a treasure vault, was extremely low on health and a lisk said "o hai".

The most glorious death I
The most glorious death I have ever seen was when Steve the Mecha knight tried to solo the double trojan room in D25 FSC. (I spawned him and kited.)
He killed two of the jellies before he got Trojansmashed.

The saddest death I every saw
The saddest death I every saw was when friendly fire occurs!?!
An example would be those blind spots in FSC when bossing Lord Vanaduckie & the guy holding aggro runs to my direction where I can't see what's going on since it's a blindspot & I end up taking a direct hit K.O. from Lord Duckie. Don't call me an idiot for not shielding an obvious attack or moving out of the way! It's a blindspot foo! YOU FOO!

@Sodaaddict
If mechaknight deconstruction counts as a death, then we all have oil on our hands and guilty consciences.
Robotic life forms are life forms too!

Mecha Knights are for sacrificing Joey! I send mine in to fight a battle for me so that would be one less monster(s) in my way while I deal with the real threat(s). I salut you mecha dude! /salut
You're death is never in vain!

Hey! You make it sound like we don't have a purpose beyond being pawns in your ridiculous schemes and delusions of personal grandeur.

One day i was doing Vanaduke, and three out of four of us died by shadowfire hidden in the wall. There were three corpses just stacked ontop of it.

The most epic death I every saw was in LD, when I was having a gunner duel. The opposing gunner was constantly tagging me with his Valiance, and I was tagging him with my AP. We both found that we couldn't hit each other with alchemers, due to both of us twitching so much. It ended perfectly as his final Valiance shots killed me, and my final ap shots killed him.
The funniest death I every saw was when I got shocked by an enemy bomber. Figuring that I was going to die, I charged forward, trying to get a few hits on him. My third flourish swing launched me perfectly next to him. I was then interrupted by shock, yet I was close enough to hit him with some of the damage, killing him, while I was still alive with about 1/3 health.

One of my biggest fail deaths
One of my biggest fail deaths when i was duoing RJP and my friend next to the re spawning explotion block. I went to rev him, but i missed and ended up swinging my gran faust at the explosive block which killed me. *revs with CE*
Oh and there is always the classic "LOL you died on the spikes you noooooob" *dies next to him 5 seconds later*

I once went solo on some
I once went solo on some clockwork level. I got stuck between respawnable unbreakable blocks and the ghost block that was supposed to make them dissapear was out of my reach.
I called friend but he spawned in exact same location as me.
And the block in our place keep spawning and spawning. The shield was getting weaker and weaker... and finally broke.
Killed by a respawnable unbreakable block...

No subject line spam here, move along
I remember this awkward one in RJP where I went to rez a guy and rezed him before getting killed by a mini. Said guy revs me but accidentally clicks again and smacks the nearby explode-o-block with a faust and dies. I get back up, but the health he gave me is too small to revive him when I try so I too wound up striking the explode-o-block with my nightblade and died.
Leave no man behind.

Silliest looking death I've seen recently was in LD, I shot someone with my Callahan just as they were starting the warhammer dash. This killed them but their corpse flew off to complete the dash animation.

The funniest deaths I ever
The funniest deaths I ever saw was actually yesterday on an RJP run. Mix of 3*-4* geared guys, ALL of them die in the spike room of the first depth, some of them multiple times. None of them died by the lumber hitting them, minis, or jellies. Just failing on running through spikes. I lol'd and accepted the free heat since we finished the other side already :P

well....
the funniest death i had, was in the far left room on D25 FSC.. anyways. Im doing the room with a teammate, and were kiting the trojans.. the one trojan smashes a blast cube and starts the timer, while putting it in front of the other trojan, who then sends it flying towards my teammate with that focus blast thing.. i was scared for my teammate, for at that time the timer reached 1... until he shield bumped it right into my face. XD *dead*
my funnies LD kill though, had to be when i was using hammer on the aura isles level. i had charged it up accidentally, so i just casually released it to the left, not noticing until a few seconds later, that i had brutally and abruptly stopped the attempts of a flanking skolver striker...

The most ultimate fail death
The most ultimate fail death I have done was when I was going to revive someone at JK and moved one pixel and died on the spikes.
The other was when I died to a Chromalisk in full 5*...

Damn you, FSC
My best, yet most fail death
Ok, so, i just got to tier 3! Im all 4star! So, when i did get tier three, im like, OOOOH YEAH! Then when i go down there, i SOLO my way through it without being hit ONCE, ALMOST beat Vanaduke, and once i can almost kill him, some random rubble falls on me and i die. WHEN I ONLY HAD 9 CE! I needed ten to rev since i didnt die until then. Then i get sent back to Haven and guess what? THEN I HAVE 10 ENERGY.
*Facepalm*
The most fail death was when a full 5* guy died to a tier 1 lumber.
