Hey there,
So I was in West Saru, just grinding on some low level mobs to level up BLM which is at lvl1 and all was going... well enough. I was alive after the first Mandy went down, though admittedly there was much of my own blood. Still... I rested up and on to the next target. A bunny. It died a lot easier than the Mandy so I decide to stick to those guys for a few levels. ANYWAY the very next bun done this to me.
https://image.ibb.co/iWaA3y/FFXI_Sudden_Death.jpgI still had over half of my HP and died. I figured it was lag or a glitch since I have died a few times with HP still showing, but never this much. I checked the log and the Bunny in question only hit me once for 9HP. It misses the second blow, yet right after that I'm dead. I'm still dead actually... I'm hoping some charitable healer will pass by and take pity. My HP is so very far...
Anyway apologies if this is a known bug, I did check the known issues but didn't see anything immediately describing this. I'm new.
