Thread: incapacitated by misadventure reasons?

Can we get a list of reasons why players would be "incapacitated by misadventure"? Maybe there exists a list already and I just can't find it?

its only falling injuries, but "You have been incapacitated by misadventure" just sounds good =D

No it's not.

No it's not just from falling, i was "incapacitated by misadventure" the other day running an vol 1 epic quest, the main baddie incapacitates you and you wake up far far away with the complete dread and everything.

If you kill yourself using Blood Rage you are incapacitated by misadventure.

some watery doom--the water in Carn Dum and Urugarth, as well as inside the tower in Thangulhad in Mirkwood

Watcher stones on the border of W/E Angmar, if you haven't done the epic chapter to get the passive trait.

Falling, crossing the Watcher Stones in Angmar without the Epic-given trait, green water in CD/Uru, icy water in Forochel...

Then there are the glitchy deaths due to misadventure -- like falling through holes in the map, walking into an invisible cloud in Lost Temple when you have the eye..I think there are a bunch of those as well.

I think you get that message for any deaths caused by the environment (including but not limited to the ground )? I was going to say any deaths outside combat but I recall a death by the acid pits inside CD While fighting slugs.

Volume I, book 9, chapter 1 is a misadventure (no repair damage from death).

Incorrect.

I got "incapacitated" after completing the volume 1 book 3 final instance and instead of loading me back on the floor of the council chambers the game decided I fell from the sky. Yeah I was mad.

Nope. This is not misadventure. The Icy Waters kill you and you will get damage done to your gear.

Correct. It's because the water puts a wound DoT on you, rather than just killing you instantly.

What about the Bree cheese?

What about attempting to swim the Anduin? It used to be the SuperOrcs nailed you, but then after MW went live it changed to just sudden simple death. Misadventure or heavy-handed hint to take a boat?

I got it by falling off of my horse once and got it.

A day or so into playing the game, I fell off a waterfall...

Correct. It's because the water puts a wound DoT on you, rather than just killing you instantly.

If you make it far enough out into the water(and survive the dot), it is misadventure.

I got it once by jumping my horse down the hill leading north out of
aughaire. It was what would normally should have been a leg break, a very small ways to fall forward. My best guess is that the location reader logged a far greater drop than I actually did.

While running The Library with a Champ who likes to make people cheer him, we finished a fight and he had well over half morale but did have a poison on him, he did the 'cheer me' button and killed over dead from misadventure.

anything that is an instant kill (regardless of mitigation, buffs, health, ect) and it not from an npc (this does exclude the 1 shots in the ettenmoors). This would include falling to your death, certain terrains that kill you (green water in CD, fire, lava, and actually running off the map into no mans land). There is actually 1 point in the book quest where you are incapacitated by misadventure as well.

The only one left that I can think of is the reaver on silverlode that managed to get the name misadventure. This is KBs = "you have been incapacitated by misadventure."

That got me just a few minutes ago. Figures....

Jumped over some stairs in Moira and landed behind some statue near a door and got it.

Anything which kills you from zero morale is a normal death - gear damage. Misadventure is all the other kinds of death, ie. scripted , falling, deadly map locations - no gear damage.

Anyone know the reasons for NPCs being killed by misadventure(are they the same?)? I was in Annúminas yesterday and saw on chat an elder angmarim npc getting killed by misadventure on two separate occasions(and it wasn't a player/pet).

Not in the Moors :-)

"Misadventure defeated Harigast."

Well, Harigast is my Rune of Restoration! lol

I know this is a little bit of a necro but wanted to add my report of getting killed by "misadventure". I was helping a kin-mate questing in Lashkarg, ran up a hill and got stuck next to a tent trying to examine a "chest". Suddenly - boom - killed by "misadventure". I will admit I was jumping around trying to get unstuck.

You can get killed by misadventure in hytbold..slingshoting warsteed into walls and such. Its FUN !

This just makes me wondering: who else when they were new noticed "Hey, falling doesn't damage you in this game" and then jumped down from a big height for fun because of that?

Anyway, I once had a very weird one: I logged in with my character in a falling pose. Fortunately, I didn't get incapacitated yet, but I couldn't fix it by logging out or walking through a door or anything. So, I just decided to float my way through the game and do stuff. Suddenly, somewhere between half an hour and an hour, I "finally" got incapacitated randomly.

I think the misadventure that killed my elf was poison out of battle. He got shot by a goblin arrow, killed the goblin, walked away, and dropped dead from misadventure which seemed to take the form of a green gas cloud.

Got caught between a rock and a hard spot in Rohan, "death by misadventure."

I remember somewhere in Moria (90% sure it was one of the session plays), there were these fancy little lava fountains that lined one of the halls, with lava just falling neatly into it. Maybe the poor dwarf realized there was a balrog down the hall, but for whatever reason, I decided to jump and see if there were invisible walls around the lava.

There weren't.

That is probably accurately labeled as misadventure.

Well you get incapacitated either from losing all of your morale in battle (being defeated) or by falling off something too high. Being 'incapacitated by misadventure' is part of a message which you may or may not see when completing the deed "A Deep Well"
That was a deep well
You have injured yourself in a fall!
You have been incapacitated by misadventure.
You collapse from injuries sustained in a fall!

My most memorable death by misadventure, lvl 50 trying to swim from Froggmorton to Hobbiton-Bywater while drunk for the Inn-League Challenge.

My most recent death by misadventure I was stuck between two fences in Snowbourn and tried to jump out of it on my war-steed. It was only a 4 foot hop but died from the massive lag spike that hit at the same time.
