Exactly? Surely that's a bit of an overstatement. Unless you're killing
them with Hellfire, I suppose.

Ha ha. I remember when i killed myself in SFK using Hellfire. When i
was on the isle of Quel'Danas I dotted them up, and i was using the
imp as a mana battery, and used drain life to keep myself from dying
and when the first one died a very short time later the last one died.

Hehe, when SmartBuff was still able to use the walking keys to trigger
rebuffing (patched out of the API a long time ago) I made the mistake of
adding "Life Tap" to the spells to be "buffed" (probably a bug in SmartBuff
to even let me do that). After that I took five steps and was dead in the
middle of IF. Didn't realise what had happened, rezzed, took two steps dead.
Took me another two deaths to realise what was going on :-)

Warlocks are the only class that i know of that can commit sucide.
Sometime on purpose (BRD) and sometimes by accident.

Shadowword:Death at low health could do it, but as it has a cooldown I'm not
sure if you can keep up with health regen and it certainly won't do for a
quick suicide from full health. Plus I'm not sure if it incurs the 10%
durability loss or not (I know hellfire does not).
