0 HP and still alive?

I found this quite funny.

I was making the quest for the wolf pet - with an elven mystic - and i was killing the spiders and, in this process, at the same time i deal the last blow on a spider, the spider hits my elven mystic and the HP bar reached 0, but she - the elven mystic - dont died!

Must be the grace of Eva uppon her!:p

try junmping of a high wall. your HP will be 0 too, but you won't die.
is'nt that strange?

Like quite a lot of the numbers in this game, your HP isn't an integer value, it just gets displayed as such. So, when you see "0 HP", it can mean you're at 0.238... HP (after the spider hit, and still alive), at 0.000... HP (after falling down from the top of the Tower of Insolence, and still alive), or at -0.179... HP (and quite dead; or at least you would be if the game engine wouldn't reset it to 0.00 HP immediately - with you still being quite dead).

That makes all sense Akjosch, and thank you for the explanation.

A pity that this not happen more often: 0 on the HP bar... and alive!

Yeah happend to me to, i was like oh lol minus something and alive:D

I enjoyed the 0hp "undead" glitch that occured many years ago where people that you could not kill were able to still walk around and deal damage to other players..

was quite the riot...
