What was your most random death? Mine has to be, when a Vertibird crash landed right on my head. Wasn't even mad at the game.
Was sneaking around in the wasteland. Status was HIDDEN and no enemies in sight. Then a nuclear explosion happened. I have no idea what caused it.
Well, you didn't specify own death...
Most random (and most hilarious. I laughed for a minute straight) death for me was the ignoble death of a legendary raider. I was stealthed at the front door of the Pickman Gallery. Has a stair well that goes up 2 floors, so its a nice 3 story total stairwell. Me and Cait got spotted and a firefight ensued. During the fight while trying to shoot the raiders on the top floor, one of them, I don't know why, suddenly apparently tried to jump across the gap in the stairwell and was short. She fell down the well and died on impact in front of me.
The funny part was after the shooting died down and I started looting. That is when I found out she was legendary, and when I grabbed the loot she had a "Lucky" metal left leg. +2 to luck ... and she missed the jump. I laughed and laughed and laughed.
Jumping off a pickup on the street and dying immediately with full health. Probably more a bug than an intended way to die, but random nontheless.
Wanted to check out the what was on the walls in Diamond City while standing near the green wall. So I took out my scoped hunting rifle, I look through, screen freezes and boom... I'm dead.
How is that for random?
