Sometimes you have to stay airborne to dodge the bats and lightning balls at the same time.

I jump. and hide behind the stairs.

I almost never use my booster against Misery >.>....

Just to beat her, I wouldn't need it, but it helps to get to her faster so you can rack up more damage before she teleports again. (I think she automatically teleports when she takes 80+ damage, is this right?)

My first death was to the knife-guy in the Graveyard. D:
Same here. The Basil killed me shortly afterward, but not because I went after the Life Capsule (I skipped it the 1st time playing... Paranoia...).

Yes, that's exactly what happens.

EDIT: Just thought of another annoying death... Underestimating the Core's large energy blast's damage, thinking they'd deal 10 damage instead of 20...

Not as good as some others mentioned, but still annoying to a certain extent...

I've always been too afraid to let myself get hit by one of those big energy things. I always looked at them as certain death lol In fact I think they probably should be certain death ;p
Scary sound too.

I'll have to say I think it's the coolest attack or one of the coolest in my opinion :)

I was on the other side of the room once and didn't see him fire, I went from winning with health to spare and without using the life capsule (second or third playthough) to "You have died...".

I always run back to the nearest save point first. :)

She takes a maximum of 90 damage, but on rare occassions I've hit her for 108 or something.

I thought it was time-based, not damage-based, but it could be both. I think she has teleported without taking any damage when I was fighting her.

It is both. If you don't attack her at all or attack her less, she'll still teleport after some time.

Misery move in a predictable fashion.
...
^_^

My most annoying death?
Ummm...
The time I *somehow* got stuck *in* a wall when "fighting" the Core.
I drowned.
-_-
I was all like WTF?!
Jump - headbonk.
Shoot Snake - as usual.
Move - nada.
Then the water rose and I was like "Ah, Hans Bricks." ~FaceKB~ "There I go."
And the Core had a single Snake shot left, too...
:'[

Most annoying way to die? Ask Booster ~
"Argh.. I'm hurting, but I have my booster pack so I can get over to that teleporter.

Oh wait there's Quote!! *hands over Booster* *waves bye*
Wait I can't move without the booster.... " *dies*

Cool, someone who knows Morrowind too! One of my favorite games!

Whatever, the most annoying way to die is clearly being killed by Toroko. And I'm not talking about Frenzied Toroko. It isn't a joke, I think she really killed me once! XD
I think that being killed by the falling blocks after the fight against the Undead Core is pretty annoying too, but they've never hit me. Unless you try to do a speedrun it's pretty easy to dodge the blocks.

Morrowind is great..! Do you know about the the vast amount of Morrowind mods out there?? I'll talk about it sometime in the chat thread if you want :)

Oh and I remember an annoying way to die...
Forgetting to save and dying lol Especially if it's out of your control; like if the keyboard stops responding and some critter just stands on you. Or pressing the jump button and nothing happens ;p Or if there's a popup or error that'll cause me to die lol

As for the falling blocks...
I've never understood what the problem with them is, atleast for the ones on the way to the Balcony Edge. I'd always just moved straight to the area as fast as I could, and haven't come near being hit. >_>
