    So here is this issue I've been having that I noticed during my two last playthroughs:
    I die, and I have no idea what killed me
    It would be cool if when you die you got stuck in place for like 2 seconds while the "YOU DIED" text appears so you can analyze your surroundings and say "Ok so I died because because I got sniped by this enemy" or at least be able to know what could have killed you, because I keep dying and I don't even know why, it makes deaths feel kind of unfair honestly, being given 2 seconds to look around and see what killed you would fix this issue I have recently
    Also not gonna lie, it feels incredibly anti-climatic to be fighting, for example, Qira and when you die you just get TP'ed to Eltom like nothing happened, these two seconds would make the death feel a lot less anti-climatic

    But yeah something like a little 2 seconds cutscene in which you get stuck in place and get told "YOU DIED" before getting teleported back to a safe zone would help a lot make deaths feel less unfair and anti-climatic

    Also due to this having the possibility of getting annoying, add an option to /toggle it

    I feel like that could get annoying, but I could see the value of this. It would be nice as a toggleable option, but usually when I get killed, I know why, more or less, so having to wait for two seconds might be get annoying, especially if you use /kill liberally.

    I think death messages could also explain it better. Not just "You died", something like "Player was killed by The Eye using Wave".

    If you're glassy (Like under 8k hp, especially for archers and shamans) and have sucky ele defenses against the eye (Like -500 or less adding up your water, earth, and thunder defenses) and you have weak MR and you're out of mana so you can't use movement spells to run from the wave for a bit. Its a p rare situation though i think.

    Anyway, this idea only seems good for stuff like the Eye/Qira or any actually hard boss. Both bosses have a lot going on at once (Especially the eyes 3rd phase, in which if you have a bunch of stuff going on, death knell wretches, normal wretches in the back of the room, gazers, lasers, meteor, push, etc).

    wouldn't be that informative if you get comboed, since you only learn what the finishing blow was. there's situations where wybel take me down to single-digit hp with meteor, then i subsequently die to minion melee
