So here I was, running a pistol build on Ao666. I was past the 100th floor, and all was well. Had my trusty speedloader pistol on one hand, and the grammaton cleric beretta on the other (a lucky find, too, considering I found it quite early on). I had nothing to fear for most part, since in time I got a fireproof energy shield with extra defense thanks to a power mod. I was able to clear crowds while surrounded with ease (thanks to gun kata) and only get hit once or twice (and thanks to the armor, that didn't matter much.) Hell, nightmare arachnotrons posed little threat as they went down in two shots. All I needed to do was make sure I stock up on as much ammunition I could find, and that was easy enough.
And then it happened.
It was hubris. A cave full of agony elementals, and I thought I could take them on before they land a hit. I was only able to bring down one. Just one. The lost souls were easy enough. The full auto fire of the beretta can kill a number of them when lined up. Aiming for the agony elemental was not. Since I relied on gun kata to do the reloading for me, the moment when I couldn't finish the agony elemental in one clip spelled my doom. Soon enough, I was surrounded. All the skills I invested in for most part focused on shooting, and due to the large amount of ammunition I had, I only had few medpacks.
I could have escaped, but it was a matter of being obsessive that I tried to take down every enemy on each floor, and I wasn't going to run away from that. With steely eyed determination, I tried to take down as many lost souls as I can. On a corner in the cave where only three enemies could attack me, I made my final stand. It was hubris that ended the life of my player... well, that and probably a hundred lost souls swarming upon me.
Man, in hindsight, it's such a waste.
