**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
I expected the enemy skull damage to not do that much damage, it did more then I expected.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
Just noticed it

**Steps to make it happen again**  
Not sure.

**Further info**  
Hero class was slayer with no traits and the talents Ferocity, chill of death, soul caller, icy veil. The weapon a +9 mountain crusher. The enemy was Envoy Of Pride with all traits. The skull match was 3, with a doomskull in the middle. When it exploded it also got 2 more skulls off to the side. I can see the correct skull damage value of 35, but under that is another number that I cannot makeout. It would have to be at least 19 to do a total of 54 needed to be lethal.  
Perhaps I don’t understand how doomskulls work. I would have expected the doomskull explosion to add +2 dmg from the 2 side skulls. I don’t see where an extra 19dmg comes from.

Probably the same bug [[Reported] Instant kill with no reason](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/more-info-needed-instant-kill-with-no-reason/57430)

similarities ive observed:  
\_cascaded skull match(es)  
\_the skull match involves at least 1 doomskull  
\_the doomskull explodes adjacent (doom)skulls

As i said in the other thread, i think exploded skull counts as a seperate skull match
