This is interesting news indeed. Can anyone else confirm? I'm stuck at my desk until this afternoon. If they snuck some ninja love into the update that was not included in the patch notes I would be most happy. |

If you think about it, being stabbed would just be horrible. What a horrible way to kill someone. I'd rather be lasered to death. LASERED TO DEATH. CCP Mintchip // Twitter - @CCP_Mintchip Dust 514 Community Rep |

Gotta be fourth worst way to go (without being too specific or situational) behind Burning, Electrocution, and Drowning. |

It's amazing what a coordinated team of nova knifers can do in a span of two minutes! Check out this shocking footage. |

Moving targets are still iffy to hit, and don't try to take someone on if they are backpedaling. You can't win.
Knives still have a LOOONG way to go .
Refer to the scouts page, or even the knives are broken page for more proof. 1.5 hasn't fixed NK hit detection at all. |

As someone with degrees in Photonics Technology as well as Optical Science and Engineering... You really don't want to die from a high-powered laser.
Besides ionizing the air and causing small-scale electrocution effects to a conductive target, you are talking about an explosion if there is any and all liquid that turns into steam, the general ignition of any biological target, not to mention the general explosive/incendiary effects when something suddenly has two radically different amounts of energy and temperature differences.
Just imagine melted bits of burning dropsuit being meshed with your skin after the hit, too... |

Death by lasers at their current levels is rather unpleasant and excruciating way to go.
Imagine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj5CG9kzDYY#t=1m15s but no explosion and under 5 seconds of exposure and the first second of exposure of a high powered laser is enough to make you stop everything you're doing.
and no don't ask how I know this. |

Drowning I think it depends. Forced drowning, or accidental. Forced being someone holding you down (terrifying) or you've passed out and are drowning (accidental). I would say stabbing is worse. Burning is also extremely awful. I have no idea about electrocution... I imagine it's like burning. CCP Mintchip // Twitter - @CCP_Mintchip Dust 514 Community Rep |

I'm imagining a wound that is instantly cauterized. Like a lightsaber or something in that regard.

Physics have no place here. UV lasers would be even more interesting - no cauterization, just straight out breaking of organic bonds and clean sublimation of flesh. When we figure out UV lasers we'll finally have a perfect light scalpel.
Ofc the ancestral Ammarians among us will immediately turn it into an instrument of death.

However i have been electrocuted multiple times (this happens when you are fixing tv's on the cheap with tools that are not really meant for the job... and by tv's i mean the old CRT tv's that have step up transformers to pump 10kv to the picture tube) While i was getting shocked i didnt feel a thing but once the breaker popped all the muscles along the path the current took and surrounding area were sore as hell from contracting as hard as they possibally could for a few seconds. |

Haha my grandfather used to always talk about how dangerous TV repair was. The old ones, that is. You didn't feel anything until post the current?
So I wonder if death by electrocution is similar; since you're dead you wouldn't feel anything.
That moves electrocution way down the list imo. CCP Mintchip // Twitter - @CCP_Mintchip Dust 514 Community Rep |

I just...why is... hmmm... What the hell happened?!? All I said was a game mechanic was working better and it turned into this??
I will say this though for knives being a bad way to go. I was taught a little ninjitsu (kinda) and was basically taught if you want to do maximum damage you have to avoid bones, which rules out given them a quick death. One particularly nasty one was to dart forward under the opponents guard (what the least expect you to do in combat) basically hug them with the knife pointed towards you (bearing in mind how long the blade is first so you don't stab yourself, obviously) and insert it just off centre (avoiding the spine, about where a kidney would be) and then in one fluid movement run the blade around the front all the way to the other side.
I gave up shortly after |

Squished.

Yah. I'd rather be squished than cut or lasered.
