I woulda been like "well that was a waste" while I watched your bar drop from my stone's location

Had a similar thing happen, in that it was just not my day. Get into some Vale runs on my 13 monk/ wiz (don't judge) thinking I will dominate because I had just gone through Necro IV on elite with nary a scratch, get into Devils and the first devil comes up, and after beating on him with my weakening of enfeebling wraps and seeing all the 0s I was getting he executed a jump spinning mustache flared back kick, completely eradicating not only my HP bar but my sense of self worth and pride. I have heavy fort, I had 190 HP (which is not great but for a caster and with the drawbacks I had to assume with multiclassing wiz and monk it wasn't terrible) and with false life and all that jazz I thought I was sitting pretty at a healthy 230 hp, and it made no difference. LITERALLY 3 devils crowded and melee'd me into oblivion before I could even jump out of the way.

A little sheepishly, I gracefully accept the heal thrown by the bewildered FVS as no one else had taken any discernable damage, tell them I am going to stay back and web and cloudkill and let the big boys play. Not happening. I cast web, then cloudkill, they run through it and suplex me so hard my mullet is askew when I get raised again. Long story short (too late) I die a third time when we get to the mob at the bottom of the stairs, this time in a most unheroic fashion as they had to chase me down and beat my face in. I am stunned. I knew the mission was 3 levels up, but necro on elite is 16 too and I did GREAT there. I have capped a rogue so know all about Vale quests but seriously thought a caster with a good mix of spells (grease, fireball, merfolk's, master's touch, waterbreathing) would be even better.... nope.

At this point the barb and the FVS start talking in party chat like I wasn't even there:

FVS: I am not healing him anymore, he's gimp or something.
Barb: yeah I wouldn't even pick up his stone, worthless
FVS: can't believe some people think they can pike and it's ok

and on and on... now a lot of you might be thinking I completely deserved that, and you may be right. But the way I saw it, I was TRYING to contribute, I had done everything I could think of to guarantee a successful no death venture (heavy fort, empower/heighten/maximize, tried to stay out of the way after my first death, etc.) and was still facing the brunt of their ire. Oh the reason they had time to talk? They were all soul stones too, not too far from mine. I was the second to the last to die, right before my guildy.

Maybe those guys sucked. Deity knows I have been in some TERRIBLE Shroud runs before. But IMO I still would have finished the mission, maybe they were having a bad day. Seems strange that they got through portal beating, solving the puzzles, not killing the stupid lion first, got all the way to Harry before you realized they were gimp. I would have given them the benefit of the doubt. Usually you can tell it's a bad group when the portals take MINUTES to take down.... just my 2cp.

Epilogue: Went back in with another group and dominated that mission, so not sure what happened the first time.
