this is a myth which i still believe to be true... from personal experience.

You lose HP quicker from 50% to 0% than from 100% to 50%.

By that i mean you get hit for more often, and also at max damage more likely when you are at say 20% hp compared to say if you are at 90% hp.

I always believe this is true. for example I can kill a blue con mob which got me down from 100% hp to 60% hp, and i thought i can kill another one before i had to rest, and ended up dying.

There is some truth to this actually. Since you get an agility penalty when your hitpoints fall below a certain %. This in turn effects your armor class. So yes indeed you will get hit for more damage and more often from 0-50% than you would from 50-100%.
