Game Mechanics: Gate - Death

[Fishbait]

I encountered a bug when gating, I was casting the spell while under attack, successfully casted Gate and loaded into my bind spot. When I arrived however, I was dead. No death message in chat, nor any you have been knocked unconscious and looking at my poor dumb body before loading out.

*Was at 14pct life when I showed the load screen hit
*Did not have any shielding/HP buffs
*May have had a dot on me, don't believe this could have caused a 14pct drop in HP due to it being a shadow knight dot(Jacker, 44 SK NPC)

I have a screen shot to post but it isn't very helpful besides saying:
