When I first started playing, several of the people I knew in my high school said that entering combat skills during a time when you were in mode stun might put you back into mode kill. All I saw you do was bash once though...so that may not be right.

Zala was concentrating and still fighting here. Maybe that's the cause?

No idea what causes it, but it's been around since I've started playing, around 2001.

Yeah, it's something to do with other people or NPCs in your group being on mode kill, causing you to switch to mode kill the next combat round after you stun them. Might be related to the fact that when you're on mode kill you're still considered "in-combat" even if someone on mode stun in your group stuns the target: So perhaps if you're either casting a spell at the next combat round, or are in command lag at the next combat round, it causes your allies to "assist" you, forcing them into mode kill in order to attack the opponent.

Actually, you can do this in a group by yourself, it is caused by certain types of weapon damage, in my experience. Say you have an unholy damage weapon, and you are attacking someone of light aura, you are stunning, but the amplifier of the damage is what kills them, even though it may look like you are switching before the killing blow happens, it really is happening WITH the killing blow.

Peso may be right. I don't think it's what edoras says because it can happen even when everyone in the party is on mode stun (see multiple tom runs at zshar).

Except it makes zero sense when dealing with this log: Baldric had already stunned the NPC in question, and a tick didn't pass or anything. Also, deep-elves aren't weak to deadly wrath. HOWEVER, Zala -is- concentrating on a spell, and she may have been mode kill, thus keeping her in the fight, or she may have been on mode stun and yet because she was concentrating it kept her "in the fight" for some reason.
