I know for a fact that after entering the death subroutine there can be an
extra damage hit.  I checked through all my dead (and my pidely # of kills) and
in everycase when there was a kill (most of these were DA) after the kill
comment my warrior was hit with non-crits to the body and head.  Only in one
fight was there an xtra damage hit aftger the kill commment.  It is also
possible to live and keep fighting and then re-enter the death subroutine.  I
hit him, deadly bloodlust, I hit him again, deadly bloodlust again and then
he quits.  Well there is about 30-40 more confirmations for this theory, I am a
believer now.
