Death by indecision, on whether to fight the tripod bot or to flee.
… i decided to fight till it shot fire at me, then ran, then decided to fight, then ran cause my attacks were not doing damage. and i didn’t want to ram my car into it for the fear it might explode…
Should have drove away, dug a bunch of pits, then kited that thing into them and looted the spoils… or throw an explosive at it.
