When Slaughterfish attack

I was recently killed instantly by a single Slaughterfish attack of nearly 45K. I wouldn't mind so much but I wasn't actually in the water at the time, I was stood on a rock above the water. I can only imagine that the Slaughterfish leapt out of the water and swallowed me whole, although I didn't actually see the fish, so perhaps it just used it's 45K Ultimate 'Toe Nibble' feat or something.

Meanwhile I can actually, with no trouble whatsoever, catch these Slaughterfish and skin them without a fight.

What shall we call this, expected behaviour? I mean sure, ESO aint real life. I don't have to queue to talk to a bank vendor or anything. But... well... sheesh.

    You have never truly played an MMO until you have been attacked by a ravenous fish, followed by it onto land, chased up a tree, and been killed there. I think murderous fish not knowing their place have become an expected trope of the genre. :wink:

    That wasn't so bad. You got an achievement in return, didn't you.

    Brody tried to warn them. But they still let us go in the water.

    Dang it son, you beat me to it.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    I find it equally odd when I slay a Skeever, and I find one destruction staff and a helmet inside of it. Makes me wonder where it hid them o.O
