Kill

The term kill refers to causing death of a creature.

When kills are made by summoned minions, totems, traps or mines, player characters are credited for kills for the purposes of increased item quantity and rarity, flasks, and achievement-related stats, but generally not combat-related stats, where the non-player entity would get the credit for the kill instead. However, there is currently a bug that causes any damage over time kills to always grant credit to the player character even if they are caused by a minion, totem, trap, or mine.

Corpses

Most creatures leave corpses on death. Non-unique monsters that are killed when frozen or under certain effects (e.g. PyrePyre
Sapphire RingRequires Level 11+(20-30)% to Cold Resistance+(25-35)% to Fire Resistance
(60-80)% increased Burning Damage
40% of Cold Damage Converted to Fire Damage
10% increased Light Radius
Ignited Enemies Killed by your Hits are destroyedLet winter come. It will only make my fire burn brighter.) don't leave corpses.

On/when kill effects

Similarly to on-hit effects, there are effects that trigger when creature has been killed:

• gain temporary buffs (e.g. charges)
• gain life, mana or energy shield
• skill-specific effects (e.g. Infernal Blow's explosion)
