I really liked this feature but then I got the Helm of Calamity and no matter what I die from game tells me it was the helm 😂

Just double checked the code for that, and it looks like that's because it's still technically dealing damage after you're dead. That damage leaves you at 0 health, so the damage system thinks that that's killed you and updates the death info. Should be possible to get that fixed for 1.0.

Love to hear it. That said, this bug has been reported on the bug report forums multiple times (examples: 1, 2, 3), so I'm surprised it wasn't already on the radar (or perhaps it was, but you didn't know). Is there a better way to report bugs that is sure to be seen?

It was already on the radar, it just hadn't been prioritised and formally assigned to a dev. I just saw the comment and decided to have a quick check to see if I could spot the cause quickly.
