The problem inherent in that is that Warframe in its current state does not really have the ability to make you 'barely walk back to liset' with 'a badly damaged warframe on the brink of death' in the vast, vast, vast majority of play scenarios.

You have a shield/health bar. In low level missions, it can be ignored. As you get to level 30-40 and above, where I would assume sentients would be, it increasingly becomes a question of whether or not you have proper invulnerability strategies set up. At that point and beyond, your health bar is pretty much fully in either the 'on' position (full) or the 'off' position (ded) with precious little time spent in-between.

It's not so much difficulty as a numbers/mod synergy game.
