someone's in a battle and they have to avoid taking even a single hit? Most commonly because the enemy is using a poisoned weapon, but there could also be other reasons.

Made me think of Achilles but that's not right because he only needed to avoid being struck in his heel

In the first Zone of the Enders the AI gets a computer virus and can no longer monitor your health points. It's then assumed you are always one hit from being killed and will self destruct even if you were just at full health. I don't know what this is called, though. I don't see it mentioned on the tvtropes page. Maybe a variation of Glass Cannon.

I think the trope is just poisoned weapons https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PoisonedWeapons
the two that immediately come to mind for me are Dune and Hamlet --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SingleStrokeBattle I saw these earlier. The first one was the first one I found, but I don't think that fits what he's looking for. Only because of how he described it... While the second one could work, I think he's looking for something different... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.

I was wondering because in the series I'm reading one guy specializes in getting a grip on the opponent's limbs and then dislocating/breaking them, and then going in for the kill (so obviously taking even one of those hits would be very bad). I saw those other tropes while searching, but they don't really cover that situation.

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SingleStrokeBattlethat's where you have a sword fight that ends with a single barely-seen slice. I think common in Japanese (Kurosawa) films. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OneHitKillthis is just the concept of one-shotting OP is looking for something like "a fight where for some reason the protagonist will die if he takes a single hit, so has to fight particularly defensively" --- ...
