voids = yag

[The Rift]
Crimson veins run through the black marble of the walls of the throne room. The streaks seem to pulse, as if it they were actual arteries carrying blood through the rock. Upon a massive, corroded silver throne sits a man whose eyes are pools of black essence. "Slaughter them," he is saying. "Kill them all and leave their corpses for the maggots." You also see a swirling black void.
Obvious paths: north, east, west.

The black void whirls around violently tossing debris everywhere!


The black void continues to suck the air out of the area!

It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...

You mentally give a sigh of relief as you remember that the Goddess Lorminstra owes you a favor.

You are a ghost! You must wait until someone resurrects you, or you decay. Either way, it won't be long now! (HELP for more details).

You feel thousands of tiny things swarming over your skin for a moment.

This has never happened to me before usually I get a 1-3 round stun tops.

What armor you have?

I've got 7x heavy crit padded full. Never once did I die on a void.

I know Malok's got 8x or 9x very heavy crit padded double (full protection) and he minimally was ever stunned by a void. I even saw Avatar running around with the same leather and he was never killed.

Shouldn't happen to you too often Zent :P reg

Yea that was Jaeden that died in his somewhat padded double leather. Zentalin doesn't get hit all that much in his FGB.

I have to agree with those who say padding has nothing to do with it. When I hunted on 1, I *NEVER* died from a void and I only wore NON-PADDED plain 5x double leather. I think the most I ever had was a 2 round eye hit. I think it's mostly encumberance and luck. But those who really know can never tell.. <shrug>
