Default Re: Does luck protect from Infernal prison?

Renojustin,

I just checked, and Luck does NOT protect against Soul Slay. It also doesn't protect against Mind Burn if you up the damage to 999. Apparently 999 is a special value for damage that bypasses Luck.

Soul Slay and other spells like it (petrification etc) have a listed damage of Death, i.e. resist or die, while luck protects against spells that cause damage but not instadeath. So it does follow logically that luck does not cover soul slay even if the implementation of the instadeath mechanic is 999 damage.

Thanks for testing. I didn't know Luck doesn't protect against insta-kills.
