Death procs
Death procs
I heard a long time ago from an imm that all death procs were going to be removed, is this still the case?
Nope, I remember it too. I could swear we were told all instant-deathprocs without a definite save were going to be yanked in favor of different ideas. This deathproc remaining I have yet to see be saved against, except for the save the mob rolls to actually proc it :P. And the fact that it'll take you out if your pet is zapped is kinda sad too. :P Heck, even TIAMAT had her deathproc yoinked, course.. she was yoinked soon after!

============
I was who was campaigning to remove them all, and I got most of them gone and replaced with more interesting (or more deadly in the long run) procs.
Some however, I left, like the Purple Wyrm and others, because I thought they were really cool :)
Some of the areas/procs however, the area maker demanded they be a certain way, so thats the way it was. I picked my battles, wasn't worth fighting over.
Got rid of as many as I could, and I believe that most if not all of the remaining ones have a save of some kind (it either might not be evident, might be VERY rare, it might not have a message when you save, or it requires something that you don't use often)...or it might not, you never really know.

Something, somewhere, might be able to save you from this, but you don't know what. It might be an item or a save, or something you don't use very much, or a skill or stat or racial innate. It might work sometimes or it might not work all of the time, or sometimes it might never work most of the time, but it certainly won't almost always not never sometimes rarely not usually work. Either way, there's no message to indicate that something you might not always not have has not never saved you.
I hope that clears it up.

I hope that clears it up.

Death Proc Resistance Testing
The circular dungeon chamber was damp and a little cold. The only light came from a small globe, a foot in diameter, that levitated over the occupants. A low 5' wide corridor snaked out from the south of the room, and there was a large, reinforced wooden door set firmly in the north portion of the wall.
The occupants were a mixmatched group. A mean looking Drow Elf with dark skin was scribbling away on a clipboard with a magical quill. Standing next to her was a slightly taller Grey Elf with long, pointy ears. The Grey Elf was looking sternly at a beefy Barbarian hunched near the northern door. The Barbarian looked ridiculously out of place. He held a long branch in his hand and had a large square of bark tied to his left arm. He wore no other armor or protective gear, except for a blazing, fiery crown which sat crooked on his pointy head.
"I'm not going back in there," the Barbarian said.
The Grey Elf frowned. The Drow continued to scribble. "You have to. We have to finish our research," the Grey said.
"You don't know what that thing does to me."
The Grey chuckled. "Yes, I do. That's why we're here. Now go."
The Barbarian stamped his foot and pouted. "No!" he yelled.
The Grey Elf took a small knapsack off his shoulder and fished around in it with his free hand. He smiled at the Barbarian. "Now Thanuk.... do you want the cookie or don't you?"
Internal conflict ravaged across the face of the poor Barbarian. He seemed to fight a battle with himself, first looking resolute, then thoughtful, then scared. In the end, he whimpered a soft "yes."
"That's good. Now just go in there. It'll be ok. I promise."
Thanuk shuffled toward the door and put his hand on the handle. He looked back over his shoulder at the Elf reproachfully. The Elf gave an approving nod. With a sigh, Thanuk opened the door and went inside.
Seconds later, the two Elves heard the patter of feet running quickly, some muffled roars, a loud crunching noise, and finally a chilling, Dwarvish scream. The darker Elf sighed. "Well Salen," she said, "looks like the Surtur test is a no-go."
Salen nodded. "Go get him, LLaaldara. We'll try something else." Llaaldara nodded and walked through the north door. Within seconds, she re-entered, dragging the badly mutilated and mostly unrecognizable corpse of Thanuk. She picked up her clipboard and began to scribble again.
Salen began praying, and slowly the wounds on the battered Barbarian body began to close and heal. With the conclusion of Salen's prayer, Thanuk opened his eyes and stood up groggily.
"Yes, well. Ok, it's not the Surtur" Salen said. He plucked the crown from Thanuk's head and shoved a pair of boots shaped like falcons into his hands. "Try the falcon boots."
Thanuk whined. "I don't want to wear the falcon boots," he whimpered. "I don't want to go in the room." He looked sullen. "It... it eats me."
"Yes, Thanuk. Yes, we know. But this is the only way. How about if I give you one of the cookies now, would that be ok?" Thanuk's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously. Salen reached in his bag and produced a small cookie with chocolate specks. He handed it to Thanuk, who gobbled it down greedily, stuffed his feet into the boots, sprinted to the door, threw it open, and dove in. Within seconds, a hideous cry arose from behind the door, and Salen sighed again.
"It's not the falcon boots." Llaaldara nodded and placed a small checkmark in one of the boxes on Page 1,351,986 of her list, entitled "Items That Might Not Never Save Us From Instant Death Proc."

Thanuk shuffled toward the door and put his hand on the handle. He looked back over his shoulder at the Elf reproachfully. The Elf gave an approving nod. With a sigh, Thanuk opened the door and went inside.
Thanuk entered the the cavern, and faced the massive purple worm before him. The worm roared angrily, and leaned over to ingest the massive beast. Seconds before tearing into the flesh of the helpless warrior, the worm froze in it's place. He and the barbarian both immediately burst into laughter. The barbarian shushed the giant worm, and pointed to a dwarf in the corner.
"Ready?" Dala said, motioning to Thanuk. The barbarian nodded, and began stomping his feet rapidly, almost running in place. Dala tossed a mangled corpse Thanuk over to the barbarian, who quickly attached his crown to the corpse. He let out a blood-curtling scream, and the wormed roared angrily on cue. He then hid in the shadows next to Dala.
Seconds later, the two Elves heard the patter of feet running quickly, some muffled roars, a loud crunching noise, and finally a chilling, Dwarvish scream. The darker Elf sighed. "Well Salen," she said, "looks like the Surtur test is a no-go."

He handed it to Thanuk, who gobbled it down greedily, stuffed his feet into the boots, sprinted to the door, threw it open, and dove in.
Thanuk rolled into the room, and the worm once again roared and bent down to eat him. This time, the barbarian tossed the cookie he had palmed into the worm's mouth, and it let out a pleasant grunt. Just as before, Dala tossed him his corpse, which he adorned this time with falcon boots. He screamed and again ran into the corner.
"How many corpses do we have left?" he asked the dwarf.
"Looks like 50 or 60 still." Dala replied.
"Damn. They'll never figure out that it's the leather penis sheath." Thanuk chuckled to himself.
"Nope. We're so l33t." The dwarf responded.
"Ub3r l33t, Dala, ub3r l33t."
