Talk:Suicide Health

I have only my assasin there, so my testing options are rather limited, but I have verified that Shadow Form does not help at all. I assume that there is no protection from this skill whatsoever, other than killing them off from a distance. Things that need to be tested: --84-175 (talk) 03:53, 21 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Can damage by this skill be prevented by Protection Prayers? No, tested with Protective Spirit
 * Can this skill be denied by Greater Conflagration?
 * Do blinding, blocking and evasion work?
 * What about Mist Form?

If you can make a minion or a spirit they will also suicide on them.. which is an excellent way to solo farm them.
 * To back up this question: My impression was that the vampires use a touch skill, instead of an attack skill. Which one is right? --Xeeron 07:07, 24 May 2006 (CDT)


 * With mist form, you still get hit, but you take no damage. This can be seen by using mist form against a mob with, for example, savage slash since it will still interrupt you.  I guess shadow form is working the same way.  Since the description says the target "loses" health, there's nothing that can prevent it.  Dodging, evading, and blinding should work.  I'm not sure about great conflagration, since other skills say hit by/for "physical damage," not "attacks." But, if this turns out to be a skill, then I guess all of this doesn't matter.  --68.142.14.9 08:33, 24 May 2006 (CDT)

Not A spell, for sure
Some time ago a noob elementalist bring Obsidian Flesh in Urgoz. And for our group, to the deprivation for a real nuker he added the waste of an elite skill that doesn't stop Suicide Health (he runned in to test it lol). I recall that Obsidian Flesh stops spells. In the end, at least we have the knowledge.

Consequence 1: Spell Breaker will fail.

In my opinion, it is a touch skill. No evasion nor blocking hill help. Keep running! &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.94.131.22 (talk &bull; contribs) 18:58, 11 August 2006 (CDT).

"next"?
If this skill itself is an attack, then does itself count as "the next time an attack lands", or would that be the attack after this skill? - 16:56, 4 July 2006 (CDT)

since it is a touch attack- it could be stopped by "can't touch this"(nightfall skill) or by clumsiness, ineptitude, and skills which defend against attacks greater conflagration seems to be the only long term solution however

Solo Farming
because of their suicide skills.. i find these vampires very easy to solo farm by just making spirits or minins and letting them suicide on them.. + the suicide skill CAN be interrupted btw

Protection
Divine Intervention or Judge's Intervention will protect you from this skill 128.84.2.73 23:35, 14 May 2007 (CDT) +feel free to verify this, I have and I can guarantee you it will work128.84.2.73 23:35, 14 May 2007 (CDT)
