Subject: Fire and Cold Resist


Ok well my bard isn't high enough for the Fire save buff songs but some
friends of mine and I have a bet. We are trying to find out what the least
amount of damage one can take from the Lava in Sol B is per tick.

You see I was in the Priest room with my wizard camping with some friend
and wouldn't ya know I was bored. Hay I am a gnome I get bored easily.
Anyway, I decided to practice my Conjuration skill by summoning eyes of
zomm and tossing them into the lava so they would die a quick death and I
could summon another.
Well to my supprise an Eye of Zomm dosen't take lava damage. Kinda neet
but not really any practical purpse that I can find except maybe agroing a
mob on the far side of lava and creating a uber train. But I digress
again. So I started summoning eyes and looking around the lava.
Under the king room, yes under the lava. There is a tunnel. On the far
side of the tunnel you can resurface into a small room. I could see one
Greater Kobold in the room, but I couldn't get my eye out of the lava and
on to the land. Not sure how the GK would of gotten to me if it did agro
because I couldn't see any other way out of the room.
So now as a pet project I am trying to find out if this is some dorkey
placeholder for something because from what I can tell there is no reason
to have a GK spawn in a dead end room that can only be accessed via an
under the lava tunnel.
So now I want to go down there. All my friends say I won't survive the
lava damage let alone the GK on the far side.
I am just curious if a High Level Bard with full Fire Resist buffs steps
into lava playing the right songs, how much damage per tick will they take?
