Thread: Radioactive ore and taking dmg
I found a little patch of ore just now and tried to sample it. In the past, Ive taken a little dmg from this, but nothing serious.
This patch instantly incapped me on the first sample and gave me wounds on all stats of almost 95% of my bars. I had to go back to town to heal up, as I couldn even sample anymore, must less attempt it again.
My question is, did I take so much dmg because the ore was rich in energy? Or was this a fluke of some type? Im scared to try again, but tomorrow I think Ill drop a harvester on it a few mins just to see what it pulls up. Thanks for any input.
I sample radioactives every now and then, and the most I've ever taken was 20% black into all three pools, and an insta-incap (mind). I haven't tried it since last patch though...sounds fun.
I never actually *need* any Radioactives, but frankly, nothing quite beatsthe sheer exhillaration of thrid-degree radiation poisoning, and I find myself strangely turned on by massive radioactive shock. I might be addicted.
Excuse me, I'm just going for a lie-down in a cold dark room...
