hello all, Im sorry but this post is rather Long.
An incident happened today which to me doesn't make sense.
My Character, who is a 51st circle barb, was setting in an Inn in Dragonrealms with a cleric friend of mine while the cleric friend was trying to disarm a box. she got sprayed my deadly acid from said box.
the only thing it did to her was give her cuts and bruises on her neck.
i told her that if that happen to me I would get a massive bleeder, she didn't believe me. so I tested it.
Sure enough, i got sprayed in the chest, waited to see what would happen. yep I got a Massive chest bleeder.

Now she has 31 disc and 23 stam. I have 31 disc and 30 stam. she's slightly lower in circle than I am.
at this point we decided to assist and I was told by the gamehost to come here for an answer. Because he could not give me one.

can someone Please tell me what the difference is?
Thank you
from a Curious barb

You'd have to repeat the test several times to ensure that random factors were not to blame. Also pertinent would be reflex and bonuses and balance and things, I'd expect.

this is something that i've noticed for some time now, anytime I get a acid spray I but the box away and head for a empath because i will get a massive bleeder. and herbs don't always work fast enought.

Just today was the first time Id been with anyone to test it. the person i was with has been a friend of mine for a long time In game, and she was as suprised by it. she said she never gets a bleeder from acid.
Im not sure if it's stat related or something else.

Relevant skills? Disarm, perception
Types of boxes? An acid trap from an adan'f mage is gonna hurt more than from a goblin. There are quite a few levels of 'deadly' acid. How long did it stay deadly on her?
How often does it happen? If one single box hurt you alot more than one single box hurt her, then the boxes had different difficulty and trap strength, or you may have gotten a bad roll or she may have gotten a good roll and avoided part of the acid. We know that you can some of the crossbow bolts coming from a bolt trap, why wouldn't acid be similar?

The more detail you give the easier we can answer the question.
