[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 4957926, member: 10784"] The Frenzied Berserker gets a class feature called "Deathless Frenzy" that seems awfully powerful on the face of things. The feature allows the FB to continuing fighting for the duration of his or her frenzy, even if dropped to -10 or lower hit points. [I][B]Deathless Frenzy(Ex):[/B] You scorn death and unconsciousness while in a frenzy. As long as your frenzy continues, you are not treated as disabled at 0 hit points, nor are you treated as dying at -1 to -9 hit points. [B]Even if reduced to -10 hit points or less, you continue to fight normally until your frenzy ends.[/B] At that point, the effects of your wounds apply normally if they have not been healed. This does not prevent death from massive damage or from spell effects such as slay living or disintegrate.[/I] Frenzy lasts for 9 to 11 rounds. So, if the FB is reduced to -35 hit points in round 2, it doesn't matter and he just keeps going and going like the energizer bunny until round 9 is completed, at which point he drops dead. Is this correct? So, he could take another 500+ points of damage over those next 7 rounds and still keep going? (And, yes, I know he could be killed by Disintegrate or Slay Living or similar) Second question - would a spell like Revivify be cast after the FB is initially dropped to below -10, or would it be okay to cast it after round 9 or 11 when the FB actually drops dead? Thanks [/QUOTE]
