With vitality close to 300 and poison resist 50+ (I carry "resist gear") my 20th Survivor was able to melee his way through the spider lair, his health dropping fast enough to need Restoration spell now and then, but I definately could tell the resists were working. I had the skill that stops 80 damage from "spells" and that seemed to ablate the poison damage too.
At level 15ish with around 20 poison resist, and no Spell Shield, those spiders individually were a LOT more annoying. The spider lair was a death trap. I had less Vit too, that might have been it.
Well done Larian. You made me feel like my character had made one step on the way to becoming heroic <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" />
p.s. Thanks Kiya for your continual help on this forum. Your dark-elf-self looks a little green. Spending too much time around poison barrels? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
