and why should I be concerned?
In other words, is that a particular kind of attack or damage?
Is that affecting any kind of player or only some classes/levels?
Why do I feel like it’s a kind of ’nasty’ thing?
How can I protect myself?
Thanks for answering!

- Shock eq is specific to the caster who uses the “raise dead” spell.
The more +shock eq the caster wears, along with the song “rina cruinne” by a bard, the less chance of the player being shocked on raise attempt.
When if the CON of the dead player is at 18, the WIS of the raiser is at 18, the percentage of shocking the body into death is less. As shock eq is added to this, the percentage of shocking is decreased.
I personally have +11 shock eq, 18 WIS in raise gear. A bard singing “rina cruinne” is suppose to be +5 I think. Unfortunately, even with this, the dead player at 18 CON, and a bard singing “rina cruinne” shocks do happen. Its just a roll of the dice.
I hope this helps.

+shock gear worn by the victim is also considered.
Thanks, that definitely made me understand what shock is.
