    Important DRK info

    You cannot survive KB meteor in zombie mode.

    That is all.

    Pretty sure no tank immunity ability like Hallowed Ground or Holmgang save you from intentional 1-hit kill abilities like KB's meteor or other such boss abilities, that would potentially break fights. If you look at the ability description for that DRK ability as well as the corresponding PLD and WAR abilities, it says "most" damage, this is why.
    Those unfamiliar with tanks in this game, don't ever expect abilities like that to save you from intentional insta-kill abilities because they won't.

    i think if you have a certain HP you can naturally survive the meteor. i've seen WARs do it with >10khp, but they drop to maybe 1k after the meteor hits. either way, it's best to just park your butt behind a rock...

    I think meteor is hard-coded to do 9999 damage, which is supposed to be an insta-kill for the level that it was designed for we outgeared it so much that WARs were able to surpass that and potentially survive.

    I can confirm that as it happened to me when I was doing my tower weeklies...still a better idea to mitigate the damage in the first place however.

    It's not a 1-hit kill mechanic but rather a static really high damage move. Always does 9999 damage. Warriors above 10k can live through it.
