Here is a post by Vladimir Panteleev a long-long time ago. It pretty
much speaks for itself :-)
To be able to descend the rift at all, you need to:
1) be at least exp level 18
2) have either Willpower>19 or Perception<6
3) have the climbing skill at 100
During your descent, 27 checks are made.
You pass a check if _either_ of these conditions are met (in this
order):
1) Random(200)<100 (50%)
2) Random(100)<Willpower
3) Random(1000)< Courage skill points
4) Random(4)=0 (25%)
If you fail all these checks, a counter is incremented. That counter
is
directly pro****tional to the health and inventory damage done.
You can approximate this counter by the messages generated:
Always You slip...
You fall...
x>5 ...for a long time...
x>10 ...a very long time...
x>18 ...almost an eternity...
Always *BLAMMMM!!!*
(or "Blam!" if you have the little weight corruption).
