Shouldn’t Mist Form stop or lessen fall damage?

Title says it really, why does a vampire in mist form have to suffer fall damage at all?
Heck...why does a vampire take fall damage at all? I thought they were based on Underworld Vamps?

AmoralOne✭✭✭✭Because you cant die? Cant speak for fall damage in PvE as I dont know, but for PvP imagine running from 30 people and then going mist form off a cliff, hitting the ground no dmg, getting out of mist form, and either a, watch the group following you die, or b, when they hit the ground at no health kill them.PC NA - EP's Greatest Support5 -

✭✭While I do agree that Mist Form should mitigate all fall damage, it does mitigate it by 75% which often makes a deadly fall survivable depending on the damage scaling via height (it's a life saver when running a Stage 4 vamp as tripping over rocks don't hurt as bad
). Just make sure you enter it as you fall. It also doesn't work from super high falls. Still gives me the automatic death. I've tried.

Of course...PVP taking point again and with a niche situation too, awesome.0 -

You're kidding, right ?
First Underworld movie heroine passes out while driving, ends up in a river and has to be rescued from Drowning or she dies.
Hollywood vampires are not any kind of Lore vampire.

She was SHOT!
Our vampires die from tripping over pebbles!
Explain what is awesome looking about that?
Just imagine a runway model who is like our vampires, if they have a bad trip up (you know you’ve seen the vids) the model would be ded!

✭✭✭✭✭I actually like the idea of 75% of falling damage being mitigated by mistform. Obviously fall damage shouldn't be absolute 0 since that's a bit ridiculous since you still have mass and can be hurt while in a mist. Also the only underworld comparisons I can make is vampirisim is a disease and of course the vampire lord form. Other than that they are 2 different things with their own lore and history.PC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK1 -

I could give you a less niche situation if you really need it. Say you are defending a keep. This happens alllllll the time as that is the 'main reason' people play in Cyro. Your group gets caught out and starts to wipe, or get out numbered and you have no line of site option on the stairs. So your group goes to the top and drop off in mist form. No fall dmg. Anyone that follows you would be around 5k after dropping off the top chasing your group. Now they wiped cause you were able to funnel them falling and being near dead and you win the fight you should have lost. Because why? Because lore I guess.
Orrr if you dont want to include all the people in that fight, your group wipes you are the last alive you mist form off the top take no dmg, now you are full health able to go up the stairs tank a little dmg on the way and get off the keep wall again taking no fall dmg, and then placing a camp to let your group, or randoms respawn.PC NA - EP's Greatest Support0 -

I don’t think people follow off the edge like that...I definitely press X to doubt on that one.
But I’ll give you the other situation...but since someone already said that Fall Damage is lessened by 75% with Mist Form anyway, shouldn’t that be something you of other PvPers should be calling to nerf?0 -
