# Talk:Fire resistance
Itsn't it that a character die if enter Gehennom w/o fire resistance? --AtH 00:34, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

No. Old versions of NetHack had Hell instead of Gehennom, and entering Hell without fire resistance (or losing fire resistance while in Hell) was instant death. But in recent versions, and in the current version, entering Gehennom without fire resistance is not instant death. --Erica 04:07, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
