Removing the SSA (Stone Skin Amulet) on the last fire field in POI (Pits of Inferno) negates the damage because the amulet has an internal delay before being consumed.

How Does It Work?

1. SSA absorbs damage from any source up to a certain limit before breaking.

2. When you step on the last Fire Field, the SSA is still active, but if you remove it at the right moment, it doesn’t get consumed.

3. The game does not reapply the damage after the SSA is removed, so you don’t take the final hit.

Why Does This Happen?

• The game processes damage based on the equipment you have at the moment of the hit.

• SSA has a short protection delay before breaking.

• If you remove it before this delay ends, the damage is negated instead of being transferred to your HP.

This technique is used to save SSA when crossing the Fire Fields in POI, ensuring that it doesn’t break unnecessarily.

Tip: Practice your timing to remove it at the right moment and avoid the final damage!
