A Vastness has 3 mind bLasts per turn, plus the strength steal. So it can incapacitate up to 30 enemies. Which is highly unlikely unless they are weak, and the battle would be over before it could finish off that many anyway. Of course, most fodder run away long before the Vastness can incap that many.

My best one is now up to Awe +6 as its heroic ability. Takes some serious enemies to even want to engage it ...

Does blood vengeance protect against instant kills like soul slay?

You mean will the magic effect kick in even after the Vastness has died? Or if the Vastness survives, and thus takes no "damage", per se? Good questions! Can someone from IW answer this?

My guess:

1 Soulslay cast
1.1 MR works - nothing happens
1.2 MR does not work
1.2.1 Blood vengeance works and caster dies
1.2.2 Blood vengeance does not work and vastness dies
