You can only fall so far before SF is rendered useless. Perhaps you can do it with a higher SF skill when the level cap is increased, it depends how it scales with every point added in the skill. <div></div>

<DIV>It seems about 50/50 with 250 safefall when you jump doiwn the mines.  Safe fall helps you mitigate damage on falls you fail, and take no damage when you succeed.  The fall is just far enough that even if you mitigate the damage on a fall you still are going to die 80% of the time.  There were some areas I was able to fall and take damage and live.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Got in about 40-50 jumps total.</DIV>
