Hello players of Dark Heresy, I am a new player and about to run my first game tomorrow!

I am a bit confused on the Shock Table and Mental Trauma, I see the list goes above 170+ in degrees of failure! How on Earth does one reach this? You'd have to have like -80 on your WP to get this, right? Or am I missing a very small detail that makes me look like an idiot?

Please answer, and thank you!

P.S. When rolling for Shock and Trauma, you test your WP, right?

When you fail a fear test, you roll 1d100 on the Shock table, adding +10 to your d100 roll for every degree of failure on the Fear test. The same applies to failing a test to resist gaining Mental Trauma.

Oh, now that makes sense! Thanks, that's been bugging me ever since I read that piece.
