It is because the daystar has the option of destroying the undead, so the programmers did instead of making a insta-kill feature, they just added 1000 points of damage to the daystar spell.

So when you destroy a undead with the daystar spell you'll see a damage of 1000+

When the Daystar is equipped, your 'pouch' should be a bright silver. Click on the pouch and you will see a sunburst. If you use this special ability, all undead must save vs death or be destroyed (at a penalty I think)....and this is where you get your 1000+ damage. Of course even if they make their save, the burst does a LOT of damage to undead....and MR and spell protections don't seem to be able to stop it....which makes it the *perfect* Lichkiller.

1000+ damage should kill even Vampires in their gasseous forms.

Nope, gaseous forms are pretty much immune to everything.

I always use daystar to immediately kill the lich that guards it. I did it with my solo bard and it was the first thing I did after the dungeon and circus. So it is easy to kill lich's with it :cool:

Undead are immune to death spells, the 1000+ damage is just a way to get around that. :)
