Damage in Astral Space

So I have some PCs that more than likely will be having to enter Astral Space in order to combat a Horror. To that end, I know that they will take damage while in Astral Space. However this brings up a problem;

"Second, astral corruption causes damage to those exposed to it. Each minute that a character is in astral space, he suffers damage using the step number shown on the Astral Damage Table. Mystic Armor protects against this damage." (Pg. 8 of the Gamemaster's Companion, 3rd paragraph under the heading "Travel in Astral Space")

The problem is... where is the Astral Damage Table to be found? I have looked in all of my books and I can not find it. Is this an errata? If so, it is not in the errata on this site.

I dearly would love to have this table so I can make sure that the precautions the party is taking actually matter.

I await any and all assistance.

Thank you.

Yes, this needs an Errata. It seems this table wasn't included when the old "brick" Gamemaster's Guide (ED Classic) was split into the two 3rd edition books.

Looking in my Classic book, this table appears on the same page as the text you reference:

Astral Damage Table
Region Type - Damage Per Minute (Mystic Armor protects)
Safe -NA
Open - Step 4
Tainted - Step 8
Corrupt - Step 12



Hope that helps!
