Will the boiler room kill me?

[humblehome]

Playing survival mode in Blackrock Prison. The Boiler Room has a sign outside saying that there is a risk of electrical shock. If I go inside, will I get killed? Or is it just like that maintenance shed in Broken Road where you just need to avoid electrical cables on the ground during the Aurora?

I haven't been inside there during an aurora in survival mode, but would imagine that there would probably be a way through without shocks, if you are careful. Then again there isn't in the dam, so maybe not. If there isn't an aurora you can't get shocked in survival mode.

In the game, so far, the only time electricity is flowing would be when there was an Aurora event active. Sparking broken cables and short-circuits would be generally pretty noticeable.

At any other time, it should be quite safe. Still be alert especially towards dusk and during the night.

Most players would probably tend to avoid such locations when the Aurora might become active.

There is in the dam though, just involves 3d thinking and ropes.
Blackrock in survival makes you take a long winding path, but you can cross it.

In the lower dam maybe, but I haven't found a way past that bit at the bottom of the stairs and find the timing too tricky so just treat there as impassable.
