Default Re: Why don't DE use soul stones?

apparently humans souls dont have the strength of will (or something similar) and dissipate into the warp- since the warp is a sea of emotion both good and bad it could be considered both Heaven and Hell, so i'm not sure if the dissipation thing is good or not.

Dark Eldar dont have soulstones but instead consume a sentient creature's soul or life essence (fluff on the subject was never really explicit on which) to prolong their own life to unnatural lengths. By that method they hope to stave off death permanently if possible, also as Slaanesh is constantly 'gnawing' away at a DE's soul I'm not sure if enough of the Eldar's soul would actually be present to make a Soulstone useful.
