More personalized questions: (PURE OPINION)

1. What is the commander that you've summoned the most? (From all your games with all nations)(ALL YOUR GAMES)(Overall)

2. What is the equipment that you've forged the most?(From all your games with all nations)(ALL YOUR GAMES)(0verall)

3. What is the global ritual that you've cast the most?(From all your games with all nations)(ALL YOUR GAMES)(Overall)

4. What is the most commonly scripted spell that you've used for your commanders?(From all your games with all nations)(ALL YOUR GAMES)

--------------------------------------------------------------

(From all your games with all nations)(ALL YOUR GAMES)
I write this because I know someone will say: "Ohh, but it depends on the nation Im using" I know that, however what I am asking for is the OVERAL. Hypothericly adding the number of times you've done it from all the games with all the factions.

3. Owl Quills, lightless lanterns, skull mentors. All boosters do as well. Champion skull can make a very dubious claim to as well. Lanterns are the most efficient by far.

4. Nakedness and not going to the worthless thing.

5. Possibly well of misery since it's likely the best one you can get up without triggering massive player-hate. Mother Oak as a low-research alternative.

6. One of the treelords has B, I believe Lamia Queens do as well, as do tartarians. Scout hunting is probably the most efficient way to do it though.

7. Depends what you're fighting. Frost brand + marble armor is a good cheap way to start.

1a. Tarts. Specifically the lightning clops
2a. antimagic amulet
3a. Well of Misery?
4a. Returning, enslave mind or soul slay most likely. Frozen heart/lightning bolt/thunderstrike are also up there.

1. Earth Attack; Vengeance of the Dead; some Blood assassin rituals (Horror summons of some sort). Which is best depends, VotD can be a cheap shot since it can create so many dead that the victim can't kill them all and auto-dies. I think all around Earth Attack is really good.

2. I don't know. I didn't think there was a seducer attack summon.

3. Owl Quill; Skull Mentor; Lightless Lantern. Lightless Lantern is considered the best partially due to that it uses fire gems which are not considered as useful all-around as other gem types.

4. I wouldn't really care about Battle Arena. Also, ``the best'' is completely dependent on situation. However, there are a few high priorities for all around thugging:
* Amulet of Antimagic
* Luck Pendent (or Silver Coin or Faithful)
* Boots of Flying; Boots of Quickness; Boots of the Messanger
* Marble Armor or (Black Steel Full Plate for undead); Rainbow Armor; Chainmail of Displacement; Bone Armor
* Dragon Helm; Horned Helm; Horror Helm; Spirit Helm; Wraith Crown; Starshine Skullcap (for maximal MR)
* Charcoal Shield; Vine Shield; sometimes Eye Shield
* Fire/Frost Brand; Demon Whip (A cheaper fire gems only Fire Brand without the moral boost)

for non-caster undead, I also like Lycanthrope Amulet

5. What do you consider to be the best clothing to wear when leave your house (if any)?

6. Summon Treelord

7. What is the best and most efficient universal way to play the piano?



Lastly, your asking the wrong questions; there is no best. There's only clever nasty tricks.

Agree with micah almost to the T.

5. Goh
6. Is right. Most efficient is whatever you have the gems for.
7. Add a slave collar to the mix.

2a. Dwarf hammer, earth boots, skull caps, RoS, RoW, AMR, Amulets of luck.

4. Returning. Summon earth power. Communion slave. Flame arrows. Orb lightning.

5. The best clothing to wear is jeans and a shirt. Since I live in a hot place that is wat I usually wear. =D

7. I dont play the piano.

About askin the wrong questions maybe you are right. What I mean when asking "best" is your opinion of best.

[Dragar]

3. As above, lightless lanterns tend to be best as owl quills don’t give enough and death gems have many better uses

5. Mother Oak

7. marble armour, frost blade, vine shield.

1. Golems

2. Lightless lantern in bulk, for actual combat use Shroud of the Battle Saint

3. Mother Oak

4. Bless. Summon Earthpower.

Why a slave collar?

Clams, I think.

Slave collar feebleminds them, removing both.

Slave collar can not be found or the chance to find it is extremely low.
If it could be found it would be an extremely useful item for the price. Equipping ten scouts with two collars each and attacking a province full of mages could be devastating if it worked. But it doesn't. I just wonder why you like to post things like this without even testing.
