My wife argees with you.

My record for afflictions is 9, sounds like you are on the way to beating it.

Cast Gift of Health. Your poor Golum will thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for replying. Yeah, I got the poor thing out of the front lines and gave it the Chalice. I also finally got Gift up. I'd been battling C'tis trying to dispel their Burden of Time. There were already 5 globals up and I cast Gift 2 times before making it in. Heck, I cast dispel 3 times before getting it to work. I had boosted with 15, then 30 and finally 90! astral gems before succeeding.

He's now down to one affliction, a never healing wound. I'm waiting for that to clear before sending him back in.


Ciao,
V'ger gone

I saw a pretender lich acquire 7 afflictions in one long fight in the arena (against a prophet that kept trying to banish it). It eventually won, but another prophet finished it easily in the next round...

So far, I've been using Golems, with Robe of Invulnerability, Charcoal Shield, Elixir of Life, Regen ring, trample boots and Elf Bane. (If anyone has suggestions on equipment, I'd be interested.)

Ring-> useless, regenration doesn't work on lifeless critters such as constructs

boots+axe-> when trampling you are not using your weapon, so it's not an optimum combo as you will only use the axe vs critters with equal or bigger size. Thus there might be better options for the hand slot, basically something that gives benefits every combat round, and not ocasionally.

hahaha! what an amazing story. That golem is definelty to die for.

Personally I'm still waiting for my own copy of the game. Should be here any day now.

Yes. Specifically, a main gauche. Or else a lucky sword... either one is good. And cheap. A long weapon like a spear (especially a poisoned one) or whip (length 5, with various effects) is good for repels, too.

A big Golem needs a big weapon. This kind of job calls for . . .

MIDGET MASHER!!!!

Heh-heh-heh!
