You can definetly swarm Niefel Jarls with skeletons. That is probably their greatest weakness, since they have a very high base encumbrance. They need 8 reinvigoration to avoid passing out over time when fighting lifeless troops, and this is very hard to come by. (Boots of the messsenger, rainbow armour, girdle of might will cover it.)

Thanks for digging up that great old thread by Cherry. I've added a direct link to it on my site's links page so that I and others won't lose it again. As I find other useful archived threads I'll add more links on my site. Suggestions are always welcome, BTW.

No you did not want to figure that not out at all bad idea

Sorry if Im breaking topic somewhat but someone mentioned soul vortex and a possible tactic struck me....maybe already mentioned in another thread, but....

Lif drain auras I have always put in my mind as purely offensive.... but it strikes me that if you slapped some fat creatures with lotsa HP on guard with your mage, he will reinvigorate off them and in all likelyhood you wont whack the creatures during the battle. makes bone armour look a touch tastier. I will have to test.

I wouldn't use the Gate Cleaver in every situation, but if all you need is high damage (Sphinx, Iron Dragons, Monolith, Dude with Monolith Armor etc. high prot /low def critters) it seems to be the choice. I have never tested it in MP, though...

An earth 6 blessing is 3 reinvigoration, earth 10 is 5. This isn't enough to cover their encumbrance without additional items.
