How do you fight the Niefel giants?

Now how effective any of this is? I'll probably be finding out, starting next to Niefelheim in Doom Chicken. None of the above is a tested strategy yet.

It would be great if you reported any successful strategies from this game.

Drain life is not resistable. But not fast nor easy enough to mass.

The problem with Doom Chicken is that I can't afford my Dai Oni... I'm a dirt poor Yomi...

Oh, Drain Life isn't resistable? Than script it amongst all the Raise Skeletons. It's not about the damage as much as the fatigue relief. Though I'll have to check out the damage and see whether its at all economical.

If you do it via standard of the damned, combined with boots of quickness, you get 2 drain lifes per combat round for only 10 fatigue.

Thats a real killer for both giants and SC's or in indeed anything else that is big, has lots of hps.

Wait... raise dead is fatigue 40? I thought it was 20!
Much is explained....

I'm not sure that is correct. The costs were raised in CB, check if you are playing with a mod.

Raise Dead costs less fatigue that Raise Sekeletons, at any rate. 40 sounds about right for Raise Skeletons, not Raise Dead.
