Default Re: How do I kill a water queen?


At first it only had 20 MG resistance... not very difficult with the rune sceptre, eye void and/or spell focus items. The eye void and spell focus can be cheaply passed around to multiple mages for either soul slay, enslave mind, charm, etc., . If I see resistance of only 20 on a SC... I'm thinking Capture and Control it's mine... usually via charm.
.
Later its MG resistance was increased with the suit of armor yet this made it really slow. This armor is more ideal for mounted commanders. If I owned the Queen I would not have her traveling solo, she would be with a team of mage supporters and scout decoys.

With her being so slow on the battlefield the idea of stealing control would still be viable in my book. The fire elementals was a good way to take her out. I hope you brought some low level air mages to pickup some of those items.

You know what, the water queen was alive for so long with that medusa shield. I didn't want to take any risk of routing or other unseen misfortune so I only teleported in a single mage. Also, I was doing other things and I didn't have available another mage with teleport. However, when I teleported him in to kill the earth king with the same technique, I DID teleport in a second mage to pickup items. Guess what? He got nothing from the king. He did have a unique item on him too, and was fully equipped. That was lame. Maybe the chance of picking up an item increases if you are NEAR the enemy units.

Well, to let you know, the enemy has resummoned the queen and now has a small army with her. It doesn't matter though, my allie has the medusa shield on a unit that is more powerful than the water queen could ever be. lol I'll post a screenshot soon. Hint: It has about 80 regeneration and quickness.
