Ambrosia Software Web Board: Lich Building? - Ambrosia Software Web Board

What I ment by "melee" is that you have to be standing right next to the enemy to use Death Strike. As I said before, that is it's only downside. (Though it is a rather big one)

Yeah, you both got to me.

And you're right, the grimore will do it. Sorry. My bad.

Anyways,
Does anyone know for sure what is inside of the second undead stronghold?
What is it? Is it powerful?

Once you get past the daemons, inside the last inner room, there are two golems, a lich, a blue crystal ball, and a throne. But the lich stands there and does nothing. When you attack it, it just starts walking around. The common belief is that it is Tavara and that he has turned himself into a lich.

But if it's Tavara you would think that he would be a little more powerful...

Whatever, if you kill one of the daemons in there and then you leave, will the daemon still
be gone when you come back?

Powerful? Well, he's a little old, now isn't he?

Yeah, I busted in there, killed the golems and Tavara.

Dang, golems being the weakest monster in the game, I am dissapointed in
Tavara. You would think that a guy who could destroy a city would do better than a couple of golems as his personal bodyguards.

Then when I got back from the stronghold I left my crystal balls on the counter in my room and they dissapeared.

Yeah, you can't put things on counters. Just in drawers and crates, etc. The maid will clean them away if you leave them viewable. Or.... Thieves.

I've found that if you can figure it out, it isn't hard to write AI scripts that are better than the original ones...I actually wrote some for some of the characters (available at my website below...I thought I'd submitted to the addons page but I guess it never made it...plus I've kind of forgotten about this whole thing). Granted it's still not as good as using your method for complete control, but it does make your party characters a little less annoying when you're not micromanaging them.

Also, on another note, I'm trying to figure out why people like Death Strike so much. I guess I was never into getting my magic stats up, so I would always run out of mana. I just concentrated on getting ridiculously powerful weapons (*cough*swordofheroes*cough*) and saving my magic for healing purposes.

A couple other things -- I could also never get the strange helmets (the ones that look like a full helmet w/o the red thing on top, right?) to protect me against Demons' or Lichs' spells (or whatever specific thing they were supposed to protect me against). I swear everyone in my party was wearing them.

And lastly, I thought that spear-wielding ability was the same thing as sword ability, if I remember correctly. I could be wrong, but that's what I thought.

About Death Strike, it's best to use it when you have both Mages Friend and Healing Potions handy. (Healing are made from sulfer and are white; Mages Friend are made of Obsidian and are pitch black. Both Sulfer and Obsidian can be found in the lands End Volcano)

In any case, Death Strike is most useful when you are fighting a few powerful monsters. My best charecter has taken many liches and demons with that ability. It's also better if you can take the monster without the spell.

As far as the Strange Helmits, they don't protect you completely, but they do help. What spells effect your party members? I don't think they protect from parlyzation. Just Confusion and Fear.

Really, I have been paralyzed, confused, and sacred while wearing the helmet.

I love death strike, but it is a bad idea to rely on it because if you hit the preform button, and then the moster moves out of reach, you just wasted a lot of mana.

Well I'm pretty sure the helmits don't make you immune, but they increase your resistance. Death Strike is great, but as I said before, it's better not to rely on it conpletely.

In response to my earlier question I'd like to say the no, the Mystic Helmit doesn't protect like the strange helmits do.

What the **** is the mystic helmet?

Where is?

I want!!!!!

What Slayer's Guide says about the Mystic helmet and where to get it.

Out of curiousity, do you have the mystic spear or the mystic armor?

Yes, I have both.

I don't use the mystic spear much, because I have the heroes sword.

I use the armor though, love it.

I have all the mystic stuff and the Sword of Heroes. I don't use the spear much, because it gets stuck to stuff.

Gets stuck to stuff?

I have no idea what you are talking about.
Do you mean, you throw it and then need to go get it?

Quote

Yeah!!!!!

That's exactly what I mean.

Yeah, I have the same problem, I always forget to go get it, so I lose it.

My additude is that if it's in the game, it's there to use. There's no way to avoid it getting stuck.

What do you mean stuck!
Why don't you go pick it up??!!
