If you drink and fight, you're a bloody idiot


Recommended Posts

I just experienced something slightly surreal in Avernum 3. My level 1 party was touring Silvar, and happened to intimidate that Empire Dervish in the inn. As a result, we enter combat mode (This is on torment, by the way).

 

Then the Dervish does the most odd thing. He picks up a bottle of wine. I then hear that 'gush' sound associated with a character drinking a potion. He moves to attack, swings... and misses. His chance to hit is 5%. And when he does strike, the damage sucks.

 

Hilarious.

 

I wonder if this could be used as some sort of strategy against single difficult opponents? Drop wine on the ground, then run away!

I said for major battles.

I think the major battles are (though not all are battles):

 

Alien Slime

Escape from the roach pit.

Troglodite Mage Dude (forgot his name) and King

Giant Leader (or is there one? I don't remember)

Fight inside that part where you smash that blue crystal thing.

Golem Lead Mind Crystal

Rentar Ihrno.

 

That is 7. I think you can find 7 things of Alcohol and Poison in the game. Or can you? I'm too tired to think...
