Garrulous Glaahk Rionep Ecnirp Etlevs Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I'm a Guardian playing Normal, so I'll survive one way or another. That said, if I start raising a team of vlish as soon as I reasonably can, will they level enough throughout the game to be more valuable than the fewer number of glaahks or eyebeasts I might have eventually created? If you support the decision to go full Vlish, should I create as many as I possibly can? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Acky Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 How much essence do you have at the moment? Vlish take 15 essence points to make, and an extra 5 or so to control them in combat, which you'll really want them to do to keep them from doing stupid things. At that point in G2, I rarely have enough for more then 2 or maybe 3 Vlish if I want any essence saved for healing spells, which you'll want. You can hold off from increasing their stats, save two points in Intelligence. That said, yes, Vlish are quite good, and if you know how to handle a party with them well, you can manage. If you really want to see Vlish kick arse, play G3 with a Shaper and a horde of Terror/Regular Vlish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Slariton Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Vlish are not quite as overpowered in G2 as in G3. They are still good, but they aren't head and shoulders better than other creations in that game. With a Guardian in G2, though, putting ALL your points into Parry is really the way to go.

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Well, it does get a bit silly eventually, when you can be mobbed by Rotdhizons and riposte them all to death by just standing there. If the animation showed you being a spinning tornado of steel and death, it might be better, but with the limited G2 combat animations, it just makes the monsters look like extreme doofs, to the point where you can start to feel bad about taking advantage of them.

Never feel bad taking advantage of gameplay situations! This is how the developer wanted it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
