A6 - Beating the Ice Wraith

[Triumph]

What level might be recommended for the ice wraith under Patrick's Tower? Any particular strategies recommended for it?

 

Thanks.

Melee attacks by the ice wraith are less damaging than missle.

Have fighters take damage. Use priest for healing and repel spirit. Mages can use fire spells on it. Make sure it attacks the fighters and keep their HP up.

Not sure how long you should wait before killing it, or at which level you should do so.

If I were you though, I would constantly try to go back and try to kill it, since the spell reward is very nice. It helped me out a lot.

Thank you! That did the trick! It was doing 80 or 90 damage with it's ranged attack, but only 20 when I kept my mage-priests out of sight casting heal while my two dual-wielding melee fighter ran up and whacked it.

Oh, for anyone who is curious, I did this at level 11.

Yeah, when I first saw it, it shot at my "archer" nearly killing him -- but that was it basically -- my 2 tanks charged it; healed the archer, then hacked the critter up. 2 rounds -- poof. I have killed the ice wraith at 10th usually, but with high damage pole-arms,backed up by spells, it makes short order of the beastie.

You can do it by 7th level if you come here early.
