Garrulous Glaahk Geezer Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 N/E corner @ N. Go through room with trap/gate and meet a series of ogres that manage to "knock" me out, three times now! My two partners on this quest are Nathalie and Jenell, and I'm playing Windows 7. Can't find any ref to this in the Forum....please help.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 If you are having too much trouble than consider using speed items to get extra attacks or combine wands and regular attacks. Summoned pets help too as a way to divert attacks from your party. Since you have Jenell, than summoning pets and then spine shielding the party works well since the ogres will take damage when they hit the pets.

Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Speaking of summoned pets, how do the shammy pets scale throughout the game and increasing the game difficulty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 As you put more points into the skills, you get better summons and all your summons improve. Drakes work quite well through the endgame. —Alorael, who wouldn't say they scale any more than any other spells. They certainly don't scale less, though.

Garrulous Glaahk Geezer Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thanks, Randomizer, I also turned down the difficulty to slow as well as kept well ahead of the water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Jackalope Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Also, windows 7 might be why you're always loosing. Try getting a mac and see if it solves the problem. /sarcasm To answer the question about pet, their damage doesn't scale really well (hint: it doesn't. At all.) but their survivability does. On my first playthrough I used the wolf (skill level = 7 +that other skills that boost her up) as a meatshield. One thing I hate about the pet system is that any PC in your party can have only one pet active at a time. No (wolf + salamander + rat + arachnid)x4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasoned Roamer Gerry Quinn Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yes, I've noticed that even a level 1 salamandar has quite a lot of health compared to a wolf or hellhound. Playing with Shadowwalker + Nathalie + Jenell on Hard, just completed Titan Keep, and the salamander stood up well to the titan attacks. Thus far the game has not been difficult - I have used very few consumables (except maybe 10-20 health potions and 10 speed potions) and almost none of the better ones. Silly, I know, I have barely brought myself to sell off even lightning scrolls! Used a resurrection scroll for the first time here and it almost seemed a cheat - full health restore, apparently full ability restore! It would still be a good scroll if it did a lot less...

Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Interesting. Was premeditating a solo shaman and was thinking if I should go with the evocations or the conjurations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
