I haven't tried killing them... you'd have to do it with spells, since you can't get close enough to them for melee. Perhaps someone else has...

They can't die -- though you can, with Lavawalk, get close enough for melee.

That's how you get to the secret room behind them ...

i just run up there without taking in too much damage. the secret room dosnt have much in it.. just the too silent guys.

Well, duplication is hereby tested and proven valid on the patched version. Short summary:

Drop an item in the armory, and you can buy it back. Drop it again, there are now two of them. Drop a third time, and there are three. Every time you drop, there is one more than the last time. By the end of raising everyone up, I was buying 12 ankhs at a time. What a way to wipe out your gold stash... :D

I didn't check to see what happens if you leave and come back -- IOW, whether the drop process starts over, or it continues where it left off. I may try that tonight, if we get back.

No other real game news. We're about to enter the stout mines, and can't seem to find the werewolf. :(

It resets when you leave the store, though you can go in and out of the guild section, train, upgrade, &tc. without resetting the dupes.

is it possible for the mavin to snap?

Hmmm... can't say as I've seen that. There are better swords than the mavin, so I usually carry it around until I need it. :D

It is not possible. It has a toughness of 100%.

what swords are better than the mavin?

Personally, I prefer the Nightblade over all the swords. I also like a well-enchanted Wizard's Dagger, but that's not really a sword, is it? :D
