Hail Fellow Wizardy Players,
Just this afternoon i was playing and accidently pulled my first wizardy8 train,i was in the wilderness trying to get to arnika when i walked up on a group of men and decided to back up right smack into another..cool i think il just go left and right smack into another...found a crevice in a mountain and took my stand there.What i faced was the following: 2 higardi cutpurses 3 " roustabouts 3 " highwaymen 7 " highwaymen 3 " highwaymen 6 " highwaymen totalling 24 monsters on 6 lowlevels but hey i lived,got 16,000 some xps. and i got to say my bard really shined with those pipes of piercing.Just this this might lead to an interesting topic. Oh by the way does anyone know how to take a screenshot in the game i looked in the options menu and the manual but couldnt find nothing on the subject. qwert |
Ack, Everquest d00d lingo is entering the RPG vernacular. :(

Nice fight! Those are the ones that last, and last, and...
To take a screenshot just hit your keyboard's Print Screen key. The shot will be saved to your Wizardry 8 main folder. The Screenshots are labeled Wiz800000.JPG, Wiz800001.JPG, etc. You can also launch a graphics editor program (before or after taking the screenshot) and simply paste the in-memory shot directly. |
Thanks for the reply xignal i wanted a screen shot of that fight oh well,yeah i played some everquest didnt care to much for it but picked up some of the lingo.

LOL! so to me, they count. but officially they might not. |
Mine was in Bayjin, right when I came out of the water.
There's a Standard (locked in) fight that's pretty brutal with: 1 Rynjin Battlelord (or something like that) 2 Rynjin Priests (something like that- not as tough as the Battlelord) 6 Rynjin Scavengers (Small guys... they would've been easy (only 150 hp), but they kept Psi-blasting/Ego whipping me) During that fight, 5 Stone Crabs decided that they weren't doing anything, and came over and joined in. The last Stone Crab ran away a bit, so I chased him, and in chasing him, I stirred up 4 Water Fairies (who were, luckily, pretty easy). So after those 3 groups, I say, hey, that hut looks like a nice place to rest, walk over, open the door, and OOPS, SOMEBODY'S HOME!!! It was just a Rynjin Something or other and his 2 brothers, and I was already at melee range, so I was able to kill them without losing anyone. But if I had been a couple of more steps away, I would've been meat! Luckily, 1 4M 1337 VV4RR10R 5uPr3m3!!!! |
In the Rattkin Tree :
4 Rattkin Snipers 4 Rattkin Rogues 6 Rattkin Goons 9 Wasps 5 Sprites and I WON! I backed into the doorway by breeders around the corner so the snipers and sprites couldnt nail me, and then took like 2 at a time coming in the door while fireball/iceball 'ing in the doorway to hit the creatures behind. Took a LONG time [img]smile.gif[/img] c. 120,000 EXP or ( where I died miserably ) 1 Sorceress Queen 1 Death Lord 1 Death Lord 3 Cultists 3 Cultists 1 Minor Earth Elemental 1 Minor Earth Elemental 1 Earth Elemental 1 Earth Elemental 1 Fire Elemental 1 Fire Elemental not really a train, but a BIG one [img]smile.gif[/img] |
My biggest train so far (and the term is new to me..at least for rpg's ;) , but it suits).
I only really just started the game. In lower monastary, after triggering trap door and being unceremoniusly dumped down a level, all party members level 3-4. 1st, 10 seekers in front, 3 noxious slimes to the rear. Just as I put them down and start looking for a place to rest, 12 wolf spiders. Get through them, but by now I'm out of magic, out of potions and a couple of peeps hurting bad on hp's. All I'm thinking is safety and rest, try to make it to the cell, 4 more slimes. I think, ok, I can handle this, my Ranger tells me they're Adamantine slimes..100+ hp's each...and damn hard to hit. Yikes! By the time it was over, 2 party members dead(bless the goddess for resurrection powder!), 2 unconsious, and 12 hp's between the other two. I actually muttered to my screen for a minute "I'm safe now, I'm safe now" BUT, I DIDN'T HAVE TO RELOAD! |
I was actually thinking of starting the same topic because of the same reason. I actually wrote everything down too [img]smile.gif[/img]
3 Crimson Poppies 9 Forest Mites 9 Juggernauts 1 Rank Weed 4 Poison Seekers 2 Twilight Bats 6 Shreiker Bats For a total of 46 992 xp! Keep in mind that I am running a 4 character party consisting of a fighter, cleric, rogue, and a mage all about 9th level. I am also happy to report that not one of my characters died....mostly because I was able to get myself into a crevice where only 2 could face me at a time. And this wasn't even my toughest fight....it was actually when I faced 5 Wood Fairies all level 15. They always get first strike and cast spells like crazy. I think I had to reload about 5 times because I kept getting my butt royally kicked. Oh, and I did have another that might have been a little tougher..... 6 Higardy with 100 hps and 3 sorceress'. I could barely see them let alone cast any usefull spells against them because of their position. And of course all 3 had to cast summon elemental which didn't make me a happy man. I don't think I will ever head back to the monestary again! |

DONT POINT THAT THING AT ME! [img]smile.gif[/img] Just got into this... new area so not sure on names but... 1 Rynjin Leader 3 Rynjin Thralls 3 Rynjin Empaths - then joining in 6 Rynjin Scouts - then 4 Flying Snakes 9 Something Crabs ... JEEZ! I got lucky and KO'ed the Leader early on, then backed into a hut, called up a Greater Fire Elemental ( first time I saw Greater ), and spammed area damage while my bard played the Heal All Horn [img]smile.gif[/img] |
