Well, firstly i've decided that the most dangerous characters in the game are the shadow thieves who surround Aran Linvail.If anyone has ever failed to pickpocket him you would understand that they can kill you instantly,no matter how tough you are,-it just seems odd that they are so dangerous.
Next, -I cast simulacrum(from my custom sword),and then cast it again from the 'double',and i end up with someone who looks like Biff the understudy who only knows two spells!? whats the deal there?

In responce to your first question.
The shadow thieves are not particularly dangerous it is just the assassin Arkanis Gath who jumps from the shadows if your make any premature move against them. He has a rather unfair sword that deals thousands of damage and makes him a combat god.

Is it those shadow thieves guard or it is Arkanis Gath? I think the immortal version of Arkanis Gath will spawn as soon as anyone in the guild turns hostile, provided you are not working for Bodhi.
Interesting note on the simclacrum.....never try anything like that before. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...les/tongue.gif

Well well well ! Arkanis Gath eh? I'll have to keep a third eye out for him in future.
It seems he can spawn anywhere in the Guild building then. Theres a thief in the guild who tries to tempt you into overthrowing Aran,and then another(loyal)thief appears and suggests i help him kill the traitor,so i did ,and the guy turns on me!.....leaving me no choice but to kill him.Then ,i guess this Arkanis shows up and murders us all!

Arkanis Gath: Damage Taken 1548
Arkanis Gath: Damage Taken 2544
