I just came from windspear hills and defeating firkaag (chapter 3)(sneaky dragon going after my main character all the time.) and saved the girl. Im just playing for kicks with reloads, core difficulty BUT with spell50, tactics and all other mods that would make my life interesting.
Interesting it was indeed. Upon arriving on trademeet, this guy just shows up and demands my celestial fury! I know alot of you guys know him already. Of course this was my first time playing tactics and finishing it. So technically it was my first time meeting this guy. I am still in chapter 3 and havent faced bodhi as I am still finishing all my quest left and right. Now, thinking he is just one guy after all, I decided to test him to see how strong he really is. Ye gadz! he was wiping out my characters one by one with his stupid acid splash. It was stupid really on how chessy he really was when Crend cast an insect plague on him so every point of damage, there was a acid splash on crend. Suffice to say that crend died in a very painful acidic manner and yet even though dead, my enemy still fires melf arrows on his dead body. How bad/chessy is that? and even dispelling spells get acid splash. whoa!
What was so funny is that after several reloads of me dying all the time. I decided to try a new tactic. I am the hero of trademeet afterall. So plans was set in motion the minute he shows up, i rush out of his way while him making his pretty speech with haste spell cast upon us. Then, we distracted him with cannon fodder like the militia guards! [img]smile.gif[/img] . Suffice to say he was killing everyone in sight with his stupid cloudkill and stuff. Now with me? I am sitting in a corner buffing up. For some reason he always knows where I am, I decided to move in another area where other guards can help me. On the way, stupid guy cast cloudkill trying to kill me only to kill standby's, squirrels and such. Thank goodness though I got lucky in dispelling his cheessy tactics and with greater malison + held spell. I finally got thru his somehow limitless protection from magical weapons. He has a nice katana which i am using now though. Still.. This guy killed half of the local population in trademeet and all the militia guards/captains/wizards. Crazy!
I guess that is tactics for you eh?
