That belt ogre is a real bastard if you don't know what you're doing. Fortunately, I do. I take him on my own, straight after Gorion's speech. I drink a potion of speed, sling a bow over my shoulder, and off I go. He's really not hard at all - plus, when you're first level, those 270 experience points are more than welcome, especially when you're in a hurry to advance to be able to survive more than one wolf bite. I remember once I tried to kill him with a solo mage, back when I was a novice; now that was a laugh. Foolus Maximus lasted about three and a half seconds. The last thing he ever heard was "Me crush you to-" and never even learned of his gooey demise before it actually happened. It was a beautiful service, so I couldn't complain, but this was sorely outweighed by the annoyance of restarting. Who'd be a newbie, eh?
