There are a few ways to kill aran without retalliation.
( the shadow thief with the sword is famous by now .. but i keep forgetting his name
)
1. First, feeblemind Aran Linvail ( and maybe the others too ) while he's still unhostile. This way you can kill him without repercussion.
2. I believe its possible to cast PfMW first .. ( so you dont get killed right away ) and then Time-stop, followed by Shapeshift: Mind flayer (lvl 9 ).
Now proceed with eating out the poor shadow thief's brain.
However, I believe that a new version will just keep spawning untill you die that way [img]tongue.gif[/img]
P.s. The sword that deals 1000 damage of all elements, +1000 undefined damage,
Has the range of a short-bow i believe, and an attack rate of 10 ? ( IIRC ),
is the Killsword, CLUAConsole:CreateItem("KILLSW01").
This however, is not the sword our dear thief uses .. he uses some different modified sword .. forgot which one, but it's been discussed in previous posts.
