Spoiler....The last fight

[whacky]

Well my lvl 28th cavalier cant even touch bhaal's priestess even with casomyr +6 so any bright ideas, i hate to see the game end this way.

[Illumina Drathiran'ar]

She has Stoneskin cast on her. You should either find that Rod of Cancellation (if there is one.. my memory's shot for the day.. I just know that there's an item that casts Ruby Ray of Reversal) or just keep hacking away and wear it down. Or have someone cast Spellstrike. Who's in your party?

No one [img]tongue.gif[/img] Anyways i think i missed it because i didnt read the battle text carefully. Gotta remember to do that. Anyways can you tell me what benifit do i get by draining levels, i've got the soul reaver +5 . Now i feel like a real vamp.

The same disadvantages you'd get if you were lvl drained ...
A loss of experience, and thus a worse THAC0, less HP, less HLA's. less spells etc. etc. than normal.

Allmost every noteworthy boss in ToB is immuned to lvl drain by the way

Level drain can slowly kill any monster with a huge amount of HP.. Unfortunately, there are very few monsters in the legit game with so much HP that make this method practical. A friend figured this out when I got fed up with his hacked char and sent an Alu-Fiend with 9000 HP and five attacks per turn against his superman char.. She got level drained with his stupid Black Blade of Disaster and I had to go back to the drawing board.

Oh dear
I have a mate with a hacked char, CTR Q'd him (he didn't even play the game. As soon as he opened the box for the first time, out came SK and whoops, there goes a lvl 98 sorcerer who can cast 1000 spells per level, has c of -20, THAC0 of -40, staff of magi+5, stats ofd 25, etc.)so he didn't know anything about, say, Immy's belt.

After having ONLY played the game with a cheated char, thus taking all the fun out of it, he had the audacity to whine to me that the game was boring.
