Is it possible to pick-pocket the greater doppleganger that you free in the first level? I tried, but it failed, and I was forced to THRASH HIM INTO THE GROUND. Woohoo indeed...anyway, is there a way?

Gnoman · 05-22-2003, 12:32 PM

Oh yeah...also, in Irenicus' dungeon, attack the jailkeep golem for an easy 5000 X-points...

...he doesn't fight back is why...even easier than the golems in Nalia's Keep...anyone got a tip for the Iron Golem, though? I just left him to stew, but shooting obviously has no effect, and his magical resistance is too damn high...and no, I don't have the spell which lowers/raises guys to 20%.
It's just I can't go near him without getting poisoned and smooshed.

There is nothing to pickpocket from him anyway, but yes, it is possible. You will need a decent Pick Pockets score though( about 75%).

On a side note, you can compile all your questions into one thread instead of creating a new thread for each question. This is starting to borderline on spamming.

I think yes but you must have high pick-pocket value

Yes..be sure to read the Rules&Regulations Thread

Iron Golems require +3 enchanted weapons in order to be hurt.

A little tip, they cannot walk through doorways.

A tip for the bunch of iron golems/clay golems in Nalia's keep: just use Sanctuary/Invisibility and walk right pass them!

Melf's Minute Meteors. The fire damage gets through whenever you hit - and it doesn't seem to be much affected by resistance. (Bug??) The Meteors do very little damage per hit, so you can count on re-casting it a few times.

MMM has countless other uses from trollkilling to disrupting enemy spells. That little bit of fire damage goes a long way.

a suprisingly powerful spell indeed! even in the latter stages of the game(timestop + MMM comes to mind).

Yes becuase of Auto-Hit in Time Stop...but we also have Energy Blades(ToB HLA)...
