New Screenshots (28 Jan 2004), HoW End-Boss Spoiler

[Dundee Slaytern]

I meant to post these yesterday, but I was busy visiting relatives.

First of we have the lovely Remorhaz. Now... this was on HoF Mode and normally such a scene would have meant only one outcome. Reload. However, I came to discover a few things.

Remorhazs deal crushing and fire damage (100+ each on HoF Mode by the way ).

Stalkers are immuned to crushing and fire damage( ADD] When buffed by the War Chant of Sith).

Oh happy, happy, joy, joy. [img]tongue.gif[/img] My Fighter/Druid became the toast of the party, and everybody kissed his hairy toes as the Stalkers led while everybody else fire off missile weapons. At 42000 XP per Remorhaz, I was a very happy camper.

Later on, we encountered the Ice Sentry Guards and I became even happier. They dealt crushing damage too and were worth 58000 XP... ...

Did I mention that I like to cast Static Charge before I rest? Any hostile unfortunate enough to disturb the party gets fried from accumulated charges which are all released in one shot. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

The second set of screenshots show the power of extreme buffing. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Note that I was not using the game's best equipment yet. I can still get the AC even lower, but I choose a weaker armour (Vex something) for the immunity to cold, and a smaller shield for the Physical Damage Resistances (same goes for the amulet).

Oh, oh... and I can confirm that Chaotic Commands does grant Immunity to Hopelessness.

Dundee,

Chaotic commands... Chaotic commands... Chaotic commands... Gotta remember that one on B.I. Thanks!

Wow! Those Remorhaz are nasty enough on normal play. 100 + 100 damage per hit! Ouch!! Glad you found the cure for that screen shot; and my hat's off to you!

What's a party,
without a song?
Bards ROCK!
Party On!!

First off, we have a cheesy screenshot from The Trials of the Luremaster. As the screenshot implies,

Spectral Knights: NIL || Great Bear: Gazillion

Ah yes... Water Elemental + Bone Marrow Belt = Healing from Slashing Damage. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Back in HoW... I finally defeated Icasaracht on Heart of Fury Mode for the first time and on the first try!

WOOHOO!

Screenshots

1) Negotiation as always, was futile.

2) Feel the burn of the Bolts of Sekolah's Fire!

3) Summons sprout all the place while my Paladin casts Holy Smite in the thick of battle. I like this screenshot because of the colours.

4) I just found that Sahuagin's death pose hilarious.

5) Feel the burn of the Inferno Arrows!

Special ammunition sure does run out fast... especially when the enemy has over a thousand HP... ...

6) FALL! FALL!

7) Death by an unenchanted arrow.

So much for hording all the Bolts of Sekolah's Fire and Inferno Arrows. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
