Dazed, Stunned and Confused... Countermeasures??? - Page 2

Redblueflare · 07-26-2001, 10:40 AM

Stun is a very annoying status. All high level mages seem to love symbol stun. The only ways I know of to cure it are to carry a permanent free action item, like the Arbanes Sword, or ring of free action. The spell free action does not work that well. (The stun overrides the free action, or vice versa.)

In my experience, over 75% of the time that I lose a battle, it is because of confusion/stun/fear/charm removing party members from my control. It would seem these abilities are a bit overpowered. Additionally it seems there is always a way around it (The enemy was using hold person (2nd lvl), so I started putting up minor globes of invuln, the enemy started using confusion (4th lvl), I started putting up globes of invuln, and the enemy started using Chaos (5th lvl), and if I use spell immunity to that, they just use symbol: Fear or power word: Stun...)
However, the Contingency: Dispel Magic sounds like a really good idea. Thanks for the tip.

Umberhulks are *very* susceptible to cloudkill...

No, he just knows how to use Infinity Engine Editor Pro. You can pick it up from www.teambg.com. It will allow you to edit and create items, among other things.
