I wonder-why i have 2 liches in shadow lord's quest, if i was only level 11+-??
Is not that a bit too tough? I managed to kill them using cheese-taking their guard one by one and finishng them off with a nishruu. That was not-smart lich behaviour.
And the mages-they are stupid. For example-tanova was much harder without the mod, now i managed to kill her in 1 minute-she attacked me in melee. Needless to say that her end was bitter.

In my opinion this mod is out of balance.
Badly out of balance.
But tough so i will stick to it.

Any other opinions or pointings to the fact that i was Wrong? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Read the readme. Or atleast look at the components list... you give me a very strong impression that you have simply looked at "it makes the game harder", and told it to install every component. If you look through the readme, you will find out why there are two liches in the Temple Ruins...

My point is, that even if it is a lich, it is a STUPID lich.
No challenge at all. greater mummy was tougher, untill i run at the lava with her and turned her to a kebab.
That was tougher then killing this lich.
The only lich(and the only mage that i had problems with), was the lich in the asylum, he casted teleport field and brought me to him. i managed to kill him only after 4 tries and that only by relativly cheesy tactics. (look in the post -Aaargh! help needed).

The rest of the mages are stupid.

Web and double toxic cloud=dead mage.
Worked for every mage in the game, provided that he was not outside.
Maevar, tolgerias, etc...

i wonder if johny boy will be the same...
prpbably not. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Have you ever given Big Kangaax (improved) a visit? How about (improved) Shandalar? I'm sure you'll change your mind and find you had some trouble with these guys at least [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I will visit both of them relativly soon.
If the lich will teleport himself in side of the little chamber, in the twisted rune, then i know how to deal with him. Some traps (even if it is cheese), will kill him.

As for kagaxx, every demilich is a pain in the butt, and he was tough enough in modeless SoA (at least for me), so i will not see any difference, except that i will be killed in the first 10 seconds of our encounter.
