recommended level for retro dungeons

Zanthia · 02-27-2002, 01:29 PM

what level would you suggest to be in order to do the 3 retro dungeons. I was thinking of doing the cemtary one and my party is level 11. Is it too early do do that one.

Cemetary dungeon is not hard monster-wise. Just be sure you have a good lockpicker or magic user who can cast knock-knock. Everything is behind locked doors, including the way out!

you should at least have spellcasters who can cast magic defence spells because the toughest enemies are the spell casting undead

My lockpick skills is around 60. My bishop has magic screen, element shoeld ,soul shield and missile shield for defense spells.I also have holy water which I saw said it is good against undead. So should I be okay at level 11 then.

Have them cast for the undead battles. You will also face some pure melee type where it's not necessary to have them all up. The Montain Wildnerness can be the hardest to beat beacuse of a boss. But all in one it's not the death.

The first time I entered the cimetary dungeon I got slained like a puddle. I was level 11 average but I bumped into a groups of scorchers level 18, that was a real pain. Before I could do my first movment I lost 75% of my HP for the whole team, ouch! Just be lucky with the monster generator.

The Cemetary is the easiest and the least rewarding of the three. About the only thing I came across unique, item-wise, was a Cutlass of the Damned (crappy sword) and some magical scrolls.

The monsters are fairly spaced out, and since there are hallways and doors galore, pretty easy to fight. The most difficult mobs I came across were Thanatopedes (sp?) that can Kill, Disease you with ranged attacks, and a Vampire Head.

Oh, the way-out is guarded by a Baron Englund (heh) with very weak melee defenses and a group of Trynnie Spirits. Very easy fight if you have Magic Screen, Element and Soul Shield up because you can resist his Sleep and Insanity.

A group of Level 11's can probably go through here.

Can you tell me how I can enter the other two dungeons?

Valantur, try this site. Click Wiz8 and then Easter Eggs, there you will find a detailed description and nice maps. Enjoy!

Never forget your towel, cheers
