QUOTE(Daulmakan @ Feb 17 2009, 07:14 PM)  I understand what he's saying. I was surprised by it too, the first time I fought him. You're expecting a powerful mage, not a physical powerhouse, and yet none of your fighters can deal any serious damage. I have never understood this type of approach. Why can't a powerful mage have very powerful "physical" resistances via her powerful magic and knowledge? Should every wizard be protected by 9 golems so no one can reach her? Because without resistances, wizards could be killed very easily, considering their low natural hit points and physical defense. -------------------- Mental harmony dispels the darkness.

That comes from very old concepts that describe a wizard as an elderly man with a long white beard wearing robe.Not really a bug, but I'd mention it. VA#007 has a cavern with a bridge across it as an 'impassable inpenetrable' zone (searchmap). Impassable but visible through would be more consistent imo.
