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.

I just finished the initially tough battle against Ustrain; I found out that timestop along with Slayer form's melee cold-damage(?) attack took him out very quickly though heh. I dunno if maybe I have another mod which allows the Slayer form to upgrade over time and become overpowered though, but anyway.
I was wondering if Ustrain's spellbook is supposed to do anything now? It still says no-one in the party is powerful enough yet to unlock it, are there any special requirements to use the book or is it meant to stay as it is after the battle (my guy is a 22 sorcerer/18 int)? |
