Enchanters have more fun! Especially blonde gnomes. I wonder why only the male gnomes have white hair.

It wasn't me! Also my guess is that you can actually split quite a bit by zoning to clear aggro. Like at NG wait for the krup roamer to leave and then root two in the tunnel and 1 by the bridge, then camp out invis. Or snare, run away with a ring of shadows, then camp out/gate back, hope the named is solo etc. Unfortunately I am not sure a wizard has the mana to burn down a 51+ named . . . 3k mana @ 4:1 is 12k damage which is kinda borderline and you might end up having to skin yourself . . . so you just need 3-4 corpses with conflag wands [You must be logged in to view images.

The wiki claims disintegrate goes up to 52 but that must be a bug.

Ah that's my fault. He was originally classed as a warrior, but I fought him maybe a year ago (unsuccessfully) and he harmtouched me. When I killed him a few months ago I realized he wasn't casting but I was too lazy to change it back. Also for the uninitiated the 'east nook' is #12 on the wiki map. Necrious first showed me back in the day when he could run around impudently with his VP gained VS faction.

I also had to bring a shiverback with me, so going right for SE corner wasn't as much of an option, (and i was also there to kill gorgons for my tunic)

Part of my problem is Svenn left horrible directions! The scareling tower is more south than east and I thought he was talking about the yellow pillar. Finally I said fuck it, I like the more southerly approach anyway and I was actually in this area near the end but I was emotionally a bit spent after 6 hours babysitting a charmed pet. I was ivu pulling toads through the gap between the boogey house which is how I got my gorgons and so on. Next time I think I'm going to clear out some space in that area and then give my pet some rogue snare daggers so I can fearkite those stupid toads. But I need a week or two to recover [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
