I just love these guys
It was funny: at one point I had a couple of living armors and all of a sudden some dopey mage popped out of COI...and suddenly hoards of LA's spawned and he ran out of there and up the stairs. I had seen this guy hunting earlier with his KBB...I was sort of wondering if he was trying to see if he could get me to leave. Um no. The key is to just use frozen cloud once in awhile to make sure you tag everything for the summons, and then stay on whatever mop they're on. Some of the spawns are going to get bigger and bigger so you have to watch your haste and poly and also not get backed into a corner, but boy it's fun hunting.
I also make sure no mimics decide to run off with all my loot now that NC has decided that it's important for it to all fall to the ground.
Anyway, after this I headed to the sewers to find some scales. No scales so I headed up to 2 for some nastier ramias. Here's the first drop:
I wanted to get these so we could do another pledge hunt on 11+...and NOT GO TO SEER (ahem).
I was planning on going very slow on 2 and 3, so I didn't bother with KBB. Then I saw this:
I kept hoping their AI wouldn't allow them to be smart enough to find me...I think there were about 10 of them and there is no way I can take on 10 medusa on my own, hasted summons or no.
But luckily they didn't find me...a nice spider did instead:
Final note: I have shadowfang for sale assuming someone gives me a PC. Find me in game.
medusa
earth jail kills them (medusa) pretty fast, since they have a weakness to earth
I'll try it next time I'm up
I'll try it next time I'm up there. I wish there was a really effective area earth spell, something like frozen cloud.
Earthquake :)
Earthquake :)
Not EQ
earthquake wouldn't work as you have to be i think 2 cells next to the medusa or w/e your using it on (may be 3 cells, not sure)
The thing with frozen cloud i
The thing with frozen cloud is that it so nicely blankets mops. I am sure that there are spells that do more overall damage to say iron golems, but there is nothing like FC'ing a pack of them to make sure the summons stay working on everything. If I FC a pack of iron golems, I can be sure that I won't accidently miss one that will then turn on me.
And no, I don't bother with blizzard unless I'm bored. FC takes less out of the mage, and I don't really need damage, just tagging ability.
Re: I'll try it next time I'm up
Earth Jail is really a very nice earth equivalent to frozen cloud. I don't know what the base damage comparison is, but range and area of spell is pretty close and it does knock out medusa and cims pretty quick.
