i'm not sure if this is a fluke, or if the insane difficulty A.I. is amazing, anyway, i went down into bodhi's layer as part of Aran Linvail's quest, with my sorcerer, yoshimo, and a mage/cleric. I solo with the sorcy, yoshimo is a backup, and a door opener, the mage/cleric tanks when facing a big army...anyway that's besides the point. i've completed the game twice with that sorcerer, so before ending the game i export, and then import him next time, so he's nice and high now...maybe 28. Anyway, his chain contingency is set to target nearest enemy, and set to go off when he's helpless. I brought my sorcerer and the mage/cleric up towards the vampire/mage in bodhi's lair. We had some nice spell traps on, and got a bit too cocky, figured we could take her out by raining magic missiles on her. Then the fledgling vampire behind her came running forwards, unexpectedly, so i decided to cast symbol:stun, knowing that even if i get stunned, everyone was going to die from the three ADHW's i had in the spell trap. The vamp/mage knew what i was doing, and cast domination on my sorcy, who became stunned. The spell trigger went off, and targeted me. i died soon after...that was the greatest way to die ever, and i thought i'd share it.

LOL! that is either real bad luck, or the insane difficulty A.I is "insane". [img]smile.gif[/img]

walking down in the halls of the lair of firkaag, you are a very strong berserker fighter (level 23), no warrior even the great minc can matched your skill. equiped are 3 double handed swords, lilacor as your main weapon of destruction. you have a long elven bow to destroy enemies from afar, and once they come close you chop them to pieces. you have armor that deflect blows and strikes that would have killed a normal person. boots that make you faster than a lion and jewelry (ring, amulets) to make you nealy invincible. your companions, is only but one, aerie, priest/mage to help you when you are wounded or ill. suddenly you are beset by golems and undead. all of them charged out of nowhere, using your instict you have summoned you berserker fury and charged at them with the full force of your savagery. moments later, all your enemies are gone or vanquished, you yell victory. however you are wounded all over and in critical condition. worse aerie is asleep by one of the vampiric witches. however before you could even take one step towards her, you hear the computer saying "your berserker stage has ended, you character suffered 1d* points of damage" result... death...
