I recently created an adventurer who started with just 1500 xp in wrestling. He has no armor, and always keep his hands empty. He is a legendary wrestler with 1000/3800 experience, but he can't kill large groups of zombies enough to finish a ruins quest. Anyone else had more luck with a fists only adventurer?

(I don't cheat at all, when he dies he'll just die, no crashing my computer to save him

If you haven't already, try setting his attack preference to 'strike'

[Shadowslasher]

He's on "Strike" "Move Away" and "Dodge"

Doing so would corrupt your world's data, making it a useless thing to do anyways.

BACKUPS! Always, always restore from a complete backup of the regionX folder and regionX.sav files (if you have only one world, the whole /data/save folder) whenever you ctrlaltdel.

Wrestling/punching dwarves are really really bad against undead. Wrestling relies on pain and strangulation usually, with one or two bleeding eye sockets here or there. Undead cannot feel pain, cannot be strangled, and losing their eyes (if they still have them) won't really affect them.

So yeah, avoid the ruins I'd suggest. Not like you need the items in there if you're playing a naked wrestler type.

[Slanted]

Stock up on Hammer/Macemen buddies? That's about it. The only thing wrestlers can really do to Undead is break limbs...which won't stop them from flopping around and biting out your throat.

i think that you shopuld be able to through the wrestling menu, throw people, that should cause enogh damage to be able to kill the undead.

[FunkyBomb]

Throwing only stuns and knocks down creatures, it does no damage. Since undead cannot be stunned, you might as well just use Takedown.

Even better, just stay away from ruins, period.

Yeh, nothing to do with the topic, but why would Slanted think its a good idea to take Macemen and Hammermen into ruins? Best way to take out Undead is to destroy their bodies, Axeman and Swordsman all the way.

Uh... yes, and maces and hammers have the highest body damage of any weapon, so they're awesome at destroying undead, especially skeletons. Axes/swords might be slightly better against zombies since zombies don't lose broken limbs the way skeletons do but maces are still pretty decent.

[Shadowslasher]

Yeah, the main reason i thought it was so weird was because my legendary hammerman went through ruins like a hot knife through hot butter.

Hammers are fun just because they *never* get stuck and send people flying across the map  

If there is nothing in the way my hammer dwarf would send undead off the screen. If there WAS something in the way they would explode on impact. Heh
