Minotaurs... thanks queen!
« on: December 16, 2010, 08:55:40 pm »

So my dwarf who had accumulated 4 last names, 11 notable kills working for a queen; finally got the quest to kill a minotaur in a lybrith.  Well needless me and 12 soldiers from the castle go to fight this beast and gain glory.  He slain-ed all of us; not only that he was killing like 2 people each turn.

all 13 men dead; i tried to crawl out of there cause i was the first one to go; but he just mashed my head with his maul

anyone beat a minotaur with just a hero ? (starting out)

Minotaurs are rock, I haven't killed one yet and I've killed damn near everything else.

Minotaurs are so badass because they have a tag that gives them level 8 (A.K.A, "Adept") in all weapon skills.

And yes, i've killed one. Though I walked (crawled) away with a shattered lower spine and both my hands ripped to pieces.

I've killed one...sorta. It gored my stomach and knocked me out while my companions fought and killed it. I think I lost like half of them though...

Yes, I killed a minotaur which only had a pick, I used a sword and had about 10 shields. But... Then again, I did slash it's fingers off first to make him pass out from pain.

I fought one once - savescummed until I DIDN'T get a terrible wound in the first round of combat, and got a clean one-shot to the head.

Also I was a superlegendary demigod.

And been a bit smug over generating a world with an elephant monster that got 87763 sentient kills.
