Best way to kill a (Deity)?
« on: July 09, 2012, 01:53:29 am »
I want to save the Humans from thier Deity, so what is the best way?

I am a necromancer and he just gave me a quest to kill a dragon...

Should i drag the corpse back to the keep and rez it right next to him? Or is there some other method I should employ?

I'd say dragon zombies are a marvelous way of killing gods.

So are 3-tailed twilight creatures :)

Just make sure to revive it a couble of times.

Am i right that people wont hate you for doing necromancy, neither for your zombies killing people?
Becouse if so, you should revive the dragon in the courtyard, and then revive the soldiers it murders for a bonus army meatshield.
Just make sure that if the dragon dies fighting the deity, dont revive it imidiatlly becouse you dont want the body to be too chopped up.
Otherwise it will jsut collapse to fast.
Thats why you need those undead soldiers and keep reviving them, as they are a renevable resource, and dragons are not.

EDIT:
From my own expirience, the best ways of killling a deity was.
1. Decapitation, if its not an elephant-god or something like that with a massively thick neck.'
2. Bloodloss, yup, if it bleeds it can become Faint, then Pale, and then die of bloodloss (thats how i killed the elephant-god)

I suppose you could bisect it but that wouldnt really be a better alternative to the other methods.

Good luck!  ;)

Titans can also be re-animated as zombies, if you can find some.

It is very satisfying, and a good recruitment method, to let a zombie horde loose in a marketplace. The merchants become much more silent and obedient.

Forgotten beasts can be rezzed. Might be worth building a fort just to farm fbs for the purpose.
