I came upon the first Dark Pits supposedly possessed by the Failed Evils and found only nomadic humans. Just three guys with their warlord, and Pits full of goblin skeletons. Maybe those are the site owners. I could've bundled them into a bonfire, but instead I carried on to their last stronghold, another Dark Pits named Troubledmonsters. According to sources, this should have at least 18 goblins, but that's no indication of what I'm up against -- it could be all soldiers, all civilians or mixed. I watched a few come out one by one and intercepted them on their way to neighboring pits. Maybe I can just take them all out with ambushes.
Much earlier in my adventure, I had recruited a crazed Elite Goblin vampire from another nearby Pits, who vanished on me on the way out. It turns out she was rewarded for her murder spree with an appointment as Administrator of the place. I remembered she had nice gear that my Swordgoblin could use if we're going to storm this Failed Evils stronghold. I visited, watched her slaughter her remaining citizens with help from my companions, then accused her of being a Night Creature, and looted her stinking undead corpse. So that place is now a ghost settlement. The gear wasn't that great, but a few more pieces of bronze armor doesn't hurt.
But the date is creeping up on me, and I only have a limited time before the full moon. If I'm going to initiate this elderly Crossbow woman, I have to figure out a way to split the party three ways and still recover them all later.
Edit: I checked around the perimeter of the area, and when I come back, another 60 or so Undead pour out of the tower again! I've killed them all, and there aren't any new necromancers in the tower. Don't tell me I have to keep spawning Undead out of this place until the game runs out of them...
I think this should've been fixed before, or along with, nerfing them. If the necromancers are all dead, what's creating these undead? Did a wandering member of the cult stop by to park his zombie horde before heading out? Is the slab itself generating them? Having an endless supply of practice dummies isn't so bad, but you can't get any sense of completion out of the ordeal.
