Oh wow. It seems as I die at Death once, my own healing mines start to damage me. What the hell, really .

I'm not entirely sure, but that might be something that happens when you've got the gauntlet. Or it might just be a bug.

[Moghjubar]

Its the gauntlet. Its supposed to do that.  What its not supposed to do is wait till you die once to update in order to do that.

Also known as: Its a trap!

[Deon]

Ah! Thanks for clarifying . Now it's much easier for me to pass that level.

[SalmonGod]

Yes.  Excited about this!  Lag problems were the #1 issue with this game.

Daww, I cannot win that place where an army of dwarves with beholders marches down the corridor. I always die when there's just a wizard and a few warriors are left.

Died a bunch of times there myself.

Just keep shooting qfasss down the corridor until you feel confident they all died. And then shoot some more.

EDIT: Has anyone noticed that everything good is also extremely deadly to your allies? AOE casting, lightning and just freezing everything.

[Deon]

Well, usually beholders get time to fly close enough to spam me with their missiles. I really miss that stuff which caused spell deflection. I should've kept it.

I try to combine water + ice to freeze them, but still somehow I am overwhelmed, usually by teleporting dwarves. I don't have enough hands to deal with everyone .

And yeah, the friendly fire is awesome in this game .

P.S> I wonder, instead of coming in this corridor, there was a door which I opened by a fireball but didn't come through. Are there two different ways to walk through this level?

Staff of Invisibility is best staff if you ask me.
Nothing better than invisibility that lasts longer than the cooldown.

lightning + shield + self-cast nullifies a lot of beholder spam

[umiman]

A little bit before that army part, you get the summon elemental spell.

SPAM IT! 

Or just use fqasss to rape everything.

[Deon]

Wow, I really missed that spell. Is it on the same level? Where's the book, spoil it for me .

As I said they somehow come through fqasss.

P.S. The only rare stuff I've found is the "Stung" sword in mines. I think I missed most of secrets otherwise .

I would have thought Beholders are arcane. Good to know.

[Deon]

Wow, I didn't know you can self-cast shields. Great to know!

P.S. It looks like I can't self-cast lightning+shield... How so? Also where is that elemental spell?

[Neonivek]

Ohhh... and if you have shields self cast on you (the personal forcefield) arrows will knock you back. I fought that out the hardway.

Also you did self cast Lightning + Shield... you just didn't notice.
