[1.0] Acwellan the Higher Necromancer (lich) wins the game

#1 Post by PowerWyrm »

Character at: http://te4.org/characters/1002/tome/30b ... 732d155766

This is the kind of character that is so easy to play. Only died once, but that was on purpose (to attain lichdom). For this character, I tried a mix of dark spells/minions. Once the good set of items was gathered, I dealt over +100% darkness damage with 80% critical spell chance, which meant one-shotting or two-shotting almost anything with Darkness beam and Moonlight Ray. Throw a few minions here and there for the toughest fights and the game is over in the blink of an eye...

Maybe I'll try Atamathon with this char just to see how bad he is.

Hi, sounds fun and i am going to try the same. Some questions:

1) where do you get the heart to transform into a lich? is it ceilia´s from the graveyard? is it hard to do this at lvl 20?
2) is "Will o' the Wisp" worth the 5 points? seems like this char is already short on points.
3) is Celestial / Star fury 1.10 anyhow useful?

1) Yes you need to kill Celia. Go to the graveyard at low level to generate an "easy" Celia and leave (this is probably a bug, as you're not supposed to leave once you enter, but you can exploit that I guess). Come back when you're able to kill random boss undead (including eternal bone giants!) with 1000+ hps and a set of nasty talents. Celia herself is a pushover.

2) The Will o' the wisps will do massive damage when they explode. If you're not going for full minion build, you'll have the points (see my build).

3) It's mandatory if you plan long-term. With Moonlight Ray, you get a SECOND bolt spell doing massive darkness damage with a cooldown of 3. The only problem is that it hurts your minions while Darkness beam does not. The starfall talent can stun a group of 3x3 enemies, which is also nice.

I was playing with one of these guys today, though going minion-less.

Just wanted to chime in that the Celia quest was really easy to cheese with Impending Doom + Phase Door. +Arcane Damage seems to really beef up impending doom, so one shot and phase door-ing to an adjacent room was enough to either kill or put me one shot from killing pretty much everyone (with 3 or 4 points into ID). I was a bit worried going on, but it turned out to be really simple.
