[b21] Cornac archmage L26 kills himself on dark crypts
Posted: Fri Mar 18, 2011 9:48 am
Died using disruption shield (Steel II killed Steel II!) while pretty surrounded by cultists and the best powers on cooldown. I had no idea the damage of the disruption shield would hit myself too, what's the scope of this spell then? I won't take it again if I make another archmage. I forgot to try using the evade power of the Wind's Whisper, I've got three pages of powers anyway, and I'm not sure the stone wall was ready or not. I should have taken some time to think, in those deadly moments the game becomes chess-like. Perhaps keeping the powers more orderly (in 1024x768 the twelve power goes to the side and it may not be noticed) would be an improvement, I left a mess in the power list. Now I know the difference between a staff with a teleportation spell and a wand. If the staff isn't in your hand (in this case was offhand) you need a turn more, which means often it's too late.
I'm satisfied with this build anyway, except for disruption shield, wasted points. It seems very hard to survive with an archmage without stoneskin.
