Found 4 of 5 no Tiamat though :(

I had in mind mini 10 room areas that had to be approached like a hell trip. Very difficult to do solo, something that would require a group that worked together really well. Something TOUGH. The gear (I think) makes the challenge worthwhile. So far they've risen to the occasion, though I think the White is too easy as it is and I'll be adding a few things to make it more of a challenge.

From what I've seen only Red and Tiamat haven't been found yet.

I haven't seen hide nor hair except for the white.

I do think this is a good change.

Those lairs are insane though, and the mob AI is re-####ing-diculos.

They chased me out of the area!

I'm just sad that my old-school dragon stuff poofed. :(

nt

lots of hp and saves but very little dam/str/dex/and to a lesser extent con on the gear. I mean with how insanely deadly they are now would be cool to see more useful stuff for warriors.

lots of nasty cool talismen and such though.

IS this really what you want these places to be like?


7 of 10 dead in a few rounds, if I recall correctly. THIS is what I call excitement. We need more of this.

Well, I guess I shouldn't speak. I wasn't in the group so I don't how organized they were... But... Healer, invoker, transmuter, shape shifters, paladin, and warriors? All of them can't take down 1 mob? Wozers....

>I wasn't in the group so I
>don't how organized they were...

Well, put it this way. This group has an invoker. Does it look like these people have shields up to you?

They got surprised by something.

Yeah, I gathered that. Not trying to bitch, it was just really surprising to see this. And from some of the folks there I figured they were at least somewhat organized. I just see this and realize that I'll never again see the day that I get to take down tiamat.

They actually made a really good run with less people earlier, but then some mistakes were made.

Tiamat looks a lot scarier when she's a veteran of many battles a dozen times over.

Well, I guess I might have just learned something new to me... Thought veteran of battle was the same... But each time it stacks or they get stronger? Good to know I suppose!

It bumps up the mob's level. So your spells are harder to land on it, its spells are easier to land on you, etc.

I posted some helpful advice about taking on Tiamat on the announcements board. This group chose to disregard it, which makes things harder on them.
