But nothing beats Shrapmetal at contact range delivered by a Dark master with 25 skill levels in Dark, and wearing a Ring of Dark Magic together with Guinevere. I have known a fully equipped ACSS party to take down a gold dragon with three casts of Shrapmetal under those conditions.

(n/t) - Peter2 ( Thu 24-Oct-13 05:47:36 ) Right - I must try that again. - Peter2 ( Wed 23-Oct-13 11:39:25 ) +1 What about magical resistance? - Ramillies ( Wed 23-Oct-13 12:49:30 ) +1 It depends who is doing the casting. - Peter2 ( Wed 23-Oct-13 15:00:05 ) +1 Yes ... but I wanted to ask whether the dragons get some resistance roll against this. - Ramillies ( Thu 24-Oct-13 01:59:17 ) +1 I should imagine the answer to that will be in Bones' Combat Guide - Peter2 ( Thu 24-Oct-13 05:46:19 ) +1 Sadly I can only imagine, because it is not in there. - Ramillies ( Thu 24-Oct-13 12:04:34 ) +1 I'll have a bash at it sometime, but heaven only knows when I'll have the time to get around to it. (n/t) - Peter2 ( Thu 24-Oct-13 12:47:17 ) +1 I have the time, but not the party capable of casting the spell (n/t) - Ramillies ( Thu 24-Oct-13 15:48:59 ) Can I? That's interesting. - Ramillies ( Tue 22-Oct-13 07:59:44 ) +1 The spells work if the monsters are close to the ground. - Peter2 ( Tue 22-Oct-13 09:48:44 ) +1 I'll surely give it a try in my current game. Just need to get there ... from the Goblinwatch undergrounds. (n/t) - Ramillies ( Tue 22-Oct-13 11:23:36 ) +1 That's quite some way to go then! - Peter2 ( Tue 22-Oct-13 12:35:41 ) +1 I know it's there. However, I intentionally do not use it. - Ramillies ( Tue 22-Oct-13 12:56:02 ) +1 It could be either. - Peter2 ( Tue 22-Oct-13 16:04:05 ) +1 Heh, I have still much to learn about this game ...
