You need to get your Dark Magic skill way way up . . . 02/01/2016, 20:08:28

That can't be done with the v1.0 game because you hit the game engine limit at an effective skill level of 60, but I believe it can be done with the fully patched game. You need to get your average damage from a Shrapmetal blast up to about 1300. I'll leave you to work out what basic skill level that needs!

That still seems to be a lot risky, - Ramillies ( Tue 02-Feb-16 05:47:42 ) +1 So I will have to apply the usual tactics... - Jack ( Tue 02-Feb-16 06:27:57 ) +1 Sure - Ramillies ( Tue 02-Feb-16 06:59:17 ) +1 I agree that save/reload is about the only effective tactic against terminators. - Xanax ( Tue 02-Feb-16 08:05:23 ) +3 So I will have to pump Dark Master to 60 then...*rolls eyes* - Jack ( Tue 02-Feb-16 08:47:53 ) +1 With fully patched game, I believe you can achieve 255. - Ramillies ( Tue 02-Feb-16 09:07:40 ) Yes. Fortunately, there is no reason to enter that big room, so it can be safely skipped. - Ramillies ( Tue 02-Feb-16 09:09:43 ) +1 Good I already have guinevere and ringof dark magic (n/t) - Jack ( Tue 02-Feb-16 10:33:19 ) I found that no type of blaster worked against Terminators in the big room. - Peter2 ( Wed 03-Feb-16 06:01:47 ) +3 Correction - Peter2 ( Wed 03-Feb-16 06:04:15 ) Peter, I didn't mean to suggest using blasters on terminators. - Xanax ( Wed 03-Feb-16 08:14:44 ) +1 Ah, right. There, we differ. I'm a firm believer in a scorched earth policy. - Peter2 ( Wed 03-Feb-16 12:44:01 ) +2 same here - Jack ( Wed 03-Feb-16 17:29:38 ) I did that once - every enemy and every quest. - Xanax ( Wed 03-Feb-16 18:00:40 ) +1 My policy is to go everywhere reachable and do everything doable, and . . . - Peter2 ( Wed 03-Feb-16 20:14:05 ) +1 in my solo mm7 & mm8 - Jack ( Thu 04-Feb-16 01:38:10 ) I think I cannot completely agree (at least theoretically). - Ramillies ( Thu 04-Feb-16 12:05:19 ) +2 good its all still ahead of me. - Jack ( Thu 04-Feb-16 13:41:04 ) +1 Sure. This is just an attempt to initiate a theoretical discussion with Peter and your game has now nothing to do with it (n/t) - Ramillies ( Thu 04-Feb-16 16:34:22 ) In theory, yes, but in practice, no. - Peter2 ( Thu 04-Feb-16 18:38:52 ) +1 That's interesting. - Ramillies ( Thu 04-Feb-16 19:02:56 ) +1 Also the Brownian motion I was referring to - Ramillies ( Thu 04-Feb-16 19:12:05 )
