Got a bit late trying to kill the boss, so it got delayed till this morning.
UD XXIV: Totally Completed
I do really liked deep fried mages, though we shoudl probably get a replacement.
Good thinking, some one less dead would be good.
We head back and find some new volunteers
So are you by any chances fighting any dragons?
You look familiar, have I seen you before?
I believe not, I am Naplo the dragon slaying druid
I don't think there has been a dragon seen around these parts ofr hundreds of years
Thats because I do my job
... but you couldn't possibly have...
But if you kill an undead dragon does that count?
Well I suppose so, but who are you any way?
I am Necrobreska the necromancer, where are we going any way?
Into some lair of one ancient evil or another
With you guys? Then were DOOMED! DOOMED I say, just the way I like it
Our new adventurers, Naplo the fighter/druid
and...
Necrobreska the necromancer
We continue were we left of last time, it's a linear dungeon crawler what do you expect?
A few spells should inder them form charging through unstopped...
... or not.
Any way if you look closely you can see Sweety standing on the bridge in stealth mode, blocking the creatures from passing, and they don't attack since she is stealthed. Entirely unintended exploit from my part
looks like we're at the end of this part of the cave, into the next!
I wonder were this leads...
it is a mystery... sorry just got used to some one saying that
It will probably be our doom, ahaha...
Ahahahahha!...oh
Upon breaking and entering we get assaulted by several aggravated Scrag homeowners.
Some elementals join the party
While were fighting the trolls and scrags some sort of
multi headed dick water elemental rears it's ugly head
Sadly in our current setup we have no one proficient in ranged weapons, so we have to resort to Magic missile!
... well sweety is proficient in bows, however there is not a single enchanted bow (better than +1) in this game that a thief can use, they are all either longbows, or short bows with the "not usable by: thief" tag. Seriously whats up with that, I've even looked through the entire item database...
half a dozen magic missile spells seems to do the trick
Do I have to do everything around here by my self?
Further ahead, we counter some more trolls, sure they of the "greater" variety but we haven't really died fighting them for ages (disclaimer: self inflicted death by lightning bolt does not count!)
An overview of this little part of the cave, we entered from the north.
Elemental smash!
Once again I'm the only one doing anything around here, what are you even useful for?
Bunch of whatevertheyare show up
I love those elementals, it's almost like cheating, except better!
Another one of those things!
It's kinda cute
It's not another thing, it's merely another head of the multi headed dick
Looks like water to me
Obviously some one turned it into water
having finished that we cross the bridge of sorts that cross the chasm. Skeletons really? Party is at level 13 or so not level 3.
Plenty of both dead and undead around here
But first we have some bridge trolls to deal with
Your only killing poor innocent trolls all the time, screw this I'm staying in my dice.
A single elemental is both completely immune, and block the way.
ok thats done, next stop the other side (of the bridge)
Well makes sense that they would be cold actually in a place like this, but what difference does it make?
Some sort of frost Aoe is released, well they have to do more than that to be a dangers!
... except it keeps going of again, and again and again...
So we just stand back and drop a few fireballs
So what purpose do you other guys fill exactly? I'm doing all the work
Well I for one once those elementals are dead actually stand around here on the bridge preventing those really mad creatures from carving up your guts also I say some thing... Oh yes... None shall pass!
Well I suppose you at least might be useful
Damage getting higher...
Oh shit oh shit oh shit, were did that come from, retreat!
Thanks to awesome Infinity engine pathfinding Naplo gets stuck in the cul de sac below. Whoever coded this made some groundbreaking advanced in the field of Artificial stupidity.
No problem though
We have a look around the room up ahead. A beholder skeleton? Well I suppose, except for the fact that it's one piece, how does it chew if it's jaw is stuck? Must have been why it died.
While further scouting around and looking for trouble Sweety manages to fail the hide in shadows check while doing so instantly become visible!
Stupid undead, couldn't see me even if.... oh shit...
We prepare to fighting by making a bunch of sparkling lights
Enemies coming better do something
Don't worry I'll save you from your DOOOM!
Forward my minions!
The skeleton mage manages to get out of the insect swarm and thus can cast and gets of a blizzard or whatever spell it is, it hurts.
Here you can see and large empty red circle, this is because one of those annoying wyrm things got disintegrated by Necrobreska.
The remaining enemies are no problem
Among the corpses in the room we find some stuff, nothing great
Oh! A wand of lightning bolt I could have fun with this
I think it's best to... avoid using those...
Fine I'll just use it in a different way then
Also a pair of rings are found, the +2 protection ring would be useful if it wasn't for the fact that everyone is either wearing one already, or have enchanted armor so they can't equip it any way.
the ring of invfravision on the other hand is completely useless, I suppose if the game had truly dark dungeons were you can't see shit with out torches/infravision it would be great, however as it is, no thanks.
Another member of the multiheaded dick club shows up and is quickly dismembered
Looks like were nearing the end of this part of the cave
Is that what I think it is?
Hmm might be
... so the bridge we crossed was in fact...
... a dragons tail, and were standing in the lair of huge dragon.
So I wonder what if one would use ones power over the... not alive in order to ... reanimate this specimen...what power.
Thats sound like a really good idea, though for some reason we can't
We encounter a fishman thing and his minions, looks like the talky kind, but I know how this goes first they talk, then they go all hostile.
SO we finish the other creatures in the room first
ActivisionBlizzard, run away!
A few extra minions are raised and well the rest is easily ... killed?
Not entirely sure why I used chain lightning when there are only two hostile creatures and the rest are our minions, oh well a little over kill never hurts
Checking the side of the dragon we find some dead adventurer inside, looks quite well equipped, though didn't save him from the faith of "eaten by dragon"
A look at the loot, some nice armor
And some quite nice gloves!
Could be useful I suppose to free up a ring slot on some one.
This we have no use for
And finally a sword, which would be good, except for the fact that every one is equipped with at least +4 weapons, that don't require any specifics to work
Looting the altar by the fish man we find this armor, it's alright... but still.
So we speak with the fishman
Turns out he didn't go hostile, now that a first
In the next room we are immediately attacked by something called a Vodaynoy or something, and looks like a umberhulk, but isn't!
Also some fishmen, silence stops their spells whatever they are
More enemies come in from the room next to the one were in
Unlike umberhulks these don't seem to use a confusion spell, thus they are much much easier to kill
Oh shit traps I didn't expect that after the rest of this place having a grand total of zero traps
Death to the Xeno
Traps eveywhere it would seem, I foresee a slow crawl ahead while searching for traps in every random place
Ahead we get attacked by some more creatures
Yay more traps
the annoying elementals won't let us pass
SO their standing in the way of our progress?
Perhaps we have to do something to get by them?
Screw that I don't have time for that, I'm hitting it with my sword
Is that a good idea?
To late already did it!
Turns out they had backup,
a lot of backup
While we are fighting the elementals the fishmen are stuck in multiple web spells and beeing bombarded with fieryballs
But they simply refuse to die, cloud kill the chain lightning should help with that.
Sure does.
Next up some more annoying creatures
Cybernegro grabs a bow that he has zero skill in and starts shooting despite this, it's not to hard to hit with a +2 longbow as it alone gives a decent THAC0
It's a trap
I have no idea how this happened, I'll blame the games Artificial stupidity
To avoid trouble form the annoying elemental we put it in a bubble
The rest are pretty weak and die quickly
Next we loot the pots lining the wall and find some quite nice items just lying around
Didn't get the stats on this one, but anything with a long description has to be good.
Nothing says I love you like a dagger in the back.
Smiting is always fun!
Told you I'm a dragon slayer!
Well I suppose that was a dragon, and what your doings ended up with it killed so I suppose you are correct.
Damn it doors locked, and obviously "warded against simple spells" I wonder what these complex spells are that will open any lock.
Any way we head back search the room, it seems one of the fishmen carried a key so we try it out, and it works!
in the next room.... oh shit itz a dragon! And not any dragon the one we have been looking for.
'
Enough talking more dragon slaying!
So it begins!
Time to show us your dragon slaying skills Naplo, you wouldn't wan tthis to en din DOOM would you?
... uh this one might be
slightly larger than the ones I'm used to...
Of course no epic boss fight is complete with out a bunch of minions to firther complicate matters.
I have absolutely no idea what that purple thing is, but it can't be good.
Damned ice breath hurts.. a lot, two party members down!
That shit manages to hit in a 360 degree arc somehow, even hitting behind, lame. And takes down two more party members.
Red dragon is now a green dragon.
>God damned shit breath attack kills sweety as well.
Next thing you know the dragon is dead.
Why do I always have to do everything by my self?
Though it's not over, it seems the dragons spirit has retreated into something called a "soulgem" guess we need to destroy that as well.
But first some minions! Five of them
You people were no use in life, perhaps you can be more useful in death.
What do you mean magic resistance?
I think I used lower resistance on it earlier.
All minions are unundead, and we are nearly completly out of spells, can Necrobreska pull this off?
Shes still got one spell left
Feel my lich touch bitches!
Sadly it didn't all died.
Alright ready to go again!
Minions come!
Naplo manages to get hit by hold person and confusion, and is as a result raped by fish men
Well it aint over yet, we cast some healing spells to repair the damage
Whats with all the lucky hold spells?
All died once again
Third times the charm?
Seems so the dragon goes down damned quickly, thanks to some extremely lucky rolls, the rest is just mop up.
We move up to the soul gem.
A blizzard and confusion on Naplo and Strangerlove, this could hurt.
Strangerlove starts wailing on Cybernegro, and hits pretty hard, so Laurentius uses the sphere spell on her to make sure no one dies form this madness
We go back and bash the gem a little bit and hell we have saved the world and all that stuff
Our brave party of adventurers head out of the dragons lair and into the sun set. All is well or is it?
Cue extro movie
The end.
You didn't finish the original end boss!
Well I finished the
last boss didn't I? Any way I sort of lost some those insignias that you need to fight the last boss along the way when some character carrying. So ain't happening
But you can't just...
No buts the end.
but!
We are Totally Completed, The end!
