I've never seen the Mortal Strike actually one-shot me. It *does* do a huge amount of damage though. Have you confirmed beyond doubt that it is a true insta-kill, or is it just so much damage that most players don't survive it? -Leiknir- |

I was soloing Algor yesterday and he has a nasty habit of teleporting you away from the fight. This can be highly annoying at times. However, there is a way around it I found that allows you to solo him easy enough and prevents him from porting you at the same time. ![]() Edited by ShadowFist (03/29/07 07:41 AM) |

Teleporting you? Are you referring to his knockback attack? I just stand against a wall once I've taken care of his friends. |

I think it was a teleport. I was standing my ground with a huge number of mobs trying to hit me and then poof! I was clear across the room/field. I was not knocked down or anything like that. One sec I was in the mob fighting the next way across the room/field. To me it seemed to be a teleport. I guess it could be a knockback ability... dunno for sure. To get around it I do as you said in your post. I put my back to a cliff drop off or a wall and everything is golden. Rhonen Edited by ShadowFist (03/29/07 01:57 PM) |

Personally, I like it when he does it. He's polite enough to wait until I need to chug a pot, and then he goes ahead and gives me extra time to do it. -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

Agrock got fired with the .71 patch just like Algor lost some of his minions.... as I said a couple of posts ago this hasn't been updated to reflect the changes that have been made with the new patches. Gary |

I think this guide must be edited as some changes occurred after the 0.95 build. Quote: Boss Fights Tweaked We’ve been adjusting some of the boss fights to address some difficulty and coolness issues… • Rotgut Rotgut has an awesome new bit of theme music! • Abaddon The resurrection skill that was used against you in previous versions of this fight has been put back in! • Shadow Queen The Shadow Queen fight has been totally reworked. It’s freaking awesome! • Ratsputin A terrible exploit was fixed in the Ratsputin boss fight. I just fought Widower. The guide says: Widower (The Widower's Nest) Level 20-40 Skills: Widow's Curse (Can't use abilities and mana drained during 10secs) Widower Hatchling Sacrifice (regen Widower) Summon Widower Hatchling Widower Prison (Can't move and Hp drained during 10secs) Knockback Charge Resistances: Low Poison Resist No Fire Resist High Ice Resist Good Shadow Resist No Divine Resist Widower is protected by Widower Hatchling. Well she was immune to fire, had resistances for shadow and maybe for poison and might not be resistant to cold. I don’t know how to determine if the resistance is low/good/high |

As was said earlier this guide was written months ago (probably at least 5 builds ago) The devs tweak the fights with every build so very little in the guide is still useful. The low/high resistance is based on observation though. If you are using a firebolt that is leveled to your current level and the boss resists almost every time you shoot it is high if you are able to hit some then it is only a low resistance. This is a bad thing when people start looking at guides that are months old you often find out of date information that if followed will easily get you killed. Especially true in a game that evolves as fast as this one does. -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 49 - Ice Mage Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.110 |

Hmm…so only observation…then I’ll just test everything and see what is working. Frankly I would want to see my suggestion applied, the one with the color code: green for poison, red for fire, blue for ice, etc. and the same for word resist. This way would be easier. But I post everything to the ‘Suggestions: The complete collection’ thread here and I don’t know if somebody is looking there, cause I didn’t see any comment. I also post there a bug with KC…don’t think that was noticed… |
