Ok, had a bit of trouble with kurosian, the acid ninja, not samurai...no samurai would stoop to stealing other peoples toys....

and while i whacked him, i felt bad cause i did not have a userunfreindly sure fired tactic for whacking him with no fuss...

found it,...its all about spawn control, if you know how to get him in the right location, you can take him with a low powered party...

get as many prot from acid scrolls as possible....after doing the guarded compound, have pc cast 2 prot from acid on himself...go outside, and then equipp celestial fury...

sleep...

you may get the roust by guards, just ignore them for the orc bait they are, and sleep again...

kurosian will spawn on the bridge in front of you...

by now you do have 2 rings of ram, right??? use them to PUSH(they will get thru his spell immunity and prot from magic weapons, and will NOT activate acid revenge...) him INTO the temple of lathander...now, when you get near the temple, happend 3 times while i was testing this tactic...(if you run out of charges, stick into handy gem bag for a secons, and they are fully recharged...

)

black sun bozos will spawn...let them taste celestial fury, and then slowly count til 30....

then go in the temple...his spell immunity and prot from magic weapons is WORN off, and i chunked him with celestial fury (payback time, yeah, baby, yeah!!!), now the BEST sword in the game is yours...

the regen alone is too good, better than black razor, cuase it is one hp per second...

and the acid revenge fits my mood very well...

+4, immune to acid!!!!

1 hp regen per SECOND!!!!

dont need anything else...

also, try this in killing the archliche and the lich north of the theives guild building...

cast prot from energy and elements on yourself, and set this up in chain contingency...

remove magic, inc cloud, inc cloud!!!!

nasty, not a good one to use every day, but the archliche and helper did not get a single spell off, and died badly...

remove magic and abu abu killed off the twisted rune improved....though i had 3 high powered mages...2 sorcs and aerie...

acid katana makes you almost invulnerable to spells!!!!

kangazz, the improved one,, managed to hit me with abu, and the acid revenge kept interrupting his spells!!!! if the enemy mage hits you with a stinking magic missile, the acid revenge will keep disrupting his spells!!!!

whoo hoo.... amost better than bounce cloak,,,

with bounce cloak, eeekkkkkk!!!!

twisted rune, arch liche and north of guid all require high powered parties, since kangy also is scripted to use dispell magic, so bye bye prot from undead...

i hit him fast and with 5 dragon breaths...

he was crispy...

What is acid revenge? And who is the archlich? Is it part of the Soulafein MOD?

you need sola mod to play this, acid revenge is my name for when anybody, hits you whiel you are holding acid katana, they get a retaliation of acid damage back...read description of keldys hallowed redeemer...

sorta like if they hit you with spel or weapon, they immediately get a proportional, (same amount of damage) in melf acid arrows back in their face!!!so anybody hits you , get s the same damge reflected back at them, and since you regen so fast anyway, you are impossible to take down anyway...

with haste (boots of speed) and impr haste, via spell, so you can dual wield, you are already regenerating at 4 hp per second...

all this is great stuff, but its no so fun when you are facing kurosian....

are u saying that [imp] haste doubles regeneration rate? sure?

UserUnfriendly · Post by **UserUnfriendly** » Sat May 11, 2002 2:56 am

its well known...actually haste and imp haste will stack, if cast on top of each other, and flip side is if youre in a inc cloud, you will take damage much faster...
known bug exploit...

try regen, the cleric spell on a fighteer on haste and impr haste....boots of speed and impr haste for dual wield...

almost unkillbale by conventional means, will eat tons of golems for breakfast...

hehe in every major battle i have my fighters with imp haste and regeneration spell, boots anyway. i knew the speed effect stacks, i just thought the spell is meant to b that fast reg...
boots of speed do not increase regeneration i am quite sure, at least not with all the common patches/mods. was there a time when they increased attacks by 1 just like haste? now they dont, but i think they did once, or am i wrong? look like all they do now is doubling walk speed.
