19. combat tests of different builds (solo)


[QUOTE=silverdragon72]tested the "assassin", the "kensai", cleric & sorc build(all described in the FAQ) in all of the major battles (including IUZ) stand-alone - with the following results:

assassin:
+ absolutely no problems in all major temple battles
+ can sneak next to the main threat
+ with a sneak first strike (full attack) he kills casters in one round and and most others in two
+ "normal" enemies will only hit him with a natural 20
+ has extremly good saves

kensai:
+ there are only very few enemies who could hit her with less then 20
+ very good against larger enemy groups
+ and doesn't need to care about saves at all (very important when soloing)
- but needs longer to kill some of the big bosses with very high AC

cleric:
+ does a good job soloing
- but is far behind the other two (problems against high AC - not the best AC
+ some good self-buffing spells

sorc:
- really hard against enemies SR and good saves - when she has to rely on melee
+ but some defensive spells and with lots of potions not completely impossible


biggest problem when soloing:
- it's not that easy to reach level 4 or 5
- you will get in real trouble with a solo level 2 or 3 PC in the moathouse !
- trying to get EXP via resting will need a reload in most cases after a date with 2 or 3 trolls !


solo-fun:

soloing with the Alu-demon (you need to keep on PC in the background)

20. Powerfull NPCs: Darley


[QUOTE=silverdragon72].


...some more infos and tips about Darley:


for everyone who didn't know: Darley is definetly the coolest (and one of the best) NPCs in TOEE !



the main and AFAIK only difference between her human and alu-demon shape is the AB:

- as human she has AB 7 - but as alu-demon she has AB 12 !!!

- AFAIK her shape has *no* influence on her HP !

- Everytime she joins for the 1st time she gets her HP via hitdice !

- tried this several times with a HP range from 83 to 107 !

...her hit-dice could be (10(level) x 1D4(Sorc) + 3(CON)) + ~50 (alu-demon bonus)


...and there doesn't seem to be any difference if she is in her human or demon shape...




how Darley gets most powerfull:


...she might be a sorc (with only few spells) but she is a great melee fighter (only in her alu-demon shape) when she uses the right items !


...give her bracers +5, a ring of prot. +2, a deep red ioun stone, let Kella cast barkskin on her, and let your wizard craft a wand of shield for her:

this way she will have a more or less permant AC 41 !



...then craft a +3 weapon and gauntlets of STR+6 for her:

then she will have an AB of 18 !



then she should use a greatsword or a glaive...

...and she seems to be able to use holy (!) weapons (she only loses 10HP that way) but I'm still testing this...



additional I would give her an amulet of CON +6

and a cloak of CHA+6 or a cloak of resistance +3 (but her saves are bad so you better rely on her SR and give her the CHA+6 to power-up her charm spells)


...btw. heighten her charm spells to level 5, with SF, GSF and CHA+6 they will get very hard to save against !



...her only minus is that she doesn't have any comabt feats (cleave or whirlwind)

but when using her stoneskin spells in melee she definetly rocks !

22. Max HP hack

[QUOTE=Lord Plothos]Anybody out there reroll constantly for hp at levelup? Anybody do them one better and use the console to set hp to where it should be? Well, here you can find a link to something that will save you some trouble:

http://www.co8.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1752

Note: This will work with patch 2, even with temple.zip installed, but not with patch 3 or 1 or none. I THINK it's compatible with co8, if patch 2 and/or temple.zip is also applied. Haven't tested it myself, but from the response at co8, it works just great.

Enjoy![/QUOTE]


...didn't try it - but could be useful
