Mace of disruption and Flail of Ages are two weapons that give immunity to level drain.

Boo!

Ah, since when did Flail of Ages give immunity level drain? It doesn't give any immunities until ToB, and then it's just free action. In SoA the only things I believe are the Amulet of Power and Mace of Disruption +2 (you have to jump through some hoops to upgrade it).

Three more weapons in ToB then give you immunity (thank the gods).

Boo indeed. Should be the Anguvadal +5.

@Ieo

Which 3 weapons?

Ok, thank u!

Arguvadal? never heard of it... it's not a SoA item, is it?

So i've to rely on 2 items to protect my 5 party members...

then there's another question: How do I upgrade the mace? (Spoiler requested)

The Mace is upgraded by Cromwell.

The Anguvadal is indeed a ToB item.

Nope, Angur is a ToB weapon only (same with the other two, so I won't mention them here).

Don't forget the clerical spell for negative plane protection, but it's so short (ugh).

For Mace +2, I think it's the second quest you get from the temple of Helm (after you finish the cult thing). They ask you to talk to an artist to do a statue for the temple, the artist demands a specific ore (haven't done this in a while, excuse the lack of details...). After you run around talking to the ore merchant (Waukeem's promenade), the dwarf (Copper Coronet), and that evil Neb guy (Bridge district), you eventually come up with the ore. The trick is that you have to tell the ore merchant first off that you want the FAKE ore made (you have to wait day for this, so you can get the real ore in the meanwhile).

Give the artist the FAKE ore (you may have to put the real ore on the ground so you don't give it to him, don't remember, or just upgrade it at the Docks right away). He'll get mad, blah blah, go back to the temple of Helm, and you still get rewarded. Anyway, you have to take the ore to the Docks and upgrade it there. Quite worthwhile to smite undead

thanx guys!

I'll give it a try...

I have the Neg prot. spell, but... it expires be4 the fights even get started.

Protection from undead protects you from all undead (even Bodhi). Vampires level drain when they hit with their fist. So it is a physical attack and the scroll should be able to protect from that.

The last time I used the scroll, it made my NPC invisible to the undead; I could go around whacking them till they are dead and they can't see me. Quite an effect which I had not expected.

That's true, but I thought that the Protection scroll doesn't work with the main undead - i.e. Bhodi becomes immortal, as does Kangaxx, which slightly screws the game. This has to do with the dialogue, so you must have at least one character WITHOUT the protection scroll, as it were. It's convenient.

It works.

The mage spell protection from magic weapons give you lvl drain immunity

Amulte of power
Mace of disruption

its no big deal anyway... just have your mage with the ammy and stoneskins / prot from magic weapons walk up to the vampires and soak up all the hits while your fighters and such chop them up

Use vahailors helm to replicate your mace of disruption weilding party member... or have a greater restoration spell or two memorized and when your lvl gets low cast it.. it restores all party members to full lvl / hp


In tob the following items give lvl drain immunity

Angurvadel +5.. spelling??
Rune hammer +5
Spectral brand +5
I think thats it
