i have already defeated firkraag in earlier encounters, but now im playing as an assassin and when i back stabbed it said 'backstab seemed to have failed'!!!
i did 17 damage so with the 7* backstab damage that would have been 119 damage!!!
but then firkraag proceeded to fry my whole party.

can u backstab firkraag? or is this just a bug?

thanks

I believe dragons are among the critters immune to backstab in this game, along with golems and barbarians.

You have to use the assassin's poison ability. Sabre's site is [url="http://www.users.bigpond.com/qtnt/index.htm"]here[/url].

The backstab rule is as goes:

Anything that is...

A)Smaller than a Human
B)Humanoid

Can be backstabbed. Thus, things lie draons cannot be backstabbed.

You didn't backstab him, you backscratched him.
