I'm stuck on level 15 in single play. I am constantly being pummeled by Azure Drakes and Cabalists and I don't know what to do. I have heard the Golem spell might work, but I don't have it. Either group on their own isn't bad, but they always seem to get me in mixed groups. I'm playing a Level 23 Warrior. Any advice would be appreciated as I'm getting my butt truly kicked!!!!!

The correct responce to the question is to.... use guardian to test rooms ahead of you, if they fire into the room it has monsters, if you here grunts then the monsters are hurt by fire, no grunts better then they hate lightning, lure out in small groups or single monsters, use corridors to line up kills, have a safe line of retreat and a town portal cast away from the stairs.... or if worst comes to worst start a new game to replay the cats or caves to get what you need. -- Silverlock Household Pests?

I was just creeping through the level, taking on guardians+fire drakes one or a few at a time, managing reasonably well. Then I came across a room with about twenty guardians in it, and I was out of health/mana potions, so I decided to run. Unfortunately I ran the wrong way - the level was a bit of a maze, and I kept taking wrong turns to places I hadn't been before. In the end, I came to a dead end and there were about fifty guardians + drakes breathing down my neck, so I decided to start a new game with my character. I was playing a rogue, so I didn't really have a powerful enough spell to fight my way through. Robert Jackson

As a Warrior, I found FireWall to be the best spell available. Cast it directly on the Cabalists and listen to them fry. Another solution is to retreat slightly around a corner whenever you meet both. The Drakes should follow fast and give you a few moment to kill them before the Cabalists find you again. Don't go chasing Cabalists into areas you haven't been before, duck behind walls instead. You need to make sure you are capable of dishing out lots of damage *fast* (usually a bastard or broad sword is best--I used Griswold's Sword). You might also try getting some resistance items. I remember finding that evey 30% resistance was very useful. -- David Kass Caltech Grad Student E-Mail: dk...@cco.caltech.edu Planetary Science Research: dk...@venus1.gps.caltech.edu

you would want to move in slow, one space at a time, when one spots you , backup to were you came in at , take him out, go for more. Save often, in multiplay, make sure you set a portal a distance form the stairs, so the monsters will follow you away from your stuff incase you die Unicron -- **** The Truth Is Out There, But You Will Never Find It! ****
