Newb help, please

Post by timmermac » Sat Jul 30, 2011 6:41 pm

I started playing this mod recently, using the D2SE plugin for it. I need help figuring out how to deal with the monsters in the first mystery cave that you enter from the Blood Moor. I always play a bowazon, so tips for that would be helpful. My main problem is the super-quillrats with the glowing aura underneath that spawn in that cave. They routinely monkeystomp me into a quivering pile of goo.

that is normal with every character i guess. Me too i had alot of problems aganist those, sadly bowzon is good after get her a decent level and when get a nice support abilities. The answer to your question is simple anyway. Level untill level 8 and get a javelin merc. then play smart and stay behind her or hide untill she don't clean the mob group. is an effective tactic even aganist those nasty bear since if you kill them they put a volcano under your As* and prolly is game over (still have to move around alot becaiuse merc need to be near but not near near since volcano have a bit area of damage). Ofc drink boost potion and farming the emotion for increase the dextery (and the defense since are connected) on fav charm is alwais a good idea.

bowazon is one of the fastest char to develop:) just increase you dmg and armor + lil bit crit and some potions will do the job

If this sound too complicated - buy some booster potions from Akara and you will be able to run then with no problem :)
