> 1. do not allow necro sleep you. - they are prety easy to kill on low levels. I suppose this is the best idea, but shit happenes and they get there sleep spell off. bummer. *frown* > 2. wear some +str and -saves vs spell - the more the better, Well the plus str idea doesn't work, they can cast multi crimson scourges at one time caused me a wopping -21 str (not including weaken, or posison). I don't care how much plus str items you wear, it just won't help. > 3. have some usefull potisons (cure blindness,return) in your inventory Return potions don't work at all, because you are unclean to the gods and you will not be able to recall. I think teleport potions would serve you better. Yeah cure blind potions are nice, but hell it's so easy for them to just cast blind on you again. And how many potion can you carry? > well I have carried return,herbal and green potions all the time. > 4. Hint: try to prevent them from fleeing. Well this part is the pain because if they get their spells of, I'm usually too weak to wield any weapons. And I'm doing most of the fleeing. Don't get me wrong your ideas are all very good ones if you can get them to work more power to you! Peace out!
