> Speaking out of my butt, but here goes: > sleep the conjurer right as he enters sleep doesnt work all the time. Is good to have him slept yes.. but the guards will then strike him immediately if criminal.. if not and only has a mercenary.. mercenary will die fast. Angel also does pillar lightening. by time you get conjurer blind plagued and poisoned once.. mercenary is easily dead, and you are finding an angel attacking you, and chaseing you while the conjurer is asleep. Sleeping the angel would be nice, but they wake up near immediately. > autoassist off no matter what you have will die fast from an angel, unless you have something like an earth elemental from the place in underdark. > plague conjurer is good against conji pets.. but the angel is still attacking you. Blind it and it heals itself, anything else it does as well. > run to healer and get ready to rumble would need to do this often. Frellis has alot of life, but that is taken down rather fast. > go back right into angel > blind, curse, plague 3 more times you would still die, even with the conjurer being slept the whole time. Your protections would have to be idiotically nice to be able to do what you suggest
> order all rescue from angel
> summon a couple of big nasty mobs
so you would need to summon the high mobs, then summon the conjurer. The pets would arrive immediately.. you would get your ass handed to you, and hopefully one of them will do an area attack that will make the things strike them. This is all on possibility. Probability that you will be able to do this all the time the conjurer is trying to lash you and an angel is following you even without the conjurer, you do not dodge, parry and shield block are nice, but not near enough. etc.
