Very nice post. I thought they changed it so other classes couldn't steal at all while sleeping? They just made it harder than it used to be? n/t

> Felar arbiter AP vs. conjurer with angel and elemental

> 1) zap with aura, barrier, shield... cast protection if applicable... use stoneskin item.
> 2) c 'sleep' Arbiter (assume this works... if not, flee/repeat, or bail out)
> 3) Angel attacks you.
> 4) c 'plague' Arbiter (while tanking the angel)
> 5) flee
> 6) c 'summon' mob*
> 7) Wait a tick. Angel tracks in and attacks. Wait until it pillars, then flee.
> 8) Survey area... summon conjurer into tactically advantageous location. Locked room ideal, room with one-exit in obscure part of the area if nothing better.
> 9) c 'curse' conjurer
> 10) c 'blind' conjurer
> 11) c 'poison' conjurer
> 12) c 'plague' conjurer until he drops his weapon if he's still holding it
> 14) steal potion conjurer;!;!... [repeat until you don't fail... if he's got a transportation in his inventory, you want it]
> 15) If you have time left on the sleep and you think it's doable, kill his elemental. Not really crucial.
> 16) Re-zap barrier.
> 17) Wield a spear if you aren't already.
> 18) Spam trip until conjurer wakes. You've got a good chance of winning here.

> If he's wanted, insert a manacles before he wakes. That's an almost guaranteed kill.

> *There's two ways you can go with the mob. You can summon a big mean mob like Orumous or an elite storm and let it kill the angel. This is your best bet pre-hero. Or, if the angel is a hero lesser archangel or some such, and it might tool an elite storm, you can summon a dryad, which is immune to wrath and electricity, and let it tank the angel indefinitely.
