Help against Improved Illasera

Remove all ads!

My solo assassin is having some troubles against Improved Illasera, and I need some help.

My strategy so far has been to cast Absolute Immunity before the battle (only have time for 1 spell on my saves) then when the battle begins I cast Improved Aclarity then Timestop, then a few lower resistance on Illasera. After that I dont know what to do, because whichever spell I cast on her she doesent die (I dont have acsess to Imprisonment). What should I do? The last time I casted simuclarum, ran away, cast Tensers Transformation and then I tried casting Slayerchange: Ravager, but first the game doesent recognize it and suddenly the game crashed.

Should I perhaps cast Absolute Immunity, then Imp Aclarity--timestop and then just sneak attack her either from hiding or use assassination?

Any suggestions?

What I would recommend is casting Mislead, hiding your clone buddy, then cast Spell Immunityivination. This way you can continue to backstab Illasera during the Time Stop and you'll probably have time to spare if you string two Time Stops together (scroll might be needed, I don't know what lvl you're at).

After that, those chumps she calls a party will die pretty quick. You might even try a little cat & mouse fun with them (you are an assassin after all.)

 

Actualy I killed her yesterday by using timestop then assassination and then chopping the **** out of her. All her companions left immediatly, so I couldnt have any fun with them. Right now Im having some troubles in my pocket plane, with the first room. I didnt get immunity to normal weapons in hell (why? should I do it again? because I want it) So those bastard elven archers shoot the **** out of me, and always disrupts my spells. Ive only tried once, so I bet I will find a solution

 

I would recomend the third level spell: Protection from Normal Missiles (Or whaterver its called), as many summoned creatures as possible to draw their fire, and a lot of fireballs.

 

Didnt work, their missiles were magical, but I overcame that by changing into the Ravager. Im thinking of making a dualed thief/kensai now, I get the thief up to be able to get "use all items" and perhaps a few "assassination"s then dual to kensai. Pure killing mashine.

 

Why just don't go with a Kensai/Thief? Even in a solo game you won't have much fun with a Thief/Kensai the way you describe him. Besides, whithout Shadow Keeper you can't duall into a kit.

 

Well I just happend to have SK.


But I probably wont make a new character, I only enjoy making characters but when it comes the the actual game itself I just loose my enthusiasm

 

I don't think the Improved Illasera is worth the effort. Have you ever checked what effects her always hitting arrows have? Or should I say: does not have...

@ Bahir the Red

Just get to the Watchers Keep next; everything else is pretty much the regular hack'n'slash...

 

^^^ That's how I beat her for my review of Ascension. I think my character was a Berserker/Cleric (I can't remember exactly.) and I just followed her as closely as possible with the Boots of Speed and Improved Haste. Also I kept all my characters off the the north-west because she never seems to go up there.
