    [​IMG] Help! I need some hints for conquering the spidernest(according to D&D rules). While my mage casts aerea spells (e.g. entangle) the swordspiders eat up my archers. :mad:

    [​IMG] I used a couple of fireball-spells centered in the far end of the room to injure the enemies (which is not yet visible). The rest I managed with my warriors. Make sure not to reveal more of the room than when you came in(or else some spiders and ettercaps will spot you and attack, take them one at a time). It worked for me!

    You can also get a great sword as a part of the quest on that map. It's called Spider's Bane and will assist you much in your battles with the spider kin.

    I prefer to stand outside the cave and cast every spell I can to make my party better-after I summon a bunch of skeletons. So then you should have a small army of strengthened warriors to lead the attack, with spellcasters and archers as support. A mage /w mirror image is good for taking a few hits early on.

    That's odd. Maybe I was thinking of what I wanted to do at the time rather than what I actually ended up doing...

    [​IMG] I used a single mage to kill em'
    Cast invisibilty on thy self, then walk in with stinking cloud, then cast a few fireballs with a few magic missiles to knock out most of the enemies then walk out, get the rest of the group then walk in and kick ass...
