Agreed Ron, I've only once bypassed a battle and gone back, and that was
against some truly evil quest orcs on the 5th floor, ---- certainly not
against the drake or the goblin king.
To prove how tough said orcs were, ---- I actually couldn't defeat them
until i'd got to floor 12, even though I had a go after defeating the Goblin
king, and after defeating the drake.
Other than that, I've always gone on a basis of kill everything on current
floor, then move on, drake included.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Hi
I'll agree, I've beaten the Drake many times and with various combos of
races and jobs. Most recently I had the Drake grappled by my ogre brawler
which made for some easy pickings. I dislike some views of oh you have to
do it this way. Also I've never went past the Drake for more XP and came
back. I've always taken it out on the way down. It's a battle you can
win,
though not always an easy one.
Ron

I'm afraid I disagree that this is the only way of beating the drake Sean.
I've done it with parties of monks, mages, druids, fighters, assassins,
bards, rangers and necros, ---- even parties with fairies.
The only jobs I really haven't got to grips with yet are barbarian and
paladin.
there's no need really for a specific job or race, provided you use
scrolls
strategically, remember rules about special attacks, and don't just try
using the same move constantly!
(I actually find it helpful to use two characters for offense only, and
one
to pass out the scrolls and healing potions).
Beware the grue!

no not the drake.
Firstly swords don't cut the drake you need a club.
its probably a good idea to have swords or something of whatever quality
with int and other increases.
scroles work on him to.
The only actual combo without all the new power transfer items are if you
are a ogar.
you need a couple of clubs at about 14 or less dammage 9-14.
one should be grannet and both need to be of some stone.
grate clubs are prefured and skill for duelwield max, and large clubs at
level3 or 4 and flurry max or at level3 or more.
I wouldn't worry to much with armour though a couple rosewood bucklers
would work.
the ogar has quite tough hide but thats how I did him in.
I may try as a drewed or necro with maxed iceblast and a few int items.
maybe.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone here can give me some advice on defeating
the Drake on level 7. I can't get passed him no matter how many times
I try. Basically, here is what I have to work with.
Cassandra --- A human female fighter/necromancer equipt with a long
sword and the best armour I could find for her.
Alair --- a half-elf mail healer/Druid. He is armed with a blackwood
staff and light armour/cloathing.
Dara --- a female half-elf fighter/ranger with bronze armour,
legendary long swords, duel wield at 5, flurry 5, and basically you
don't want to mess with her because your likely to loose a head, arm,
and basically get chopped up in the process.
Lupercus -- My wolf companion.
Undead skeleton orc fighter/mage. He is under Cassandra's control and
was raised from the dead to help out in the battle.
Summoned Animal --- any bat, wolf, or rat I can summon to the battle
ground to fight the Drake.
As you can see I've got what I thought was a good party. I can really
kick the crap out of the Drake, but not enough to actually slay the
dragon. When he hits me with a fire attack everyone takes heavy damage
and most of my party members usually wind up dead with several limbs
missing. In the last major fight Casssandra lost a leg, arm, and ended
up dying after the Drake bit her head off, and then spit it out on the
floor. Its like impossible to take him down without being malled or
roasted to death. Any suggestions/help?
