I have discovered something. I really, really, really really hate those hobgoblins! <Grin> Best Regards, Hayden -----Original Message----- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of dark Sent: Sunday, February 28, 2010 7:24 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake. 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!
