Fortress

Post by Mister Popo »

I'm in the fortress of regrets and I'm a mage, and I'm having problems as I greater shadows are kicking my ass.

I could handle a couple (10 at most) by casting Chromatic Orb but now there spent and I can't rest and just please help!

What can I do? Any tips!?

SPOILER

Cloud Kill (I think that's the name) works great against Greater Shadows. Also, the one of the charm which cast the Cloud is useful. (I'm sorry I can't remember the name) Just wait to be surrounded, use one charm, then you'll see you are standing alone again. :)

I think you mean the Abyssal Pipe. Definitely worth the purchase. :)

Yeah Fable, thought that was what was meant.

BTW, do you know what a Scent of the Storm spray does?

I used buffing spells to protect the Nameless One from physical attacks, then I let the Shadows surround him, and then cast Blacksphere, which immobilized them 90% of the time. You can try to kill them with other spells, or if the Nameless One has decent melee skills, you can kill them while they're frozen, or you can simply run until they can't follow you.
