Stronger weapon?
Posted: Mon May 31, 2021 1:39 pm
I am new to the game, just downloaded it a month ago or so. It is a fun little game.
Now I am more or less stuck trying to do the wizard tower. Guardians I can manage with firebolt but wizards are the problem - as soon as there are more than one of them. They seem to take 75-100 swings of my sword to kill, meaning the other two will have plenty of time to kill me with firebolts. I have maxed melee and strength and cast giant strength but I am still doing very little damage to them. An occasional critical will hurt them a little but it is not uncommon to do either no damage or just 1-2 points per hit. Not a problem if there is only one - just tedious - but despite a willpower potion and regeneration two others shooting firebolts that long will do it.
I am still using the uncommon sword of the captain (10-18 damage, +6 will, +6 defence) I found a long, long time ago. SInce then I have found much better armour amulets and rings but not weapons. I have found a slightly better flail, warhammer or whatever but it is two handed and losing my shield is not worth it.
Is this just bad luck and I should get back to grinding the hard tunnels or possibly mines or dragon caves or is this the best weapon there is? Happy to do the grinding but I have now been doing that quite a while without any improvement and I am starting to question if there actually is anything better.
