CiP: Djinni Fire Elementalist of Sif Muna

Friday, 14th February 2014, 20:59 by skjarl

Had some VERY rough spots as I made my way to the Lair that wound up giving me mutations from desperate potion drinking (was at 1 HP from poison while trying to find a cure potion). Also got kicked around pretty hard by a ghost, phantom, and a pack of orcs. Another time I nearly died was when I discovered the horrible nerf to Swiftness while using it to escape a Yak. Why was this implemented? @___@

Anyway, if anyone has suggestions on this character, I am all ears. Favorite things about Fire Elementalists so far: sticky flame, fireball, and conjure flame.

I would train some Dodging now (it is almost a must if you want to use Sticky Flame relatively safe) and wouldn't use that chaos weapon, it is very dangerous to use. It is suboptimal to train weapon skill when you can't fight dangerous monsters because of too weak defenses. I would not learn Ens. Hib. on the character.

I will train some dodging. As for the staff, I am using it to train staves for now and only melee with it when I must or vs weak monsters. It's a risk, but one that I am fully aware of. Ensorcelled hibernation was an accident. I'll remove it when I need the spell levels for something else. The few casts I have with it was just me messing around.

Guuuufffffff. I turned a corner and was netted by Harold. Fannar was about 2 steps below him. Bad day to be me. I managed to escape by using a teleportation scroll, but that's going to be a tough nut to crack. Fannar is no joke under normal circumstances, triply so for a djinni. At least Harold won't stomp on my face with his fire bolt spell this time.
