YASD - Krakens & stone walls, curse you!

My poor purple DrAE got mangled by a kraken. What makes this so frustrating is two things; first, "rabble rabble too hard" complaint that the kraken is basically an executioner with more HP; extending tentacles in the Shoals means that there's almost no way to escape beyond teleportation, and by then it's too late. Second frustration (though more hilarious), I tried digging my way through one of the Shoals' trademark walls - lo and behold I hit 1 of 2 undiggable stone walls in the middle, these 2 out of roughly 20 total.

Imagine my dismay, but no need to imagine!

And lastly, draconians still aren't that good. Even if you're a purple and a spellcaster. No helmet, gloves, boots or buckler in exchange for what? Anti magic breath and average aptitudes across the board. Pfft.

Re: YASD - Krakens & stone walls, curse you!

Thanks for image warning looks kraken got significantly beefed up in trunk. Any idea what is the max range of those tentacles ?
The flail fails to defends itself.
You open the flail like a pillowcase!!!

Re: YASD - Krakens & stone walls, curse you!

I can't prove anything, but I suspect that as long as the head is in sight, the tentacles can get you.

Re: YASD - Krakens & stone walls, curse you!

I have had a couple of run-ins with trunkenkrakens now, and I think they're awesome!

You just have to treat them with respect.

A lot of respect.

Poison seems pretty effective. Also running away a lot.

(Put it this way, mistaking them for 0.7 krakens is a mistake you only make once!)
I am sure I played flawflessly. This was an utmost unfair death. -- gorbeh

Return to YASD! YAVP! and characters in progress too
