Nemelex plays tricks
I would not want a nicely started character destroyed by accidental summoning of a hostile balrug.
- What dangers did you encounter with Nemelex?
- What strategies minimize such dangers?
Here's a some story of my experiences: I lost one necromancer of Nemelex at Vault 8 due my own stupidity.. Started just using the decks and blinking around... I was quite disappointed with decks of escape, but more so with drained hp due legendary decks of destruction and the pain card. That necromancer had absolutely no difficulties getting runes from Swamp, Shoals, and clearing Elves. Earned about twenty summoning decks in the Lair. Nice to deal with uniques. Inspiring. I started another, demonspawn, who was about to get decks of wonder by offering potions, just to test a method someone instructed on these forums. But did not find enough so ended up offering all kinds of stuff. I was at leisure slaughtering orcs at the mines, experimenting the first decks, and... I summon a hostile balrug. Lucky blink+vampire drain hp+teleport combo saved me. Ah, but the Balrug is still here, sweet.
