Really? I think I will have a look inside and try to find that secret area.

And yeah, I know now, probably still going to take Dark Magic to expert for Purge and Sleep. As for skills, my first party is at level 27 halfway through act 3 and just managed to GM three skills, so we will see how it goes :)

Storyfag: Yeah, the knight model from Heroes 6 is used quite a lot in this game, same with the Stonehelm guard one from Dark Messiah. The biggest problem in that sense was the town mayor and harbourmaster. Why that guy has a full set of plate armor I will never know.

3. Killin' wolves and exploring caves

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-2-17-32-5_zpsceb5d4c2.jpg


Last time, our violent socipaths heroes just finished slaughtering every spider in Sorpigal and below it.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Elrath be praised! This vile den of is nearly cleansed-

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
What do you mean "nearly"? We killed all of them, searched every corner

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Alas, my heathen friend, you are wrong. Elrath's work here is not yet done. Elrath's light showed me the way to one last spawn of darkness located in this cursed place. The Dragon's will is certain, we are to bathe that creature in his purifying light, then cleanse it's taint from this world forevermore.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
I wasn't aware the church was this - EXTREME.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
You have much to learn, young crusader. Perhaps one day, you shall serve the inquisition as a Vindicator. Paladins dispense Elrath's mercy and help whenever they can while pursuing their impossible quest, but I found that the biggest mercy anyone can grant is to deliver Elrath's justice upon evildoers.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
What she meant was - find that spider and kill it. Then take its stuff.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Spiders have stuff? Seem strange. They no pockets. That is completely illogical and defies laws of the universe.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Of course, where do you think we got all of those antidotes and potions from, ork?

Wait, you looted them from their corpses? Like from inside them?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, they must have stuck in their digestive tract once they ate some other raider. Probably someone Maximus sent before us.

MicoSelvaGreenIcon_zpsdce8a2ba.jpg
...I think I am gonna throw up.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Oh yeah, says mister "spider burger".

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
...but they were tasty.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-38-30_zpsef954e9b.jpg


Anyway, let's turn back...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-41-39_zpsb24dc5cb.jpg


MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
"Hmm, what was that?"

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Our goal. This is where the fiend dwells.

...and find the secret here. we can see it since rosalie gives us the ability. Otherwise we would have to use Whispering Shadows or some other NPC. They come in three varieties, each requiring different attribute to open them up. These cracks un the wall need Might, for example.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-42-13_zps90de6520.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Pariah smash!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-42-27_zpsa1081796.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Yeah!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-43-2_zps7a8c7485.jpg


A spider greets us immediately, but a little fire is all it takes to bring him down.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Blessed Elrath, may you have mercy on this monster, for I did not.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, now let's loot shit!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-43-42_zpsa784df07.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
WTF is this?

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Such is the fate of all heretics who consort with vile forces beyond their understanding.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
...spiders?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-44-2_zps8494d192.jpg


We find a journal page on his corpse.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
And here you see the wisdom of the inquisition. Were the people of this town smarter and done their good duty of burning this heretic on the stake when they had the chance none of this would have happened in the first place.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Well, atleast now we know how those spiders got here in the first place.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, I always knew those spider-worshipping weirdos from House of Eterna were nuts. Now I have the proof. Good riddance, Silver Cities are better off with another necromancer dead.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Didn't you leave that place because it was too restrictive for the Free Cities? We met in Hammerfall, right?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Once an Al-Safir girl, always an Al-Safir girl.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-43-20_zps6e5e882d.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, sweet treasure. Come to mama.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-44-50_zpsfa95eb58.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Aww, just some junk and a stupid magical crossbow-

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Dibs on that!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-45-4_zps88e5a636.jpg


I haven't shown it before, so here is the complete map of the spider dungeon, completely with the secret room. Yeah, very small, boring and easy for the most part, but don't worry, it gets better quickly.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-45-15_zps47eb7f4b.jpg


Finally, it's time to leave. Through the nwly discovered secred staircase in the secret room.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-45-46_zpsa48a32c0.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Hey, this is that abandoned house we wanted to loot earlier! Must have been the residence of our cultist.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
We should burn this wretched den in the name of Elrath!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
You said it, sister! Let's do this! Fire-

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Ancestors, what are those two sociopathic individuals doing. i have to stop them before they burn the whole town. Hold! Maximus not like that.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Yeah, stop darling. We don't want the ork captain of the watch mad at us. Not to mention the whole city. I would like to stay on the good terms with the townsfolk.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Aww...

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
I'm disappointed in you, sir Pariah. I thought you were taking your duty to Elrath more devoutly and tried to lead these three heathens into the dragons light. But now I see you need some guidance yourself. The inquisition shall provide it if you need some help understanding our methods in spreading Elrath's light.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
...let's just go. And sorry for doubting Elrath, sister Rosalie. It shall not happen again. Please don't tell the inquisition...

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Who cares, Ylath is better anyway. Started worshipping him in Hammerfall and never looked back. He lets me zap things with lightning and gives me the freedom to choose how to use it. That's all I ask from a Dragon God.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Bah, humans and their squabbles. Ylath, Elrath, you keep changing them all the time, but we dwarves still worship our lord Arkath, the Dragon God of Fire, because we know he is the only true god for us. If you were content like us you wouldn't have two gods but one.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Religious conflicts. This isn't going to end well. Let me defuse the situation. We orcs revere ancetors. We worship no dragon. Mother Earth and Father Sky worthy to follow. But all things need reverence. Tolerance. For all is one. Ok, that sounded better in my head...

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
What?

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Just some heretical gibberish from the pagan demonspawn, like I suspected. Soon he shall know the wrath of Elrath-

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Easy there girl, let's just go to Maximus and get out of this shithole. Then we can go and bring the wrath of Elrath upon those thieves like you wanted.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
...fine.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-8-39_zps7cd63e90.jpg


On the way to Maximus, we make a short detour to give harbourmaster his treasure.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Here it is, now give us half of the money.

:salute:Sure, here it is.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Wait, 150 gold?

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
That's the whole treasure?

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Must been lousy smuggler.

:salute:Hey, there is a reason I am not continuing the family tradition, you know? "I can't believe this was a fortune for my ancestor."

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-10-15_zpscd625804.jpg


And finally, still early in the morning we get back to Maximus for our next assigment. Also asking him about his past.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Wait, they let an orc join the tournament? I alway knew the Empire was full of fucking liberals.

225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
:nocountryforshitposters:What did you say?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
...nothing.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-10-34_zps5d687ad6.jpg


225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
Anyway, since you are here, here is the next important mission.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
I hope it doesn't involve spiders.

225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
Don't worry, this time it's snakes.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
We are not here to play fucking pest control, ok? First spiders, now snakes, do it yourself.

225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
These are giant snakes, who can talk, cast spells, wielding multiple samurai swords in their four arms and have overcomplicated tea rituals. Better?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
...I guess.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-10-54_zpsb0e0577d.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-11-11_zpsc7dfe16e.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-11-24_zpsb974ed76.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
So, those Wreckers occupy lighthouses? Why is that such a big deal? The weather seems perpetualy sunny, I am sure they will leave soon. And the only one who sails here is Christian anyway.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, and if he crashes with his ship on the cliffs and dies, good riddance.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
That's not what I meant-

225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
SILENCE! Do you want to finish the main quest and get to Karthal or no?

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Can't we just send those ashes there by mail?

225px-Maximustcm2924383.jpg
NO! Now get out and kill some nagas.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Some epic quest we have. Okay guys, let's hit the inn and set of in the morning.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-13-9_zpse748e118.jpg


And so we do. When resting in the inn you gain Well Rested buff for 200 rounds, which increases your stats by 10 percent. If we hired Kengi we would get that buff on normal resting aswell, but we are too poor for that.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Alright, everyone, today is the day when we leave this lightforsaken place behind us and set out for new horizons!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
YEAAAH!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-7-13_zps325e6929.jpg


We just stop by the training center to teach Krivolina Expert Air Magic...

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Well, thanks for the training, but I am kinda surprised you are the Air Magic expert. I expected a mage...

:bounce:Of course it's me, beautiful maiden. I learned Air Magic from pa to continue in our family tradition of croosbow humping.

output_xpU9ww_zps4be8a6bd.gif


:bounce:Wanna learn this too? I will even teach you for free, but we need some quiet, secluded place to get the right "atmosphere", if you know what I mean:smug:

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
........no.

After that experience, our party wisely ignores any further input from Aldin and gets expert training in axes for MicoSelva and swords for Pariah from Enora.

:oops:"You are now expert with swords. If you want to learn more, I heard the new governor is a master swordsman"

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Sweet! He will make me a paladin, get us to Karthal and teach me Master level in swords! We have to get to that guy, he seems to be so cool.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Sure, so long as it's far away from this place and especially from that guy.

:bounce:Oh, you will be back, they always crawl back to Aldin at some point, begging for more!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Guys, lets go or I am gonna barf and then beat that fool over the head with his own crossbow.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
You are seriously considering touching that thing?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
...good point.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-15-7_zps418cb75a.jpg


With the tutorial complete and the spider queen dead, guards no longer block the exit from the city and allow us to pass onwards.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-15-19_zps74eb75a5.jpg


In other words, what are we waiting for?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-36-50_zps994b96bf.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-37-4_zps458a4513.jpg


And so we make our first steps on the overworld map, with the narrator pitching in just as the loading screen fades.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-37-23_zps4af59021.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-37-37_zpscd2fba18.jpg


Let's take a nice walk around the countryside. The shipwreck on the horizon is visitable and contains a relic, but we lack to ability to walk in ankle-deep water walk on water for now, so let's ignore it.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
"Ah yes, running on Mother Earth, under the Father Sky."

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Yes, we are finally out of that wretched dump. Let's find something to kill, I need to vent out my rage.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
I agree, preferably not a spider. I had enough of these things foe a lifetime.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-38-39_zps3811553c.jpg


As they near the lighthouse, the sun starts to set and the monster-detecting crystal light up. Also, the worst dialogue line ever gets repeated about a dozen of times.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
"Looks like they smelled us. Who forgot to take a bath?"

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
"Looks lik' thay smelled us. Wha forgot tae tak' a bath?"

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
:killit:

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-38-50_zpsf8d0eb1a.jpg


And because we didn't have enough of spiders already, the first enemies we encounter are spiders.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-39-18_zps3cbb63dd.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-39-33_zps9d23c3fa.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-41-46_zps28827e17.jpg


Let's just kill them all.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Tired of fucking spiders. Something new, please?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-42-23_zps3d4a5d6e.jpg


The spiders seem to have been guarding this hastily buried treasure. We get some gold and a bunch of useless white items to sell.


MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-41-58_zps5e4c4d57.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Portmeyron is the place where the governor lives, right? Let's go there and get my paladin promotion and master sword skill!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Are you sure he is going to have time to train you and won't be busy with the civil war going on?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Nah, I am sure he will find the time for such a talented student.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-42-45_zps26ca3b45.jpg


This landscape doesn't seem very welcoming. There are some more spiders in the back and right, but being tired of them I leave them to live for now and head to the crystal instead.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-43-10_zps638e23e5.jpg


After touching this crystal the whole party gets a resistance buff against water magic lasting for 250 rounds. Handy against those nagas we are going to fight.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-42-57_zpsc9df2474.jpg


Heading north, we find another full heal fountain and replenish our strenght.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-43-20_zps1d381c9c.jpg


Soon, night falls and all the spiders disappear. Also:

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
"Looks like they smelled us. Who forgot to take a bath?"

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
"Looks lik' thay smelled us. Wha forgot tae tak' a bath?"

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-43-51_zpsd9b90fd0.jpg


They disappear, only to be replaced by wolves, two of which spaw right in front of us.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-44-18_zpsb212a0a8.jpg


They are about as challenging as the spiders, except they can't poison you.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Boooring.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-44-53_zps9fd62e36.jpg


And so we move on to-

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
"Looks like they smelled us. Who forgot to take a bath?"

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
"Looks lik' thay smelled us. Wha forgot tae tak' a bath?"

Can you SHUT UP?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-45-1_zps5a97137b.jpg


Atleast we get a treasure chest out of this.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-45-43_zpsac28588c.jpg


We also find this barrel, which-

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
"Looks like they smelled us. Who forgot to take a bath?"

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
"Looks lik' thay smelled us. Wha forgot tae tak' a bath?"

YES, YES, I GET IT! THERE'S A SPIDER INSIDE, WOULD YOU SHUT UP?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-45-42_zps0ee50f23.jpg


And that's that. Now on to-

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
"Looks lik' thay smelled us. Wha-"

:mob:

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Sorry laddie.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-46-11_zpsc42ec796.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-46-31_zps0b6fba99.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-47-39_zpsf809c6eb.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-48-1_zps7781d57a.jpg


We spend the rest of the night shooting wolves, until we finally kill them all. The shrine for Orlene's Flowers is near, but I forgot about it. Gonna do it later.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-50-24_zps8fa07155.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Hey, let's check out that merchant wagon over there, maybe we can loot them and blame it on the brigands.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Look, I know we just spent 10 hours slaughtering everything that moves and everyone calls us raiders, but that doesn't mean we are some kind of gang, ok?

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Not to mention I would be forced to cleanse you from this world by the will of Elrath himself.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
...also that...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-50-51_zps65f3de45.jpg


Since looting it isn't an option because Rosalie would kill us we just go in for some early shopping.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Are you sure we are all going to fit in there? Not to mention the merchant and his goods?

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
Arkeus too big for tiny door.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Don't worry, I am sure it's bigger on the inside.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-51-19_zps3ee49693.jpg


MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
See?

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
Orc want to learn to channel Earth Mother better. Human help?

:obviously:Sure, you seem like a talented young orc. Here, you are now an expert. If you want to become a master, finish ACT 1 first. If you want Expert in Water Magic, finish the Act 1 first. If you want to be an expert in spears, finish Act 1-

Suffice to say, I really think it would be better if they didn't block off the rest of the world until the end of Act 1.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-51-37_zps25e439ea.jpg


Atleast we have a place to sell all that useless junk we collected.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
You know, out here in the open, you seem quite, vulnerable-

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Elrath, grant me strenght to smite these sinners-

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
No, no, no, I mean, you should probably move closer to Prtmeyron to avoid being attacked by bandits. Not to Sorpigal though, that place is full of spiders and assholes.

:hmmm:Actually, we were already attacked by bandits. They were led by someone named Luke. He was the nicest bandit ever.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Isn't that the guy the crusader chick wanted us to kill or redeem?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-52-29_zps6c8a3c62.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
He does seem like a nice guy.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
Boy not have a heart of bandit. He be fighting his true nature.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Meh, those bandits are pussies. Shouldn't be that hard to slaughter them all.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
No matter what, justice demands that he be destroyed utterly and his soul condemned to the deepest pits of Sheogh along with the rest of those evildoers.

:hmmm:Are you going to buy something?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Oh right, sorry.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-54-20_zps3c7b6281.jpg


The best thing he has are two potions that raise maximum mana and HP, but we aren't even close enough to afford even one, as they cost 7500 each. After selling all of our white trash we continue on our merry way towards Portmeyron.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-55-10_zps831e4acc.jpg


We find some soldiers outside of the castle to greet us.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Look, it seem the governor knows we are coming to visit him. He sent his soldiers to greet us and make sure his next talented pupil arrives to him safely. Hello there! Yeah, it's us! The famous raiders!

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
They not friendly.

:salute:Kill them all, the true governor demands it!

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
What the-

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-55-27_zpsdec849d4.jpg


And so we get attacked by a bunch of dudes in plate armour hanging around the castle.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
You were right, Pariah. The governor must have known you were coming, so he sent his soldiers to eliminate you before you could infect him with stupid. :troll:

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Told you he doesn't want to train you, laddie. Or you already failed even before starting.:troll:

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Ha Ha, very funny guys. If you want to joke about this, atleast make sure its not totally lame. But if he really didn't want to see me, he could atleast tell me, not send a bunch of guys to kill me.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
He didn't even call you before he broke up with you, huh?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Seriously, are you even trying?


You know, I thought they were bandits, but with them being called Militia, I am not so sure anymore. Maybe they are the rebel troops? Or just bandits masquerading as soldiers.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
I doubt these are the governors men. They appear to be part of the same gang you are supposed to help me put an end to. Or some rebel soldier, either way, they shall be punished for their treatchery!
PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
You sure? The governor doesn't want to kill me?:desu:

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Yeah yeah, he totally loves and will give you a big kiss once you get to the castle and into his pants. Happy now?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png

They don't even manage to reach us until the end, since I kept spamming roots and Gust of Wind and by the time he gets a couple of swings in he is dead.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Hell yeah! Killing humans and making them scream in agony is so much better then murdering stupid wolves or spiders.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Indeed it brings great joy to punish the wicked and cast them into the fiery abyss.

I worry about you, you know.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-58-44_zps14c96718.jpg


With those guys out of the way, surely there is nothing that will prevent us from talking to the governor...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-19-58-56_zpsf3d4b0dc.jpg


...except the plot, of course.

:salute:You don't have a scheduled audience with the governor, so get out!

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
But that's why I am here! To meet with the governor and become a paladin! How can we schedule an audience with the governor?

:salute:You can't. The plot says so. Now go slaughter some bandits and get out of my sight.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
:negative:

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Well, that was a waste of time.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-56-42_zps688cd29a.jpg


Might aswell rob him blind if doesn't want to see us. Shouldn't have left the tresure chests outside.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-57-9_zps1855328b.jpg


On our left, we find another roadblock.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-57-21_zpscdbf6d53.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
It's just an overturned cart, can't we slip past it?

:salute:No, it's too dangerous. Stay away from this dangerous cart and go kill some bandits, will you?

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Why does fate seem to keep us from leaving this place and getting to Karthal?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
I think it's just the governor trying to keep Pariah close to him until he is ready to serve as his "squire".

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Hey!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-57-35_zpse5fa48ed.jpg


Seems we need to go to the lighthouse afterall if we want to advance the plot. We could also do the Den of Thieves, which is actually easier, but I heard there is a bug if you do that quest before the lighthouse and I want to keep Rosalie to detect secrets for me as long as possible.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-57-46_zps5047b5f3.jpg


Moving towards the Lighthouse, our heroes are tired after marching 20 hours without rest and need to camp. As night approaches, ghostly spiders appear all around us.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-58-7_zps48bae3ac.jpg


One of them pops up and attacks them. He is surprisingly tough and has a mana leech ability.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Great, first spiders, now ghostly spiders.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Maybe there will be zombie spiders further ahead.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-21-57-58_zpsacd60ccc.jpg


Atleast we get the stuff it was guarding.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-20-1-11_zps29d3a585.jpg


Spiders seem to be a running theme of act 1.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-20-2-51_zps7ed823b2.jpg


Dangerous cave? I am sure nothings too dangerous for the Codex party. Bring it on!:yeah:

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-20-3-49_zps88308e73.jpg


MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png~c100
Oh look, a miniboss! Lucky us, we are gonna get relics!

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png~c100
This bad idea. Should not disturb cyclops.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png~c100
Coward. Let's just smoke this stupid cyclops and-

:hmmm:Well, that sucked.

I didn't have time to play the game for the past week, so I am going to make a small update from the screens I have up until the lighthouse. It shouldn't be long before the next one, where we shall surely die horribly, as that place was hard even on adventurer.

Next up: Lighthouse of Fail and Despair

Let's pretend that never happened and move on..

If our party was more inteligent, they would read the warning sign at the entrance and stayed the fuck away. Let's do so now.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-48-11_zpsb83e5923.jpg


Look at some hobo shed...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-48-42_zps0c76bf37.jpg


...and finally reach our destination...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-49-12_zpscfa80c59.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-49-47_zps3dffb473.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-49-48_zpsc60dffe5.jpg


...after killing some more spiders and wolves, of course, because why not.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-50-31_zps7b16ec76.jpg


Then we finally upgrade to killing nagas. Nagas are cool and are my favorite addition from Heroes 6 (conflux is the worst addition of that game). So, let's kill them all and take their stuff.

:thumbsup:Konichiwa, my dear raiders. I am afraid we will have to kill you all. Do you want to engage in a tea ceremony before our duel?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Sorry, no time. We have a quota of dead bodies to fill by the end of the night.

:thumbsup:Saa, that's a shame. Well then, let's proceed straight to the formal boasting and threath. Let me start with- Arrrgh, NOOOOO! WHHHHYYYYYYYY!!!!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Woohoo, critical hit baby!

Sadly, the real duel did not go along so smoothly. Kenshi are the first tough enemy we encounter (not counting those Moonsilk Spiders) and we are going to meet a lot of them. Along with priestesses, who are even worse.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-52-51_zpsffb7728b.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-53-16_zpsb26453d2.jpg


Let's not keep them waiting, shall we?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-54-16_zps6b9ec164.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
It's so blue in here, no wonder the nagas like it.


MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-56-26_zps7666d396.jpg


And here is the interior, with the kenshi on the other side of that bridge striking a dramatic pose to scare us off.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Not sure why did the ancient Shantiri need those two bottomless pits in their lighthouse.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
I am sure they had their reasons. Swimming pools, perhaps?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-56-37_zpsb3e3cd17.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Greetings there, noble samurai nagas. We came here on behalf of Maximus, captain of the watch in Sorpigal-by-the-sea. You see, your presence here is in violation of the Imperial law and are guilty of breaking and entering aswell as squatting in a government property. You have 24 hours to clear the premises, otherwise we shall use deadly force. But I am sure that as long as you are reasonable we can come to some kind of agreement and everything can be resolved peacefully and-

:thumbsup:Kill the land dwellers!

:oops:Yessss! Sacrifice them to the goddess!

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Ok, fuck this. Let's show them how the Empire takes to samurai nagas invading our property. For the Empress!

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Indeed, we shall cleanse this ruin of pagan beasts in the name of Holy Falcon Empire!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Sure, whatever. Let's go kill stuff.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Father sky, grant us strength to do battle! We shall crush our enemies, paint the ground with their blood and present you with their skulls!

images
That's right, show those snakes what happens when you challenge the Empire, my subjects!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Wrong game, bro. Go back to your popamole shit and leave this alone.

images
Aww.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Now, let's pop us some nagas.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-57-9_zpsc36b8448.jpg


We have a few rounds free to deal with the Kenshi, until the priestess on the left gets to a position she can attack us from. Nagas have resistance to water, but a weakness to fire, so a Firebolt spell will be handy here. Kenshi's ability makes it deal more damage the more attacks hit it. Not as bad as the one the elite versions have which gives them extra attacks for evaded/blocked attacks, but it still hurts. Gust of wind proves handy against it.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-57-21_zpsc0e69a73.jpg


By that time the priestess slithers to position behind the abyss where we can't reach her and unleashess a torrent of ice shards against us. The blue glow means she enchanted herself with Liquid Membrane (the single best spell in the game), which is a lot better then if she cast it on the Kenshi. She is immune to mind affecting spells like sleep, terror or the spell which harms casters every time they use mana (for some reason) aswell and like all casters she has high resistances.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-57-24_zpsc623d02a.jpg


So, let's just do the simplest thing and burn shit with our casters...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-58-8_zpsca87462e.jpg


...while Pariah and Micoselva deal with the Kenshi and soon kill it.

:thumbsup:The disgrace...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-57-30_zpsda8af474.jpg


And then turn our attention to the on-going ranged duel with the priestess. I am too lazy to go chasing after her and it would just waste time and make her get a few free ice shards in. Thankfully everyone in our party has some ranged capacity.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-59-3_zps26c5369c.jpg


It could have gone better though, as Arkeus drops during our little duel.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
"Oh no, I do not want to die."

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-59-13_zps91f828b5.jpg


Anyway, enough of this, let her burn in righteous fire to avenge our shaman.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
And so that's the end of that. Someone wake the orc, I think he fell asleep.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
I think he is dying, actually.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Whatever, just heal him or something.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Don't look at me, I would love to, but I don't have any healing spells, as I don't know expert light magic yet.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Seriously? You are the worst paladin ever.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Crusader. The governor didn't promote me yet:negative:

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Whatever. Rosalie, you are a priestess of Elrath. Can't you heal him?

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
The light of Elrath shall not be wasted on heathens and demonspawn.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
*grumbles* Fine then, lets rest.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-22-59-25_zps3c0d0d3c.jpg


After 8 hours of sleeping on the cold stone floor of a naga-infested lighthouse, everyone is as good as new!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-1-9_zps874cf448.jpg


Trying to go through the door at the other end of the bridge just gives us this message. Seems we can't just use the express elevator to the top of the lighthouse just yet.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Sure we can't open it?

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
I am sure, it's locked from the inside and the plot won't let us do that anyway. We have to kill everyone in the lighthouse anyway, so skipping the next few floors straight to the main boss wouldn't be that usefull in this case.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Not to mention all the loot and XP we would miss.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-1-21_zpsa72f7dcc.jpg


While exploring first floor of the lighthouse, another cheesy cynical line gets repeated a lot. The heroic ones are bland, but far less annoying.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
"Ancient ruins? Untouched by centuries? My raider sense is tingling!"

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
"Ancient ruins? Untouched by centuries? Mah raider sense is tinglin`!"

Fortunately it doesn't come into play as much as the "who forgot to take a bath" line.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-1-54_zps3b60203e.jpg


Anyway, let's smash some more barrels.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-2-16_zps88769f40.jpg


At the end of a long hallway sits a lone treasure chest.

admiral-ackbar.jpg


MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-1-32_zps121650f7.jpg


But we care about no traps, we loot everything regardless.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-2-46_zps19dc851e.jpg


Predictably, once we loot it, we get ambushed by a bunch of ninja samurai nagas appearing out of thin air on the other side of the corridor. A common occurence in this game. Could be worse, it could've been priestesses nuking us down while we try to cross the corridor to them before we die.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-2-55_zpsb659a545.jpg


Like this, let's do it ourselves and snipe them before they crawl to us.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-3-6_zpsf1d43f8c.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-3-44_zpsa8b7b1c9.jpg


Well, mission failed.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Why me, why do they always hit me with my 50 HP!

We will consider raising vitality for Krivolina on the next level up. Or just buy some vitality gear and rely on celestial armour.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
The stupid sociopathic mage is dying. Should I save her? Let's be the better person. Orc help stupid evil woman. Cast regeneration.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Ugh... thanks, I guess.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-4-45_zpsce8b8f3c.jpg


Let's finish them off and get out of here.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-4-51_zps5148dd21.jpg


Like this.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-5-21_zps5833e68e.jpg


I smell another ambush.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
"Looks like they smelled US. Who-"

:x

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
:troll:

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-5-28_zps1de89bb0.jpg


Yep, they were just around the corner.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-5-47_zps445028fc.jpg


Let's just murder them for great justice and continue on our merry way to rob this place of all valuables.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-6-54_zps787e22b9.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-6-38_zpsb70132f0.jpg

And almost die in the process.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Ok, seriously, this sucks. I hope those doors behind the corner contain some good treasure.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-8-9_zps2dd82beb.jpg


Instead we find some naga locked in the room.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Fire-

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Wait, I think this one is friendly.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
So what, we have to kill all of the nagas, don't we? Always spoiling our fun.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Speak, friend. Why they capture you?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-8-20_zpsb6d073b0.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Pfft, noob. That would never-

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
It pains me, but it seems we will have to let this pagan go and deal with the cult leader instead. You there, stay here. If Elrath wants you to live, you will live. If not, then you shall perish with the other heretics.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Screw her. I won't let him suffer like this. Regeneration.

:thumbsup:Thank you, kind one. May Shalassa bless you.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Typical, one heathen helps another. Let's not waste anymore time.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-10-19_zps0e25c959.jpg


We find a secret on the wall next to us.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Don't worry guys, I've got this!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-10-6_zps17eb8932.jpg


*MicoSelva is unconcious*

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Or not...

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Regeneration. Try again.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Ok, I've got this now...

*numerous failures and regenerations later*

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-10-26_zpsa53c342c.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Finally, though we would die of hunger before you finished getting your ass kicked over and over like a masochist.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Shut up!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-11-30_zps6b46cbc2.jpg


We of course get ambushed as we make our way from Hamato's cell. Wouldn't be Might and Magic X without ambushes.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-4-23-14-24_zpsb92502ec.jpg


The next floor is upon us!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-7-36_zpsf3ef5762.jpg


And here is the elite version of kenshi. Sadly we can't nuke it from afar, since it's out of range.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-8-4_zps8fbb604d.jpg


So let's just loot the chest next to him.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-8-15_zpsf0d3b373.jpg


And enjoy the beautiful starry sky.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-8-26_zps5ff7f987.jpg


Way to spoil it, dude.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-8-38_zpsdf5ece9e.jpg


It just got worse...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-9-9_zps2faa78b9.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-10-39_zps28359ac5.jpg


We were going to kill them anyway, but they spoiled our view, so now it's personal.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-10-50_zps39e714e4.jpg


Atleast now we can enjoy it fully. Notice how tiny Sorpigal looks from up here.

Next we have a look on our inventory. Should identify all those items soon.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-11-56_zpse552223b.jpg


A lone Kenshi bars our way, this time without Medusa supporting him.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-12-47_zpsf5302456.jpg


As such, he doesn't last long.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-11-34_zpsb68a353a.jpg


Oooh, a teleporter, wonder where it leads.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Are you sure this thing still works properly and won't send us plummeting into the abyss?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Relax, teleporters always work.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-13-29_zpsdee6a388.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
See? It just leads to another snake-dude to kill.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-15-53_zps01768f68.jpg


The night finally ended by the time the naga died, giving us a great view of the still inaccessible part of the world map.

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Look, isn't that Karthal?

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
So close and yet so far away...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-15-43_zps5c81dde3.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-16-58_zpse072c5db.jpg


2 priestesses are always better then one.

:oops::oops:Saa, we do not wish to fight, we are just practicing our dramatic poses for our new action flick.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-17-12_zps86fb92bb.jpg


:oops::oops:So what do you say?

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Kill them all!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-18-26_zpse69c0f78.jpg


And so we do, like always. We can't make exceptions, you know? (Hamzo does not count)

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-18-52_zpsc63b1c6d.jpg


Finaly we make our way to the other side.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-19-5_zpsec250653.jpg


And kill the asshole staring at us at the entrance.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-20-41_zps2cf8c5c1.jpg


And let's drink some more before leaving this floor behind us.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-20-56_zps9fdd0d8b.jpg


There, another down, two to go.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-23-3_zpse607beb0.jpg


We find ourselves in a big, spacious room with a cozy fire before us.

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Ok guys, let's move. No sense in standing around. Let's bust some doors down and-

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-27-56_zps6d74e7f1.jpg



As soon as we open of the doors, two kenshi stand behind it...

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Ok guys, let's not bust down any more doors, ok?

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-44_zps76f319b9.jpg


...while two elite ones ambush us from the other one.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-50_zps911c9fee.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-26-30_zps9dd8f7f5.jpg


It doesn't go well...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-26-40_zps26ac1967.jpg


At all...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-0_zpsac29bb01.jpg


Take 2!

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
I sense an ambush coming our way. Let's smash this wall and hide here.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Such a cunning plan, Pariah, surely we would have perished if not for your genius.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-7_zpsaec49f35.jpg


Sadly I stupidly opened the door further away from our little hideout and got surrounded and...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-43_zpsc2a4fe3b.jpg


Yeah...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-26-41_zps598f8af9.jpg


Take 3!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-28-33_zps2cb589fc.jpg


This time we manage to get to our hideout and keep them at bay with spells and ranged attacks, using our hideout to negate their number advantage.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-28-13_zps226704f2.jpg


Yeah, like this.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-29-43_zps95389023.jpg


Yeah!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-31-50_zps58527d46.jpg


Well-

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-26-41_zps598f8af9.jpg


:hmmm: Sadly, we soon run out of mana and die horribly.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-6_zps7cc188de.jpg


Take 4!

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Hey guys, I have this sudden urge to go back to Sorpigal and go shopping for some new spells and blow everything else on mana potions.

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
You do? That's great, me too:codexisfor:

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Yay shopping!

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Orc like shopping!

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Shopping is good. It pleases Elrath.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-24-17_zps84bb4b41.jpg


Let's just loot the secret chest and go shopping, guys!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-17-4_zps1e50da81.jpg


*One day and 3000 gold later*

PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Wow, those spells and mana potions sure were useful there!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
I know! Wonder how we would fare without that!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
...we wasted all of our precious:keepmymoney:just to kills these guys and get some spells... you kidding me...

Anyway, I am sure everything will go smoothly from there-

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-19-46_zps17f1cafd.jpg

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-22-24_zpseef0545b.jpg


Maybe not...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-8-22-32-6_zpsbf2121ae.jpg


Not at all...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-24-24_zps551cb3cc.jpg


Eventually we manage to deafeat the swarm of priestesses outside and activate the two platforms that turn on the teleporter to the last level.

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-34-23_zpsa55228ab.jpg


After enjoying the great view...

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-35-7_zps7c64e92b.jpg


It's on!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-35-29_zps80547ca4.jpg


PariahIcon_zps22eb42b9.png
Don't worry guys, we got this!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Yeah! We have mana potions and spells!

KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
And we are going to use them.

ArkeusIcon_zps9bfb8df0.png
Father sky blessed us this day.

RosalieIcon_zps69f0acd3.jpg
Elrath himself will make sure of our success.

:thumbsup:Foolish raiders. You don't know about my secret technique! It shall be your undoing!

MicoSelvaIcon_zpsfca0e710.png
Sure, we are really scared. Let's do this!

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-35-57_zps5eea7df7.jpg


KrivolinaIcon_zps97252bb1.png
Yeah, this will be a piece of cake! He is already down to 75 HP just from ranged attacks!

:thumbsup:Muhahahahaha! Pathetic. Don't be so sure of yourselves. Because I unleash-

MightandMagicregXLegacy2014-2-9-0-36-3_zps51fe94ef.jpg


The fuck...

:thumbsup:Gust of Wind no jutsu!

Interesting. Could you stand with your back to a wall, perhaps? Or is it possible to use *your* gust of wind on him like that?
Not really, he can hit you sideways. Knockback doesn't work on bosses. The fight is mostly either hoping for luck that he doesn't knock you off while you quickly take him out, or constantly moving back into the middle, which wastes your turn and makes you eat tons of damage extra damage from him.

going for Mamushi right after Sorpigal :thumbsup:

I thought everyone does that?

Amusing. Will the party prevail? :avatard:

Against gravity? No, as there is no Fly spell in this game. The closest to it is the Air Blessing. Against Mamushi? Quite possibly.

You can't push enemies off the ledges in this game unless they are hovering, so no. This isn't Dark Messiah where kicking was the most powerful weapon you had :D

Any idea why I can't see some of the character icons in this post? O.o
I honestly don't know. Everything is visible for me. Which ones in particular?

Anyway, I decided how to build our party.

Pariah: Grandmaster Swords, Grandmaster Light Magic, Master Shield, Expert Heavy Armor, Expert Warfare
Krivolina: Grandmaster Magical Focus, Grandmaster Air Magic, Grandmaster Primordial Magic, rest goes to Dark Magic (or Fire Magic, not sure yet)
MicoSelva: Grandmaster Axes, Master Dual Wield, Grandmaster Crossbow (because LARPing and it's situationaly useful), Expert Medium Armour, rest goes to Endurance
Arkeus: Grandmaster Earth Magic, Grandmaster Water Magic, Master Magical Focus, Expert Medium Armour (so he can equip the better ones) or Mysticism or Arcane Discipline

Can anyone recommend me some good free alternative to photobucket? The bandwidth limit sucks. Hopefully the rest of the LP should become visible in a few days once the limit resets.

imgur? 's what I used for all my LPs. Unlimited pic amount, though you can only edit the last 255 or so yourself. The rest remain online, if they're viewed at least once every six months. Which is why I read/browse through all my LPs every few months, to make sure my own pictures aren't removed.

5. Pirates vs. Nagas

SzTnJ76.jpg


So yeah, you are not supposed to charge in and start bashing. You are supposed to move around the dreadfully-small area. If you are trapped near the edge, you have to kill him fast, or you are dead.

tFJhads.jpg


Let's move sideways then and intercept him in the middle. We can get a few hits in before he pushes us back again.

ODecMzF.jpg


Like this. Moving up to him at this point is the only thing you can do, because if you move sideways he will also do that, trapping you there, unless you decide to take that free attack he gets. If you are unlucky, then that attack will be "Gust of Wind no Jutsu" and you will just have to get back to him and eat up another one.

FogdHo9.jpg


So then, let's do it. But even if you avoid the insta-death of being pushed over the edge, Mamushi himself is hardly a pushover. As I said, you will eat up a lot of his attacks just to get to him. He hits hard and damages your whole party at once. His special abilities aside from Gust of Wind no Jutsu include Vindictive, which makes him deal more damage the more of your attacks hit him and Retaliation. That one gives him another attack for every one he blocks or dodges. And he does that a lot. No matter if you hit or miss, he still gets something.

MYt6u6P.jpg

SfHo3yW.jpg


The best way to kill him are spells, but then we also need mana for celestial armor and regeneration. So, Krivolina keeps spamming firebolt with occasional icebolt from Arkeus to reduce the number of bonus attacks Mamushi gets.

D2P37ck.jpg

nDCMYhy.jpg


He also gets cool animations.

QtOdDFU.jpg


Nearly at the end and just now I find out that one of the white trash swords we found is actualy better then Pariah's starting sword. Kinda strange that the weakest sword in the game is a Shantiri Gladius, since the other Shantiri stuff starts dropping at a pretty high level.

LjMPd7n.png
Why don't you use that pirate cutlass anyway? Pirates are cool.

R57SrqE.png
Yeah, besides, if anyone can defeat ninjas, it's pirates.

1DB5vNn.png
They be Samurai.

R57SrqE.png
Close enough. Besides, those teleporting ones were definitely ninjas.

eKnxpQB.png
Stop with old memes already. Besides, this is an authentic Shantiri sword. These things are amazing, they have awesome stats and I was really lucky to get it for such a low price-

R57SrqE.png
Stats? 12-16 damage? What is awesome about that?

1DB5vNn.png
I can't believe he actually bought that.
It be fake.

eKnxpQB.png
What?

R57SrqE.png
Well, duh.

eKnxpQB.png
This is the last time I ever go to a pawn shop.

:thumbsup:I am pleased to see my foes bickering like scared children before their deaths, but this ends now!

x5B76P1.jpg


I don't think it would make a difference for our predicament here anyway... Shouldn't have used all of the mana potions save for two a floor earlier.

R57SrqE.png
We aren't going to kill him like this. Quick, just grab that pirate sword and

LjMPd7n.png
A Pirate paladin? That seems weird.

R57SrqE.png
Just let him do that. We need a pirate to beat ninjas-

1DB5vNn.png
Samurai.

R57SrqE.png
Whatever.

eKnxpQB.png
Okay then, I'll try.

XCQgKCq.png
Ahoy, me hearties! Shall we feed 'tis scallywag to the fishes and take his booty?

gbNvnrk.jpg
Sir Pariah? Forgetting something?

XCQgKCq.png
...fer th' glory 'o light 'n Elrath, 'o course! Take 'tis! I’ll cut out yer tongue and feed it to the sharks ye skirt wearing swine smelling samurai ninjas!

*miss*

:thumbsup:Pathetic insults. Should have expected as much from "ye flea ridden landlubbers". Happy now?

XCQgKCq.png
Wait, you guys are pirates?

:thumbsup:Yes, but east asian pirates. We don't talk like that.

XCQgKCq.png
Oh.

R57SrqE.png
Well, shit.

prnUB1P.jpg


1DB5vNn.png
Big snake have mercy?

:thumbsup:No.

1DB5vNn.png
:(

6dOksfx.jpg


Yeah.

NszNQJj.jpg


Since we can't defeat him without some potions and are now completely broke from buying the last batch, the only thing left is to kill some more things and take their stuff. Or dig up some gold and finish a few sidequests. While strolling around the countryside I remembered where the altar you are supposed to put flowers on is and conveniently there was an unguarded buried treasure nearby, which gave me 500 gold and some things to sell.

NhzCVhq.jpg


The XP from completing the quest gave everyone but MicoSelva a level.

LjMPd7n.png
So, why did we go put those stupid flowers here instead of going to kill that Mamushi guy?

1DB5vNn.png
It pleases Mother Earth.

XCQgKCq.png
Yeah and I thought it would bring us some luck in the coming battle.

R57SrqE.png
...where did you get the hat and an eyepatch?

JnCqEzI.jpg


Second try, here we go!

R57SrqE.png
Why did we blow everything on mana potions again?

LjMPd7n.png
They taste good?

bi5EZY3.jpg


It goes about as well as the last time, except we don't run out of mana and are able to maintain the barrage.

BZiV6Rv.jpg


:thumbsup:Foolish raiders, you can't stand against me-

aSjzHRv.jpg


:thumbsup:Ok, you can, but I will still-

cCaKOFt.jpg


:thumbsup:Well then, it seems I will have to resort to summoning the tentacle mons-

oXC7haX.jpg


:thumbsup:Would you stop hitting me in the face whenever I try to intimidate you? It's kinda annoy-

LjMPd7n.png
Nah, I enjoy it too much.

zuaCcAw.jpg


:thumbsup:This is still not the end, raiders! For I use-

LjMPd7n.png
*Firebolt*

:thumbsup:Seriously, knock it off!

LjMPd7n.png
:troll:

1DB5vNn.png
Time for a finishing move.
Entangle!

AVrGSgw.jpg


:thumbsup:What? No- Arrrrghhhh, nooooooo, whyyyyyy, oh my goddnes no, not there, not there-

R57SrqE.png
My, I didn't know nagas had so many orifices. This is definitely enlightening.

LjMPd7n.png
I think those roots created them, actually, once they started tearing him up from the inside.

eKnxpQB.png
Just... put him out of his misery, please?

V79NEJs.jpg


:thumbsup:...thank you...

TyDz9mV.jpg


XCQgKCq.png
Yarr there, matey, that was a good fight. We showed that stinkin' landlubber good!

R57SrqE.png
You aren't a pirate paladin. Just stop.

LjMPd7n.png
I don't think those even exist. Shame though, Pariah could be the first!

gbNvnrk.jpg
Adopting the guise of these filthy evildoers is against everything Elrath stands for. Prepare to be purged from-

eKnxpQB.png
...all right, all right, I'll stop, happy? You were the ones who talked me into it in the first place.

R57SrqE.png
That didn't happen. Also, I thought these guys were ninjas. Turns out they were pirate samurai. Happens.

1DB5vNn.png
Orc think you mean pirate ronin.

R57SrqE.png
Whatever.

LjMPd7n.png
Let's light up the lighthouse and get the hell out of here.

9zFT2Xh.jpg


We can't actually leave until that's completed. During our fight with Mamushi we accidently activated the first one and we need activate them in the right order.

FQMporJ.jpg

jh0XGqI.jpg


The riddle is longer then this, but the other screenshots disappeared, so this is all you get. I am not sure how you are supposed to actually get the right solution from it, but trial and error always works.

VBUCUq2.jpg


Afterwards the lighthouse is ignited again and we can leave through the second teleporter...

uYcEoc9.jpg


...which leads right behind the locked door on the first floor.

78ibcvc.jpg


Well then, let's go back to Maximus and tell him of our success.

fTwyTt5.jpg


eKnxpQB.png
You are going stay squatting at this lighthouse, are you?

1DB5vNn.png
I no think Maximus mind. Hamato no crazy murderous snake.

LjMPd7n.png
Well, if we aren't gonna kill him and take his stuff, then we can atleast take something as a compensation. Hey you! Give us your... tea, or something.

hWoOzQo.jpg

njJZMcE.jpg


This is for a sidequest we won't get until act three.By the time we get to the quest giver we should already have the whole collection. Let's ask him about his sword aswell.

UgQBy6t.jpg

OKU9tLV.jpg

sNFegTj.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
So long as you give us something else then tea as a reward, then sure, we will look for it. We might even return it to you if you give us enough money.

iOwbD4N.jpg


eKnxpQB.png
Finally we are done with this place. Let's report to Maximus.

iTJciBo.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
"Hmpf, and I thought daylife was boring here."

eKnxpQB.png
You'll complain about anything, won't you?

1sJdNnH.jpg


1DB5vNn.png
What be our next mission?

Ky5tE8u.jpg


gbNvnrk.jpg
Quite right, Maximus. We have been stalling long enough. It's time to drown those criminals in the crimson tide of their sinful pasts.

Thanks for the imgur suggestion btw.

6. Let's die horribly from poison: The Sequel - Bandit Edition

xUb903J.jpg


With fresh supplies and the Well Rested buff we depart from Sorpigal to the Shadow Woods, which the bandits call their home.

HGognSj.jpg


The entrance should be near...

KWfgB3A.jpg


Oh yeah, here we go!

tw4TIvo.jpg


eKnxpQB.png
So, where could this hideout be? It must be very well hidden if no one found it yet.

gbNvnrk.jpg
The light of Elrath shall show us the way.

R57SrqE.png
Just follow the corridors, we should reach it eventually.

SwDszhq.jpg


As soon as we step inside we are attacked by two wolves guarding a treasure chest.

8ZdBVzq.jpg


We also find this strange tree.

1DB5vNn.png
Creepy...

eKnxpQB.png
...I think I am going to have nightmares about this...

R57SrqE.png
Is it going to come alive and try to eat us?

LjMPd7n.png
Let's burn it down to make sure it doesn't.

poHghpR.jpg


As soon as we get rid of these two...

KMl9Dau.jpg


...we get ambushed by more of them from both sides. I'm kinda sick of wolves at this point.

SE6SBb2.jpg

5zK1l5t.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
The fuck is wrong with us, those guys used to be pushovers.

R57SrqE.png
We didn't have four of those beasts attacking us at once before.

LjMPd7n.png
Yeah, because we always killed them before they reached us. Point still stands.

YqxbTIk.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
That's better. Let's rest until the orc wakes up.

Zb1NAeC.jpg


i must say that this forest looks a lot better at night then during the day.

o7eUEYP.jpg


Wolves are still the same though. Guess the enemies don't change between night and day in this area.

nTRtIbu.jpg


As we near the actual hideout, we find a lone archer guarding the entrance. We could just run along until we get in range, with him happily shooting us in the face.

t6Cupr3.jpg


Or we could hide around the corner and wait for him to come to us.

3XAduJ0.jpg


gbNvnrk.jpg
This is just a start of this glorious purge. Elrath shall lead us to these infidels and burn them in his blazing radiance!

ZCixO2f.jpg

LtdaIlt.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
Don't worry, we never pass up an opportunity for more glory and riches. Even if we are looking for a book, these bandits ought to have stolen something a little more... valuable.

gbNvnrk.jpg
I am glad you are so supportive, Krivolina. The book is nothing against the slaughter we are about to commit on these henchmen of darkness.

kERqSUC.jpg


That's why we are here for, right? Let the rampage begin!

odJwYXm.jpg


1DB5vNn.png
"Humans love their little rooms and little corridors. Hmph."

eKnxpQB.png
So what? What do the orcs have that's so different?

1DB5vNn.png
Little huts and no corridors. Not enough rooms for them.

dQkcmn8.jpg


Since lockpicking isn't in this game and extreme door-bashing action isn't an option, let's search for this key.

28iigUP.jpg


As soon as we open the door on the left an archer immediately greets us with an arrow. And since he trapped us in a tight corridor, no other option then to move right to him.

R57SrqE.png
What the- hey, you that's not fair dude, I just opened the door!

:troll:Problem?

kIlwkOP.jpg


R57SrqE.png
Kill that asshole!

gbNvnrk.jpg
You are lucky, filth. You will be among the first from your wretched gang to be purged from this world. You can brag to your comrades in Sheogh when we send them there after you.

:troll:Aww shit:(

x92mq0w.jpg


gbNvnrk.jpg
Ahh, the sweet taste of burning sinner flesh. It smells so right!

eKnxpQB.png
...I think you are enjoying this a little too much.

gbNvnrk.jpg
There is never "too much" when talking about suffering of the wicked.

We get the key along with some other loot from the chest in the room, buit let's explore the other direction first.
And that antidote is going to come in handy, as these bandits have 10% chance to poison your characters with their attacks, 100% chance on critical.

Some kinda storehouse. Maybe there is some booze in here.

gbNvnrk.jpg
These dogs are living in sin. There is bound to be the demon's liqour and other foul spirits around here somewhere.

R57SrqE.png
They sound like my kind of people!

SPUA6Fc.jpg


The closest we find to that are some healing potions. Having nowhere left to go, we unlock the door.

fCWsF1Y.jpg


Behind them we find our next victim enemy.

t2AVLoU.jpg
Huh? Who are you-

nt3KCrZ.jpg


We proceed to nuke the shit out of him, turning the tables from that archer encounter earlier.

41IUKNe.jpg


eKnxpQB.png
Wait, they wear the same armour like those guys near Portmeyron! These were the guys who tried to kill us! So it's official, they weren't governors men like you said, Rosalie! I am going to be a paladin afterall!

gbNvnrk.jpg
Indeed, their wicked reach draws far.

R57SrqE.png
Quit celebrating and start killin'.

IbK4pog.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
Well, I am sure this isn't going to end in an ambush with us surrounded.

HqEUgzM.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
See? It ended up being even worse!

XebNF66.jpg
Fucking... bandit archers. Worse then... spiders.

Fortunately we can just step back, but that doesn't make their poison any less annoying.

ew9zkDo.jpg


Uw2I78H.jpg
By Arkath, this is like the Spider Lair all over again. Except worse.

XebNF66.jpg
Tell me about it.

1DB5vNn.png
Me not feel well, me cast spell.

LjMPd7n.png
Bah, pussies. I was poisoned only once and it wasn't that bad. Stop complaining and just bear it.

XebNF66.jpg
You are the one talking about complaining all the time? Miss "Who forgot to take a bath?" "I though the daylife was boring here?" "Great, now they are shooting at us?" You?

LjMPd7n.png
Ok ok, geez.

7zKW4no.jpg


Thankfully Arkeus bought the Cure Poison spell, so we don't have to rely on antidotes.

1DB5vNn.png
Not worry. Me heal you all.

eKnxpQB.png
Thanks Arkeus. Atleast someone is useful and doesn't complain all the time, right Krivolina?

LjMPd7n.png
...I killed more things with firebolt then you even managed to hit with that stupid sword of yours. Just wait until I get Implosion.

CZYFQ1g.jpg

WDIYXWk.jpg


A perception-based secret yields us some unidentified stuff, reminding me to raise Krivolina's Prime magic skill to Expert next for the Identify spell.

Behind a magic-based one we find a lever which allows to pass onward.

And slaughter some more bandits/militiamen in the training room.

LjMPd7n.png
i don't get what you are complaining, guys. Being poisoned isn't that... it isn't bad at all no. I can endure it all day without crying about it. Boohooo I am poisoned, big deal!

1DB5vNn.png
Good. Then me not waste mana on curing you.

LjMPd7n.png
Fucking cure me or you get an Implosion in the face once I get it.

1Z3x5jE.jpg

JtpaVTt.jpg


We also find one of the parts of the quest item needed to make Pariah into a paladin here.

eKonSmm.jpg


Next up, the library.

LjMPd7n.png
I didn't think those bandits would have such a large collection of books.

gbNvnrk.jpg
Just a bunch of pornographic filth no doubt.

R57SrqE.png
...can we take some with us?

eKnxpQB.png
I don't think they have anything for dwarves, unless they are really kinky.

LjMPd7n.png
Still less kinky then if they had an orc collection.

1DB5vNn.png
That true. Humans ugly and weak.

RDJnkEy.jpg


For some reason we weren't ambushed after looting this chest. I guess they forgot about it.

6HDuLSk.jpg

HtSutWi.jpg


Not in this case, though.

QNY9jaW.jpg

wmxd1qh.jpg


LjMPd7n.png
They are really kicking our asses here. Even the nagas weren't that bad.

XebNF66.jpg
...stupid poison.

gVTUgHz.jpg


Atleast we get a key out of this.

otEwaym.jpg

G1dqMA9.jpg


Just an empty room with a door blocked by some really large rocks.

pGx2VQN.jpg


The only thing of note is another floating book. Portal to a Distant star, eh? Let's read it.

c1p1DNE.jpg


Yes, you can find poems about the previous Might and Magic games written by "Lord Caneghem". I am not sure which one this references though. Gates to Another World perhaps?

VYqicAL.jpg


Yeah, archer ambushes are really common here. Let's just wait around the corner again.

rwf32nr.jpg


Yeah, like this.

U2eUCFS.jpg


Easy. May their souls escape whatever horrible fate Rosalie has in store for them.

d3FNO5k.jpg


R57SrqEs.jpg
Look, another book. Maybe there some pictures in there.

wJJHIqF.jpg


The book doesn't tell us if he was a good hunter or a bad one, just that he attended frequently.

E9RpoCs.jpg

GRPUixV.jpg


Breaking down another wall reveals the way to the second level. Dunno how those bandits went through that wall though. Maybe there was a secret switch that we missed.

jqazOf6.jpg


And so, here we are.

dTJ8W8O.jpg

KtC0yz8.jpg

os7quE9.jpg


Let's start by purging some more baddies.

vZbMPZX.jpg


eKnxpQBs.jpg
Oh yes, another one! Let's just drink-

LjMPd7ns.jpg
No, this one is mine, you had enough stat boosts, you munchkin!

And so drinking that weird dark blue liquid gives Krivolina permanent Magic point. Not bad!

qj6Cd0u.jpg


We get a fine look at our destination and the bandit leader through this hole, but since we can't climb over these rocks we will have to take the long way around.

RzCsllE.jpg

ftzf5tl.jpg

0UDgtFe.jpg

leIRKYy.jpg


gbNvnrks.jpg
The purge is nearly complete. Just a few more sinners for the fire.

bWafNzv.jpg

VL8sWFq.jpg


Just as Rosalie finishes speaking, more bandits arrive for divine retribution. Oh, and that underground city exists. And we are going to visit it.

Oy21wHI.jpg

GT74k9s.jpg

YmIp40D.jpg


LjMPd7ns.jpg
Meh, these guys begin to bore me, where is the challenge?

We make short work of them, as it seems their poison chance has some problems trigering.

AzyoAds.jpg


Continuing on our merry way, some mushrooms illuminate our path.

pHA4r3N.jpg


And a band of brigands attacks, making me eat my words about the poison chance and almost killing Krivolina.

LjMPd7ns.jpg
This... sucks.

IMnLahV.jpg

BSZ7SOP.jpg


Thankfully we have regeneration.

zTdCMFd.jpg


Almost need nightvision in this darkness.

7mdYHn5.jpg


Now we are almost there.

pePmz0l.jpg

After surviving a bandit ambush, we can get straight to the bandit leader and the book.

gbNvnrks.jpg
This place is cleansed. Only the source of this corruption remains. Let's send him to Sheogh with all of his henchmen.

LjMPd7ns.jpg
I have a few firebolts with his name on it. Shouldn't be too hard, we just took on his whole gang and won.

TufV8Zh.jpg


eKnxpQBs.jpg
Hey, aren't you that Luke guy? The one Eileen asked us to either kill or redeem?

gbNvnrks.jpg
Death and eternal suffering is the only redemption I know about. Kill him and be quick about it.

dWdpwJq.jpg


1DB5vNns.jpg
Boy, you no heart of bandit, you know that.

luke_anh3.jpg
What? Nonsense! I am the most vicious bandit leader you will ever see!

eKnxpQBs.jpg
You are a little too soft on your victims for that. We know about that merchant your guys ambushed. You only took as much as not to make him completely broke and even repaired his wagon wheel. I am sure you could be a good man if you tried.

LjMPd7ns.jpg
Yeah pussy, should have robbed him of everything and kill him to stay anonymous.

luke_anh3.jpg
What? Well, yeah but...

eKnxpQBs.jpg
Just listen and walk away from all of this. Did you really choose this path freely, or only to spite your mother? Eileen perhaps?

luke_anh3.jpg
You don't understand...

gbNvnrks.jpg
Shut up and die. Kill him, this wretch doesn't deserve to live. What in the name of Elrath are you doing here, Pariah?

eKnxpQBs.jpg
Well, I want to be a paladin someday. So I guess I should start trying to act like one.

So, here we are! Choices and Consequences, people!

Do we:

A) Kill Luke
B) Spare Luke

Vote away!

Be the white knight paladin you always wanted to be and let him go. At worst you can kill him later.

The man made his own choice, and expressed no remorse, in fact only defiance in refusing to accept responsibility for his crimes.

Avenge the innocents who died, if not by his own hand, then by those who he commanded in this bandit ring. Bring him down!
