OK, XP will be ok, however I suggest you turn all the pretty settings off,
although it would still pay to add another 256 of ram when finances permit.
If you have any other questions, my Yahoo addy is still valid.
We need to get you back online, playing single player too much does strange
things to people. :)

Do me a favor and send me an IM (Yahoo is ald_007_1999)? I've lost

My ladder strafeazon has a Skystrike on weapon switch, but she uses a Kuko
ATM for the higher damage.

I have you to thank for this, since your asking meant I had to swap into
AR and have a look, which reminded me how long it'd been since I took
cypress out for walkies, and how much fun she could be. She has the
cheesiest combination of crafted jewelry, armour and charms ever seen. I
think even an ITAM editor would blush to turn out some of this stuff;
why people edit their chars I don't know, all they have to do is play a
mod.

AR-SE currently has a glitch whereby NM A3 does not spawn a Disused Fane
full of Enraged Diablos. The DF is there, at the bottom of the Swampy
Pit, but no Diablos. And the Kurast Sewers are two levels instead of
going straight to the second, as I vaguely remember should happen. Allow
me a moment to register my pique at this sorry state of affairs.

With that in mind, I determined to blast cypress through A3 as fast as
ever I could, and I've never done it that fast in SP. She had good maps
all through, the Flayer Jungle connected up with the Spider Forest, the
Spider Cavern and the Flayer Dungeon both pretty much out in the open,
and while it was a bit of a slog, slog she did at top speed. She almost
died to Undead Stygian Dollie Skels in the second level of the Sewers;
but got lucky with a rejuv toss.

I think it's the Raven Frost ring that lets her eat fire for breakfast;
she stood nearly toe to toe with the Travincal Council for the nearly
ten minutes of steady shooting it took to eliminate them. But for a zon
that's entirely comfortable standing in a lake of fire, she sure does
grouse about it. "Ow, ow, ow!" all the blessed time, and her life ball
overflowing the while.

Mephisto was unexpectedly hardy, but he mostly focused on her merc,
Azrael, a fine, upstanding Holy Freeze jabber who's been levelling
steadily along with her.

She cleared the Plains in A4, after gambling for a rare rune bow and
crafting it into Magewrath. While it does somewhat better damage, she
misses the Meteor Strike on Skystrike. She's grown used to tagging her
kills with that entirely gratuitous and, in SP, utterly ineffective[1]
bit of eye candy. It's just her way of saying, "cypress wuz hear!"

Heh, yeah, I take it from the comment on the armor that you *have*
killed Natalya with her? That one alone is enough to turn a character
into a uber-boss ;-)

BTW, that's *much* harder in 1.10, he made Natalya into a real
Assassin, in every meaning of the word.

Funny, I don't remember that, and my first encounters with the Uber
Diablos were *definitely* in 1.09 AR-SE. Maybe that's something that
was changed in an upgrade? As to the Sewers, I always had to get lost
in the first level before finding the entrance to the second.

Ugh, we *hates* Undead Stygian Dolls, yes we do, my precious ;-)

You can lead a Bowazon to water, but you can't stop her from
complaining ;-)

>Mephisto was unexpectedly hardy, but he mostly focused on her merc,
>Azrael, a fine, upstanding Holy Freeze jabber who's been levelling
>steadily along with her.

Huh? Why'd you let him near him? When I'm taking on Meph with a
Bowazon, I always run into his area to draw him out, then run back
across the river (hopefully with the Merc in tow). The *Valk* then
gets to take the damage, she's much less expensive to recast. Of
course, I'm always using a Rogue merc, so she can actually have an
effect in this strategy (assuming I don't let the Valk die, Meph
always seems to go after the Merc next), so I guess this works, as
long as you didn't have to pay to res him ;-)

Blimey, you remembered that [ahem] little mishap after two years! I'm
flattered. Morgana, however, is nervous.

I've never been away, just lurking. But I'm afraid my beloved triad
would have had to be destroyed and remade for 1.10 SP, and then
Neverwinter Nights came along, and well, once you've played Neverwinter
Nights you don't often look back. But, in homage, my favourite
character in Neverwinter Nights is [drum roll] Noxambula, Lawful
Neutral Monk15/Shadowdancer2.

Hmph, I suppose I should get Hippolyta and Alcippe to 1.09 Matriarch.

There's also the screenshot of all three of them nailing named cracked
sashes above the fireplace in the Pandemonium Fortress to be taken, and
pretty soon I'll have the werewithal, i.e. a third machine on my LAN.

I envisage a screenshot with the alt/opt key held down, so the names of
the three cracked sashes are clearly visible, and the following
overhead dialog:

Hippolyta (wielding hammer): Here?
Alcippe: A bit to the left, sis.
Morgana: Useless sash anyway, it never sat right.

Richard.

Sadly, I forgot. <g>
I do however remember the shield business with Alcippe... *ducks out before
getting hit by a Lightning Fury...*

Good idea. We want spot reports! 😉
