If I remember correctly, the only monsters you will find inside the Naga Vault is more Nagas.

No idea on how to use the scrolls since I haven't played the Might and Magic games since I upgraded to Windows 7. So someone else have to help you with that.

Thanks Smiley, I haven't used that spell yet but I sure will try it out. I keep forgetting that the Dragon has other spells too. Don't think I've tried any of the other ones.

Mad, I haven't use the jump scrolls yet. My air magic person has the spell in his book to use. Look up and see the hole that is just a little darker and bigger. Then you stand under it and use the jump spell. When you jump up, use the forward key at the end of the jump. May take you a few times to get it right. The scrolls probably work the same way if you click it on the person. It happens fast. smile

I always use the turn combat. Some people don't, it's whichever way you want to play. I'm doing other things to try to get a little stronger before going back into the Fire Plane again.

Hi Looney! wave

Hi Mad, Jump just throws you up in the air. You have to push the forward key to go forward in the air. Like Kay said, it might take a little practice to get it right. If your necro has air magic, he should be able to cast jump.

I don't think I ever did the Naga vault.

Hi Barb grin

I'd better check if he does have the JUMP spell !! blush

But thanks for the tip on jumping.

I'm pretty sure the Wasp Nest will be too difficult for me right now but I wanted to give it a go as I expect the Naga Vault will be tough also.
It's probably just going to be a case of "where would I like to die the most" ?? rotfl

Cheers.

While the Naga Vault might be tough (not much space to avoid the Naga attacks). Plane of Earth is way tougher considering how much damage the Earth Elementals can deliver. So having a high level party is recommended before giving those two places a try.

Tired of dying already, Mad? lol Your necro might need air magic to expert to use jump, and master or grandmaster to use Invisibility and Fly, but both those spells are invaluable. I have all 3 dragons now, and it's MUCH easier.

Hi all,
Barb, when using three dragons, how do you
open chests, repair, heal and other things that your party need? I can't even get one more dragon. Sure would like to have at least two. lol

Your party should be good enough to get the 2nd dragon - Brimstone, in Yaardrake's Cave in Shadowspire (you need Fly to get up to it.) I was level 28, I think. You can get the 3d dragon, Duroth, in Regna after you sink the Regnan fleet. I don't have a problem with repair, pick locks, etc. I have enough gold I can just go to a shop or a temple for what I need. If I have to open a chest, my party has enough HP to stay alive if it blows up. I had to drop my second necro to get Duroth, but he's worth it. Good luck!

Barb smile

I think I've now got to "expert" with all the magic skills my party has.

Not had time to play since I last posted here though so can't lay claim to any more progress just yet grin

You're doing great, Mad. Now you just have to get your MUs promoted so they can get Master and Grandmaster! smile I got Fred promoted to Priest of the Sun & he can heal the whole party at once. Your necros will become Liches. That's one of the hardest promotions, I think.

Kayc, did you get Brimstone?

Hi Barb and Mad,
Barb, I got Duroth from Regna in Old Lorb's cave after sinking the Regnan fleet. I'm doing great now. I have Brimstone waiting at the Adventurer's Inn in Ravenshore. lol
Mad, Your moving up and doing good.

That's just it Barb, think I can't lose my healer or my one Necro that I have. My healer has all the light spells and I can't do without my Necro. I just may have to go with two dragons this time.

Mad, I'm leaving my footprints, but you might not want to follow them. I've made several mistakes this time. lol

One healer, one necro, 3 dragons - you should have room for them all. That's what I have right now.

Hi Barb, I started out with a troll and can't dismiss him. He was good starting out but not as good now. lol
I'll know to start out with a Necro next time.

Ah, I see. I never played with a troll. Does he know any spells? The first time I played, I started with a minotaur. It didn't take long to realize that was a mistake! I do think a necro is the best.

Maybe you should drop Ithilgore for Brimstone. He's a little better fighter, I think.

He had NO magic & was pretty much useless! He was a pretty good fighter, but a dragon is much better.

Hi all wave
Barb, that sounds just like my Troll. No magic, only great to start out with. Ithilgore is my best fighter. I put a lot of points into Dragon Ability. He's even better than Duroth. I have to give Duroth's more Dragon Ability. So, I guess I'll just stick with the two of them. smile


Finished the game. Was nice playing an oldie again. Barb, you were right, my troll wore a couple rings to help disarm, and chests weren't a problem.
