Wuts best way to kill Ogre-Mage at firewine bridge?

[KIPP FOCKLER]

Ive tried several different methods of killing this powerful Ogre-Mage
without success. I wait until his globe of invulnerability runs out. I keep
my character invisible. Ive used all types of arrows, Ive silenced
him.Unless someone can help me im going to wait until im at lvl 6or 7 and
try again. I really would like to see what kind of goodies he has.

Dispel Magic. A very useful little spell (and certain characters can get
it as a special ability too). One of the top three spells in the game
IMO.

I thought he was talking about Kahrk? the one west of the bridge
topside (remember the chick with the jar)

I believe he meant the one in the dungeon at the end of the Kobold maze
beneath the brewery in Gullyplop (or whatever that mud-hole is called:)

I 'did for him' last night, after Imoen led the way through, chopping
the little dogs into cat-food, running away with her boots of speed, re-
stealthing, creeping back and chopping some more . . . we (she and I)
quite enjoyed ourselves, in a sadistic, bullying kind of way :-)

Before she went on her rampage, I got Xen to invisible her (wow - truely
awfull grammar - sorry about that), and sent her through the maze,
mapping and clearing the traps. Invisibility is great for this.

Finally got to a T-junction, already having scouted out the fact that a
mage and his pet ogrillions were waiting around the corner, with the
ogre mage a bit further on the passage. I lined the team up, just out of
sight - you have to be really carefull in those narrow passages to have
the marching order right, and not have the various members of your group
getting in each other's way and treading on each other's toes - Branwen
says 'these are not the actions of true warriors born - now get off my
foot you hamster loving oaf . . .'

My tactics, to my surprise, inadvertantly introduced me to one of the
true joys of the lightening spell.

Stealthed, Imoen moved down the passage way to make sure that the Ogre
Mage couldn't crash our party.

Branwen, still out of the enemy's sight, with the rest of the group,
summoned a half-dozen skeletons out at the bad guys feet - my intention
was just to give them something to aim at whilst I got her out there to
cast silence on the wisard and the Ogre Mage.

Anyway, the moment the bone-crew appeared, this deranged and stupid
magic user let's off a lightening bolt at the one on his left. This goes
through the skeleton. Hits the wall. Bounces back. Goes through the
mage, and the Ogrillion in the alcove behind him, bounces back, goes
through the pair again . . . my skeleton is dust by now. In total, the
fools own lightening hit him and his pet 3 times before he turned to
cinders, then carried on bouncing back and forth for a dozen times more.

After this little episode, the only trouble I had with the Ogre Mage was
trying to keep my mouse-hand steady through my fits of laughter, long
enough to direct my ranger to set light to him with all those pretty
little pyrotechnic Kobold arrows he'd collected . . . <G>

Wow...

Something along these lines must have happened to me, too, though I
didn't see it - my fighter Croaker (RP'ing the Black Company, eh) got
fried by the mage, leaving him with 3 HP -- as I'm running away,
trying to find a corner to get around, I hear the mage letting loose
another bolt - then he screams and crumbles to the ground... I didn't
have anyone else in the area, so I figured it was something with his
spell.. Oh well-

I liked the Firewine Dungeon, BTW...

Yeah, but if you come in through the halfling's house you can cream the
Ogre mage before even having to worry about the rest.

I justed used a arrow of slaying, it has a specal properity of killing orge
mage's "instantly" (thats its "specality" nothing else, but i was using the
eagle bow so it could be something else)

Hahah, I've found that lightning is a very bad spell to cast in closed
quarters. But not as annoying as having someone cast Call Lightning on you.
Damn druids do it every time, and after I kill them, I'm still being zapped
by random lightning strikes for the next 5 minutes ;)

I am "shocked" to hear this happened to you. The druid responsible
should be "charged" to the fullest extent of the law. :<)
BA-HA-ha-ha,ummmm. I just got back from an 11 hour LAN party. It's
late, I'm tired, and my brain is fried. I'm going to bed now.

I still like to play Doom. You can't say no to MIDI music!!
