Hey, im kinda stuck, i'm in Orobas Fjords, where the big ocean is, and where the anti dragon zones are, i cant beat the imp Warriors, on the sea shore, they are level 21, and im only level 14, my best bow is from 13-36. and my best sword is from 7-50. but they only take off about 8 when i hit the enemies and thats practically zero because their health is so large. and they take off about 50 from me!!

i dont know what i doing wrong, i've tried to buy the best armour and weapons from traders, because i have plenty of cash, but i find that i already have the best weapons and armour.

With tough enemies i normally blind them so they cant see, using magic, or charm then so that they fight at my side, but at the moment, my blind skill only works with enemis at level 20. and my charm with enemis at level 19.

All the other magic i have takes too less from my my enemies and is useless. CAN ANYONE HELP AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG???

Is there a good weapon or magic skill that helps...

I reeeeeeeeelly like this game,, but just kinda stuck... frown

Sorry to hear you are stuck. It seems you are at a very low level for the area you are in. I have not finished the game yet although I am also in the orobus fjords. I entered the area at level 19 soon after getting the battle tower. At that level, I seemed able to handle the goblins just fine.

I think you are at a very low level for your character. You have completed sentinel island, killed laiken and got the battle tower, correct? At this point you should be able to transform into your dragon form. I am curious how you managed to get this far with such a low level. How did you manage to kill laiken at level 14? For that matter, I was not able to kill amdusias until I hit level 15. I leveled to 15 in just the broken valley area. I was level 14 when I entered the maxos temple. It seems that maybe you have been skipping a lot of quests or a lot of content. The only thing I can think of is that you entered the fjords from the broken valley pass before heading to sentinel island. This would explain why you are only level 14. If this is the case you should head back to the broken valley and head to the maxos temple and continue with the main quest line. I think it would have been impossible to play through the sentinel island area and still be level 14. either way, you need to find some way to level because you are not going to make it far in the fjords.

If you have done the battle tower and sentinel island then I have a few suggestions. One thing that might work is to get ranger stealth and get magic blast (you can respec at the trainer for 5000gold). Use stealth to get close and then magic blast an enemy. Then run out of range and repeat. You should be able to take out enemies one at a time in this manner. Also, dont forget your creature. use the necromancer to swap in and out creature parts. I used dragon elf arms to +100% magic damage and then used a head that has level 4 magic missle and level 4 magic blast. My creature is not very durable but frequently kills enemies on his own. Lastly, I found summon ghost to be great for tough battles (in fact, its the only thing saving me sometimes). The ghost heals very fast once you pu 4-5 points in the skill.

Have you completed everything in Broken Valley? (assuming you don't have the battle tower yet)

After finishing Maxos temple, I headed to the fjords to level before going to Sentinel Island (you can mindread your first encounter there to go up a level, so the higher level you are, the more of a boost that will give). I was level 16 after the first couple opponents, got to 17 at the bottom of the mountain path, and needed to take out a few of the imps to get to level 18. I found it much easier after switching my creature to a ranger head (level 2 Fireball) rather than a warrior head (level 6 Rush Attack / Fatality), but it was still challenging on level 17. I later switched my creature to a mage head.

There is an experience bonus for taking out higher level opponents, but it is capped; at 3 or more levels higher you get a 50% bonus (1/6 if they are one level higher, 1/3 if 2 levels higher). Generally, if you start running into really difficult opponents there are other quests or locations better suited to your level.
