Well, after I knew my tactics I liked the catacombs as a mage (after the 4th game). Though the end fight was always a prob me if I didn't have enough potions. You see, I didn't want to miss one XP pt, kill all before meeting Mardaneus <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

The spider burned nicely, BTW <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> - I had more probs with the guardians if they came too near. I went into the catacombs after killing zombie Jake 2x, so I was lvl 3(?) when I entered. Putting up the difficulty lvl gave me no considerate bonus - not even nicer goodies.

I'm more the quest type player not the h/s <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> - do as you wish, have fun. That's what a game is for, hm? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
