Yes, I too used the Bow for those blasted Bloodhounds.
They are way too quick and powerful for me to fight toe-to-toe.
Still in G1:
<span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'> I decided to take that other bridge opposite
of the Orc Bridge and there was a Golem.
I thought, Oh, Sh*t! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
This time I decided to try the direct approach first,
so I pulled out the orc hammer and in only about
10 maybe 18 swings that Golem was toasted;
got him on my first try; yahoo! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/XmasJump.gif" alt="" />
He took half my health away, but I still beat him. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Then I went up the path; near the top I heard a flapping sound.
I moved so I could look up and I saw them...Harpies! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
Again, I tried the direct approach using the orc hammer
and lured one to me. Well, that didn't work, I died. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
This time I stood back and shot them with arrows;
that worked super good. They never even swooped down on me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
I went into the building and eradicated the Harpy infestation
all with my bow.
While doing that I died about 8 times and I ate a lot of
food for health, but I got them all.
I opened the book case door and found skeletons. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
I knew I was absolutely no match for more than one skeleton at a time.
So I just left them alone and hoped they would wander the building
while I moved upward and took out the rest of the Harpies.
It worked; there were 3 skeletons and they were all
at different locations when I came back down.
Each skeleton was a hard and difficult battle for me.
For 10 hits that made contact with them I only damaged them in one hit.
The third and last skeleton was the hardest.
I must have hit him at least 30 to 40 times before I finally killed him.
I was standing up from my chair yelling at my computer monitor,
"Come on die you blasted mother, die, die, die!" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />
Finally it died and none too soon.
I only had 3 health points remaining after that fight. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
Whew!
Well, now I have the deed to that building. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
