It's easy to beat it, I had a creature, used fire wall, charm and missiles to finish him off. Actually that's how I do everything, I'm meleer, I charm the minions of the boss to aid my creature, I use fire wall when get stuck in the middle and then just run around room using missiles when I need.

Should I concentrate on the Demon away from Laiken or go straight for Laiken first? Once the demon is dead is it game over for Laiken?... Also how good a healer is Sassan? How do you avoid firewall?....Which seems to be my demise most of the time. I have whirlwind lvl 5 and thousand hits level 2 but its not helping me much because of the mana toll that comes with it.

2 things to say here
1. Sassan Tries to heal to full everytime and mostly does unless your being pounded on
2. The demon is easiest to fight
3. dont forget to mindread Laiken for his sword
4. SPAM WHIRLWIND hope that helps in future playthroughs


Where i come from ascesion to a higher rank is a simple assasination those who are Ranked Highest watch their Front their deaths come from thier back and they die naturally because a dagger in the back naturallyu ends their life.

Well, I use a FireWall / Whirlwind strategy.

I let Sassan attack Laiken, and I take on everything else. I use FireWall, jump out, heal, Rush Attack back in, Whirlwind, duck out, run around until FireWall is usable again, Rush attack back in, FireWall and repeat. By the time I finished with all the Undead and Razakel, I went to take out Laiken, who to my suprise, was already dead, since Sassan had killed him while I took out the other guys ;3

Firewall is a deadly spell! It's a must have!

Its not anyone that killed laiken, but yourself. He will be dead together with razakel. I found that killing razekel will be a better choice, as it lead to both laiken and razakel drop a loot bag after death. Where as just killing laiken himself first, razakel will still die but no loot bag appear. Well it maybe a glitch on my game though.

The best strategy for warrior is, just get your armor defense rating as high as possible. With good armor and some potions, you basically wont die and can slash your opponents to death without thinking much of what skills needed or to use.

I just ran around the throne area and hacked away at whatever chased me. I mostly went for the demon, and ended up taking Laiken out through him.

If you had updated your game, your warrior is now even more powerful, as your normal hack and slash all doing small aoe damage, so you basic attack will just damage a few mobs at the same time. Strong armors and weapons, and you basically unstoppable.

I think the case "enemies drop loot" is also a randomly thing!
But I think for Laiken you're right ACSS:
better kill Razakel, but first Mindread Laiken! smile
