Default Re: Could u stop Gorgon?

The Gorgorn is actually pretty easy to stop. In melee she doesn't actually kill skeletons faster than a couple of skele spammers can throw them up. Sure, their low MR makes them die each round when they attack - but the stream of skeletons moves in fast enough that she doesn't make any forward prgress. Occassionally one of them makes a lucky hit and the Gorgon gets a battle affliction. Eventually she runs or dies. She might not kill any real troops.

Seriously, enchantment 3 and some Bakemono Sorcerers or Grand Thaumaturges and the battles is a foregone conclusion.

More importantly, should the gorgon get a battle result of "Mute" or "Feebleminded" she is unlikely to survive the battle against any opponents. A gorgon is a serious roll of the dice t the start of the game that can easily end with a dead gorgon.

So easy is it to stop or kill a gorgon in fact, that I regard her as a bad goddess for Pangaea. Pangaea has serious problems getting into secondary paths of magic, and a big Earth/Nature goddess doesn't help that at all.

Versus a naked gorgon all that is a possibility, once they have equip and buffs (such as the OP references) skelly spamming will do nothing besides time out the battle if you have huge amounts.
