Default Re: Could u stop Gorgon?

true that. I typically play Dom III with real life friends, though that does limit your exposure to new strategies.

How about the gorgon wearing the aegis, do potential killers have to pass a double petrification check before getting to attack?

To the question posed above, the original question is how you can kill a gorgon. And there have been some good suggestions.
That i like playing the gorgon is obvious. And I disagree that a titan is better or cheaper. Look at the titans available to MA Pangaea, and tell me which is better?

Petrification is available from the outset, not at const 8. poison resistance is the best resistance to have.

flying is also a must. Which titans fly? Which titans heal their own afflictions? Which ones have fear plus 5?

It is all a matter of preference. I laugh at the manual's suggestion of using an awake alchemist for Ulm. That is all well and good if you enjoy having a pretender whose main function is to hunt for gem sites. I personally do not enjoy playing that style. I like a pretender that can fight. And I like one that can fly to get to fights in a hurry. And there are items that can reduce an enemy's chance to resist petrification. And taking a magic scale also makes enemies less likely to resist petrification, as well as helping those expensive pans along with their research.

I also am a firm believer in having all your slots for items. the bull may have more hps, but he has 2 slots. End game if he goes trampling into high end troops and a row of mages, he is toast. The gorgon, with items, is a great caster. And there is no comparison between trample and petrification. One exhausts your pretender, one can kill 30 enemies and you take no fatigue.
