Uhhh... Petrify? Life for a Life? Banish to Inferno? Still, pretty nasty.

Life for a life and petrify kill him, but phoenix pyre makes him reappear elsewhere on the battlefield.

Banish to inferno...

I'm not sure. He will reappear later on, even then.

A defending player could cast life for life a few times before he even casts his first spell (assuming it's phoenix pyre). Defending you would want to script his phoenix pyre first.

I usually do- his current one was earthpower first, this time, as the opponent hadn't gotten blood or earth magic just yet.

> No, you can't kill him.

Pfff... In one of the other threads, there is a build that can kill him on turn
one without breaking a sweat. It's called Tartarian killer, or something, but
that setup will work just as well against your Dai-Oni.

(It's actually called "Setting up an Ettin?")

Nothing, and I do mean NOTHING, no matter how empowered, wished for, or pimped
out, can survive a dedicated teleport squad scripted to kill it. You need
support even for the best SC.

Your fabled Dai-Oni would die, for example, to a bunch of naked Seraphs scripted
to attack monster, orb lightning (x4). He may kill two on his first turn, and
after that will never wake up.

Even with phoenix pyre and high reinvigoration(which I love and use often) it is very possible to kill an enemy enough times in one turn for the fatigue from the pyre to kill them.

An awakened bog beast.

I win.

Its pretty safe to assume that you aren't overly familiar with the idea of hyperbole as it applies to the english language. Of course a teleport squad of 4 seraphs should be able to kill him. four 133 pearl summons had better be able to take out a national mage armed with 40 or so gems worth of items.

"This fighter jet is unbeatable"

"Uh, not if I shot 4 nukes at it. I bet that would take it out."

Thank you. 4 nukes will take out anything.

A single banish to inferno/claws of cocytus mage should be able to do it, iirc.
A decent number of mages casting petrify/life for a life ect should also do it(or a group of mages casting enough destructive spells per round to kill him several times over).
