How do I kill a water queen with a medusa shield?

[Ironhawk]

There is no level of MR which makes a unit invulnerable to the single-target insti-kill/disable spells. As zeldor has found even high 20 MR is not enough to protect you. The problem is severely compounded by the fact that SCs are usually the only prime (size 6) candidate for the many enemy mages to target since those spells favor larger targets.

I find really tough guys tend to go down to fatigue spamming. As far as fatigue goes Stellar cascades, heat aura, thunderstrike, pillar of fire etc. will circumvent the MR, defense, protection, and MR and regen doesn't help. Additionally fairies, manikins, etc. don't completely circumvent it, but work pretty well in numbers. She's got reinvig, but not that much, and once she's passed out most any half decent thug should be able to pound her into the ground. (just give him good MR). Presumably she's buffing herself a couple times and with that encumbrance she'll be more than halfway passed out before you do anything...

Baalz, you don't understand just how impossible this situation is. Your suggestions on spells are great! That's IF I have an army of mages that I can move to the right spot at the right time.

Like I said, I currently have access to any spell and any item, but I don't have access to any army setup. Again, the medusa shield pretty much kills everything. No amount of manikins, vampires, fairy queens, or ghosts will take the queen down, they die before they deal damage.

No more suggestions, just wait till I reveal my strategy!

- She is already horror marked. Spam more horrors. One of the Twin Spears can cast "Lesser Horror" in battle, Oath Rod of Kurgi gives more Horrors Marks. Combine with Quickness / Boots of Quickness for two lesser horrors per turn in battle.

- Sceptre of Corruption again coupled with Quickness. She has good regen, but not that many HPs.

- Gifts from Heaven.

Some of your suggestions would simply take a lot of testing. There's too many variables, too many unknowns for your suggestions to be valid, such as:

-Horrors might get killed from medusa shield
-Gift of heavens is too inaccurate
-Gift of heavens casters are hard to get in numbers
-Gift of heavens may not be casted after script is over

The only suggestion that I think may have a decent chance is the sceptre of corruption. However, for this situation, I don't actually have access to blood magic.

BUT LIKE I SAID! I don't need anymore suggestions! I'll reveal my plan after it has been executed.

EDIT: Lol, I just did a test with the sceptre of corruption. There's no way it would work. I bet a group of mages casting banefire would work though. However, the problems are pretty much exactly like the problems of Gift of Heavens.

Cast windguide or the like before casting gifts from heaven.

Argitoth, it is humorous to see you try to stop the inflow of good ideas.

I feel bad for your predicament so maybe people can help you throw your enemy off the trail by giving you some bad ideas...

Indeed that would be good. Also, I never send a mage anywhere without gouging out their eye for eye of aiming. It's defintely a good idea if you had a mage with air, earth, and astral.

(of course for my situation, I don't have a mage like that.)

Medusa shield will pose a problem for this idea.

Yep, I can't wait to reveal my plans after I kill the water queen. Everyone will be surprised... well not everyone. There's one suggestion in here so far that BARELY HINTS at my strategy.
