I love Bogus

Does anyone know if, once Bogus is killed, if he comes back? As in: can you get the same special event more than the life of Bogus? And, are there more than one adventuring group around? If not, I hope somebody makes a mod addon that features several different ones.

He definitely comes back; I've seen him show up the turn after he's killed. There's only one group.

Remind me please Graeme - what are the exact rules of this multiplication? Is it 50% chance of 2 attacks per turn and 50% chance of 3 attacks, same for both melee and missile attacks?

I'm not really sure how it works, since I've seen an ice devil with 150% heroic quickness make 9 attacks per turn.

I've killed the whole band several times in some games (and got multiples of some of their gear, as a result).

Regarding quickness:

AFAIK (from Dom2) quickness from spell or item doubles your actions and provides some other bonuses but does NOT stack with the 50% quickness from blessing - you just get the doubling. The maximum quickness most units can get is +100%

Heroic quickness, however, is special. Heroic quickness can give loads of actions. This stacks additively with the +50% from bless or the +100% from item/spell (or +100% total from both).
I've had units with four or five full actions per turn in Dom2. It's the best heroic ability IMO. Even better in Dom1 when the bag of winds could summon a free elemental every action...

You know, that's what I thought too! That's why I was a bit surprised when Graeme said it multipies. I thought inn Dom2 quickness from spell/item simply replaces 50% quickness from bless. But since Graeme sounded confident I decided that maybe I do not remember things correctly, or perhaps it was changed in Dom3.

I'm pretty sure that you're right, and it doesn't stack. I got the heroic quickness and blessing quickness confused.
