Martok Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 Just a few things I wanted to mention about Doom: ***The Bell Of Dead*** You will not be able to summon Chyloth, the Ferry Man if the skeletal dragon that guards the bell is in the dungeon. The dragon will only be in the dungeon if someone has previously summoned Chyloth and did not greet him with the proper payment in a short amount of time. If, however, Chyloth is summoned successfully and payment has been accepted, he will transport the player and everyone in her party to the other side of Lake Mortis. You should do what you can to assemble a full party – better yet – multiple parties to cross the lake with you. The gauntlet cannot be completed by a small group in a reasonable amount of time. ***Gauntlet Loot*** There have been some words on the amount of loot that spawns on the gauntlet champions. The reason for the seemingly smaller quantity of items, is that the gauntlet champions are one of the only monsters in the game that have a chance of dropping an item with 100% item property intensity (in other words, you can only feasibly get the really, really, really high-end magic loot on gauntlet champions). There is one other thing to be mentioned about the loot. The gauntlet champs have a chance of dropping one of many very special items (the vast majority of which have never been spawned). These items defy many of the rules of conventional magic items. Fortune smiles on her who would find one of these items. ***Miscellaneous Tidbits*** - While in the gauntlet, you may die. Actually, you will quite probably die a lot. - It’s best to have a small group of people dedicated to combat support, i.e. healing, restoring the bodies of the dead, restocking combat supplies etc. - Once inside one of the gauntlet chambers, there is no escape for the living. Only the dead may pass through the doors stained with blood. - The most economical choice for the dead is to have a fellow adventurer resurrect them. Those fighting without the benefit of a helping hand, can find healing in one of the chambers of the second level (for a nominal fee, of course, since evil healers have to eat too, you know). - Those in need of supplies may be able to find Nix, the Variety Dealer – located on level 2, just through the… well – I’ll let you find him. I’ve said too much already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
