"One on One with Zant Little Help?"
First game with a single FN. Killed off the Umpani hoping to get the letter. No good. Now I'm killing spiders and I've run into a little problem with Zant. The Bastard's tough one on one.

I tried to kill him through the window but he runs away each time. Went to the back side and one of the problems I'm having is that he will keep indexing forward as I back up trying to stay out of his "stinging" range. (he couldn't move forward at the window of course)

Within the first three stings I'm paralyzed and it's over with. Oh I might get free but it is short lived.

Any general help for going toe to toe with this bug?

LV 29
All Spells (almost)
CoC
Powercast 72
load 60/209

Thought I could just walk up and swat the critter. Guess not.

Thanks

Marc

Armorplate and Magic Screen from scroll and Amulet before you start. Superman from potion round one, and keep it fresh.

Canned elemental will give him something else to sting.

I can use a canned Elemental indoors? I've tried to cast Elemental but it wouldn't let me.

CE can be used anywhere, has the power of level 6 summon, so yep you can.

5. "Only where there's room"
You gotta drag Z'ant out of his little corner first, there's no room in there otherwise. There are lots of places where Elementals cannot be summoned, regerdless whether in the can.

6. "Canned will work where regualr will not"
I am not sure why, or how the game figures out how much room there is for the elemental, but I have been in laces could not conjure one, but was able to throw in a canned one.

I guess that since they had to be squeezed down into the can(bottle) anywhere it fits they do.

8. "Well, Thanks Everyone :-)"
OK the canned Ele worked just fine. I also cast a level 5 (I think) Ele inside(later on).

I feel like a bonehead. I never stopped to think that I could cast a smaller Ele inside. Once I found out that the full tilt spell didn't work inside I just checked it off as not possible.

Anyway, Zant is dead, ship is gone, Idol is gotten (Crock is dead)(kinda enjoyed that btw), CM is mine... Off to the trees and then the caves...

Thanks for the help.
