Even with magic screen, soul shield and element shield, bless and armorshield on my 5 hitters and 2 casters (level 14-15) get butchered in less than 10 rounds! Armormelt or any offensive spells don't work on her, elementals do no damage except when they accidently hit me and my arrows don't do enough damage to fight her from up the cliff. She relly annoys me, I want to see her insides on the edge of my blade, mwahahaha   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Get down behind the rocks where the dogtags are and scoot into the little corner (closest to Nessie) where you can peek out to initiate combat and scoot back when Nessie approaches. Eventually from there she'll retreat and combat will end. Then you can run, to either Davy Jones Locker or the watervator up to the Sea Caves path. If she catches you halfway there, run in combat to DJL and she'll eventually wander off again.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Run around the edge of the rock and head for Nessie. This will get you closer when combat starts. Cast the elementals to the right side, then approach Nessie from the left. She will breathe on them and miss you. Use Heal All, or cast heal on the elementals before they die. Armormelt works, the symbol is far away and hidden behind Nessie. The left/right trick lets you see it.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

I've done it solo (and as a faerie bishop no less) many times with these weapons. Cast and keep Element Shield up, have healing potions ready and use Superman on top of Enchanted Blade to get those hits. It's possible to do this at level 15. At that level a pure hybrid could learn those spells and a little perseverance is all you need. I've done a few games as a ninja turned bishop with 100 stealth, on my way to learning all the spells before returning to ninja and by the time I got a good opportunity to go against Nessie, she was fairly easy. I've been level 17-18 mostly by that time as you level-up pretty fast going solo, especially when you're at normal diffculty.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
