Vip.rus (Mage, Orah) defeated Bolivar (Necromancer, Deidra) - Week 7. Orah is level 31, with stats 20-20-33-50+, with all items equipped. I focused solely on Light magic, as I really dislike Chaos. I started with a Hafiz, so there were no problems with leveling up. When I found Resurrection (it wasn't in the castle), everything started falling easily. The Necromancer was surprisingly far behind in leveling, especially in stats. My Mage turned out to be incredibly powerful, with all stats higher than the Necromancer's, even though the opponent tried to catch up towards the end. In the end, it was only during the battle that I finally realized what had been holding me back and preventing me from attacking the Necromancer – for 6 weeks, I didn't find either Antimagic or Spell Removal:eek: Fortunately, my Mage was so powerful, and Divine Retribution is such a broken skill, that the Necromancer decided to commit suicide and threw a couple of Archmages at me, although, in theory, it should have been me attacking him with Archmages. And the entire stack of Rakshasas spent the whole battle on the Necromancer's side! I was lucky in this game overall! P.S. It seems that after level 20, they start giving useless skills. Apparently, I'm the only one who gets this. This time, I didn't get either Keen Intellect (even though I took all the prerequisites), Righteous Fury and Storm Fury, or Counterspell. Instead, I got March of the Golems, which was undoubtedly the most useful skill for me. It's almost comical to talk about the rest.
