> Okay, Septach probably would have beaten it if it wasn't sanc'd or if he dispelled it... What about the other classes? Most other classes can't heal themselves 20 times and put up sanc. I know the thing is killable but jeeze, it's really friggin powerful, especially for a long distance spell. A group of at least two probably could kill it, but I think that consequences ought to be added... ie if the nightgaunt dies, the caster suffers as if his familiar died... or just give it much less hp... Of course there's probably some secret way to get it to run off that someone'll figure out soon and then people will be posting about how underpowered nightgaunts are ;)
> I don't think the point of Nep's message was that it had sanctuary. Look at the actual description of it: Blackest shadows, soundless wings. Now, I've never encoutered a nightgaunt, but I've got two ideas of how to fight them when I do.
