In Reply to: Question about Necros and Lichs... posted by Bishop on August 19, 2000 at 15:36:04:
> I haven't played a necro since the second age so here are my questions: > 1) I played Zraqkhyss and was in Masters. I doubt anyone remembers him but if you did let me know ;} No I don't > 2) Why do necros always stop leveling at 47 (Spetre) now? You can't advance further, it's like not chosing a sphere, sorta. > 3) Do necros not gettin any more skills/spells/powers after rank 47? Yes, if they become a lich. > 4) Is there anything significant about rank 47 other than you can Become? See the answer to 3) and 4) > 5) Once you become a Lich can you con-die? Yes > 6) If you can, what's the big deal about becoming a Lich other than not having to eat or drink or sleep? More power. > 7) If you can't, how did Viscrinth and Onox die? See answer to 5) > 8) If you don't have to sleep as a Lich how does this affect your mana regen? CAN you sleep if you want to in order to regen mana faster? No idea, never played a lich, to quote a newbie once :'It said on the mudconnecter that CF had lich as a race, but I can't chose it on the race-question' > 9) Can you only make phylacteries as a Lich? Yes > 10) Do phylacteries last forever or are they like wands and staves and expire after so many uses? Yes > 11) Has anyone ever tried to Become and fouled up the elixir? Did you live? Were your stats so screwed that you couldn't be effective anymore? Any insight helpful here. Yes, many. More die to much trying to complet the quest and delete before finding all the components. > 12) If you do get skills/spells after 47 why not rank to hero and then maybe Become later? See answer to 2) > Isn't ritual of Abomination one? Lich-skill > Thanks in advance Welcome, Søren
(*Smirk* I can only come when I am 47!)
