Knights of the Chalice

Reached an impossible battle where I am
Level 15 can't beat the Ice King.

Two dragons from behind. Two tigers either side. Two Ice Giants in front.

Can't leave the room.

A Dragon kill my mage after Confusing Giants and Tigers.

Dragons grapple with one of my knights then kill the other one with the other Dragon.

One Dragon can paralyze one of my guys. The other one can cast Lighting.

Cleric isn't powerful enough to harm the dragons well.

Can't level up more(you created stupid area you can't leave come back or do anything)

Finally stumped here. Guys are two weak for this fight.

Any cheat codes I am really not in the mood to do this whole area again.


Don't have ton of areas in your next game where you can't even level up more or do anything to beat a boss battle. Challenging sure but annoying because it's a trap.

I would now have to load up saved game before this area, level up couple levels, and then go through this whole Ice area again! Which I might....have to do.

going to try and beat this ten more times before I am done with this saved game.

try working with enchantment spells, confusion, control monster etc make them fight among themselves, I also used wall of stone to cut off a dragon from approaching

yea I tried everything my guys are just to weak! i am making sure i am better prepared and starting that zone over again after I grind up a level and have everything I need to beat the battle.

still...

Would like it in the next game if you didn't lock the player into an area every time.

I would also suggest to use the Scribe Scrolls feat a lot, make sure that you're always casting your most powerful spells thanks to it.

Use the Enchant Weapon feat if possible, make your weapons as powerful as possible with enchantments like Blinding. If you have a good archer, craft an arrow of Dragon slaying.

Keep casting Heal with your Cleric. Level 15 should be enough I think.

Apologies if it's still too hard. However I think it's better for a game to be slightly too difficult rather than too easy, as a lot of the enjoyment comes from the challenge IMO.

I beat that long time ago!!!! Bringing back the Pool of Radiance Vibes!

The Tower another stupid area where you can only camp one place after that screwed.

It's an annoying mechanic. Creates Grinding and wasting the players time.

Good to hear that you were able to move forward in the game.

Can't agree on your comments about limited resting, though. I think that's a great way to create challenge and encourage the player to use resources carefully. But I agree that the player should be warned about such areas in advance.

I just don't agree with blocking a player into an area for the full area. That is not just some boss battle but the whole area. Your stuck, your screwed. You have to reload your whole game and start over. That's a waste of time.

In any case I will support your next game and play it of course.

You forgot the arrow of slaying the giants have that can one shot you characters. There is a difference between hard and just making people reload 60-70 times hoping to make every saving throw and hit for max damage every time because you are trapped in the tower and can't leave unless you can win a fight you can't win

Control Monster on the giant king was very usefull to me.

I beat that a month ago!!! Will support the kickstarter but need to see better writing more involved quests and towns that are actually more then Dragon Warrior 1 for the Nintendo.

tap into some huge PR. The reason that last DnD game made it was because of it showing up at events/cons and because of PR from major publications. It helped that Larian posted about it as well!
Look forward to your Kickstarter! already see the template looking good!

Thank you for the advice and the kind words of support, strangecat!

Use special arrows on dragons and giants. It`s pretty hard to make 1 shot kill on them.
