The unbelievable incident of the crawler's week
A) Just a pesky "vamp mosquito" experience of raven tar black developer's viciousness: You can cast Apportation to pull items towards yourself that turn out to be item mimics in the very moment they bite you. I had supposed those were just perfect delusions. But no, they have nearly no weight/mass but a powerful biting. - On the other hand I just stumbled upon a potion of experience lying around at Vault:2. Which one is the more surprising incident? -- Bwijn 18:51, 24 February 2013 (CET)
B) Which sort of mini vault could it be if you encounter on D:16 a gang of 5 humans, a wizard and a necromancer? (Each single might not be a bad challenge.) Have you seen anything like that? -- Bwijn 20:33, 18 March 2013 (CET)
- The gang of five humans isn't too uncommon. I'm pretty sure that they can appear in small packs like that naturally. The wizard and necromancer, I'm not so sure about. Were there any unusual structures nearby? --MoogleDan 20:38, 18 March 2013 (CET)
- Yeah, a stone walled 8x4 structure (temple?) to the left and a normal rock walled 3x2 fields chamber (treasure? barracks?) to the right. -- Bwijn 20:44, 18 March 2013 (CET)
- That's not reminding me of any PARTICULAR vault, but if you have any scrolls of magic mapping lying around, I'd suggest you use one just to see what's inside. --MoogleDan 20:49, 18 March 2013 (CET)
- None at hand. By the way the fighting abilities of a band of six humans surpass my SpAK capability to win. -- Bwijn 20:54, 18 March 2013 (CET)
- It was just the entry hall to the Vaults staircase. No vault guards but a simple band of "humans" guarding it. And I had never before encountered such a "common" gang. -- Bwijn 10:51, 23 March 2013 (CET)
