A wise kobold would fear the forces of Hell, and certainly would not set up a highly lucrative transdimensional trade in damned souls. But Pikel is better known for his whip than his wisdom, mercilessly tormenting his piteous charges as he ferries them to their buyers. |
Contents
Useful Info
Pikel the Slaver is a unique big kobold who has a number of human slaves under his command. He is dangerous on his own, wielding an enchanted whip of flaming (40% chance), freezing (40%), or electrocution (20% chance, and by far the most dangerous). With the help of his slaves he is more than a match for most low-level characters. If you can manage to kill him, however, his slaves will be freed and become friendly toward you.
Location
- The Dungeon:4-9
Tips & Tricks
- If you intend to face him in melee, don't allow any of his slaves to reach you; he does enough damage on his own. Facing him in a hallway or luring him upstairs helps.
- Confusion through Mephitic Cloud can disable him and his slaves easily, often with lethal results. For a more amusing death, however, you can charm him with a wand of enslavement; the slaves are freed once it connects, and will tear him to pieces when his charmed state ends. Bear in mind that you don't get XP for slave kills, unfortunately.
- Although killing the slaves provides you with no XP, you may wish to anyway. Once they've gone free, they will start killing everything they come across on the floor, robbing you of XP opportunities. That being said, if you don't mind them stomping the floor flat, let them go nuts.
History
Prior to 0.14, he would only spawn with a whip of flaming or electrocution.
