Icy Crypt feedback

Implosion used to be a dangerous party spell when it had an AOE. You had to be very careful with its use.

...well to give my input rather than completly tangeting: the crypt is nothin if ya have a good clerics in your party, but i never go there to level anyway......the only real reason to go down there would to be to kill the UE for his kukri's.

...and someone said somthing about building an implosion cleric? eeh.... i always laugh when someone walks up to me and the first thing they do is cast implode, as if they think it will take me down

...but who knows, if ya go nuts with the wisdom stat, there might be somthing promising there.

Another bit of Icy Crypt feedback.

I went in there on my own, with a Level 24 Cleric.
My Solar had no trouble killing all the undead and with some effective spells like Mass Heal I had an easy walk through.

The only problem was the Unknown Evil Chamber.
My Solar didn't transfer with me and I was run over by all the undead there.
I hope this can be solved somehow.

The undead in the crypt seem to drop something very often. I had gatherd about 400K of items and I couldn't bring everything.

I think the Icy Crypt is now a good place to go for items and xp.

Well you will find moss boss like chambers require more strategy then just bringing the buffed summons or even just just a group without summons, its showing up in a new room where you dont know where anyone is, having a plan, and a backup in case since escape isnt as easy

The cleric you had cast Hellball on that was 10 levels lower than you in Frostdale and survived only Injured was my implosion cleric, underestimation of an enemy leads to an eventual downfall.

UE's chamber has always been like that, you just have to be ready for it and have a strategy for cleaning it all out effectively.

I've had several toons that could solo it, just took a long time due to all the uncrittable hitpoints you had to chop thru. Not sure if a single cleric would have enough spellpower for a full spawn in that room, but maybe if they grouped nicely you could pare them down with some D2U's, then hack the rest down after. - if you enter the place invisible, you should be able to port in, then summon the solar/balor without the in-combat penalty, and just buff it reallly fast...

Hmm takes about 2 mins well planned solo or not. learn from your mistakes and change your tactics accordingly
