Final Boss hints (Spoilers)

Post by Nintendan »

I'm on the TRUE final boss and I'm totally lost. I've used most of my items on the boss before this (Didn't just rushing him which worked half way into the battle). So I'm limited on health and really confused about his shield ability. I've gotten him down to half health, first 25% right when he spawned the other 25% I have no clue how. I don't think it has anything to do with the clones, because I can damage him at points while they are still alive. I'm thinking I might need to make him hit the faces with his spells, but not totally sure and there are so few faces. I loved Grimrock two so but sick of this boss, any and all tips would be great.

I think the shield just breaks if you attack it enough.

I had the same problem, then I went berserk and just nuked him with all I had and he went down.

The shield seems to disappear after a certain amount of damage absorbed.

Took him down now finally after few attempts and what I have learned:

First off, only one of the wizards is the real one, others don't matter.

The shield seems to be like the ones in Grimrock 1, enough damage and it goes away for a while.

My key to success was getting as high resistances as I could on one melee dude, had two at 100, and rest near 90, works wonders.

I used several of the blue healing gems to keep my party alive. I had so many healing potions thanks to my alchemist that I had stockpiled 9 gems in total throughout the game.

Like someone said in the other thread
SpoilerShow
just enter a 2x2 room, opened by trickster.. follow him around with invisibility.
(Follow trickster for a while then lead him to a 2x2 room that he opens... try not to kill him... the room with the longest view is best. You might have to lead him around the dungeon for a bit till the creatures are loosed.)
to make it even easier

When in 2x2 room with boss seal the room with the scepter of ruling. If you are quick u can seal trickster in one, and kill them both.

Force fields last a long time from this wand, can even sleep, lol.

I used 2 healing potions and a couple of energy potions to prime up bane, harvest time killed him though as soon as I got critical from second heavy specialist
