In chapter 10 does anyone know, how to beat Death? So far what I do is set up life bombs all around, cast shield on myself, and teleport out, when he strikes with the sytche. But when many deaths sorround me and 1 comes after me, again and again, I usually can't time teleport out well enough, and eventually he gets me. Also I'm not sure, what it is, that damages him. He walks trough shields, and life bombs, and they don't throw him, yet still occasionally he is damaged by something, but I'm not sure what...

I even tried using ahk script, but even so it's just not fast enough...

#UseHook ;Script may use Hooks
#InstallKeybdHook ;Force the use of Hooks
SetKeyDelay, 50, 50, Play ;Delay between KeyDown/KeyUp and different Keys
;Now for the Spells:
1::SendPlay asaa{space} ;Teleport
2::SendPlay asf{space} ;Haste
3::SendPlay re{space} ;Time Warp

Using the trainer I just cast a life beam at him when he was close. When he splits just queue up the life beam and aim at what ever one is moving. Then if it becomes solid fire the beam. Not sure if you noticed but if you hit him with the beam it interrupts his attacks so you don't have to dodge. Hope this helps.

Thanks, it worked... But now I'm stuck at part, where yeti -s come. Not sure, how to kill em... they have lots of hp, are fast, can't be slowed, and 1 hit me. I could teleport escape from em for a while, but not after the part, where I get the elemental summon spell. An "untouchable" trainer option would be nice...

the cheapest method for that level is to go invisible and just walk right past every thing

You'll only face 2 yetis after getting the summon elemental book.

What you need to so is be invisible before zoning into the area where yetis climb up, summon some elementals to deal with them; in the mean time haste, shield, invisible and run for the door.


As for the outside part, spam summon undead so they become cannon fodder. You might have to run around a bit/teleport before the yetis change their attention to the undead. If you're quick with casting, use water to drench a yeti, then cold and that should freeze it just for enough time to use a beam of doom on it.


As far as death is concerned; just wait still with 5 healing queued, and your shift button down. The moment he turns corporeal hit rmb. Same thing counts for the mirror image surround phase.

You can throw down a ring or two of healing mines for the adds; but don't overdo it. When I practically covered the place up with them, he stopped spawning.

I managed to kill the yetis by using a steam (fire + water) + arcane + 3x lightning. You have to separate them and fight them one on one and if (when) they grab you keep the cast button held down. It usually hits them while your held for some reason and breaks you out. They then tend to use normal attacks which the trainer work on. This is just an alternate in case you didn't take the invisible staff (like me).

i use (steam steam lighning lighting arcane) beam and you can kill a yeti before it gets to you while only taking a damage form explosion. plus you only need to kill two yeti this level since you can stealth all the way by using invisibility book you get after dispatching those 2. Invisibility can be used continuously during that level since you only going visible for 1 sec during the recast action.

You actually find the invisibility spell at the beginning of that level. After the third yeti, I think, go all the way to the right and down (following the cliff) and you will walk down a slope that leads to the spell. This is before you enter the fort.
