[Act 2] Solo Warlock - Avatar of Myrkul - Honour Mode
Вставка

- After stomping the Mind Flayer Colony I was feeling pretty good, but still got quite nervous since this is where I died last run. I don't think I made any big mistakes but there's some small details that could be improved. Like pre-buffing weapon round before using Misty Step to get down to Myrkul. Overall I'm satisfied with the outcome.

Thank you so much for watching my video(s)! - Ігри
Myrkull got buffed between runs too! A true accomplishment!
Also, no Dame Aylin but additional Isobel as enemy in this run 😅
Congratulations! Sweet, SWEET VICTORY! Well deserved revenge!
Thank you. Revenge feels great! :D
Damn I didn't know that blinding Myrkul makes him unable to use Finger of Death, very usefull to know. Good job!
Thanks! Someone told me that it does not work with Darkness, but Hunger of Hadar works fine :)
Here we go!
GGs! Myrkul always is the hardest boss for me. You made it look way too easy!
Dunno why this doesn't have more views. I really like this series! Keep going
Hey, thanks! I agree, wiped here on my previous run so this was great revenge :)
I did post it today but I generally get around 1.5k-2k views on my videos (some exceptions). I don't really do a lot of promoting either I guess heh.
Nicely done. The battle of liches.
Thank you :)
Well prepared and well excecuted!
Also, I should value mage hand more highly. Got a lot of usage here.
Thanks! I was a little bit worried that they would find a way to explode the grenades but it worked out in the end :)
Damn, Druids don't have access to mage hand. I wonder if summons can throw...
@@Stonepot113 High Elf’s does though:)
@@FriendlyLich I took minor Illusion which I have no regrets about!
@@Stonepot113 Fair enough =)
Nice use of the mage hand. Revenge is sweet.
Indeed it is! Felt so damn good :)
I never ever get tired of fighting Ketheric and watching Myrkul spawn in. From the voice acting to the atmosphere to the music, this scene never fails to give me chills. To me its the best Boos fight in the game only second to Rafael
100% agree. I’m not sure if I would chose this or Raphael as nr 1. Both are incredibly awesome in their own way. When Myrkul gives the speech is top notch. Absolutely love it
Truly impressive. This is one of the hardest bosses to solo, especially since you didn't cheese it via explosives & co.
Thank you kindly! 🙏 I planned the entire build around being level 10 for this very fight and it payed off :)
Placing down bombs for the Mage Hand to throw blew my mind
Happy to hear :)
@@FriendlyLich Mage hand artillery is awesome!
Nicely done Lich!!! :) nice use of terrain and scrolls, abilites etc.
Took Wyll there last time to get his rapier from Mizora, and accidentally found out how good Hunger of Hadar is in this fight.
Thank you. It’s the spell that keeps on giving:)
Uhh been looking forward to this one. Bookmarked so I can check it out later when I've got the time. Glad you got him!
Felt so good. Vindication! :D
Well done with mage hand being a slinger, I would add this trick to my arsenal, that was smart
Thank you :)
Yas!!! Grats!! That was awesome.. i was a bit worried if you could do it.. but you did
Thanks :D Feels pretty dang awesome
Congratulations!! Amazing battle
Thank you :)
Revenge is a dish best served cold! Good job!)
You got that right! Felt awesome :D
Wow, Kudos! Revenge achieved! :D
Thanks! Feels great! 😊
I'll probably keep editing the comment as I go, especially since I probably won't be able to watch the whole thing rn but.
@editor's comment 00:54. I mentioned under another video, or maybe a post, I started a solo run (on tactician). I also started toying with Minor Illusion. Not Myrkul grade (yet), but I did pull away every single person from Gimblebock's group (on the outside of the building where Withers has his beauty sleep), far enough to make it 1v1 with surprise 😂. (I think I only did Withers and talked to Kagha on that save so far, though).
Hehe you're going for a run with as little social interaction as possible?
@@FriendlyLich my Durge is an older elf (maturity slider set to 100) who so far killed Lae'zel and Astarion and ate I MEAN TOOK a helping hand from Gale, because she cannot be bothered pretending she doesn't wanna kill everything that moves in her vicinity. So, she WILL flood this world with blood. After all...
INTESTINES THROB, BLOOD WHISPERS.
Also, unrelated, but I gotta get to watching your newest uploads, they've backlogged on my side like camp events, lol. Haven't even finished this one yet 🙈.
@@Kasiarzynka Haha no pressure, unlike Gale the videos will be there for when you find the time :)
Also, your Durge run sounds like a lot of fun. Paint the world red!
@@FriendlyLich "In Bhaal's Name." 😊
Brilliant! Vengeance for your previous incarnation!!
Redemption! \o/
Holy shit you made it. I noticed you’re immune to frightened, how’d you get that?
I’m stuck at this exact spot in my Shadowheart solo honour run because I can’t deal enough damage to Mrykul with him healing but using the hammer is insane! Genius! Huge brain!
Also no longer an honour run because I quit out a few times when he spawned in about 30 necromites and it was taking 5 minutes per turn
I learned from my last attempt that Protection From Good And Evil helps a lot in this fight. Check this out:
"The target is protected against Aberrations, Celestials, Elementals, Fey, Fiends, and Undead. These creatures have Disadvantage. Disadvantage on Attack rolls against the target, and the target can't be Charmed, Frightened, or possessed by them."
damn that was clean! bet it felt good after what happened the last run
Feels amazing :)
You can skip being lethargic by drinking another speed pot with 1 turn left
Yeap!
NIce! It was bit of a close one on the last turn, If that hit would have not finished him, we could have seen some single digit healths on the next turn :D
Oh yes, sort of likely even with decent AC! :)
Insane
Thank you :)
The truth is he never stood a chance lol! GG
Good to see you win it this time, well done! Excited to see how Act 3 will go! Do you intend to do every fight?
Thank you 🙏🏻. Feels just awesome. I’m not sure how many I’ll do but I’m aiming at doing most of the bigger fights at least. Anything in particular you’d like to see?
@@FriendlyLich Ooooh how evil do I want to be today? Seeing Raphael and Ansur would be very interesting but also those are super scary lol
@@GwenCabrol-ih5rj Raphael is coming today :)
That was a good fight. Seriously well done.
Do you keep a list nearby of things not to forget or is your battle instinct just so reliable?
Thank you very much! It took a lot of prep work and theory crafting :)
I do as you suspected have notes for some fights, specially encounters like this.
I like to write down pre-buffing (like tripple check pact weapon!), checklist for various parts in fights. For example to keep an eye on platform before taking out Ketheric.
Or if I plan to use Mage Hand, make sure that is out before popping Invisibility and such.
my strategy here is almost always put Haste on the nightsong :D But solo warlock without her is really hard, nice job tho!
Thanks! I did haste her vs Ketheric in my previous run and she kinda slaps then :) Although it stinks when she unloads on a Necromite heh
@@FriendlyLich Tip for that: the char you use to free nightsong i also used it to cast Dimension door so i get her just on top of myrkul. that way the AI doesnt mess up.
@@gomugomujosh649 That's 100% iq move. Thanks!
Huh, so I guess it was a bug when Myrkul just kept healing through my arrows of ilmater. Wasn't sure with all the updates.
That sounds like a bug yes. I agree, sometime you don't know if it's a bug or not :)
What are the protection from evil scrolls for? Immunity to frightened?
Exactly!
How did you even get 27 strength and 25 charisma. I thought elixir of cloud giant was not available until act 3 and increasing charisma i can’t think of any other way than taking asi and hag’s hair. Im new to the game, just finished act 2
I forgot where I got the cloud giant elixir, it might have been a vendor or finding it in random loot. But it is a rare find afaik. The charisma is due to a buff from Shar. It's a mini puzzle at the big statue in Act 2. Can get INT/WIS/CHR +5 there until next Long Rest. There's also a shrine in Shar's Gauntlet where you can get resistance to necrotic until next Long Rest. :)
@@FriendlyLich cheers mate, insanely impressive feat. Ketheric alone took me 5 tries to get through and Mykrull alone took me days, I learned a lot from your vids.
@@_minhan9191 Thank you! Glad to hear that you picked up stuff from my shenanigans 😊. My very first try on Myrkul was on Tactician with a full party and I think i party wiped at least 4 times. So you're not alone :)
