Quest 14: Can you do this to the boss?

Postby Schmidt » July 28th, 2013, 9:24 am

It says he can't be harmed by spells, but can you use "Sleep" or any other non-harmful spells?

EDIT: Nevermind. It was just a poor translation to Danish. In the UK version he can't be affected at all.

Since he can only be harmed by the spirit blade i asume that he is undead (the fact that he was resurrected 2 quests before this backs it up ;)), so can he be killed with a simple holy water thrown at him?

No.
He's the Evil Lich King of (Un)Death. He can be hurt by the Spirit Blade and NOTHING ELSE.

Holy Water specifies that it can destroy skeletons, zombies, and mummies.

According to everybody here he is not really undead, more like resurrected. Only :mummy: , :zombie: & :skeleton: are undead.

That's right.
Characters are never treated under regular monster rules when stats and rules are explicitly given for them.
There's no reason to assume any undeath rules and regulations for the Witch-Lord. It's clearly outlined in every quest how to handle him.

On a side note: In my rules, 0 Mind points equals Undeath. 1 is animal or animal intelligence and so forth.

It says he's not effected by spells... so in Quest 12, suppose he blocks off the exit and heroes can't pass him. So the Wizard casts Veil of Mist to get passed him. But if the Witch Lord is unaffected by spells, he should technically be able to see through the magic and prevent any hero from passing him...

In like manner, suppose you're using the Elf spells as well... if the hero with the Spirit Blade is fighting the Witch Lord and the Elf casts "Double Image" on him, in like manner wouldn't the Witch Lord be able to see around the illusion and attack the real hero?
