Best I understand, flanking immunity is a carryover from tabletop that doesn’t show up in the inspection of the elemental

The biggest weakness of this Elemental is that it's melee with 20 movespeed. So if you dont have 40 AC tank you can just kite him to the death around the table. Buff you most capable fighter, give him glaive, put off armor (if he wear any), enlarge and do the job. Works for me pretty well)

I appreciate the style of these video's but i think they would be enhanced by a vocal summary or highlight while you show the buffs/spells on screen. I would just fill the time prior to the gameplay starts so it can keep the videos short, which i appreciate. But the lack of audio is missed compaired to your first couple explainer videos

[@DjaliPlays]

Thanks for the feedback.
I probably won't include voice audio for a bit. It was the most time-consuming part of making the early videos, and I want to move forward with the playthrough. Soon, I'll have to set this project aside for a brief while again.
But I'll keep it in mind for later.

Impressive, that cold bugger is a tough cookie.
Vital Strike really doing some work
How did you know he prefers cleave over slam when there are multiple targets?
Personal experience?

[@DjaliPlays]

I keep restarting runs, so I've become quite familiar with the Shield Maze. I've also done some tests on a different save before this run. This kind of behavior is also pretty normal for enemies with AoE abilities.
For example, the Alchemist in the Grey Garrison (the one giving some kind of lecture and dropping the +2 Dex belt) will only throw bombs if you're clumped up.

Is this on Core?

[@DjaliPlays]

@@genehenson8851 Unfair. As you can see by the stat numbers of the monsters.
