  • No damage was taken during this fight (sort of). Honestly this is one of the best defensive spell in the game. During this fight, there are many things I wish I had done differently but nevertheless I'm really relieved.

    I accidentally broke it even further. Inside the globe of invulnerability Hope managed to cast divine intervention repeatedly without consuming it. She basically nuked the area each turn (without taking damage frome retaliation of course). I don't know if it was intended to work like this or just a glitch.

      For me I was saving the barrel of smokepowder I stole back in act 1, I basically made Gale invisible because he didn't have that good initiative and then cast the globe of invulnerability, convinced Yurgir to join us and he basically set off the explosive, which didn't kill everyone per say but did destroy 3/4 soul pillars, then the rest was cleaned up by my cleric casting divine intervention and Hope too.

      used it during channeling the crown, however I think if AI would choose to push you out of the radius it could be waste of 6th lvl spell, not sure how AI behaves in higher difficulties (went for mid one, second run will go for highest)

    The Globe is so old I kept using it before Honor mode even existed
    But I always used Hope as a healer. plus her Banishment spell has a unique side effect. She can banish an unwanted guest from the house permanently, and she can cast it twice. I left the Divine intervention untouched and it was still easy going enough :D

    @Ackadia 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +22

    I used barrlemancy to destroy all the pillars and most of the cambions instantly, then I finished the fight by using Shadowhearts Command: Grovel every round.
    At Spell DC 25+ it's 100% to make Raphael (etc) grovel for the round. He bascially can't fight back.
    Elixir of Initiative helps here too, making sure you get critical attacks in early.

      @ponolus3  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That's really good! I presume you pick the right answer at the Mirror of Loss for the extra stats, right? As for the barrelmancy, I used it on Ansur since that was the fight I struggled the most.

      @@ponolus3 Globe is basically a cheat code for Ansur also. Any normal team, like monk + sorc/wiz + cleric + swords bard/fighter/whatever can lay waste to him with impunity. I'm doing a solo honor run now, and I'm inclined to just barrelmancy him also =) But I am giving strong consideration to a fire sorc with globe up also. I'm just not sure I'll get anough actions if focusing on globe instead of haste, and if I use a haste potion I could well go lethargic before getting the kill...Maybe I'll compromise in between with just *some* barrelmancy.
