> > I need a lot of help with this one. Usually any time I face any kind of dragons, at least 2 people get killed (sometimes it's 4 with the other 2 barely hanging on for life). I have been using razors (with my druid), firebomb (with my sorcerer), and pesilence (with my wizard) because those are the highest spells to kill monsters that they know right now. What spells can I use to kill them? > > > > Quack Quack knows sorcerer spells 1-26. > > Moo Moo knows wizard spells 1-28. > > And Kitty knows Sorcerer spells 1-22 and wizard spells 1-22. > > > > I will be so thrilled if anyone can help me.

You might want to use Sorcerer spell 21, if it works well, but it doesn't work on some monsters. Also, Fire Dragons will be resistant to fire spells, and so on. Certain higher Sorcerer spells that you're on the verge of learning will be very useful for dragons and other strong enemies. > > Try to take out the largest group of breathers first, and then work on the others. A bunch of dead dragons does less damage than three bunches of wounded ones. I find that it's often useful to inflict two group-damage spells on the same group of monsters, just to make sure it's dead. > > Don't forget that a fast swordsman can take out many monsters at once.

Every time I use spell 21, it doesn't work. I really do like spell 20 because it works (usually) no matter what. You're right for me to go through my spells to see which one works best. And usually my assassins and rogue can kill a group of 5-6 monsters by themselves.
One thing I did learn is that running away doesn't work. I had a group of monsters I ran into and when I saw what it had (2 groups of eyestalks, a group of dragons, and a group of ghosts), I tried running away four different times, one right after another and it didn't work. I nearly got myself killed again! Luckily, my sorcerer had enough points to cast HOME.
But I do have another question. I found a big room with a monster that moves around and a line of 7 monsters at the bottom and they have treasure chest in front of them. Before entering, there is a sign that says "Storage Area". I believe that this is the room that has the bronze key. Am I right or am I wrong? If I'm wrong, don't tell me where it is. Thanks.
