Levels are necessary. Here's how to get some.\n\nCommentary:\n0:04 - Offscreen, I got to level 5. I want to gain some more levels, but I want to show off a couple of leveling and gold-gathering techniques that are handy for this part of the game. One is safe, easy, and slow. One gains levels really fast, but you're probably going to die a lot. Notice we have one 3rd Level Spell. Also, GISH hits twice.\n0:27 - OddEyes don't attack, but they have a special attack that paralyzes a Warrior. Very irritating. This is a good battle to show off Technique #1 (which I call Plundering)\n1:15 - ...yeah, those were some nice damage numbers, huh? LIT2 normally does 20-80 damage, the weakness cranks that up. Groups of Sahags will give 120-210 Gold, and some XP with it. You can then go back to Coneria and save at the Inn, getting your spell level back. It's slow, but pretty foolproof.\n2:19 - For Technique #2 we will need a FIR2 spell.\n4:33 - We will also need a few tents to save our game in the field. Now, let's head northeast.\n7:00 - Damnit. Stunning undead are a total pain in the ass. Good money, though.\n7:35 - This is the place. People call it by different names...I, however, call it the Pointy Finger Of Doom. Here, the map overlaps with an area just north of here (you can see it at the top of the screen). Yep, we're exploiting another bug. These monsters will normally destroy you at this level, so SAVE FIRST, unless you want to walk back every time.\n7:52 - Perfect. FrWolves have a Frost attack that does a lot of Ice damage to the party, but fairly low HP (for a monster this tough) and a weakness to fire. This is what we want. Also, ZomBulls are good here. Any other monster, run. So, fight them and throw a FIR2 at them, and pray your caster goes first.\n8:25 - He didn't. This is normally where you reset. Since resets wreak havoc with recording, I die like a man. Expect this to happen a lot. See you next video where I actually win one of these. For the record, that is incredibly sad music.
