Is it worth spending time letting the banshee massacare the living trees for you?.
I've just lured her up to the level and have received in almost no time a RODJS, and 1 SOCR.
Now My char is a lot faster than her, good fireball spell level, 44 WI, and a lot of excellent bolt ability.
How long should I spend picking up the loot before it becomes almost like cheating, or she becomes an unkillable demi god?

It's worth it, but, in my case, it always causes an error eventually.
Too many items lying on the floor can crash the game :(

Now with the RODJS, I have various options.
Khelly is already saved, and seven SOCR in the bag.
Climbing training is going to be easy, as I'm in the thieves guild, so the rift and more SOCR are on the way.
Ultra ending is looking closer than ever.
Now I'm planning on getting Seven league boots with my one wish.
Firstly, is this the best plan?
Secondly, what do I wish for? Worn boots of Seven League Boots?

What you want to do is enclose her with doors... she can't teleport; you can. Then you lead her back and forth (make sure your speed is high enough), until a satisfactory amount of items has dropped. Pick up the items, teleporting trees away from them if you must, and skedaddle--she's probably capable of killing Andy at this point.

Lock her behind the door, and run. Or, if you're feeling REALLY godlike, stand at door and fireball. After a long time of balling, you can hope she will drop. If she does, prepare to hit level 50.
Homework is not meant for home! It's a sick verbal coincidence!

Umm... Fireball, in the forest?

Baaad idea...

If you must fireball her to death, first lure her into a structure like this, over the stairs down in the Forest, after having opened the entrance in Darkforge:
########
#++++++.
#+>/G./.
#++++++.
#.......


All doors must be locked before you can proceed. Lock all doors except the two doors to either side of the Banshee; you'll want those open because you have to go through them.

You want to lure the Banshee to the spot she's in on the map; you do this by approaching the stairs from the right, having a higher speed than her and closing and locking the door to her left before she can get there. Then you teleport to her right and close and lock that door.

After that, teleport to the stairs; it's safe to Fireball all you like because the trees can't get to you now.

If you can trap her in a single square, you won't need a WIS high enough to reach her on the secnod square; but that's more dangerous.

Perhaps the Banshee's screaming will protect the PC when fireballing?

She doesn't scream every turn; also, once you've killed enough trees (and they'll come for you if they're mad), they get pretty experienced so that a couple of blows can get you.

Better to play it safe.

Thanks guys

Lured her off the level, DV 88, didnt get hit once. Fireballed her into oblivion.

Bit disappointed by the final loot collection.
1 Rodjs
2 SOCR
No ball spell books

Was hoping for potion of cure corruption and scroll of danger to save time in the ultra ending quest.

On the plus side, my WI is now 51 (sword of Nonak), now if I add the orb (+10), and another 2/3 potions of willpower or gain attrutes, I'm going to start blasting entire levels with my now rather awesome fireball ability.

That's actually not half bad; a wish and two SoCR will come in handy.
