I was picking them off one by one using Farsight and Fire Bolt. It was remarkebly easy and efficient, I gained two levels just by clearing the below piece of the map. Unfortunately that last one managed to come at me at exactly the wrong diagonal angle, and it moved the last square and tore me apart before I had time to cast a spell. Wonder if it would have made a difference if I hadn't been berserk at the time... If you are a bit more carefull this seems like a great place to level a wizard though, those greater claw bugs are worth bundles of exp and fall easily to a basic fire bolt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Screenshot ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TTT .... ....... ... ........
