Halfling Berserker, save a couple hp potions for the dragon elites, but use all the rest immediately for extra damage. Take taurog asap and tri-sword. Regen fight boss one. Whupaz regen and unstoppable fury boss 2

The Avatar: You ever tried Dragon Isle with a Monk now that Tri-Sword has bee nerfed? I wonder if you still think Monks are a usuable class.

I haven't tried it with the new tri-sword, but with the old tri-sword I had to save half the map for the boss. Funny thing is I didn't even use a whupaz potion.

The problem with the new monks is you need to use humans for the -%. I think you should simply remove the -% or lower it considerably, because even without it -2 base damage is crippling with the new tri-sword.

Well even without Whupaz Halfling berserker should do the trick. Just regen fight boss 1, then use your few saved potions on the elites, and last regen fight and unstoppable fury the Matron.

I feel like a total n00b saying this, but, how do you mean, regen fight?

Okay the first boss does 36 (half of 75). You do 105. Hit him as much as you can and then regenerate till you can tank another shot. Assuming this is 4 tiles (5 maybe) he heals 40. You hit him for 105 and deal a net damage of 65. Repeat this technique till he dies. Save 4 potions for the dragon elites, and with enough regeneration, piety, and 2 altars you can desecrate--50 piety for another unstoppable fury--you should be able to pull it off. Also, with the new elite items added if you bring an orb of Zot with you berserker camp is a breeze. (Orb lowers max hp so he can't regen until he's halfway down and it lowers his berserk %)

Hi,
I need some help with this quest. Wrote a new thread about it but it's been almost 24 hours and it still hasnt been approved. So, in the meantime, could some kind soul give me a few tips how to beat it with 3 classes, including races/prep and what gods to look for? I have unlocked most of the game content by now, had no problems with any dungeon so far, this is my first vicous one.
