Labyrinth question

Postby AshOfCaine » Sun Jan 06, 2008 4:28 am

Anyone spend a lot of time in the Labyrinth dungeon? Had my stealther down there to get artificats and suddenly I get revealed and as i run off to hide, 4 drakes come out of no where and I am dead. As I walk through the gray world I notice a message in my journal that reads:
ominous shadow alerts you to danger from above


So I shake it off, go get my rez and go back, this time realize one of the reasons I get revealed is cause of the large area effect fire damage Pyre does. Get killed by something casting magic, this is when I realize Pyre has magery, go figure.

Then 3rd trip in I get revealed and another strange message:
you hear a rush of air from above as you are attacked by air elementals!


Now some Air Elementals have popped in out of the blue. Luckily the minotaur items I was grabbing are blessed so I just walked out and decided I was just have a bad luck day.

Now, the question is what is going on with all the stuff I never seen there before jumping me?

Its been a while so i might be a little off but as i remember it:
There are certain locations within the Labrynth that are monster spawn points, but unlike normal spawn points they spawn based on the presence of a player character. So when you pass thru these locations it spawns a group of enemies and those are the messages for their spawning. and since they appear they all have a passive reveal chance and you were revealed.

You got it right. And pyre has a pretty big range to avoid. I always steath in with nothing on so when I die nothing lost and the items are blessed and come with for the ride (as you mentioned).

Are those spawn locations as specific as a few tiles? Because i have been all the way back to the back several times and never spawned anything.

Yeah, after that first insurance loss I went in with bare minimum, unfortunately my char is dependent on 3 items for stealth +skill, so went in with just those 3 to minimize my insurance loss.

Now, 2nd question, as anyone ever done a peerless in the Labyrinth? All I have been able to find is that there is one and that 'key gathering' is based on how much you kill, but could it also be based on triggering these special spawns and killing them? Seems like it would be a hard peerless since there doesn't appear to be a boss area so would still have the regular spawn to deal with.
