Yikes! Tons of undead are attacking me!
  • 1 of 5: Yeah, and they're really, really annoying, especially at high level, where there are tons of vampires.
  • 2 of 5: It's easiest to cast Improved Invisibility and sneak past them, or use a hidden thief, or, if you're really good, fight them.
  • 3 of 5: Fire works well, as do protection and Haste spells galore.  Also, don't let yourself be level drained.  It's irritating.
  • 4 of 5: Then continue down a long corridor and fight either a bunch of normal wraiths, or a greater wraith, and take the key from the container in the middle of the room.
  • 5 of 5: You need the key to open up a door later in the dungeon.
