Stonekeep Hints

Skeletons

  • LOCATIONS:
    The First Level of the Feeding Grounds
    The Caverns of Ice
    The Palace of the Shadows

    DESCRIPITION:
    - Skeletal with a helm and a longsword
    - There are two kinds: a short one and a tall one

    ATTACK CHARACTERSTICS:
    - They slash away manically with their longsword
    - Once destroyed, they'll reanimate in around five seconds (once only), if you don't pick up one of their body parts

    SUGGESTIONS FOR KILLING THEM:
    If you have the Shadow Weapon on The Palace of the Shadows level, you'll wipe the floor with them.  If you're still looking for it, use the Invisible Rune from The Faerie Realm to sneak by them, or to kill them without them even noticing (but be careful -- it's hard to kill them while you're invisible because they'll continue to walk around).  Also, when you do kill them, pick up a part of their body that falls so they don't come back to life.  If you can't reach one, smash it to bits if you can.
