Since this was just discussed, and I just defeated him, this might be relevant.
Have no magic overhaul, no companions (did have Shadowmere, but she was off, chasing a Brigand)
I was level 8
Defeated him by using a unenchanted sword only (Moonbrand)
Used 8 Potion of Healing (9 pts for 5 secs) during the fight.
Was a tough fight.. but I never really thought I was in trouble.
Edit:
Lhotun's Wish is a Light Armor that Fortify Heavy Armor, is this intentional.
Sounds a bit odd, if nothing else because he usually restores his health back to full when it gets low, so difficult to take down with low leveled chars. But there are so many factors involved in how difficult something is on a particular level that it is hard to say if it's normal or not. And he is a "mid level" OOO boss, so not THAT difficult.
Yes, I've always found Lhotun's Wish set up a bit odd - but it's always been like that. Personally, I'm very hesitant about changing stuff in OOO as it is Sotobrastos vision/decisions, so I think OOO changes should deal with bugs, obvious tweaks, optimization etc. only. But I'll ask the OOO team what they think about it.
Ok here is probably a silly question, easy ways of making cash? The closest thing I have found is luring amazons into city entrances or other not-so-healthy places for them. I have never managed to work up enough cash to buy the more expensive houses.
I admit I am using enhanced economy, so getting a couple enchanted items won't exactly make me rich beyond compare
Why not customize EE so you'll get more money for items then? Not using it so I can't really give advice on easy ways to make money with OOO and EE. Without EE it's surely to dungeon crawl and sell stuff.
