He said AFTER he ran out of MP and I'm haveing a fair bit of trouble as well. Id'e think Riptide would help but I don't have it... he would not ran out off MP if he would use undead giant

right, so you're suggesting I use my single most inaccurate attack to kill something with 3000 HP and which can do 100+ damage to me once every three turns. I don't know if it's just me but I can see some flaws in that plan.
edit: I think I've found something that works. Shiny Boy (I got some monsters I could beat with it) and Raynar's Ultimate Blade. The special drains 300 HP and pretty much fully heals me. edit again: oh, and the Guardian Angel and my obligatory Nerfbat.
edit YET AGAIN: Guess what? Being able to outdo what it blocks is no use at all. The cannon heals itself by 70 every turn, so I need to get about a hundred JUST TO KEEP ITS HP THE SAME. I physically CANNOT hit that high. The fact that I don't have the time or patience to farm for Reign does NOT give the staff the right to come up with things this stupidly powerful. Even with the ye olde unbalancede spellses, this thing is NOT something I can/would be able to/have EVER been able to beat.

If your attacks actually MISS on a 0 defence monster, I have to say, your character sucks, and I think I even will throw a "lol" there.
Anyway. Don't use Shiny Boy, because once you change the armor, you can't re-equip it(unless they fixed this by now). Energy-resistant armor everytime it gets to the firing turn, then Undead Giant until it is ready to fire again.
If you still can't win, level up 19238 levels and try again.

I would very much like to shoot you for being so unhelpful but luckily for you I have no idea where you live.
I don't HAVE an energy-resistant armor and I have no idea where to find one. Since this thing is already 7 levels above me I'm guessing it's scaled and therefore leveling up will only make it more impossible, if that's possible (which I'm not sure it is).

It is sort of hard to be helpful when it seems you already have no chance to beat the enemy you are trying to defeat. You catch my drift? And since levelling up brings gold, and gold brings ubers, and ubers bring 100% victory rate(in most fights), it is pretty much the most viable option to any "I can't defeat this enemy" situation. Grab your Blade of Awe(if you have it, if not, ignore this part) and hope for PWD. It might be 1% chance, but from the sound of your posts, it is a lot better than any other option that you have. But fine, lets see your char and try to come up with something. First look really gives me no strategy to suggest from what has already been said, or you have told to have tried. The only thing that I can think of is that you start a preparation for this one fight(which sucks, srsly. CURSE YOU NIGHTBANE AND YOUR FIRST BOSS FIGHT). Paladin, Lay on Hands, Dragonslayer(both versions), Call Forth the Fire Dragon, before that freeze the jerk with Wizard and Frostbite(with the 0 defence the cannon has, 2 turns of being frozen GET). Spam the Fire Dragons, punch a large portion of the darn things HP away, then start spamming with your Necromancer or whatever and pray. When low on HP/MP, or both, Paladin and Lay on Hands for full recovery. Guardian Angel as guest, because the random chance of full recovery just might save you, or not. The only thing that can do damage with you, what you need that is, would be Undead Giant, for 30 MP you get 540% base and random damage of your weapon, stats don't matter. Undead Mutant does 1k% base and random total, 200% both base and random with each hit, but it does cost more MP. That, and the stupid armor plating decreasing from EVERY HIT would probably lower the damage you deal to such low amount, that it would help very little, or not at all. So yeah, Undead Giant, probably Salvation Blade(I assume this is the Ice version, 7-28) or Bad-Axe(Water one? Probably), but that has a special that might mess you up, so Salvation Blade would be my choice. If that still doesn't work... well, darn. That's all I have really, and it is the most worst of advice one can give, because it actually requires quite a lot of playing, getting everything loaded and... yeah. Sucks to be you. The only good thing in the warchest though is the Shiny Boy armors, so yeah.

it is indeed the ice version, since I like having a weapon without a special.
if the Zardwarts Wand still worked I'd use that. actually, I have all day to do it, so I might as well go with the charge skills.

you know...you could always do the way i did it
Lavistria's Bow+ Berserker Hides+ Iron Thorn( not necessary)+ Fairy God Mother+ Beast Master Pet
i used all of that and i killed it pretty quickly..

But your character focuses on a few stats. LoC's has all-around spread stats, which is the worst choice, BUT THIS IS A GAME PEOPLE, NOT A WAY OF LIFE.
Play the game the way you want, srsly.
Anyway. I think if he bothered to change his stats to a more "conventional" style, like Warrior, Mage, Beastmaster and whatever there are again instead of "Jack of All Trades, but Master of None", he might fare better.
But like said, it's a game, we play how we want.
So yeah.

the problem is that I don't have the gold to retrain them. I could easily untrain them for the points to spend, but not put them back again. Being able to afford one of these private trainers on the new estate houses would apparently be cheaper, but I can't actually afford to buy the house >.>
edit: as much as I'm going to hate the death count this will give me, I'm going to go for PWD/Guardian Dragon. At least ONE of them's got to happen, right?
edit: You guys will not BELIEVE the nerve of this thing. I got PWD (screenshotted) AND IT REDUCED THE DAMAGE BY 31. yes, it survived. for one turn. Yay for undead giant.

...wow.
Great going on the coding then.
But anyway.
GREAT SUCCESS.

I'm very tempted to sing Still Alive, and not only because this armor is a robot. The only problem with it is that it's considerably weaker than the temp. one, which I now assume is the Sparkle Boy.
