Empire Devrish, Vahnati Warrior and Demon are always good for me. I also have caught a Mage, Apprentice Mage, Empire Archer, Champion, Blademaster and also a couple of Imps. I tried to get a Doomguard, but it won't work. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. :ph34r: Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

For Exile 3, I captured the souls of an Order Mage and a Slith Archmage. A Quickghast may be good to have in some situations; a Crystal Soul may also be useful. It's a bad idea to capture a Doomguard, as any copies of the monster you summon will attack you. (697) Posts: 726 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |

Remember one very important thing though: If you're skill is not high enough, you're just wasting you SP. I had this many times. Evey time I wanted to catch a demon, it resisted. I caught an eyebeast, and tried to catch a soldier in Delis, but he resisted. I also caught a shambler, and something else, which I can't remember. Is it possible to have more than four creatures stored? You can only have four I think. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape. Co-designed with Nikki: El Presidente.

Yes, you're limited to four. The order in which the creature slots are filled is random, so if a newly-captured monster overwrites one you already had in there and wanted to keep, reload a saved game and try again. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Vahnatai lords are a good choice. You'll have to probably use the editor to reload your magicka. I once got an Order Mage, theyre okay.(I thought they were supposed to be immune to magic =\) -------------------- You can take my Windows XP when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Contrary to popular belief, being immune to magic doesn't make a monster immune to Capture Soul. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Basilisk and Ur-Basilisk yet. They are always useful. But then again sometimes Major Summoning will pick up 4 or 5 of them. -------------------- And everybody say....Yatta! Posts: 1287 | Registered: Thursday, August 14 2003 07:00 |

Empire archers are a huge plus. For the fact that they NEVER miss, and aren't random. When you summon them, you know what they'll do and they'll do it well. And can you acually capture a Crystal Soul? I've tried before but always resisted, every single time. I figured they were immune to it. Posts: 28 | Registered: Thursday, February 13 2003 08:00 |

I had an Order Mage and Empire Dervish. I toted around Drakes for a while before that. They make good initial targets, as well as Demons. Has anyone gotten a Haakai? Or Mung Demon? I'm not picky. -------------------- "What can you do with an anthropology degree other than study people?" "...Hunt people?" Posts: 1115 | Registered: Sunday, May 15 2005 07:00 |

My characters can mostly without the sanctuary. In exile games, I defeat them with or without it! They keep missing me.

Empire archers don't simply have godly accuracy, they just cannot miss regular shots. Stuff like sancuary is a different story though :) It's like how magic never misses, unless you have something like an anti-magic field around you. Empire Archers never miss the ENEMY, though :) Posts: 28 | Registered: Thursday, February 13 2003 08:00 |

In Exile 3, I got a Vahnatai Lord, Ur-Basilisk, Vahnatai Master, and Crystal Soul. In BoE, I only capture Basilisks/Ur-Basilisks, but I'm not going to discuss that here. -------------------- "Let us see what the new day brings." - Temas, Areni. Visit my realm!

I intended to capture a dragon, but apparently it was too big. Also, I wanted to capture the Mind Crystal, but it resisted my Level 50 character!! (I figured anything that big of a pain in the neck had to be good) Also, I haven't tried it, but I want to capture Rentar-Ihrono. After all, what would pulverize enemies better than an army of insanely powerful, completely invulnerable creatures? -------------------- Dragons rule!

I don't think its possible to caputire Rhentar-Ihrno, or any of the major characters like Erica. There resistance is probably maxed out, and I dont think a level 99 character could capture them. My Exile 3 list consists of Rahkshasha, Pack Leader, Vahnatai Lord, and Vahnatai Keeper. The Vahnatai lord is nice because it can use its own soul crystal to summon things like basilisks, and the pack leader is good because it hits like 6 times dealing a massive amount of damage. The rahkshasa is nice because i beleive its immune to magic, and the keeper is just something i havent really replaced. I think i used to use him as an archer since i think hes the disk thrower, not sure... -------------------- Behind my stare, the secrets lie. Behind my smile, I softly Cry.

To get a Vahnatai Lord, get a good amount of spell points so you can try more than once per session. Just keep reloading the game until you get the Vahnatai Lord. Don't get basilisks in your Soul Crystal. Get Ur-Basilisks. They're much better. They may resist, but just do the same as the Vahnatai Lord. -------------------- "Let us see what the new day brings." - Temas, Areni. Visit my realm! My Movies Rate My Scenarios!

The trouble with Ur-Basilisks is that it costs more than twice as many SP to Simulacrum them. In general, I'd rather summon two Basilisks than one Ur-Basilisk, and the former would cost me less SP. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

kinda surprising that only 1 person mentioned pack leaders. Anyway: 1: Pack Leader 2: Basilisk or Ur-Basilisk 3: Empire Archer 4: Any high power caster. (Vahnatai Lord, Order Mage, things of that sort.) Edit: replaced Empire Dervish with Empire Archer. Who needs a dervish when you got Pack Leaders? Sulfras would have kicked the crap out of me if I didn't have those. :P [ Saturday, September 03, 2005 07:21: Message edited by: Locke ] Posts: 13 | Registered: Thursday, August 25 2005 07:00 |
