About the Demilich : she's way to predictible , she can be circled just timing :
Mantle , dispell ( she dispells you ) , isaacs ( she mantles up ) , mantle ( she uses an offensive spell ) then dispell , etc .

And somtimes I got her to use her sling but sometimes not , and she never used any epics on me .

The epic spells are set to trigger when your life is down to a certain point, below 250 HP I think. Thanks for the analysis of the AI though I will work to improve it.

Would you suggest a slightly randomized AI where sometimes it will skip mantle to cast an offensive spell after it dispels?

I think it should be able to dodge when you cast a groud dispell :D

Not randomizing the AI but ... ( I dunno if it's possible , I am a total noob at computer stuff ) making the AI more ... defensive , using her massive hp to protect her like : both of the caster and the demilich are unmantled , instead of going for an offensive spell like she usually does , making her wait a bit seeing if the human caster mantles up ( then she mantle OR dispell if she has like 100 hp more than the hp of the human caster ) , if the human caster uses an offensive spell she uses one too because it will hit .
Btw some ground spell would be good like fire cloud and the black tentacle thing :)

A question : Should I say "it" instead of "she" :D ?

Good ideas up there, I'll work on it. You can call it whatever you want, Demiliches are too ancient to really be affected by whatever gender they once were.

Two New Monster for You![/span]
Finally got around to finishing off these 2 creatures while I was away. One is a new boss!

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']Ephemeral Shadowswyft[/span][/span] [span style=\'color:red\']Boss![/span]
Outsider
[attachmentid=451]

Look out behind you 420!
[attachmentid=452]

The Ephemeral Shadowswyft is possibly the deadliest assassin in all the planes. No one knows how many exist or if it is a unique entity. Shrowded in darkness, silence and secrets, it is an enigma even to the other inhabitants of the Plane of Shadow.

[span style=\'color:blue\']Combat[/span]

Aura of Silence (Su): The Ephemeral Shadowswyft is constantly under the effects of Silence (as the spell). This is a Supernatural ability that can be suppressed or reactivated as a free action.

Self Concealment (Su): Because of the Ephemeral Shadowswyft's quasi-incorporeal nature all melee and ranged attacks made against it have a 50% miss chance.

Hide in Plain Sight: The Ephemeral Shadowswyft can use the Hide skill even while being observed.

Sneak Attack: Extra damage dealt to targets that are flat-footed, flanked or can't see the attacker.

Death Attack: Chance that a sneak attack will paralyze.

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'][span style=\'color:blue\']Spellstitched Alhoon[/span]

Undead
[attachmentid=453]

How to remove your opponent's brain in 3 easy steps:

1. Stun your opponent with a mind blast.
[attachmentid=454]

2. Wrap tenticals around helpless opponent's head.
[attachmentid=455]

3. Suck out brain, drop mindless husk. If anyone is still alive, repeat process.
[attachmentid=456]

Spellstitched Alhoons are the paragon of lichdom for Mind Flayers. In addition to the incredible power they gain from becomming a lich, they are further fortified with arcane power through the magical runes carved into their bodies. All intelligent beings fear the Spellstitched Alhoon, even other Illithids.

[span style=\'color:blue\']Combat


Undead Properties: Spellstitched Alhoons are immune to mind affecting spells/effects, disease, poison, Critical Hits, Death Magic, Sneak Attacks and Negative Energy Damage.

Lich Properties: Spellstitched Alhoons are immune to Cold and Electricity damage.

Spellstitched Properties: The runes covering the Spellstitched Alhoon's body give it Spell Resistance (50 SR) as well as unleashing a Lesser Missle Storm on anyone that physically attacks it.

Mind Blast (Sp): The Spellstitched Alhoon can release 2 types of psionic mind blast to stun opponents. The first is the standard cone attack employed by all Mind Flayers. The Second is a 10' radius mind blast centered on the Spellstitched Alhoon. Both types of psionic attack have a DC 70.

Extract (Ex): A Spellstitched Alhoon can automatically extract the brain of a helpless target within melee range, killing it instantly.

Weakening Touch (Su): A Spellstitched Alhoon can drain strength with it's touch.

Well, from personal experience, the Ephemeral Shadowswyft is NOT nice to play hide and seak with...

Soon I'll add an Arena Area where you can spawn the various GodSpire creatures to battle with.

We ought to make a small adventuring area in GS not including the dungeon. GS capable builds only and there will be 1 creature at a time with increasing difficulty.

Yes I know... I have no idea why these random animals are carrying 148 gold and a magic fire ring. It will be forever a mystery![/span]

It is official... we will have war one day with our own AI's... unless of course some damn bacteria/virus whipes 90% of the human race off the planet, leaving the last 10% to die from simpler diseases... the inevitable...
