So i did some trys on lady mel this weekend and i have to say she is the hardest peerless for me so far. Even slasher or stygian dragon is by far easier for me.
First try i went in with the disco / music bushido paladin build i used for slasher and stygian dragon. Didn help a lot because lady mel mostly casts spells and already has low resistance to fire. When nauseau came i switched to daishos with 30 ssi. I did swing at 1,25 but missed a lot due to hci penalty. So i couldnt leech enough life and died in the end. Tried this again and was killed by bloadoath.
2nd time i returned with my standard template with 120 parry but this ended the same way.
3rd try i swapped anatomy for resisting spells. It was a bit better but still had problems with nausea. Here i realized that i can run away from her and use invis pot. The nausea effect ends after a while.
With this tactic the battle went quite well. But in the end i did again due to poison, strangle, and so on that interrupted invisibility while drinking the pot.
Drinking those pots needs too much time. And if i have to cleanse (fc penalty) or pre drinking cure pots it even needs more time. Also space is too tight to get a distance between me and mel.
But i think the invisibility idea is not bad. I have the following template in my mind:
120 swords
120 bushido
120 chivalry
120 tactics
120 parrying ( for evasion)
100 hiding.
Has anyone tried this before. Any suggestions would be really helpful. Thx
