Targeting commanders is unfortunately a very tough thing to do so there's really no easy answer to this. Anyway, with that in mind there's a couple tricks I'd been using.

1. attacking the entire battlefield.

Mages are not so tough nine out of ten times. Tossing out two earthquake spells would take care of your typical mage, or severely hurt them. You just need some way of making sure it doesn't hurt your mage, or making them mass producible.
Rain of stones is a bit like earthquakes older brother from what I hear and can do the job nicely.

2. Mind duel.

Astral mages giving you trouble? If you mass produce enough astral mages you can mind duel the opposition.

3. Flyers

Mages more or less tend to be towards the back, with possibly a guard. If you can get a few flying thugs with brands, they would make short work of them.

4. Battlefield effect spells

Choke enemy mages on foul vapors. For added effect try and give everyone on your side poison resistance.

Alright, well, if you need me to extend a deadline on such short notice do post here and send me a pm. PMs mean I can get an email sent right to my phone.

I'll put in a four hour delay, since I'd want at least two stalls in a row before I consider replacing someone our turning them into AI. Otherwise it feels too short notice, and you can't undo AI.

Well, the spider cellar wasn't too bad in my case, sorta. Admittedly that was the worst my character had been, but setting the cellar on fire and wearing a filter mask helped. Unfortunately, I forgot that doors, furniture, and items are also burnable. Salvaged some books at least. Also, there were shady zombies in the cellar I was in, who also caught on fire. Normally not a problem, but one of them caught on fire and turned out to have shotgun shells of some sort. Cue me figuring that while the entrance was on fire, I should try crafting something while everything was dead and all of a sudden I take damage from the exploding shells.

Hmm, I'm sure this was asked an age ago, but does anyone know how skill rolls are resolved for melee? Mostly wondering how bad it would be to go from melee 4 piercing 3 to using a cutting weapon when my cutting is 0. Does melee affect accuracy and specific skill affect damage?

Do bad transformation results lead to lower magic paths our anything like that? Just kinda curious, since some basins have easier access to affliction healing.

Leaving this on here, if you need an extension let me know sooner than normal. I have a wedding to attend tomorrow, so I may not be able to give extensions on time. In this case, hopefully Delta Foxtrot catches those requests.

(Put in a 12 hour delay for Culise to get their turn in)

Also as for the area, I thought it was worth it just for shit and giggles, guess I should adopt a more competetive >: I mindset

Well, it's a fun event, but, well, the rewards make it unfun. If some gems came out of it it might be a better event. Cursed items that you may or may not want on your character is another matter entirely.
