Defend!

Bastardize a cobblegen to eat water? I think that'd be doable, if time consuming. Mind you, i'm not really sure how, but if you can automate the water coming out...

Maybe make a few of 'em.

Alternately just make a few dozen tanks, suck the whole thing up in one go, then break it.

Does any of the thaum seals eat water?

It'd help if we had a bit more info on what's tripping you up, gi. Most emulators are fairly simple; download, uncompress, run program, open game image (usually a rom or cd and via a very simple "open rom/cd image" command in the menu), play away.

As for USB, I usually play emulated stuff with the keyboard, not a controller, if that's the concern. You can use non-console controllers just fine, though.

Later edit: If you're asking how to manually dump rom images from an SNES, that... that's a bit more involved. Pretty sure it takes special adapters and more technical knowhow than I've ever had. I can probably hunt up some tutorials somewhere, though, if you're trying to pursue that.

Later later edit: SNES9x runs the SNES der langrisser recently translated just fine (or it did for me; going by the patch read me, this is likely because I disable sound), so you're not stuck with bsnes (which is a freaking terrible resource hog, for all of it's accuracy). 9x is also a bit more user friendly. There's also a workaround for ZSNES. Lunar IPS is also a much more (windows) user  friendly patching program. Byuu's patch does take a UPS patcher, though, so go with upset. Forget what I used, eh.

*shakes fist at crueset* Spoilers, you crazy blonde!


Anyway, BuCue are those four legged dog-like mechs. S'a mission in that relatively recently translated SD Gundam MMO thing that consists basically of blowing up junkloads of them. Big Zam smash, heeheeheeee.

Parrots are somewhat messy, yes, but not too terribly much more than most other birds.

Definitely not something you'd have in the average dorm room, though, if only due to size issues. They're fairly sizable birds and, if you had room mates, you'd probably have to keep in a quite large cage.

They seem to be fairly nice, though, or at least the African gray my aunt has is. I'm not too sure about ones like macaws. Saw one of those fairly close, was mildly terrified. Bugger looked like it could take my hand off at the wrist.

Azt meant (and said, actually) dey was throwing tornado and shatter into the mix, G. Throw tornado wasn't the spell name

I'm also curious what mad creature was throwing that around.

Mu's one of the better nemmy races... sorta'. The obvious problem is that it's a mummy not worshipping sif, heh.

But yeah, being able to sac most/all corpses and potions is a fair boost for a nemmy worshipper. You'd probably be better off with a sprig, though.

About the only thing I see majorly wrong with that is the word "couple." Once you get call imp, you want to use them in packs of three-four or, preferably, more. If you run into something that looks particularly dangerous, blow your entire MP pool on imps just a little off screen from the enemy, tell them to wait (t->w by default, iirc) and then run in the other direction. This works on most of the more dangerous stuff -- call up imps, then stay out of enemy LoS until the imps kill it.

The only reason you'd be using one or two imps would be to supplement magic dart spam on something weaker. Against anything dangerous, you specifically want enough that they're getting in the way, and that generally means at least three, if you're not in a corridor. And then you want to get out of the danger zone and let the imps do their work.

Well, that and the 'ran into other mobs' bit. Basic thing is to never, ever, run into the black unless you have absolutely no other choice, and doing everything you can pre-emptively to make sure you have that choice. If you aren't already, make sure to visit all the down stairs before actually starting to explore the next level, so that if nothing else you can make sure to be running for stairs up.

As for skills, I usually don't really hyperfocus with my MuWz critters; spell casting and whatever schools I intend to use, in general, just stay on. When I'm after something specific or want something sooner, I'll focus that, but, again, leave my other stuff-I'm-going-to-use on.

But yeah, MuWz, once you've got channel, is just a matter of drowning everything in imps until you can drown them in higher level summons.
