| Valley of mines. Problem :( |
|
Hello everyone, im new.. so this may be up several topics all ready, but i didnt realy find them so i made a new topic.
My problem is that im in Valley of Mines now, my lvl is 9 (!) i'm a mercenary. I have killed several orcs with the hit & run back to fort tecnique, but in the long run i find that extremely boring. If i venture into the mainground on valley of mines i meet nothing but Orc Warriors, Orc Shamans and Orc Elite (!), their FAR to high lvl for a lvl 9 bow mercenary with Elm bow (35 damage), im also short on arrows (as that matter), just so u understand my problem thou 
I would realy appreciate all tips and hints.
Best regards, Fimbul.

Welcome to the forums!
Lord Hagen didn´t order you to kill Orcs, he asked you to bring him the proof that there are dragons in the valley of mines. Buy some pairs of transformation scrolls and save often and in different slots. If a humans sees the transformation you have to reload.

hehe thats the irritating part no one you have to go back to the city or monastery adn yu also neeed to to be caredul with which spells you are using because if you go wandering into orcland as a sheep everything in sight willl come running over to slaughter u. The best is probably sumthin like lurker of snapper even as wolf if you run into orc it will try and kill u.

If you study your map enough, you will find shortcuts that are fairly orc-free to the locations that you need to go. If the Orcs spot you and begin to chase you, they will eventually give up on the chase. Other than that, save a lot and run a lot. You'll be able to return later in the game and teach them all a lesson |

What I do is this:
Run around the castle in the VoM and "round up" the orcs without getting killed.
Then run to the battering ram (the one you use to get into the castle) and stop at the bottom of it. The orcs cannot walk up it or hardly near it for that matter. You can kill EVERYTHING in 3 or so trips. |

Personally, I travelled to the vom, took one look at it and all the orcs, left, then powered on wolves, etc., until I felt strong enough to go back.

I kill every orc in VOM the first time I'm there. It's great for points. I find I can thin out the orc numbers around the castle by circumventing the castle wall in the ditch and killing all the ones that get triggered. Then I move further towards the edge of the ditch and do it again. The ram trick works well too.
