Ok, im wandering if the Siteings of her are true or if a couple of people have been smoking way to much swampweed. Danicek Gave me links to posts that talk about her but after reading them im really not sure what to belive. Im leaning towards that its a pile of BS. But Who knows.

She was something the programmers put in to reward die-hard players, like the pantaloons in BG. Actually getting her to appear is VERY difficult, that's why she isn't talked about more; a lot of players probably don't yet now she's in the game.

If you don't mind a little... um.. constructive optimization of game faults... yeah... that's it... the BEST way to get her to appear is to leap off the cliff closest to the island shrine. Just remember to strafe left or right or you might get a glimpse of her right before you do a dirt-dive. I saw her flicker once from the top of the cliff... it's the ONLY time I've been able to get to her. Otherwise she's just gone.

I tried to reproduce it 30 times after she smoked me (I wasn't ready, and she's a REAL ... uh... witch. With a b.) and finally got her again and was ready this time. Man, it was WORTH the effort!

She can only be slain by Nelik's Sword.

Well, that explains why I wasn't harming her in the slightest then. Dammit... and here I thought Neliks sword was a myth. Grr... back to hunting for it then...

Hell of a fight regardless. Worth the effort.

Nelik's Sword is quite easy to make, all you must do is find some tape so you can put Uriziel and Innos' Rage together.

Duct, scotch, or packing tape? So far I've only found Scotch tape... but it seems that such an item deserves a little better. Where do you find another type of tape?

Well, from reading all these posts, I think it's safe to say the Swamp Witch doesn't really exist in the game and was made up by people on this forum as a running joke. Newbies beware, and don't fall for it and waste your time looking!

It's not the witch that's the joke, it's just the Nelik's sword thing.

Well you know something, I was bored today so i decided to see how much swamp weed i could smoke... so after about 20 minutes or so I got bored with that and started to walk around then I saw the sleeper. Everyone should try it, it is both freaky and amazing at the same time.

S.C. are you really serious that the swamp witch is real and not a joke? Have you actually seen it and has anyone else? Please, serious replies only. I don't want to spend hours in a swamp wasting time(and I don't want others who read this to hae to waste their precious time either) because someone is making a cruel joke here...

The whole thing was a joke for one special forum member. We made up some requirements he could never fulfil because he killed everybody.
