Did the invasion at Teras get inside the town, or did it stay in the "wilds"? My favorite invasions are when the invaders get inside the town gates. People running around like kobolds without their heads on... too fun!

There's always implosion and spikethorn.
An old warrior could tackle first, then let everyone else take a swing.
I wasn't there though, so I don't know what this figure is like.

Meteor storm is a great spell when used against UBER invasion monsters.
Tackle most like would not get it.
Implosion most likely wouldn't hit something that old.
But meteor storm will kill anything.
If the monster is slaying everyone in site and only people beyond the cap have a chance. Welp. Meteor storm.
Level 30 wizard can save the day!
Might not like that conclusion. But if everyone is dead and they keep knocking down sancts to kill the clerics, empaths and newly raised people. Why should you play fair?
But that's part of the fun. One thing I do like. More invasions then in the past.
Don't scream and yell at me. I only gave a suggestion. I have only meteor stormed in one invasion. But that was when something dispeled 425 and I type 525 trying to put it back up.

I've admittedly used meteor swarm several times.
Problem is you can't use it in town since you don't know if you'll get fined for killing other people, and if you do, you're in a whole lotta debt.

Just to review, we have the volcano and other assorted trouble in Teras, the Afraid of the Dark event that hits all over, and the Council of Nine & Thurfel Quest in Ice Mule. I haven't been following the events in Ice Mule very closely, so those two (Council of Nine & Thurfel Quest) may be closely related.
I can imagine standing in town at Ice Mule and an invasion hits... I would stand there and ponder "Alrighty now, is this related to Afraid of the Dark, one of the Council of Nine, or something to do with that bad boy, Thurfel?".... SPLAT!

I believe last night's Icemule invasion was of the After Dark variety.
