I was just wondering the best way around level drain monsters like the Succubus. They seem to hard to fight, and they use level drain right off. It seems pointless to lose all of those hard-earned levels to one dumb monster, especially with elven rangers. Should they belong in the game?
You should NEVER go toe to toe with a drainer. At the beginning of the battle you can inspect the monster list. If you see a drainer, crank the game speed down to the slowest possible and then use your mages and priests to take out the drainers before they get a swing. A good mage spell is fireball, and a good priest spell is rods. If you do it right, you will never lose a level to drainers.
