Btw, i spent almost two days trying to get a flame of war for the first time, so i really enjoyed the final result hahaha

Training my first necromancer was an interesting experience. Used the Green Eyed Captain glitch to get this guy as a captain and he spawned in already with the cursed skin and weapon. Thought I'd give training him a shot.

He got his first three immunities pretty easily but became unbelievably stubborn when I tried to get poison or fire proof on him fourth. Ended up having to give him frost proof, then get poison proof, shame off frost and go for fire. That was a whirlwind and very roundabout method of achieving what I wanted.

Tried early on to give him his flamethrower and it was a similar story of stubbornness. Wouldn't take it, so I went back to curse and got Necromancer on him.

When he got to his 7 immunities, I reached out on here for advice on Epic Traits - He's got TS and GS. Got some great insights and some good help from a few people on here so a massive thank you to them.

While going for Tremor, I thought I'd take another shot at getting his flamethrower. Wouldn't you know it, he picked that up before getting Tremor. I'm fully convinced this guy wanted to get on every one of my nerves!

Having both (making 8 bonuses), I gave him back his curse weapon and went for Necromancer again.

So now, I'm pleased to present my 7149 Midnight Necro Olog. He's effectively 7049, since his enrage is Morgai Flies. Very happy with this guy.

My Midnight Necro Olog is almost finished. He's reached his 7 immunities. Planning to make him Legendary so I was looking for advice on what Epic Traits he should be given.

I was thinking Epic Graug Call, since he's a Beastmaster, but what other trait should I give him? I'm between GS or TS but open to input.

Also, are Beastmasters better with fewer enrages so they use their Bestial Roar more frequently? Or should I put some more enrages on him?

I’m trying to train this orc into my first 7777. I’m levelling him up with training orders, resetting if I get the wrong immunity. I want to get poison/beast next as 4th and 5th immunities, then frost as 6th before I’ll force curse as 7th by making him an overlord with a cursed weapon. Problem is, he keeps gaining curse immunity as his 4th immunity after levelling him for at least 4 hours across the past few days. I know it’s RNG but I’ve trained other orcs and it hasn’t taken *this* long. Question is, am I just getting unlucky? Or is there something I can do to make him more likely to get beast/poison immunities? I’ve tried using death threats to give immunities as well, and got the same result of him getting curse immunity all the time.
