Tips & Tricks
- Gargoyles can shrug off most light attacks, proving aggravating to short blades-specialists. Hit hard, quaffing a potion of might if necessary to cut through their AC and bring them down.
- For Earth Elementalists, gargoyles are very vulnerable to Lee's Rapid Deconstruction, exploding into shrapnel that damages nearby opponents. Meanwhile, Sandblast is almost useless against them, as the gargoyle's high AC is applies three times against the damage output.
