Subject: How I beat the forest fighting trial solo
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many of you have asked how I was able to complete the forest fire trial
with only Felonia.

The answer is: Preparation.

Felonia doesn't know 'create water', and I didn't have her learn it.  She
does, however, know store/tap, and I had her learn 'wall of ice'.


Many of you discovered that 'create water' was the most mana efficient
means of combating the fires, but the most powerful and effective spell for
a high level mage like Felonia would actually have been 'wall of ice'.

To defeat the challenge, I grabbed a bunch of throwing daggers off of clan
storage and had Felonia while wearing her full mage cast set (making her
effective cast level 52) store 'wall of ice' on eighty of them over the
course of about a half hour.

Before I entered the trial area, I wrote an alias to quickly use the
temporary wands on each fire and switch out tapped daggers for fresh ones,
and I had Felonia wear her mana regen set.  I then entered the trial area
and moved row by row, wiping out the first dozen fires with two taps each.

Once 25 fires were put out, I broke off and started hunting the thoqqua.  I
quickly picked it up on scan in the first row, shadow bound it, and
switched back to Felonia's mage cast set.  It took two 'ball lightning'
spells to kill it.  I then switched her back to her mana regen set and
resumed fighting fires, which now took more an increasing number of taps to
defeat than before.

After all the stores spells were expired, I had Felonia switch back to her
mage cast set once again (she had regenerated nearly all of her mana back
by that point) and used 'cone of cold' to put out the last several fires
except the last one, where I had to have her wait to regenerate enough mana
to repeatedly cast 'frostflower' until it went out.  She won the challenge
with only a few seconds to spare.
