In the sewers below our city, there lurks a horrid creature that hungers for human flesh. The creature has killed many, including my son and my husband. If you destroy it, I will reward you. Please be careful though, that beast has taken enough from us already. The sewer entrance is through the trap door just up the street. - Atma Navigation There are two entrances to the sewers, I believe. One of them is right near here, down by the water beneath the docks. I can see it from my ship, and you can bet I keep an eye on it every night. - Meshif First entrance to Sewers Level 1 mentioned by Atma is up the street, a trap door guarded by Greiz. However, second entrance can be found down stairs from docks, left of Meshif in south corner of Lut Gholein: this is preferred, since exit to Sewers Level 2 is most often to left or right of this entrance, in southwest or southeast corners. Turn right first, but turn back if sewers turn left to north for great length. If exit cannot be found to left close to docks entrance, go north to exit in northwest corner. Waypoint on Sewers Level 2 can normally be found most quickly by going left from entrance, while exit to Sewers Level 3 can normally be found most quickly by going left from waypoint (or right from entrance). Radament can normally be found most quickly by going left from entrance to Sewers Level 3: quest notification icon will appear in bottom-left corner of screen when near. Objective If you're going to fight that thing, use some common sense. Be knowledgeable about what harms the undead. Poison, for instance, will have little effect. - Elzix Radament is an Extra Fast Undead boss, accompanied by three Burning Dead minions in Normal, four in Nightmare and five in Hell (Immune to Fire (100%) in Hell). Also accompanied by up to seven Horrors (Immune to Lightning (120%) in Hell), one Horror Mage firing ice bolts (Immune to Cold (170%) in Hell) and three Burning Dead Mages each firing fire bolts (Immune to Fire in Nightmare (100%) and Hell (110%)), lightning bolts (Immune to Lightning (110%) in Hell) or poison bolts. As Elzix states, Radament is resistant to poison (and cold) in all difficulty levels. Never Immune to Magic or Immune to Poison. ~17% (1/6) chance of becoming Immune to Cold in Nightmare when Magic Resistant (100%) or Cold Enchanted (135%). Can become immune to the following in Hell: ~17% (1/6) chance of becoming Immune to Physical (100%) when Stone Skin. 0~1.5% (1/66) chance of becoming Immune to Fire (115%) when MR Fire Enchanted or FE MR. 0~1.5% (1/66) chance of becoming Immune to Lightning (115%) when MR Lightning Enchanted or LE MR. ~32% (7/22) chance of becoming Immune to Cold when MR (100%), Spectral Hit MR (120%), CE (135%), SH CE (155%) or MR CE (175%). All Skeletons and Skelton Mages have 0% drain effectiveness, so Life Stolen and Mana Stolen per hit are ineffective: if these are causing problems for melee attackers, try casting Life Tap by some means to improve chances of survival Can resurrect fallen undead, do disposing of corpses or luring undead away can make it a lot easier. Reward Upon death, holy bolts radiate outwards, killing all remaining undead in area. Radament drops Book of Skill, requiring 2x2 inventory space to pick up. Right-click to use, gaining one skill point. Radament guarded a golden chest, containing Horadric Scroll requiring 2x2 inventory space to pick up: doing so will trigger The Horadric Staff quest. They say that the taste of vengeance is bittersweet, but I find it to my liking. In addition to my undying gratitude, I have spoken on your behalf with the rest of the townspeople. The merchants have agreed to show their gratitude by offering their wares and services at lower rates. Oh... Jerhyn wants to see you, too. You'll find him in front of the palace. - Atma 10% discount applies to cost of items bought anywhere in Lut Gholein after killing Radament, even without talking to Atma. Discount does not apply to items gambled, repaired or sold to them. Discount does not sum with Reduces All Vendor Prices, but is applied separately: combined with Reduces All Vendor Prices 30%, cost of items bought is reduced by 37% (10 + (90*30/100) ).
