Being a maxed-out Alchemist, I don't have to be frugal with potions, so
even as a Pacifist I tend to have between 25 and 30 defences up at all
times.
Immunity is a must!
With brews, you are affected on a regular basis, so you need to keep
sipping it every time it is taken down.
Use a cure potion, allheale potion or the Resist skill (Legendary survival)
to cure yourself of Jegga *if* you have been affected.
Use a cure potion, allheale potion or Denallo to cure Kaskamak.
For handling the Mandrake, make sure you have sipped Adrenalin and Vigour
potions. Resip when the Mandrake settles down your hyper-adrenalin, use the
vigour skill/potion, and turn on Autowake (Competent survival skill).
Always keep an eye open when your mining... Drop a pyramid down for
starters, since not all the anti-PW people know where most of the mines are.
Your mounts can be killed, even if you are riding it. Do not leave comms
on your mounts. Kodiak is one to use that particular tactic.
I'll post more as and when I discover it.
