YMMV / Ravenloft: Stone Prophet

• Breather Level: When compared to the snake-filled Temple of Set or the built-like-a-truck grave elementals and regenerating desert trolls in the Burial Chambers, the Temple of the Harvest has only weak Sand Mephits and one poison-barbed trap in the upper floor, and weak fire beetles and annoying caterwauls in the undercroft. Considering the player needs the Urn from the Temple of Set to fully explore this place, the temple is downright restful by comparison
• Demonic Spiders:
  • Pyre Elementals. In the previous game, they were just tough, but in this one, they create fire around them, so engaging them in melee causes the party to take constant damage, in addition to their normal heavy-hitting damage.
  • Stone Golems in the Pharaoh's Rest. They are completely immune to all magic.
• Disc-One Nuke:
  • An imported character from Strahd's Possession will generally start at a high level and can have powerful weapons. Weapons like the Paladin's Sword or Ba'al Verzi dagger are just as strong here as they were in Barovia.
  • The Vistani Dagger, received from the dead woman at the very beginning of the game. It's a +3 weapon. True, the player needs to give it to Piotra, but they can avoid him entirely and get enough points to beat the game without meeting him. Or just let him tag along.
  • Create Water. 1st level Cleric spells are generally not that useful, and by devoting space to Create Water, the player can free up inventory space, which is always at a premium, especially early on.
• Goddamn Bats:
  • Snakes, spitting or otherwise, which litter the Shrine of Nefertiti and the Temple of Set. They are mostly very easy and a trained fighter can wipe them out in one hit. But if they do hit, they can poison, which needs to be healed through spells or ointment. And there are a lot of snakes.
  • Doom Guards in the Obelisk and Pharaoh's Rest, and the related Death Guards in the Sphinx. They aren't very tough, but explode in a weak lightning bolt or fireball every time they are killed.
  • Caterwauls in the bottom level of the Temple of Harvest. They don't do a lot of damage, but they hit very often and they usually hit multiple party members at the same time.
