Currently a level 40 mummy has +5EB weapons, which is a huge nerf from the +20AB weapons that they used to use.

I don't use my mage for farming so I can't comment on how it does against Umgah, but against a certain spell immune Guardian with high DR the only way the mummy can damage it is with the random 2d10 elemental damage. That's only if you're lucky, if that random 2d10 damage is physical damage then there isn't much that it can do. I've had to start using Mestil's Acid Sheath just to beat this Guardian because the mummy is borderline useless now.

Can you change the +5EB weapons back to +20AB weapons. I'm not sure if you'll need to do anything else to balance out this change, but right now Mummy Dust is basically a wasted feat.

Sounds like a bug.

Just came back and tried the...ahem...thing mentioned before and the level 32 mummy with full cleric/sorcerer buffs can't dent it. Like maybe a few points here and there but actually, I like that. The...thing...was always a pushover and now it instills fear like it should. The mummy can still tank for the poor casters but now is more balanced IMHO. Love it Driller.
