: Okay, to kill Balor we need: 1- one eblis stone that
: paralyz him.
: 2- 3 zerks
: to kill SB, we need: 1- help of Myrdred(his lightning) to
: capture one of his crows.
: 2- Alric use all powers of Balmung-only to damage SB(and
: Balmung was one of the powerest artifacts).
: 3- Dream that Alric use to throw hiw into lava.

: So, who's the best?

Actually, Balor is. Consider: The Eblis stone (one of the most powerful artifacts in the world of Myth) held him in place for 30 seconds. 3 Berserkers (the absolute minimum if playing on normal difficulty or greater, I don't know about timid or simple), strike about once per second. That's nearly 90 direct hits with a claymore! Noone could survive that, certainly not Soulblighter (come to think of it, why didn't Alric use the Eblis stone on him too?). The reason why Balmung is considered one of the greatest artifacts on Myth is due to its chain lightning effect, which makes it excellent for blasting whole formations, but much less powerful in one on one combat.

: No, because he was very easy to kill. In level "Last
: Battle we need 3 zerks to kill him while he can't
: attack you. If Alric could kill his army and caught
: him with his army, I am sure that 50 zerks could kill
: him very easy.

50 Berserks? Without Alric and the Eblis stone, they wouldn't stand a chance (unless you're really, really good). You've seen what Balor's lightning bolts do.

: I said that he could send 300.000 to shiver to take
: Madrigal or to SB to destroy light army, or if he was
: the most powefull mage in myth he could go with his
: army and destroy all that he see, like SB in Myth II.

Unfortunately for Balor, he didn't have the privelidge of knowing exactly what Alric was planning. My guess is that by the time Alric raised the Myrkrydian standard, the vast majority of his forces had already engaged the Legion, and what we see is just a personal guard. And, were it not for the Eblis stone, Balor would have been more than capable of blasting Alric's entire force singlehandedly.

: So, he was very powefull thanks his sword and armor, we
: can see it in level "last Battle" that 3
: zerks can kill him very fast. Now image him without
: his sword and his armor, we would like Thrall- very
: ease to kill.

Three Zerks take 30 seconds to kill him, when he's paralysed, meaning that they hit automatically and he can't fight back. 30 seconds by three Zerks equals 90 direct hits with a greatsword, which is one hell of a lot of damage. His armour, the Mantle of the Leveller, is bound to be powerful, but even so, I'd have thought he'd probably be at least as tough as an Avatara without it. If Connacht is as weak as a Thrall in Myth3, I will quite happily eat my words. As for the sword, consider that Balmung is described as "Generally considered to be the most powerful enchanted weapon in all of Myth.", which would add some credence to the idea that Balor's lighting is inherent in him, an ability bestowed opon him by the spirit of the Leveller, and the sword is merely to point at the target you want to blast, much in the same way that many fantasy mages "target" with their staves, although the magic in in them, not the staff (although some staves either are magical or store magic, as is the case with the Deciever's sceptre, among other abilities.)
