Oh damn , he looked at me funny so i killed him :x No need to worry about that for this quest, its not necessary to talk to him to find the book you're looking for. However, the quest he would have given you is obviously gone, however you don't really get all that much for doing his quest, so again...

Re: Oak acorn?

I've scoured Western Salted Coast and the Tangletree maps, but I can't seem to find the Burley Oak acorn. Do I need to do something special with Oolaseph besides finishing his quest? If you've bought the map of the whole region from one of the vendors, (or found a copy), you might want to see just ...

Re: News from inside the Lair, Volume 1

- Many people say we need a longer demo. Do you people think we should add the Salted Coast to the demo, or the Family Crypt to the demo (or both). We will release an updated Windows demo along with the Mac demo, which of course is being released along with the Mac full version. The Linux demo, whi...

Incorrect hp / mana on double level up

Only realised this after the post the other day about class adjustments to hp and mana on level up, i.e. fighter types get +1 hp, -1 mana whereas mage types get +1 mana, -1 hp on level up. If you wait til you have enough experience to level up twice (e.g. wait til you have say 2000 xp before levelin...

You don't even need an Int of 20 playing as a mage to be honest - with a couple of rings of intelligence +4 and the helmet of intelligence +2, you could have an Int low as 10 and still cast every elemental spell in the game. Note that you only need the int requirement to learn the spell; once its in...

Yep, I just did it again .. but this time I killed everything on the whole planet (except for one goblin stuck inside a mountain). Giants, shop keeps, guards, everyone-who-thought-I-was-their-errand-boy. All gone. 8>. And wearing dual assassin's rings is really cheesy. I mean specialism is all very...

Having gone through the game and seen a few of the end-game pieces, I have to say that I now think that light armor is the way to go. With the ability to imbue armor +3 for each piece, heavy armor is not actually all that different to light armor in terms of AR. The light armor also seems to have mo...

Oops, you're right. The game is correct, the documentation is wrong. I'll change the chart above... I'm a bit confused. I just started a healer character, with Int 14, Wis 15 and Per 25. I was expecting 65 mana at level 1, but the game started me at 64. This ties into your chart above. Is this corr...

Book I 's HP an MP leveling chart: +1 HP for every 5 points of END +1 HP for every 10 points of STR +1 MP for every 5 points of PER +1 MP for every 10 points of INT After your HP and MP level gains are calculated, we then "class balance" that: Magick Users and Healers get an additional +1...

I do not think the two skills should be linked. You would think that if you can wear heavy armor then wearing light armor would be easy. It is not. If you train first with heavy armor you become very familiar with what you can and cannot do in the heavy armor. If you now switch to light armor your ...

It's funny- people request more and more realism in RPGs, and what you just described sounds very real to me: you find an object, sell it, and later regret getting rid of it. :wink: I don't think any "storyline critical" objects can be sold or dropped, however minor quest objects can be. ...

Maybe you want to say that the eggs will be even more precious if a player can make 17 lvl AND can make it back to the Shadowmirk. Yes, that is right. Portal is your friend here - set one up when you go to Shadowmirk, then don't change it until you're ready to go back. Set up a return portal wherev...

Normally I would agree with what Audan posted above, however in this game, I think you can specialise without losing a general character. This is because of the trainers / books / items. Specifically: Key spells are haste, melt lock, lore, and divine heal. Its nice to have the trap disarm spell, por...
