The Drunken Lizard Pub

I saw that in one of my games.

I played one game where I plinked the drones no problem.

Then in my next game, i walked out of lilith's house and it was like "Bees The Revenge!".

I thought it had something do with the sequence of how I did the events since in the first game I cleared all the maps ...

As it turns out... Rangers only get 8 mana for 40 perception.

Gotta figure mages get a +2 bonus per level.

Survival reads like the hitpoint version of Mediation -- improves regen but a high enough endurance SHOULD cap the regen anyway so I don't bother with it.

I say 'should' because I tested the character creation points but did not take a character high enough to verify everything at the higher levels ...

I have a feeling that hitpoint regen works the same as mana regen--since a lot of the 'math' works the same, i.e. the max possible hitpoint and mana at level 1 is 76.

38 is a magic number in eschalon for mana regen -- a 38 between Endurance And Survival 'should' max out your regen (a 38 combo ...

I gave up on it... did a Ranger with 1 mage spell.

If the developers are listening... Item suggestion for Book II.

Amulet of the Hunter
---Predator Sight

And it wouldn't hurt if it had a +3 To Hit also

It should say 4-6 points per level. It is now updated.

Okay... so that explains why I noticed fireball was a better single target spell.

Thank you.

Are the spell damages right for these?

I saw under 30 points of damage for compress where the min should be 36 (I only ever cast it at level 6.)

Hide In Shadows is a good idea.

I found that Invisibility is better though... because it works out in the open too. After I got up there in mana, the first thing i did in a fight was 'go invisible'. You don't need to cast it at level 6 either -- level 2 is long enough to blow your mana -- level 3 ...

My review:

Pros:

1. The character building freedom was extremely enjoyable.
2. The 'working' quests were a fantastic touch... i like how they work to gently guide one along.
3. There were some truly ingenious bits -- i.e. The Amulet 'gotcha' for killing Lilith and emptying the vault; one of my ...

I finished a pure mage with the 'There Can Only Be One' Challenge. It turns out that if you have enough mana -- the higher level spells ROCK... Even without fortify potions (I did not have alchemy so I couldn't make them.)

You can regen so fast that it's worth it to fireball things down and do a ...

Done as the 'There Can Only Be One' Challenge -- A rings & amulet only, Pure Mage.

Check out the 91 Perception & 423 Mana --- Found out that when you can sling 10 of them, fireball is well worth it, even over compress atmosphere.

I have completed a number of challenges in a single game.

1. There Can Be Only One
2. Pure Mage
3. Lover, Not a Fighter
4. No Alchemy

****SPOILER PIC****

There Can Be Only One -- (I took the challenge to mean books & trainers were acceptable but that I could use no initial or level gained ...

To add some numbers to yours.

1. I rolled until I got a 14 & 14 int/perception combo.
2. I put all points into perception.
3. I took the +2 perception race.

That gave me 76 mana to start the game. (> 8 int gives 1 mana per point, > 8 perception gives 2 mana per point at startup).

4. I took six ...

Don't know if it has been reported--I'm on a mac.

I was playing around with the classes.

Step 1. Have 20 Skill Points
a. Take Magic-User
b. Take Added Weapons-Bow.

Now have 17 Skill points.

Step 2. Switch to Ranger
Have 2 Points in Weapons Bow with 16 Skill points.

Step 3. Switch to Magic ...
