Have you ever done this?

I found a save for a character which I was never totally happy about when I finished him. (level 30) So, I've decided to re-play him at this save point (level 10) And apply what I would of done, on reflection, to finish him off as I actually want. And by that I mean stats, bonuses etc. Hopefully, I ...

Re: finished as ranger , kind of (spoiler)

I don't think this is a spoiler as such more of a helpful suggestion. If your playing a ranger and looking for a better weapon, wait until your level is sufficiently high enough or, towards the end of your game before doing the assassin quest. The bow in his trunk levels up with the game. You will t...

Re: finished as ranger , kind of (spoiler)

Part of ranger training Is foraging which, lends itself to alchemy. The logical conclusion here is that the game suggests rangers make potions, sell herbs and imbue armors and weapons. Learning further magics is just character choice really. I like the idea of not using enhanced magics it's almost t...

Re: finished as ranger , kind of (spoiler)

I've played through Rangers too. I agree with you, my only option was enchanted weapon which brings us back to your main point. I'm hoping that book III expands on magic and alchemy. For example, you can buy weapons and armors with magic/element etc resistance strength/dex boosts etc. Magical damage...

Help me build a wizard.

I've had successful warriors, rangers, alchemists, thieves, assassins, good guys, bad guys and jack of all trades but, I've never had a successful wizards, warlocks, sorcerers or mage. Can anyone help me create a pure magic user?

To be fair I've never created a custom portrait so I don't know. I'm not familiar with gimp either. Just theorising really. Photo manipulation software is generally all the same in the fact that they follow the same principles for file creation. I'll create a custom portrait and get back to you :)

Re: Has anyone else found this?

Yes, I've noticed that too. As can been seen from the picture attached that's the armor stats you get for found items of ancient dragon skin (the value's change but always remain low) Isn't it the same armor rating as reptile hide? And that's worth much more. Found divine ore items are the same. The...

Re: Custom Portait FAILURE

What have you used to create your portrait? Photoshop? You might simply need to make it smaller then the max aloud. Or try saving it for web and drop the resolution. Uploading images to games functions in the same way as blogs or websites. If it's to big it simply won't generate it. That's probably ...

Re: Has anyone else found this?

From my experience of the game you have fixed item drops/pick ups and fixed variables. Aside from randomized Items as mentioned above. Fixed items might be certain chest containing potions or items. Another example of fixed items being keys either dropped or found. Their are other examples of this d...

Re: Has anyone else found this?

I'm not sure If you can see from the image but this character has ancient dragon skin boots, gloves and scull cap too. A previous character had an ancient dragon skin scull cap +10 all resistance which, was very handy. Until playing this character through I didn't know you could get a cape either. I...

Re: Environmental sounds at startup

I found myself humming the classical guitar piece of music first heard (by me anyway) when you first start to wander around the capital. (Its to symbolize quazi-medieval society I imagine and the fact that you have reached the centre of this society, or something like that) I was humming it at work ...
