Re: Strategy Central - Links for the Perplexed
Excellent work. You did a far better job of this than I ever would have.
Re: Strategy Central - Links for the Perplexed
Really good, man.
Re: Strategy Central - Links for the Perplexed
I don't mean to sound pushy or selfish, but I think my current walkthorugh here may be a better option than the current one...
Re: Strategy Central - Links for the Perplexed
Yeah, there's something I realized recently that I needed to add to the Book I Strat. Central list. I can't remember if it was your walkthrough, something else, or both.Vroqren wrote:I don't mean to sound pushy or selfish, but I think my current walkthorugh here may be a better option than the current one...
Anyway, I'll get to updating this in the next couple of weeks (maybe Thanksgiving before it happens though...).
Re: Strategy Central - Links for the Perplexed
OK, this has now been updated to include Vroqren's Book I walkthrough, and a link to SpottedShroom's Eschalon Wika (which is geared to Book II, but will still have lots of useful info for Book I).
I still feel like there was something else I was supposed to add to this list, but I can't figure out what it is - so if anyone notices something obvious missing from this list, please let me know!
Edit (12/05/11): I think I finally figured out the other thing I was supposed to add to the list! - MP & XP totals for monster/mobs/enemies has been added to the "Informational Topics: Quests, Items & Enemies" section.
