Hi all,

I found the Dragon by going into the cave area near Crow Rock Castle and at the end is a Teleporter that takes you to an Island where the Dragon is.

I have to be honest and tell you that I used the God Mode to kill him because I didn't think that I could do it any other way because he is not that strong. The Battlemage is my weakest guy.

It took a much longer time and I had to try several different weapons before I saw damage being done on him. He may be imuned to some magic...not sure.

I will try him with my strongest person again without God Mode to see how I do though.

I know what you mean Nickie, on being through the game!
I don't know about the rest of you, but the potion I get the least of is the undead.

Ingie

How do you get the cheats working? I put in the /cheats=1 thingy and hit ~ and got the console but when I type in a code I get the message cheats disabled. I typed in sys cheats 963 and got the message and typed in sys cheats 369 and got the message and when I typed in cheat lord I got the message to go to help which told me nothing.

Hi - have just ordered Sacred Plus so hope to be joining you. ( I typed that as Scared Plus - makes me think!)

Is it any easier than Sacred? Thought that hard but I was very new to RGP at that time. Sacred Gold is due out in August.

Alice

Hi Alice, I think Sacred Plus is easier, but like you; am now use to RPGs and that helps.
Also, the fact that they have fixed some of the quests bugs is a great help. And new areas opened up.

Well you all, I took the tax collector quests back through Wolfdale and all around the area where I knew the collectors were, where she was and where she should stay put. Nada. My log book says I have the tax money, have the rebel and now must take her to the cave..I have tried all the caves including of course the one she should stay put in.
She will not stay put. I guess I have her with me.
I'm not worried about her, but I sure wish she'd just stay where she should..maybe she wants to be a Vamp? So that will be an uncomplete quest, though not timed, it won't go off my log book and that dang blue book is staring me in the face.

I give up trying. I'm off to find the Ice thing John was talking about.
one of my new favorite quotes "If this is suppose to be a challenge, then I'm missing something"

Ingie

I, too, have begun replaying. I never finished the game last year, but decided to download Plus and give it another try. I am finding it harder, I think. Or the respawn rate is just much worse than I remembered. I can't seem to get through the goblins to get anywhere. And I have two horses out there in the wilderness waiting for me!! I have finished several quests but the two timed ones from Silver Creek timed out while I battled bad guys and goblins.

I am playing a Wood Elf and I know they are weak, but I got through a lot easier last time! Playing silver both times, too.

Ah, well. Must just persist. This is a fun game, but I don't know how you guys play so many characters at once. How do you remember what you have done as whom? I'm confused with just one little elf!

Okay, Silver is the harder version to play..Bronze is the easier..could be why you're having so many problems...I don't think you can change the game in mid-stream, but check to see..If not, I would back out start another game on Bronze and you'll find it much easier, even if you chose a Wood Elf.
I played one for a bit and didn't have any problems at first.
Sacred Plus on Bronze is easier, I tried one game on Silver with the new characters and it's hard..

Good luck,
Ingie

Well Ingie I did the tax collectors quest at Wolfdale and had no problems. Here's the sequence for me as I remember it.

1. Got quest.
2. Killed bunch of baddies and picked up a tax document.
3. Went to tax collector girl and took her to the cave.
4. Talked to girl in the cave and she told me to go to the mayor for reward.
5. Went to mayor got reward, exp points, end quest.

Could you have forgotten or missed the document when you had the fight with all the bad guys in the town?

What I do is hit alt so I don't miss any pickups.

Peggy what I advise you to do is export your character (you keep all your stats and equipment) then start a new game (bronze) and import that character. The wood elf has to be built up and then she's really powerful. Silver was meant to play after you completed the game in Bronze and you need to be level 40 or above to really play silver. (At least I do)

Peggy, Ingie and John are correct, Silver setting is way too hard to start the game, try exporting your character like Ingie described, or just start over in Bronze.

As for me, my Vamp got to Prince Valor's hideout with Vilya in tow, and got the portal opened to that place in the desert, but I decided to forego taking the portal and will run around levelling up a bit first.

I'm also working hard on getting the Battlemage up to speed, I have to go a lot slower with him, but it's fun to strategize my spell line-up, a lot more thinking involved than with a melee character.

Well, that young lass and I had quite the trek together..
I tried everything I could think of to end this quest, but nope she would not stay put...trotted right behind..

Have no idea what went wrong..but, she followed me about the whole evening, finally managed to get her killed off..it took ghosties that would go after her..so that quest is in the red.

I've been in that Pig Shire Place and then braverock castle for just a visit to open the portal..
and stopped for the night. The Vamp is running strong, we have all but mind control in the combat positions..
It's a toss up still between the 3..don't have the stamina to get wood elf up..another time

Have fun you all..
Ingie

Oh, WHY did they have to make the skellies so annoying to fight?! Just DIE already! Those potions of undead death just DON'T last long enough!

Rant over. My vamp is doing great otherwise. Soon we will get those Ice Elves!

Hi all,

Well in all of my games Ingie I know that you have to have the money and it sounds like you do.

Also you have to click on the grey/blue chest in the back of the cave before she will stay there.

Don't know that there is anything else unless you didn't talk to the Mayor but that shouldn't matter.

Don't know why they put timed quests in and on some I don't get any clue on the map where to go???? Also can't get to some of them in time if you have to stop and fight every to seconds either.

I didn't think the cheat code would work in my game because I put it in and the health bar still kept going down but I discovered that even if it does your person won't die. The health bar just goes back up by itself.

You have to type:

1. Press ~ key to get the counsel.

2. Type this exactly as is

sys cheats 963

3. Press Return and you will get CHEATS ENABLED
4. Type

cheat lord

5. Press Return and you will get GOD MODE ON

I beleive that the number 369 is to turn it off.

Hope this helps.

It seems that every time I start the game all I have to do is press ~ and the counsel comes on without my typing anything else except the above and it works. Good Luck and hope it works for you too.

Thanks, guys. I did export my character and restart in Bronze. MUCH better! 'Course it kinda helps that I am already level 10 when starting over and I got to keep all my armor, weapons, money, etc. Am now redoing all the early quests. I will be interested to see if I can get the two timed quests I missed before. I guess this is a cheat, but eventually I bet it catches up with me.

Thanks Ingie, OM and Schwab, for your help and suggestions.

I guess I was doomed not to cheat in this game. I didn't really want to anyway just thought I'd check it out and it doesn't work for me. I did exactly what all the cheat sites told me to and after hitting ~ typed sys cheats 963 and it said cheats disabled rather than cheats enabled. No matter what I type it says cheats disabled.

Back to more important matters. My Dark Elf has gotten all the elements and is on to Blackrock Castle to meet up with the Prince and storm the castle. (I wonder if I'll have the same bug in the cellar.)

So far, my favorites have changed. Wood Elf has moved up and Dark Elf has moved down. Now it's either Vamp, Seraphim or Wood Elf to go to the Expansion.

John,
Where's the ice thing??

Ingie

Edit here: I had trouble getting the water for the dying man..could not find the mules..found a horse, no water..went on the official web-site and indeed, there is a new patch out for some things the water
being one of the , it's patch #1.8.6 I think..
Anyway, I should have read the full thing, but there are a few bugs still..I wonder if the tax one was there? Too late now for the Vamp..but some of the bugs as before may only occur to certain characters. The Dark Elf had the most from what I read.

Just thought I would pass along the information

Ingie - I installed Sacred again yesterday evening. Unfortunately when I uninstalled it I also uninstalled all the save games so could not take a character forward.

Anyway - the expansion, Underworld, arrived this morning and that has been installed BUT - a very big but, am told to play the game with disc 1 of Sacred. Then for several minutes, after literally two or three seconds play, when I left-click the mouse I'm taken back to the desk top.

Gone through this scenario several times before the game actually takes off.

Also tried to get the latest patch and can't find any patches anywhere! My game version is 1.7.60 - is that the newest version?

Laugh, when I logged in on the Sacred site I was told my password was incorrect. Well, I was copying it from the email I received in March 2004. After several tries I asked to be sent my password by email. Received it and, guess what? It was the exact same password which had been refused several times earlier today. Sooooo went back and entered it again - and I was logged on.

At the moment am just trying things out with a Seraphim again, trying to open up the map. Doubt if I'll get back to the game tomorrow as a friend is taking me out.

There is so much to re-learn. Perhaps after searching around like this I may start another game by importing the character I have now when she has gone up a few levels.

Will go off and search for patches on the other site.

Be back.

Alice

Alice, did you download Sacred Plus? It updates your game, I believe.

http://eng.sacred-game.com/downloads.php?s=6279fa36a0da572e998606305ff268f9

The most recent patch version is 1.8.26, this includes the Plus content, follow the link Peggy provided. I haven't ordered Underworld so I don't know how that affects it.

Ingie, do you mean the Ice Elves quest? On the forest patch to the Prince Valor hideout (north of Mascarell) you will see a guy with a scroll over his head, he tells you there are some wood elves up the path and to the west a little who start the quest for you.

I am going so slow, I play the Vamp one day, then switch to the Battlemage, he really is coming into his own, I love running up to a group of arrow shooting enemies and casting fire spiral or ice ring, they just stand there and die willingly.

I was just wondering - there's a ton of loot everywhere, but did anyone find something really, really special? I haven't, I don't think.

Thanks Schwab, that's the quest I wondering about.

Nickie
I think I have, when I do a character check, it gives off certain "special" equipment..I found a long blade-Vampire one- that I also was able to get an vamp amulet with a % of ability to use long weapon..wish I could remember the names..also was reading a bit about some of the items that have a grouping and what happens when you get the whole collection..it was on the Sacred Forum

Alice,
When I put on Sacred Underworld...and want to play the original campaign I was told to use Disc 1 of Underworld, and it works find..all the characters come up and of course since Sacred is loaded the full game is on..try using that disc.
I know you have orderd Plus, and will be getting there until later in the month..so if you download any patches, make sure you're in the right section..

Ingie

Ingie, in case you still have problems with the Ice Thing, as you leave Prince Valor's hideout, (after rescuing the princess) heading south, take the first right you can into the forest. You will run into the guy that triggers the quest and then just follow the blue icons.

I'm about to take my Vamp to that area next.

Have fun!!

I could be wrong about this, but I just installed the UK version of Sacred Underworld, and based on what I have read on Ascaron's forum, the expansion includes Sacred Plus and all patches.

And if you install the UK Underworld over a North American version of Sacred, it overrides the less-gore version of North America and you end up with full gore.

Thanks Ingie, I'll keep looking - there's so much stuff I am not looking very carefully at it. How do I make Wilbur's inventory come up? I can't remember, and if I give him a great shield through his cameo, he gives me his sword, and vice versa...

Glad you are having fun now with it Peggy! I think in the early stages of the game, you level up so quickly that it really wasn't a cheat.

I don't know how to get his inventory up..don't know if I did and forgot..you can get his stats..
He likes it when you give him a sword, doesn't think much of a shield, but I give it to him anyway and he uses it..he's suppose to take a bow too..but wouldn't from me.
I'm going to get the Mage up with DE and Vamp and see how it goes..
I think I've done some things out of sync.

The official website has the patches for Sacred Plus..so I assume, from what I read..it was fixing some bugs still left in the game..Now I did think with Underworld loaded it would take care of things, but only if I startd a new game on it I think.

Ingie

Hi everyone - please would someone kindly give me a link to the latest updates?

Have tried registering with Game-Stop but they refuse to take any of my suggestions for a user name and password. Went over that so many times I eventually gave up and went to bed.

In the meantime am trying to refresh my memory of the game-play with Seraphim. Love her.

Alice
