Yep, poor old thing..I'd hit him between his gasp for air..

Well I have my Alienware back and it's running as it should (so far) and there's so much interest in these games that I found a deal for the platinum edition and got it.

I have been checking all the hints etc and there is one for getting a lot of gold at the beginning of the game that says "Go to the well as soon as you walk into the village. Put the money in the bank, then kill yourself. Repeat this as many times as desired.."

I can't find any well that gives you money when you first start and when I died and got reborn or whatever I was broke.

Anyone know what this means?

I found the info here:

I'm not all that familiar with the cheats/exploits, but that one doesn't sound right. There is no well in New Sorpigal that just gives out money.

nope sure doesn't sound right; but there is a well on the back side right of the Training Center..and how could you Kill yourself ? Weird.

Glad you're joining us John, I'm the one battered brusied and lagging behind..if front of me you can the dust that Syd and Skippy have left for us to follow..

Ingie

Didn't sound right to me either but I always need an edge when I start out these games. When they said kill yourself I'm sure they meant just stand there and take a beating without defending yourself until you die.

I now have a question that I can't seem to find in the manual. Forgive me for taking you all back to the beginning but when I equip a crossbow the character has their melee weapon in their hand and the crossbow on their back. How do I select which one I want to use?

John

you don't..when you are firing from a distance your character uses the bows and up close use the melee..so simple, and we're so use to harder games..

How's the puter doing??

Ingie

Ahh so, that's cool. Thank you Ingie.

This game looks to be a long game so maybe this game will last me until Oblivian (got it right this time) comes out.

So Far (knock on wood) my computer is doing what it's supposed to.

Maybe they finally got it this time.

My mom always says "3 times the charm"..third one back to you from purchase to healing..

This game is very large and ever so much to have to really think about before doing..what does what to whom as you die, thinking "well that wasn't it"

Ingie

Hi all,

Another question that I can't find answers for in the manual. In fact there's not a lot of info in the manual.

How do you increase the basic stats ie strength, intelligence etc.?

When I level up I can increase my skills but I can't find a way to increase attributes.

again John you don't.

Ingie

The training centers only level you up, you can raise your stats by finding good armor/weapons, and also by clicking on magic barrels you will find all throughout the game. Certain potions will raise your stats temporarily, and some really powerful potions raise them permanently.

John there are also rings and amulets that will increase your strength, magic, intelligence, speed etc. So make sure you pick those up and have someone in your party be able to identify or you'll spend lots of hard earned gold paying someone else to do it.

Thanks everyone. Now there are more things to hunt for. So I guess I'll just look at everything that doesn't move and shoot everything that does.

Well I'm still in the Control Center - I did finish the Obelisk quests and got my 250,000 gold I also have four blasters and 2 blaster rifles. Just need to find 2 more blaster rifles. Just for the fun of it I went back to New Sorp and mowed down those golbins who gave alll that grief so many months ago - boy was that fun
