Pokey, I haven't yet. I've been taking care of my sick husband for a little while now, so I haven't had much playing time. And I thought I'd wait for a while until you caught up a bit, too.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

The relationship stuff comes quite a bit later in the story. There's at least one other romanceable character, too.
What I didn't realize about the companions for a long time is that they only accompany you on specific quests. Otherwise they just hang around looking decorative. It isn't like Dragon Age, where you have your companion/romance with you all the time if that's what you want.
What is useful about the companions when they do accompany you is that, except on the hardest setting, they can't be killed, which is pretty handy if you're in a tough situation.

I send my companion into the fray while I take potshots from afar. The companions fight until they pass out, and then they slowly recover, taking out perhaps one or two more enemies until they get knocked out again. Once the field is down to only a couple of enemies, I move in. It's cheesy, but expedient and for some of the fights it was the only way my fragile archer could survive.

I passed the trials and am a Keeper but can't find my new armor. I was on a balcony following an arrow to a door on the end but haven't found the forge. I need directions.
Edit.....nevermind, I found it on a different balcony.

The stores down there are the best in the game. Of course I waited until nightfall and robbed them blind later that night...
Haven't had much time for playing this last couple of weeks. I'm looking forward to having some free time!

Oh, yeah. Go ahead and leave Jespar and Firespark. They'll wait until you get there.
I got caught stealing a few times, though on those occasions I usually just reloaded. On a very few occasions someone caught me and barked at me, but nothing more serious than that.

I used Summons extensively for battles like this one. Cast one, make sure it's engaged with the enemy, then hide until the summons is dead, then repeat. Usually the enemies would wear down over time. I once spent half an hour doing this in real time taking out a group of about ten over-powered enemies.

I think you can buy Summons spells from the vendor in Duneville, the one in the bar. Not sure about the Sun Temple, since it's necromancy.

That must be a glitch. Some of the guards in certain areas seem to be preternaturally alert to thievery, but reloading always got me out of a jam.
Was it a special enchanted bow, or just a bow? I found a couple of excellent bows, but I also put tons of points into crafting and made myself the Bone bow, which is awesome.

Yes, you can upgrade enchanted weapons if you have the right skills. I haven't got my game open right now, but the blacksmithing tree, as far as I remember, doesn't include enchanted weapons. That skill is in one of the magic skill Memory trees, in the centre (can't remember which one).
I found the blacksmithing skills to be essential and created some pretty great stuff, including armour sets and major bows.

At level 35 you should be getting pretty powerful, too. That was about the level where I felt I could explore without being killed every few minutes. There never was a point where I felt invincible.
I've been catching up on my TV shows but will getting back to my game soon. I still have to take out that main boss. I've been putting it off because he talks, and talks, and talks, and talks, and if he wasn't my main antagonist I would kill him anyway just for being a pedantic bore.

I hated that pouch-throwing incident. It almost turned into a computer-throwing incident.
What level are you at now?
