[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]I think it's 'all hits are Critical Hits IF your Luck roll is successful". That's a BIG IF.[/QUOTE]

A Luck roll? How does that work for this? Is a luck roll usually needed for a critcical hit?

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]I wouldn't mess with the guts of anything electrical if it was plugged in! I have always been afraid of elecricity since I saw my brother get electrocuted. He was ok, just burned on his hand and badly shaken, but I was only a kid at the time, and I saw it.[/QUOTE]

Ahh, I understand. I wouldn't be too happy about it myself in that case.
Then I'd recommend buying one of the anti-static bands that go over your hand. Of course, that is plugged in as it draws any static off you and earths you.
I believe on most motherboards there is a little LED that is lit if the motherboard is getting power, that is one way of being able to tell whether something else should be turned off.

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]Hows your game? Or have you stopped playing now? [/QUOTE]

Well, I don't have any real chance to play any games on Thursdays as it is my rare single full day at University (usually I have a 2-hour lecture followed by a 1-hour tutorial - adding on a 1hr 30 commute each way). Tomorrow, I'll have the chance to play the game for a bit as I don't need to go in to London.

Next week, however, remains a total mystery to me. The University have organised some kind of week where they try to build skills that apparently will help us in the business world. It wasn't too helpful last year and with the University's lack of organisation (for example on Monday they expect everyone from the Computing and Mathematics School to register at 9am, although this could be 200+ students ). The only thing I know about next week is the registration thing and that they're putting us into groups.

When I do get back to Lionheart I'll need to start selling and buying equipment I think. That was what I had planned to do. Then perhaps, I'll pay a visit to the Caverns of Nostradamus and see how I cope there.

[QUOTE=Ravager] A Luck roll? How does that work for this? Is a luck roll usually needed for a critcical hit? [/quote]

Well, it says in the Manual that Luck plays a small but significant part in everything, so I assume there is a Luck roll for LOTS of things - from what you find in a chest or Treasure pool, to how effectively you hit a target.
When you hit an opponant, you don't just get the same amount of damage for every hit, it varies - and Luck will be one factor in that, I should imagine.

I didn't know you could get anything like that. You can be sure that if I ever find a local class, I shall make close enquiries about safety factors!

Only one full day a week? Lucky you!

If you have time, hey? What with all that studying *cough*. :laugh:

Actually, I really want to see your final character stats to compare with my char.

In the meantime I've started another game with a Ranged char. She is now lvl20 and I have come to the conclusion that although she is pretty good, HtH has a definite edge over Ranged. But I've played Ranged before and I know how it works, so it's a bit boring.
So I think I may abandon it and start a Two-Hand Melee with a Feralkin. And a Bestial Spirit and a Tribal Magic branch. Not done that combination before.

*nods* There are quite a few things hidden in the game system. I think there's a stat called Karma that is reduced by an item added by the game patch (that's how I know about the Karma). There's probably a dozen other hidden things too.
It's also possible that it's just another of the game errata and the roll is not from Luck but something else.

Oh, my dad has a kit of small screwdrivers, little dust brushes and stuff as well as one of those anti-static bands you place over your hand. He has no idea what the proper name for them is though.
It's like a band of elastic, you place your hand in and it has a wire leading to a plug. Maybe you'll be able to find someone who knows what it is.
What about things like Learndirect? They may offer those kind of courses. Or a Community College. That sort of thing.


[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]Only one full day a week? Lucky you![/QUOTE]

Yeah.
One 'full' day with two lectures and two days with one lecture each.
Though now I have 4 courseworks to do (one due in Feb, the others in March) and I have to search for an internship for the next academic year - I really have to motivate myself to do that.
I got 67 and 73% on some courseworks I completed just before Christmas, so hopefully I can keep that kind of rate up.

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]If you have time, hey? What with all that studying *cough*. :laugh:

Oddly, I don't play that many games lately. I'm on the Internet a lot, but my games are with another computer in a different house.
Still, I'll motivate myself to carry on with Lionheart too (dependent on my unknown schedule of course).

Maybe you could have a go with the Domination branch. From the ciouple of tests I've had with it so far, it seems quite promising. Turning enemies against each other is always useful. :devil:

The Manual - and we all know accurate that is - says "with a successful Luck roll" for the Slayer Perk, and the Readme note for Slayer doesn't change that. Blerk.

Yes, I've seen people make comments about Karma, but I've not got any patches/updates, so I don't know if it applies to my game. Unless having dealings with a demon affects Karma, and that is why Alvarez at the crossroads will only show one lot of goods afterwards until you've done more good deeds?

Oh, you don't need to do it if it's only to give me your final stats! I can live without 'em.

BTW, are you still trying with The Bard's Tale? I intend to look for it later this week when I go into the city.

Ah. Too late. I decided on Tribal rotective, 2-Hand Melee, and Evasion as her Tag skills. Her Racial is Monkey Brains, her other Traits are Good Natured and Studious Tinkerer - and yes, I DO know that the combination of those 3 REALLY screws up Ranged! I have no intention of using Ranged, though, so it doesn't matter. She is currently level 7. 2-Hand Melee looks as clumsy and slow as it did last time I tried it, but I will persevere. It packs a nice wallop and I can deal with undead without Exorcism (I'm not putting points into Smite at all, and not many into Fortitude - just enough to have Healing). I am adding points into Thought:Ice, though. I found that VERY useful at the end of the last game.

I think the patch item affects a stat already in the game, but the item highlights that stat, without the item as far as anyone would know, that Karma stat doesn't exist.

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]Meh. Learndirect is something I've not thought of; Thanks. Community Colleges are generally for Under-30s aren't they?[/QUOTE]

I just dug out a prospectus which I was given a while back (it was suggested I enrol for a course during the 5 month break between the last and current academic years). It says it's open to any ages and there's a discount for those over 60. Um...if you are over 60. I couldn't see a technical course, but it's entirely possible that there could be one nearer you. It says it's an 'Adult Community College'.

It's okay, I've managed to clear out some of the Nostradamus areas (outside and 1/2 of the Clan of the Hand caverns). Now I'm up to Level 24.

Hmm, I haven't tried it that much, I got a bit stuck with the combat system in there. When enemies attack, they seem to hit a lot, unless the block them (Right mouse button), but you can't keep it clicked down to stay blocking, it only lasts a while - which is realistic, but it takes a bit of getting used to. If I was playing games more often I'd devote more time to it, I suppose, I'e just left it alone for now.

Hehe. I haven't memorised the trait benefits yet.
2-Handed Melee is worth the time. It does a LOT more damage, I was pleasantly surprised by it.
Good luck with it.

Not played for a couple of days. I either have a severe cold/cough, or mild influenza. I feel rotten. Will post when I feel more the thing.

I'm sorry to hear that.
I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for looking for me, Ravager. Yep, I AM over 60: almost 69, in fact. But I've only seen courses in such colleges to learn how to operate certain 'office-work' related computer stuff. Nothing practical/technical, as you say.

Meh. I found a site with graphics and stuff. Not impressed. So I probably won't buy it - especially if the combat system is so awful.

Me either - I have the Manual handy, lol!

Yep, 2-hand melee does pack a wallop. But is very slow. However, I'm using Slow from the Tribal: Domination branch, which helps. I'm going to build it up, I think, even though I have taken Tribal rotective as the Tag skill. I think your suggestion to take Domination was a good one.

And thanks! I'm not by any means better yet, but I'm not feeling so dreadful as I did yesterday and the previous day. And at least my voice is coming back...

Sure.
I hope you manage to find some coursethat provides what you want.
Failing that, you could look for guidebooks or Internet based tutorials.
Here's a bunch of possible books: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/ ... 49-5279167

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]Meh. I found a site with graphics and stuff. Not impressed. So I probably won't buy it - especially if the combat system is so awful.[/QUOTE]

The graphics aren't that bad and the combat system isn't so awful, I think. It just takes some practice. I suppose I'm just used to a slightly different system. The humour in the game is excellent and I think it was £14.99 when I bought it off Amazon, I think it's worth that price.
It may be a DVD game, so make sure you check for that if you don't have a DVD-ROM (or better).

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]Me either - I have the Manual handy, lol![/QUOTE]

Heh. Well, you're lucky. I have a copy of the manual with the game, but that's not here, so most of the tips I give are just dredged up from memory.

*nods* I used the Divine skills in tandem with 2-handed weaponry. Using Weaken Enemies to lower their Crushing resistances, Divine Favour to increase your Crushing damage and then equipping a weapon like The Everlasting (the anti-Goblin Hammer ) can be absolutely devastating to an enemy force.

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]And thanks! I'm not by any means better yet, but I'm not feeling so dreadful as I did yesterday and the previous day. And at least my voice is coming back... [/QUOTE]

Now why didn't I think of books? I love reading! Some of those look just the thing - I'll check out Waterstones and Border's next time I go to town. Thanks. But I would still like someone to actually BE THERE and SHOW me. I'm not at all mechanically minded. I can't even programme a video player.

Yes, I got Everlasting this game. Never bothered with it before because none of my chars could have used it, I didn't want to spend that much for it, and I wasn't sure I could kill the Bounty Hunters to get it that way, anyway. I didn't want to buy it this time, either, so I didn't!:devil:
Anyway, it's an excellent weapon, even when not used against goblins. I'm optimistic that it will do well against trolls, too. Seems to me trolls will be more susceptible to crushing than to piercing or slashing.

Just arrived in Montserrat Grove, btw, at level 16, with this character.

[QUOTE=Ravager]I hope you get back to normal self quickly. [/QUOTE]

Thanks! Me too!

Karma affects the game whether or not you have patches. You actually get negative karma when doing one of many evil deeds in the game, like killing people that tell you to get out when you enter their homes and attack you when you don't, or killing dumb thiefs instead of finding a peaceful way to trick them into backing off. I know because I've been using the GameBanshee walkthrough =P.

*nods* And the Amulet of Dour Tidings (provided in the patched game) decreases yet another hidden attribute - the Fortune attribute I believe. Maybe this is what has an effect on items recovered throughout the game?

@Fljotsdale, books aren't that great a subsitute for actual teaching, but those should be a good start at least.
Heh. I don't think many people can program VCR's. I'm not too good with any VCR's that don't have VideoPlus systems.

Yeah, that's what I found when using the Everlasting. The bonus to the weapon skill certainly makes a difference.

You're certainly making a lot of progress, I on the other hand haven't played that much. I cleared the Clan of the Hand caves and all the ones that lead off that place and killed all the Titans and the daeva in Toulouse. Normally I negotiate with those Titans but I felt like a change and perhaps I gained more XP as a result.

ROFL!! My son-in-law looks at me pityingly - so maybe I should tell him I know a 20+ young man who can't do it either?

[QUOTE=Ravager]Yeah, that's what I found when using the Everlasting. The bonus to the weapon skill certainly makes a difference.[/quote]

Yes, it does. But the Titan's of the Pyrenees map were hammering my girl a bit even though she has some Plate Mail of Protection and Electrical Resistance - until we got to lvl20 and I took the Damage Resistance perk, which has helped. I almost took Two-Weapon Finesse, but I'd only have got 5 points instead of 10.

I negotiated with them first time only, and had to finish up killing the old Titan protecting the Templar. Since then, I've killed them - as I intend to do this time as well. After all, they are not very nice.

[QUOTE=Fljotsdale]I think maybe I'm glad I don't have the patch after all![/QUOTE]

Hehe.You already have the Fortune ability in the unpatched version and I don't really bother wearing the amulet anyway.

LOL! Give him 10 different VCR's and I bet they're all very different. I suppose I've had reasonable practice with them now, fiddling around with whatever new VCR my grandparents get (it's always a horrendously complex piece of machinery ) and setting a VCR to record off Digital TV (that's not so easy, you know.
The worst ones are those where you have to set the times for programmes manually, it's enough work in some cases just finding a code for a programme and navigating a menu system to put it in...then remembering to press the button to set it ready to record.
Though having said that, I have no problems with the VCR I have.

I don't think I had too much trouble with the Titans, they're very vulnerable to Crushing damage. Doesn't Two-Weapon Finesse lead to another perk? That could be worthwhile.

I think it's one of those grey area quests. After all the Titans want to reclaim the history of their tribe and they're just taking action to reclaim it. Lucius knew of his responsibility and probably chose the Memory job in his tribe, now he doesn't want to die despite that. It's one of those 'sacrifice one for the greater good' things.
Though it's true, the Titans aren't all that nice...even if the reward they give out is.

I just noticed that the description of Luck says that It represents a combination of fate, karma and just general good fortune. From that, I'm going to have to guess that Karma and Fortune are derived attributes from Luck . ^^

Yeah, that's probably true. I wonder how many other hidden attributes are in the game...
How far into the game are you now, BallofFire?

I reached level 9 with my ranged character, and then powergaming ruined it for me. Now I'm a level 5 fire mage/unarmed fighter that I'm playing multiplayer with a friend, which I must say is far more fun than singleplayer. I don't have to heal myself or invest in thieving skills, and I have company that can actually speak back to me.

Oh, that sounds good. I've never tried the game in multiplayer mode. Are the enemies still difficult when you have two players (and no crazy henchmen that run into every battle )?

Yes, true. Which is why, first time, I killed Lucius for them. Yes, it is a grey area. You have to make a moral judgement, and neither side is exactly lily-white.

There are more/harder enemies on multiplayer, so yeah it is still a challenge. And when one person dies, the other can revive them with partial health at the cost of attributes (temporarily).

What is great about it is the loading. You make a mistake, the host loads the last saved game. Just like single player. Takes about 2 seconds to remedy a mistake, whereas in lots of singleplayer games turned multiplayer you have to spend half an hour quitting, rehosting, choosing settings, loading, etc.

Pity now I'm thinking maybe my character was a bad choice. If I ONLY use spells, will I just run out of mana in a few seconds and be screwed? Please say yes, so I can justify having 74 points in Unarmed. ^^
