Hey people,

I was just wondering if age had an effect on you character (besides your older appearance). Does it influence any of your skills/stats ??? Can you die of old age (sure don't hope so). And I heard rumours about reversing the age process by donating 70.000 gp at some temple, how does that work ??? Do you become a child again ??? Many tnx for your time and answers.

Nope age does not matter 1 bit my friend. Frankly I don't know why they put it in the game other than some diverse looking chars. Just grow old get the necromancer title at the Dark Wood Chapel of Skorm for sacrificing a lot of people and get old so you have grey hair and look your a necromancer from Diablo II. For age reverse go to the Dark Wood Chapel of Skorm and sacrifice a lot of people at night, or go to the Witch Wood Temple of Avo and donate a lot of gold, bith age reverse takes away 5-10 or 12 years.

Edit: The max age is 65 ( and I know since my good spell warrior has maxed out all his stats)

No, age has no effect on the game other than to act as a "level" counter.

Each time you spend experience to purchace stat and spell improvements, you're character ages one year.

Older characters do look older but not old a.k.a. frail, shorter, weaker, etc.

Oddly enough, increases to strength don't seem to show either....could be wrong, though

Aging really shows at night under moonlight, then your scars really stand out.

Yes the more experince yo spend in might the more musculier you are. Geta cahracter with maxed might and he is this big guy that looks like he's on steroiods nad max out skill and your guy is pretty tall.

i wonder if it's all strength attributes or only one of them (physic, health or toughness). My archer had maxed out health but he didn't look any buffer then he did at the beginning. It's probably toughness since on the clip when you select toughness you see a skinny guy become buff...
opinions?

...
as simple as what i wrote was, let me make it even more simpler:
Only toughness makes you look buffer instead of all strength attributes making you look buffer.
