countering freezing? in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Tuesday, July 18 2006 07:10 Profile Homepage #21 jees.. the point is - ANYONE can be hit by bind foe lvl 1. anything in the entire game. however, there are ALOT of creatures which are resistant to paralysis or sleep. actually, i was quite weak at the time - so i had becca <damn supercharacter> whack on gharzad whilst i spammed bind foe using my other 3 characters on everything else <i also summoned a couple rakshasha and hakaai> basically - if you are fighting a so called "boss" - like athron - then all you need to do is cast bind foe lvl 1 and shes dead you cant use bind for lvl 2-3 to kill her. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

Avernum V ideas in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Saturday, July 15 2006 04:17 Profile Homepage #149 tbh, i prefer the avernum engine. well ok - the geneforge graphics and whatnot im not too worried about. graphics never REALLY bothered me - however things like clicking on the ground to move, no longer being able to type "m-a-a" and being able to do multiple targeting with lightning is slightly stranger. i would like more powerful summons in the next game, and a return of the "avernum feel" - the new graphics are alright really. ive grown to be ok with them. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

dont like summons? in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Friday, July 14 2006 23:23 Profile Homepage #27 soul crystals were great! i loved summoning hakaai and rakshasha though it did puzzle me a bit - in A2 when you did arcane summon, you summoned first a vampire, then a demon, then an eyebeast i found that even though eyebeast is lvl 3, it is weakest of the lot :-/ -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

dont like summons? in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Friday, June 30 2006 23:00 Profile Homepage #0 yes i AM playing a 4 person party atm.... consisting of one tank, and 2 mages <and one priest> anyways ive found that most summons are ofc.. useless. however, have also found, that shades are extremely useful. in big fights, or "boss fights" - when hasted, blessed, protected etc. <things you should ALWAYS have before boss fights> - they deal on average 40-50 damage per turn each, and double curse - aswell as tank - and are immune to those damn freezing particles that many bosses cast. not only that, greater shades are REALLY strong, and have a HIGH to hit percentage. although they not may seem much - against nicoduas <zomgz impossible battle> - i didnt use a single potion during that battle <cept for a few energy potions - no invuln potions though> - before i got into the "hes about to cast a spell" - i summoned 8 shades <4 of which were greater shades> and then mass haste - bless etc. - through all previous metheods i didnt stand a chance against him, but this time i outright killed him before he even cast his demon spell :o does anyone else use shades? -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

New melee/archer options for A5 in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Wednesday, June 21 2006 03:45 Profile Homepage #31 quote: Personally I'm glad it's gone. It's just an extra variable that really existed only to force the player to spend money on food. The only real place that food became a somewhat integral part of the adventure was in Exile 2 in the Dark Waters. Don't get me wrong, food can really add to the atmosphere if the object of the game is survival. Otherwise, it's just an added nuisence. Also, once you got the Manna spell, food became really pointless. ah you see thats where youre wrong people didnt REALLY care about food... it was all about the skribbane herb :P -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

Avernum V ideas in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Monday, June 19 2006 11:12 Profile Homepage #71 no i think exile 3 WAS perfect. it was much harder though, no doubt, but it definately was perfect. i mean, the super mages really made it tough to play and if you dont have the right setup in your party, then thats most likely your fault - you shoulda gone into fighting mode, casted debuffs/buffs and tanked properly in the first place :P see thats what i mean - exile is just so much more indepth - the battles are much more than "hack n slash" - each battle you have to think through carefully and plan it right. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

New melee/archer options for A5 in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Monday, June 19 2006 02:39 Profile Homepage #24 back in exile with six characters i had 2 tanks, one archer and 1 mage, 1 priest, and 1 mage/priest now it was true - it was the casters that did alot of the work. however i found tha all the skills that the tanks could provide were also just as useful, in particular potion making. they were stocked heavily with potions, and also were VERY useful with their attack buffs/debuffs. posion potion on sword saved me many times over when fighting more resistant enimies. i wouldnt mind to see status enducing , or special effect spells on warriors - basically things that mages dont normally do like coating their weapon with poison, or stunning the other character with their strike, or adding debuffs to their attack. something like.. an active skill, which would have a passive effect. this way you dont get the problem of fighters taking over, because most priests/mages rely on their active effects, with active skills. purely passive skills simply add no intensity - assassination, riposte, parry etc. - they are just there. but passive skills which can be activated <poison, debuffs to attack, etc.> would definately fit the line much better. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Sunday, June 11 2006 11:34 Profile Homepage #8 well also the gameplay felt more like geneforge, and less like avernum which was a shame. like, i preferred it when you could walk into a town on the map, instead of actually having the town there - then again some people prefer it that way so.. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

fan made graphics? in Avernum 4
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Sunday, June 11 2006 00:28 Profile Homepage #0 as we were told, one of the big reasons why av 4 looks so much like geneforge, is because good graphics are extraordinarily expensive <or rather, hard to make and very time consuming> i know out there in the community there are plenty of people willing to make graphics for this game <i know i would> - even if i had to do it the old exile way - making each step and graphic one by one for all different directions, casting spells, arrows, moving left right up and down, fighting, holding swords, daggers etc. it really pained me to see that alot of the graphics like pots and cuboards and stuff were just the same as geneforge, and that the game resembled geneforge so much - instead of being more true to the previous avernum and the exile series <though ofc, exile had about 100 spells in the third one, and it was almost impossible to beat the game on hardest difficulty :P > i mean, IF an avernum 5 comes out <god forbid :P > perhaps there might be a fanbase for making graphics for the game? or maybe even a patch to the current game. i mean, i like how avernum is basically like a 3d <easier> exile :P but not like a geneforge -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

Erotic or offensive art question in General
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Thursday, September 25 2003 09:15 Profile Homepage #52 them vaylkeries post a threat in the game but honestly, this game i assure you will not appeal to a young age group. perhaps a very very small section. i am slightly appealed to it, but im only 13. and to be honest anyone at my age would not play civilisation. i had a Go at civilisation, and it was ok. that was about it, jus tok. however peopel like my older brother and larger teens at about 18-22 would find great interest in a game of this style. thats just my opinion -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?

Erotic or offensive art question in General
BrTarolg Warrior Member # 1467	written Sunday, September 21 2003 08:05 Profile Homepage #35 thats odd. i had a go at playing leylines. i couldnt see any of the portraits. probably not finished. i did however see the girl on the sidebar that was completely naked. i know what you mean. leylines is an ok game. a bit too civilisation like for me though. as for the naked firl on the sidebar, damn, they had to cover one nipple with a twinkly star, and her under parts with the exit sign. -------------------- Brother Glorat The world is merciless, why should i care?
