You can also randomly get a Glaahk Shield by killing a Glaahk or Ur-Glaahk. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |
-x% to hit chance in Geneforge 4: Rebellion | |

Some armour provides a -x% to hit chance. I had always assumed that this meant that it is a penalty that reduces your "to hit" probability, esp since some weapons and armour have a +x% to hit chance. Is that correct, or is it the other way round (ie it reduces enemies' chance of hitting you?) Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

Is it an accident that the warmth ring provides +25% fire resistance while the chilling band provides +15% fire resistance? Shouldn't the warmth ring provide cold resistance instead? Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

I don't find Monarch to be particularly difficult as long as you do two things: 1. Find the baton 2. Don't use your main character to engage in melee with him. Not finding the baton is irritating, but not fatal. It just means that the guys you recruit from the rebels are going to have a harder time fighting the rogues. The 2nd point is more important... maybe a hint in the dialogues that Monarch is dificult to fight hand-to-hand. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

I was poking around with the logic used in the scripts... what happens to Alwan if you never get the pass from him in Rivergate Keep (ie you don't choose the right dialogue options or worse still your reputation is too pro-Rebel)? If you meet him in Burwood for the end-game, is he still at Rivergate Keep if you go back? Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

You need to find a bed and rest in it... the southwestern part of the room there are a few cots for you to lie down in. This leads to a scripted event. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

I was helping both the Shapers and the rebels, only I left the Fens without talking to Greta. No cheats involved. When I came back, I did get the dialogue options when I spoke to Greta. Just seems strange that she would be in the camp when the drakons are supposed to have kidnapped her. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

I noticed that the game assumes that you pay a visit to Greta in the rebel camp after you've killed Monarch but before you go into Burkwood. In my game, I killed Monarch, got to get out of the Fens and Litalia was telling me that Greta's been kidnapped by the drakons. However, when I went back to the rebel camp in the swamp in order to sell more swamp herbs, Greta was still there. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |
Northwest corner of Crumbling Lab in Geneforge Series | |

One nice thing about GF3 is that there are several maps which are filled with rubble, which can often be cleared. Examples include Darkstone Mine, where it gives you access to an anvil, and the first 2 map areas, which clear up (partially) after a few days. (incidentally, you can go back to the first map to pick up a few minor goodies) But my question is regarding Crumbling Lab on Gull. There is a section in the NW corner which is blocked off, and you can even see a door in that section. Is it ever possible to unblock that section and open the door?

The Golden Crystal, on a weapon, increases the damage inflicted by the weapon, in its primary damage type. (opposed to steel spines infllicting a separate physical damage) The Tiny Orb of Mist on weapon increases QA. Don't know by how much. You may wish to add that Greta will leave you just before you take the boat from Harmony to Dhonal's isle if you have killed Lankan and the rebels.

Though Guardians should almost always use the "Drain Life" enhancement on their swords, I think that the Stunning Blade, if accompanied by a stunning enhancement, could be essentially be a one-hit kill. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

Oops - confused this with the other box that required ridiculously high mechanics to open. The "crystal spool" is used in a quest. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

I'm making a list of items by trawling through the scripts. Here's part I: the cloaks and robes. My comments are below. (Formatting is a bit off, so apologies) (Pls post if you found any typos) Cloak/Robes %P Wt Value Specials Cloak 2 2 5 Fine Cloak 4 2 20 Shaped Fiber Cloak 6 2 800 +5% to hit Drakon Skin Cloak 8 2 5000 +5% to hit Fyoraskin Cloak 4 2 400 +5%FiR Coated Cloak 4 2 200 +5%EnR Polar Fur Cloak 4 2 200 +5%CoR Agent Cloak 3 2 2000 +1 BaM,MM,BlM,SC Guardian Cloak 8 2 2000 +1 MeW,MiW,QA,Parry Symbiotic Cloak 5 2 2000 +2 End, +1 MiW,QA,Parry Infiltrator Cloak 2 2 500 +1 Ldr,Mch, +2% HER Deadeye Cloak 2 2 800 +2 MiW Robe 6 5 10 Fine Robe 10 5 40 Grounded Robe 6 5 200 +5% EnR Shaper Robe 6 5 2000 +1 FiS,BaS,MaS Specter Robe 10 5 2000 +5%EnR, +15%StR, -2%FiR, Cr +10%MER Transference Robe 6 5 2000 -2 Str,Dex,End, Cr +2 Str,Dex,End Twice-Blessed Robe 10 5 3000 +2 BaM, Cr +15%MER The best cloak/robe in the game appears to be the Symbiotic Cloak... it's basically a Guardian Cloak with 3% less armour, no +1 to Melee but +2 Endurance! Who wouldn't trade 3% armour and 1 melee for 2 Endurance? You also get the Symbiotic Cloaks earlier (or about the same time). It might be a typo - Jeff prolly forgot to put a "import=10" in the scripts, in which case the Symbiotic Cloak becomes a more reasonable item (i.e. no bonus to Missle, QA or Parry) The Specter Robe is also a great item, and you get it pretty early too. The rest are so-so... Shapers may like the Transference Robe. Basically, all cloaks weigh 2 lbs, while robes weigh 5 lbs, so there's little to pick from there. And they can all be augmented by crystals. Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |

For q1: you can get Agent Cloaks with high luck. I don't know where that can happen, but at Phasia's Steelworks I got an agent cloak when one of the ghosts (not Zerik) dies. It doesn't happen all the time (or even often). Posts: 77 | Registered: Sunday, August 10 2003 07:00 |
