Perfect shield in Geneforge Series
FAQSELF

The price is a reference, but not the only reference. The guardian claymore is one of the most versatile weapons in the game- everyone can use it and everyone wants it, but the spectral rapier has better stats at first glance- a bonus to armor, to parry, to stun resistance, and a higher base damage. However, that's easily countered by the bonus to strength from the guardian claymore.

The price is best as an order-of-magnitude guess. If a piece of armor is 10x more expensive than another armor, then the more expensive one is almost definitely better. Differences of a few hundred when the item itself is a few hundred don't mean much.

Quick question for those who have played through as rebels- are there any other trainers who will increase your skills in the forbidden spells/shapings? I know Fanjul will train you for cheap in the shaping that Rahul's wife also teaches, but are there any other rebel only trainers?

If not, it seems that the loyalists should have little trouble blowing away their enemies.

Weight is a great idea, but probably something I'm not going to be able to do at present since it's been a pain finding all those items a second time, and a third will probably drive me crazy. Although if it comes down to it, I could just look up the scripts.

Hopefully the item list will be straightened up a bit shortly, and will look better in the next version.

Hi all, the FAQ has been updated. I've taken most peoples comments/additions up through Saturday and have added them.

Also, the layout is slightly improved- a bit more definition between sections. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

The recipes section is actually designed to look like that- namely the two critical ingredients are above and below the perfected item. I did this so that people can see the choices they have for the artifacts. However, I can see how it would be confusing. I will add some text describing this better.

An update with most of this info will be followed up with tomorrow. Thank you all!

Gamefaqs only allows text documents, so no division via html. Zeviz helped a bundle with splitting A2 and Nethergate, though.

EDIT: If you would like, once I've finished, I'm open to having someone make a webpage out of it.

Thank you all for the additions. I will try putting them in shortly.

Blackjack- thanks, will add. I had figured out the increase in QA from the tiny orb of mist, but I haven't tried any tests with it.

Walter- Has that been verified with Essence Armor? I thought people had found it didn't do that. Hm. Also, any idea on the damage percent lost by parry? I know that's part of the description, but I want to make sure it actually does that.

Hume- thanks, will add.

7 canisters, and augmentation by Tolleran, Orois Blaze, and Resnick doesn't count.

I asked Jeff Vogel about this, and here's what he said:

quote:
Try it. You should find that the exit boat will be available even if you can't talk to Rahul. Its appearance is keyed off of what you do in the Geneforge area, not who you talk to. I knew exactly this sort of thing could happen.

So it looks like you could still complete after all. Did you look for the boat?

You're right. I caught this in the walkthrough, but it didn't make it to the list. I've added it now though.

Thanks.

Hey Zeviz- still no searer canister as far as I can tell- do you know where on the map to get it?

Did a quick bit of testing with some of the spells-

Essence shield and armor both increase your dodging ability, but do not reduce the amount of damage taken. Steel skin and protection both drop the amount of damage taken from a hit by 20%.
