There are two Gazer canisters? Are you sure about that? I remember one, but it's been some time.

A brief test with a level one Shaper and Greta:

PC starts with 0 experience.
Greta starts with 3100 experience.

Killing a low level creature in South End gave a total of 120 experience.

PC received 112 experience points for said creature - new total is 112.
Greta received 9 experience points for said creature - new total is 3109.

PC got roughly 93% and Greta got roughly 7% The same portions are given no matter who killed the creature.
Note this is for one creation (in this case Greta)

I really hope I didn't screw up the elementary math.

Have you spoken to Khyryk? He will send you to Agetha's mansion to read her notes. Return to him and tell him what you find. Do not free the Shapers before reporting back to Khyryk, as it will complicate things. He will give you the key.

This thread will help if you have trouble with Khyryk.

Can give a little more information. Are you a rebel or a loyalist? Have you spoken to everyone? The dock is within Khor's Deeps.

The higher your level, your shaping level, and your level in creating the specific creation are, the stronger the creature will be. The creature will be stronger if you create new one every once in a while.

Look at the stats of creations you've had for a while, and save the game. Than absorb them and make new ones, and than look up their stats. The creations made with greater skill will be born at a higher level.

I always preferred Greta to Alwan, as she has both magic and melee attacks. I would have liked it if Alwan had javelins at least.

Playing strictly for Zakary you will not learn level three Gazer. You would need to play for the Takers, or remain unallied until the last minute. You could also join the Takers, gain the skills, and than go join Zakary. Level three Gazer will give you an Eyebeast.

I played with a level 50 party. I did use the Artifacts Hall and HLPM for equipment and supplies. After getting better equipment I stopped dying and enjoyed Canopy very much.

Annoying? It's binary for 4808, my surname. I think it's more interesting that just plain 4808.
More intereting yes, more complicated to write, yes. I just type in a lot of 1's and 0's and hope for the best.
I've always seen it as 100 101 100 1000, but copy and paste would be simpler.

Edit: Oops, shows I'm not paying much attention.

Greta and Alwan are not really necessary. They give opinions at different times in the game, but nothing you need to know. Only one will stay with you, and even the one who chooses to stay may leave if you do certain things.

They are good early on if you are dying a lot, as a lackey that reincarnates endlessly can come in handy. If you are doing well on your own you'll advance faster if you don't have to share the experience points.

From what I've seen in your update it looks good. If I knew what I was looking for I could report better, but for now I can't play the first or second island again.

Maybe it's just me, but I've always liked using the editors where you would go to a sign or an obelisk to cheat. If someone needed items, skills, spells, experience, money…. they would go through a series of menus to get what they want. That way there is an option to receive level appropriate equipment, rather than the most powerful items in the game after opening the very first door.

Though Alwan joining you gives you maxed stats, very nice if you want to play as a God. This makes it so you can't take Alwan with you without heavily cheating. Placing these options in an obelisk or the testing ground would give the option of playing the game without cheating, but still using your scripts.

Maybe an option to raise stats by 1,2,4,5,10,30 would make it so one could cheat a little or a lot. I hope I wrote that without being offensive.

Unless I'm mistaken you are saying... You put your scripts folder somewhere else, and than put abbandon's edited scripts folder in the GF3 files folder. When you opened the game after doing that nothing was different?

I don't know where the Shapers are, but each pool has a control panel somewhere near by. They are all very close, as long as your mechanics is up you can turn them off.

Last minute or not, they still repented. Is that not the same as deathbed repentance? Though one is while living and the other after death. The person is still asking to be forgiven while in a dire state.

THE GREAT DEBATE in General

I think consciousness would be relative to the species. That is to say a horse is more conscious than a bee. Both react to stimuli, but mammals have a different levels of understanding than insects. Animals such as deer are more instinct driven than intellectually conscious, but what about dolphins and monkeys?

Higher forms of mammals are capable of learning. Gorillas can learn sign language, and communicate with humans, and dolphins and whales have complicated languages.

For that matter my dog dreams at night. Sometimes he wags his tail, kicks his feet, or makes growling or small barking sounds. Is dreaming a sign of consciousness? It certainly isn't instinctually necessary.

If you are looking for literally the whole world, I would say possibly Noah's Arch. He was not a hero in the RPG sense, but saving every creature is saving the entire world.

No need to get upset. If you release an editor you should expect everyone to tell you everything they find.
