Dav — have a look at my list early in this thread. I've been updating it as I go through my singleton game, and the Shockwave Bow is in there.

Once again, good work, Your Slartiness. If I were to reconstruct my singleton anew, I would also choose Pure Spirit over Natural Mage. The SP savings in additional Priest Spells are well worth it, as well as more effective spells. If you use the Emerald Chestguard, as I am, then encumbrance isn't even an issue with haste. The Divine Priesthood rules for the singleton, the lonely path of divine smiting holiness unto completion. I'd still like to know the diff between level 2 of spells and higher levels. This would answer whether or not Arcane Lore is worth investing in at all whatsoever. I have 2 levels of any spell I have at all. Maybe Magery/Spellcraft/Priest or Mage level add up to much more than spell level learned. I'd probably forego Tool Use for Priest power, defensive power, and/or Arcane Lore.

Happy New Year to each of you, brought here disparately together by the unlikely and relatively trivial commonality of a love of fantasy role play games, at least the Spiderweb variety if nothing further. I played Ultima IV a long time ago, and Diablo I not so long ago. Apart from that, I considered fantasy role play games the domain of the geekish set. How humbling to be so seduced by the offerings of the Spiderweb. But enough about me. Two hours to go here till 2006. I like even numbered years better than odd numbered years. Is that wrong? Perhaps others feel contrarily. I still find it remarkable I lived to see the transition of millennia in my lifetime. That is a rare privilege, yet entirely insignificant on another level, considering the arbitration of numbers. And the 2000's are so entirely different from what I imagined they would be in my youngest years, looking forward to them. Perhaps, unless one thinks mystically in pondering sayings from, say, the Bible, which suggest, "A day with the Lord is as a thousand years" (is He THAT boring? ;) ) and if the history of humankind is 4000 years B.C. (as the Catholics chart it) and roughly 2000 years since Christ, then we have entered the seventh day of God's rest, which should mean we're all to be entering the seventh day of fullness and completing and perfecting of things, and a day of rest after much toil. Or it could just be another day in a post-industrial age of complex human challenges. Whichever way, here we are now, or shortly, in 2006, and we still aren't flying around in personal spaceships (oh thank God—we haven't learned to navigate two dimensions reliably yet, most of us) or using laser guns in combat. We are in this century facing the international threat of terrorism, ecological conundrums (are we tired of pooping in our own nests yet or what?) and scientific challenges for ethics (cloning?) and the disintegration of mega-nations into ethnic nation states in this century (Texas becomes its own nation in twenty years—you'll see). These are the momentary thoughts of this one peson facing a new year in a still pretty new millennium in the wonderful, terrifying, fascinating history of humankind. Of which you each partake, like it or not. I think it's a pretty cool privilege, personally. Love. Joy. Peace.

Regarding traps: I just set one off with my singleton, unintentionally (I blame the port wine) and received all of 8 fire damage from it, in Dharmon. Tool Use looks more dispensible for singletons all the time. Oh, except that there are four traps in sequence in order to acquire Demonslayer. I supppose it might be possible to endure them with an Invulnerability potion and fight the summons on the last one. Demonslayer is useful against the Final Foe, but not really very beefy or necessary otherwise. I use the Oozing Blade most of the time.

Hey Thurly, do the wasps like overripe fruit down there in Oz as much as they do up here in the Emerald City? My hatred of the Yellow Jacket has been forever burned into my brain by several dozen childhood stings. I kill any upon sight whenever possible now. And then there was the fall afternoon I joyfully ran home from school knowing the Italian Prunes were ripe down in my lower yard at last—which I love even more than plums. Imagine my horror to find a gigantic paper nest full of hornets hanging in the prune tree. The joys of Dispatching the Enemy followed shortly, and my Dad got the worst of it. -------------------- A4 Items List A4 Singleton G4 Items List G4 Forging List G4 Insidious Infiltrator NR Items List Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

I don't know, man. I was just talking about cutting out Tool Use as a way of reducing spent points, and adding 10 Arcane Lore would be a wash at best, if one foregoes the Tool Use. Dispel Barriers WOULD be nice, though, for sure. More loot to be had that way, if nothing more. UPDATE: My solo nephil is now at level 33, basically at end-game level for four PC's. Due to training and gear, he has 6 Strength, 5 Dex, 4 Int, 6 End, 6 Quick Action, 4 Quick Strike, 5 Lethal Blow, 6 Parry, 11 Sharpshooter, 12 Magery, 5 Gymnastics, 2 Anatomy, 17 Blademaster, 9 Bows,. I'm still at 7 Luck, and 11 Tool Use. Priest Spells are up to 10, which is good for Divine Fire, thank God (picture nephil on bended knee whilst incinerating pesky bandits). My basic stats (the first four) are pretty lame. You can see why I regret the 8 or 9 points I misinvested in Mage Spells as well as why I am thinking that I could have foregone 11 Tool Use (something like 55-60 SP there). I could have been DONE with priest spells now, or I could have 10 Arcane Lore instead, or I could have beefier defense (trainable Gymnastics, more Dex and Parry and Luck) as well as more Quick Action, of which I really should have some more. Being at such a high level, I have 122 Health Points and 147 Spell Points from leveling up (I only have 4 Intelligence). This gives me a bit to work with in protracted battles already which is helpful. I've got lots to go yet, though. I'm about 3/5 through this game, I'd say. I am scooting about on errands around the Castle and Patrick's Tower. I cleaned up the demons under Patrick's Tower. The main baddie was no big deal, but the "lesser" one off to the east a bit was a hassle, till I figured out an easy, but tedious way to take him out, and fortunately, it didn't require Invulnerability. It did take about four or five energy potions though. This should work for any size party. All it requires is that every single turn you slow Bozo down once. He will spend every turn hasting himself and his beloved four pylons up. So acid and whittle the pylons one by one (starting with the Restoration Pylon), while slowing the big bad boy and finally douse him with liberal helpings of Repel Spirit. It took a while, but man, did it beat the alternative of going Invulnerable and dealing with reams of summonings, though it was fun to break out the Madness scrolls for that failed attempt. What IS annoying my singleton are all the Writhing Mass goos which love to harrass me on the way out of a cave after a draining battle. They have an annoyingly high number of hit points, and while not a grave threat, are a big pain. Fortunately, I have most of the tunnels mopped up now. I'm getting anywhere from zero to low double-digits for kills...basically, similar levels on and off since the Eastern Gallery. In fact, it's been better for some time than it was way back there when I was levelling up so fast around Fort Draco and Formello where you hit your first severely diminishing returns. I've got more money than I know what to do with. I have like 20 fine leathers sitting around. I have a big pile of wands. I have been stashing many of the unique items, so I couuld have a lot more loot if I ever needed to cash in. Once past the Eastern Gallery, the only thing I have bought or trained in is Bows, Sharpshooter, and Quick Strike. It's a ways off before I can kill the shades (wonder how THAT will go?) and get acces to Parry and Blademaster—why would I need more of Blademaster? I'll buy it anyways. Is there a damage cap on swords? I bet I'm already at it. I'm getting up to 50-something on sword hits at present, more than I ever used to get with my party of four dedicated melee man. Resistance and Magical Efficiency are still a ways off, and I dread what I have to do first to get them. I'm getting hit about half of the time at this point. I want to be more dodgy. I'm not sure how many more levels I'm going to get out of this game. I need like 9 levels worth of SP to get my Divine Retribution, I think. Yikes.

The main part of Erika's ruins are to the west across the river from where you are. That is where you will find the proper way in there. You can't get in from where you are. Nice, huh? No need to try to rush over there just now either.

I'll tell you what I did with my singleton. I killed the guys upstairs first and went back to Fort Samuels to replenish. I went down below and took out all the pylons one by one with acid from a safe distance till they were gone from all three areas. I went to the far SW room and activated the monster vats, came out and took out the creepy crawlies from around corners and with lots of in-your-face melee. This was all very easy compared to doing both at once, obviously, which I had always done before. The first time one plays, or if one plays as if ignorant of what comes next, one gets to face all that and then the nasty party upstairs just to escape. That's a lot of energy potions and/or invulnerability potions for a singleton in particular. This method, which occurred to me on the spot, but might be what Alo meant he did a while back (but I never quite understood) required none of either, thanks to the replenishment birdbath provided. I don't get the impression that Enduring Shield/Armor contribute a whole lot to dodging ability. I had a very high level priest for my two previous games, and him casting Enduring Armor onto my party did little to make them unhittable tanks. It would be good to find the actual stats on these, now that you've pointed it out.

Yeah, I suppose so. In some cases, traps (usually the second of two), summon monsters to fight. The second trap on the way to Mr. Knowledge Brews summons a golem if you trigger it, for instance. I have no idea how hard it is to survive later traps, because I've never set one off. I suppose there are ways to survive them if necessary. Kel, I know Alorael's method for handling that cave, which may be what I will do. I also bet I could probably just run out of there too, if I work it right. -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

I really can't remember anywhere near the end where Dispel Barrier is essential. My singleton has made it to the Castle and is taking on odds and ends in the Great Cave. Everything through Camp Samuels is done. I am at Level 30! I was at level 34 at the end of my last game of 4 PC's, as I recall. I am still getting points for kills though, even two digits sometimes. I added up my dodgeability. It's at 60%, but needs to be better. I am getting hit about 2/3 of the time now. Points are going into Dexterity now and then Gymnastics, though the latter is at five for being a nephil. Maybe Defense will be cheaper first, come to think of it. I am about to enter THAT CAVE off the SW sulphur flats. Wish me luck. I'm a bit worried about this one. It will take a lot of strategy and reloads I think. I am beginning to think that with the outlook for getting my tankishness up and wanting more priest spells that Tool Use is also something that needs to be largely foregone in this game. If the worst necessary door is Level 5, then magic alone could open that. Some loot would be missed by traps, and hmm, come to think of it, the route to Craftmaster Strine who makes the only Knowledge Brews in the game is trapped as I recall. I wonder what difficulty those traps are? I stopped my Tool Use at 11 and can bump it to 14 with items when necessary. So far, I have been able to disarm anything and magically I am unlocking doors of at least 22 difficulty already. One strategy for the game might have to be to forego Tool Use entirely too. This would make extras like Demonslayer out of the question, along with numerous other optional bounty, but not getting Demonslayer means not fulfilling two possible quests and that means less XP. Still, the investment to put Tool Use at 11 is way more than that difference plus any others that might get shortchanged due to no thief ability. Those SP might be needed for defensive investment and priest spells instead. We shall see... -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

No, just a barely-locked door. I think Jeff is correct that there are no obstructing barriers essential to winning the game. My singleton has cleaned out the Honeycomb, and beaten Athron's Familiar, because I really wanted what he was holding. It took three tries, but was really quite easy, when I stopped fussing over the pylons so much and just focused on the big bad boy. Once I took out the gray (inactive) pylon, I just bombarded big boy with acid, slow spells, and repel spirit till he was no more. I also picked up the Oozing Sword from the goo colony nearby. Vlish, I finished THE Ogre battle you apparently keep referring to...the one with the twin mages who like to cast poisoning spells...how come I can't have one of those? It wasn't so bad either, though it took about three tries to pace things out right. The trick was to only have to deal with a few baddies at a time on the way in. For the final confrontation with the chief and his troup, I used a lot of Daze and Acid before finishing them off with some Icy Clouds, Lightning Spray, and some Oozing sword strokes. I ran out of spell energy and had to come back to finish off just the chief. I am starting to not be so dodgeable now, and have started using my all too infrequent skill points to boost Dexterity and Defense. Priest spells will have to wait. I am not as tanklike now as I have been up till this point. I see no reason at the moment why I shouldn't be able to win this singleton game with some patience and persistence, though I do expect it to get significantly harder from this point on. I am still playing on Easy Level. We'll see if I can maintain my tank-like status and get the rest of my priest spells. Divine Fire and Divine Retribution are going to be pretty important, though I could imagine doing without the latter if it comes down to it. -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

I don't get it. The request is that you write about something you feel is important. It sounds like someone wants to get an idea a bit about who you are and what concerns you in life. Do you feel strongly about nothing? Isn't getting ideas for "things important to you" kind of defeating the purpose? For instance, if I were to write such an essay, I would probably write about problems with gender roles, materialism, and social disconnection in America, because these things concern me and are poignant to me. Mabye if you focus on thinking about the sorts of things you personally care about, it will be easier to come up with something, instead of trying to come up with a "good topic" or one you imagine the recipient wants to see.

I think it's quite classy to get petulant or possessive on behalf of a friend, however. ;) I do have a comment on the Goblet of Fire movie. I enjoyed it overall, knowing it was going to be savagely pared down from the book by necessity. One thing that did catch my attention was the way several sequences were edited, it was confusing to figure out just what was supposed to have happened. I had read the book, but not recently. One scene that I recall of this sort was where Fleur is attacked underwater by a merperson who rushes at her. It cuts to a split-second scene of her recoiling in some fashion, and suddenly you hear the announcer up above saying she is out of the competition. I could not tell for sure what was supposed to have actually happened to her—she was hurt, she lost her air bubble, or what? I don't remember from the book, nor should I have to. The editing seemed a bit abrupt and hurried in this fashion in a few places, as if they were trying to cut every last second possible out of the final edit. It's a minor complaint, but there is no excuse for bad editing that results in scenes that fail to communicate the information the movie is supposed to be giving the viewer.

The grammar police are on their toes tonight. That's what I get for carelessly failing to employ the proper and preferable option-shift-dash em-dash, and I'm not sure why I did—maybe a moment of haste or distraction whilst typing. I must have missed where Alorael mentioned it, but even so, if I were him, I'd be at least a little annoyed or disappointed someone had hijacked something I had made my own. I'd guess he's got too much class to bother getting possessive or petulant about it. I do think it's better to come up with your own creative something special apart from occasions of imitation inspired by homage or parody. —Synergy, who here properly emloys an em-dash, and thinks this will be the last time he pokes a little fun at Alorael's telltale ™. -------------------- A4 Items List A4 Singleton G4 Items List G4 Forging List G4 Insidious Infiltrator NR Items List Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

It's always good to hear from you, Kel, when we hit the ol' Greek of the New Testament. Interesting possibilities the one word alone presents. Some versions translate it as "signified" in English, which means what I was stating, "put into signs" or "communicated by signs." The reason I would readily see it this way is that so much of the vision is clearly not literal to begin with, the language of prophecy all through the Bible is in signs and symbols, and Jesus also spoke continually in allegory/story/symbol to present spiritual ideas in ways people could get the point. Even though I do believe there is spiritual truth to be found in scriptures, I don't fear any literal end to the physical planet, especially with so much other unfulfilled prophecy about the destiny of humankind. I find it quite likely there is life (intelligent and otherwise) and all kinds of strange and wonderful things out there in the vast universe. I find it quite unikely that any of them has ever found or visited planet earth, and therefore find the UFO/alien visitation conspiracy theories rather laughable and wishful thinking at best. Similarly to what Alo was just pointing toward, the odds of any one intelligent species finding and being able to travel to or communicate with another are, um, astronomical.

Moreover, if you take the first verse of the Revelation seriously, which says the vision is "put into signs", then it is not the literal physical heaven or literal physical earth the prophecy is discussing. Prophetic symbology speaks to three realms of heaven, earth, and sea as a microcosm inside a man too. But heavens in general are the realm of rulership, and the earth is what is ruled. The prophecy can be seen to be talking about the old rulership over man and the old man himself is recreated anew. -------------------- A4 Items List A4 Singleton G4 Items List G4 Forging List G4 Insidious Infiltrator NR Items List Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

quote:Wow, I missed this bow, probably because I didn't bother to bump up Nature Lore to get the last cache or two at the end. I know that Putrifying Gauntlets (5000g) are in one high level cache also nearby the final fortress. This bow is the most powerful in the game, and makes a total of five special bows in the game that I know of. I have been listing item locations in my latest game. Not all items are unique, as there are several which exist in quantities of two or three, but they are rare and have special properties in general. My list is not complete, since I have not remembered to list all items received through quests, or some which I might have quickly sold before listing. Some also I might not have access to because my singlteon cannot open caches or dispel barriers. Here is what I have so far: Item Locations Girdle of Strength - reward for mine quest - Grindstone Ratskin Shawl - Swampwalker Hurkin - SE of Formello Swampwalker Leather - lizard pit - SE of Formello Ruby Breastplate - Giscard’ s house, upstairs - SW of Formello Armor Ring - Testing Shade (Test #2) - N of Formello [ Wednesday, January 04, 2006 08:19: Message edited by: Synergy ] -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |
