Clash of the Titan in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Wednesday, January 24 2007 19:41 Profile #3 It helps to have friends. Fire creations are the easiest to make since you can use equipment -volcanic fetish, shaper robe, shapemaster boots, fireweaver cloak- to make anything without needing points for shaping skills. A pair of drakons do nice damage to all forms and especially to the second one. I never had Thuryl's problem with madness gems not working to charm some of the summoned creations of the second and third form. As a bonus it will slow the Titan. Repeat essence shackles at least every other round. Concentrate on damaging the Titan if solo and if you have friends then concentrate on keeping them healed and hasted. I've had lifecrafters destroyed because I attacked and got fried because the AI then flags me as a target. The exploding kyshaaks do provide nice collateral damage but you have to get them in the first round before they move. My trouble was surviving the summoned creations of the third form after I killed the Titan. It helps to charm at least one of them so they fight amongst themselves.

xp penalty in Avernum 4
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Tuesday, January 23 2007 21:32 Profile #4 I'm sure we had this discussion before at least twice. Now who are you going to believe, the guy that made the game or Slarty? Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
Endeavor and Privacy in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Tuesday, January 23 2007 19:56 Profile #29 There will always be something that someone posts here that they wish there was no record of or could be searched for easily. After all Aran someday you will have a job where your boss will be interested in that post about you checking out the board while you are at work. More employers are using the Internet to get additional information about possible employees. It is getting harder to eliminate all traces of your past life. That's why I kept my real name off the board from the start so this place doesn't show up when you google me. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
Turabi Gate/Master Drex's Letter Anomaly in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Tuesday, January 23 2007 19:23 Profile #0 I accidently forgot to get credit for the Pikkary Bandits from Master Drex when I met Trint in Turabi Gate. Wondering why I was missing the dialog option, I checked and found I hadn't cleared the quest. So off to Dillame to get my reward and next quest. Then I found that I had the dialog option from Drex for finishing the letter quest before leaving Dillame and got my reward. I didn't need to go back to Turabi Gate to turn in the letter, but I did anyway. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
A New Series in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Tuesday, January 23 2007 19:19 Profile #15 Jeff could do a more Nethergate style game where you can run a character or party through the game working for opposing sides. Then you get to see each view point and a differing skill set. One case would be Arthurian legends where you could be a loyal supporter of Arthur or working for Modred to overthrow the regime. Plenty of opportunities for quests and a somewhat familiar world with swords and magic. It would save on making new graphics since most of the Geneforge ones could be used with guardians for knights, shapers for mages, and serviles for peasants.

The Halo Suit of the Modern World - Fraud? in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Monday, January 22 2007 19:03 Profile #23 quote: Originally written by Cirion Actaeon: The real question is when it will be made available to the public. Even if its black market, a $2000 suit of armor would open to a large market. No need to carry a pistol in your purse if you can wear a military grade suit around, even if it only protects against small arms. About 5 years ago some robbers were being shot at by police who watched their bullets have no effect because of kevlar body armor. Eventually some police officers when into a gun shop and got some high powered rifles to even up the odds. They were finally able to wound the robbers. It was on television at the time and I can see a huge demand among the crinimal element to protect themselves as they rob us. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
Avernum games: slowly in 10.4.8? in Tech Support
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Monday, January 22 2007 03:57 Profile #14 Jeff updated Avernum 1 and 2 to OS X last year. He updated Avernum 4 recently to Intel Macs and is working on Blades of Avernum. I guess all the games will have new versions out over the next year except for the Exile games.

The Adventures of Onan the Barbarian in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Monday, January 22 2007 03:47 Profile #41 Congratulations on winning. I didn't think that Matala was possible. I was hoping that you would answer the question if it was possible to finish the game with over 1000 health, but you didn't need it. For the next game play it with one hand tied behind your back and blindfolded. Just kidding. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
A Statistically Happy New Year! in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 22:47 Profile #88 I think there was a message about some of the numbers getting reused and whether the admins cleaned them out before someone else got a used member number. After all you don't know where some of them have been. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
The Adventures of Onan the Barbarian in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 22:39 Profile #39 I always found that madness gems or mass madness works wonders in the Titan and Southern Sentinel encounters. Turn his summoned creatures into your allies for a few rounds and they turn on each other. They usually ignore you while they fight amongst themselves. It's a bit less of an engine abuse. Still slogging through Illya. That lower endurance slows things down, but I can kill most things with higher strength. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
Registration... in The Exile Trilogy
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 22:30 Profile #10 Until A4 there weren't any great area effect spells in Avernum. I still think the cloud of blades spell isn't that great and you have to target it on something. Exile allowed for area effect spells to go after invisible creatures by just targeting a spot. There are some extra places in Avernum games that aren't in the Exile series. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00

The Halo Suit of the Modern World - Fraud? in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 17:57 Profile #3 It still leaves major joints exposed so explosive damage will result in major injuries there. Still it's probably better than what they are using now. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
The Chosen Ending - Geneforge 5 in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 17:51 Profile #8 I'd like to see a different part of the war. Maybe the Shaper infiltration to recapture the Ashen Islands by going after the Rebellion leaders or Rebels going after the Shaper Council. You work your way up gathering information on the route to you goal. I don't want to see the stalemate a few years later. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
The Adventures of Onan the Barbarian in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 17:46 Profile #36 I'm wondering if for Matala you could use the slow from your version of the Frozen blade to keep the golem in the starting area. Since moving Matala out of the rotgroth summoning area is the hardest part of a single character game. Repeated essence shackles sometimes works for a lifecrafter to prolong the first part. I know sometimes the drakon never gets revived to attack you. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00

Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, January 21 2007 17:37 Profile #1 Once you get the key from Solberg you should be able to get past that obstacle and enter the darken maze to get to the demon. Check special items to be sure that you have the key and also that you did the dialog option to ask for the key from Solberg. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
wikipedia forever? in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 16:17 Profile #13 Anything on the Internet is only as good as the person who posted it. Wikipedia has the advantage that you can quickly find information and then figure out whether it is reliable. Peer review material is supposed to be reliable if the reviewers know what they are reading. I've seen arguements both ways with material that was published that shouldn't have been and some that was rejected and later published when new information came out showing the research was correct.

When I was your age, school was 25 miles away! Uphill both ways! in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 16:09 Profile #18 I'm 45 and old enough to remember when they only place to play computer games was on a mainframe computer. Oh, and the games were text only. You kids have it so easy. No more having to hide from university computer admins when playing games. Swapping out game and data floppy disks while playing (only 360 kB). 16 color graphics and you better like it. If you want an idea of what it was like go download Adventure.

Keeping items in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 16:01 Profile #23 Most of the anvil ingredients to improve items aren't worth it. Save golden crystals and steel spines since they always help. Blessing crystals are okay for the beginning half of the game to increase damage although you could also used a runed ruby or amethyst for fire or acid bonus damage. I usually sell off most of the others since cold isn't that helpful. For heavy spell users save madness gems, rotgroth fangs, and glaahk eyes for mental focus charms. It really depends upon what you use when playing. Most of the time you don't need gemstones since most players don't use icy crystals. If you don't plan to use it later than sell it since you can buy most of them later on in the game. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00

Episode 3 Continued in General
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 07:07 Profile #49 The newbies have to be smart enough to cross the water surrounding the entrance. Although that seems to be going down into the lower forums. The oldies are mostly not inclined to get wet, except for the hard core members that have already got back. Tough it out, You should have volunteered to go after the summoning machine. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
The Adventures of Onan the Barbarian in Geneforge 4: Rebellion
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 07:03 Profile #31 Fort Raevinn is always a pain because if you go outside to chase down the wingbolts, then you get swarmed with no support from within the fort. If you stay back too much, then they run outside and get killed. Matala as a single unsupported character is hard because you get cursed in melee and missle attacks do very little damage. I thought that you would get more parry rather than quick action to reduce damage. Slarty did a parry thread and it seem somewhat useful to reduce damage.

Need help in Avernum 4
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, January 20 2007 06:53 Profile #2 When you first reach the upper city through the smuggler's tunnel, you go along the north edge to another tunnel entrance to go back down. Avoid attacking anyone, especially the shade in the upper city. It's okay to attack some people in the lower city unless they are prisoners. There is a wheel to open a gate in the second tunnel that takes you back to the east side of the river for the return trip if you need it. That one requires a certain combined party strength. The Castle will eventually clear the city gates so you can freely enter the city without being attacked. Posts: 4643 \| Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00
