G3 Help For TJC Shaper in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Monday, April 2 2007 11:50 Profile #16 Yes, it's nice that they blow themselves up in a nice neat chain like that, especially because you can (potentially) get a lot of experience for very little effort. As for getting hurt or killed a lot setting off the explosion chains, you just need to excercise a bit more caution, and you'll usually be fine. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Shayder mayor in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Thursday, March 29 2007 10:50 Profile #1 First, you won't find him because he's a she. Second, the mayor should be in her office (just north of the job dispatcher). If the town is starting to disintegrate, she may be elsewhere in Shayder. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

G3 Help For TJC Shaper in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Thursday, March 29 2007 05:03 Profile #14 I forgot about exploding roamers. And you're right, they're best killed from a distance, unless you like to take unnecessary damage. Here's another (admittedly slightly dangerous) trick: Make them explode in a chain reaction. Get some of them to bunch together, move out of explosive range, and shoot. Every exploding roamer in the blast radius will also explode, which in turn cause any others within range of those explosions to blow up as well. Using this method, I've been known to kill as many as 10 to 15 with a single shot. The only downside of this is that you can get surrounded.

Since I normally play as a Shaper, this works best for me, especially when I have to do a lot of melee.

Artifact List? Also, Shaped Boots?? in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, March 27 2007 11:58 Profile #8 quote: Originally written by Eugi: Finally, could someone please chime in and explain the statistics that display whenever someone misses a hit? Meaning the "Missed: (##%)" thing. Thanks! Simple. It's the percent chance you have of hitting something--or vice versa, depending on who's doing the hitting. So if your Battle Alpha punches a Glaahk and misses, you'd get a message like "Missed (80%)." Therefore your creation's chance of hitting the Glaahk would be 80%.

A3 Trog Castle in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Monday, March 26 2007 08:28 Profile #1 The walkthrough, wherever you got it from, is wrong. You can't fake your way into the Troglo Castle. You need to get permission from the mayor of Sharimik to take a scroll to the castle. In order to get this permission, you must first 1) give the jobs dispatcher a bribe, and 2) destroy an evil altar in a troglo temple west of Sharimik. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Saturday, March 24 2007 13:41 Profile #3 No matter my character class, I find mechanics to be quite useful, especially against those mines you mentioned; a level or two of Unlock wouldn't hurt either, to help with doors and such. As for health, it's always a good idea to have a little more than you think you'll need, for surviving both melee and mines. I also recommend you get the Augmentation and Essence Shield/Armor spells, which will definitely help you live longer.

A3 reloading during a fight in The Avernum Trilogy

It's probably a bug. —Alorael, who can't imagine that it's an old copy problem. Even the oldest version of A3 should have the same loading capabilities as A1 and A2. Agreed. I've been able to reload any game during a fight, be it an Exile, Avernum, or Geneforge game, or even Nethergate. Ctrl-O is the correct shortcut for loading a game the PC, so it should work; if not, try hitting Esc and clicking "Load Saved Game." -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, March 14 2007 05:27 Profile #14 quote: Originally written by Garaged: —Alorael, who wonders why Erika apparently gave up on breaking her curse. As the most powerful mage in the world, apparently, she really should have been able to work out a way to return to the surface. Remember, it took several powerful mages to put that curse on her in the first place, so she might have needed some equally powerful mages to remove it (maybe she couldn't do anything herself?). Even in A3, there were more stronger spellcasters above the surface than below, so maybe she didn't have the necessary resources. What about the Vahnatai? (I just know someone's going to ask me this.) Maybe they were either too preoccupied or indifferent to be much help. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

What happened to the mayor? in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Monday, March 12 2007 10:35 Profile #8 I find A3 fairly easy simply because I've done nearly everything already in E3. (warning: off topic) A3 isn't bad, but if you want a truly easy RPG, play "Adventure" for the Atari 2600 (remember those?). Beaten it in 5-10 minutes.

Rentar-Ihrno in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Sunday, March 11 2007 14:08 Profile #9 quote: Originally written by Randomizer: Erika is cursed to die if she ever sees the light of day. Actually, she dies if the light of day touches her skin. In one of the games, she mentions teleporting books (among other things) from the surface. Unless she teleports things blindly, this can't be done without scrying first, which would've caused her to see the light of day; therefore, if merely seeing the light of day were fatal to her, then scrying the surface would've killed her. quote: I wonder if she ever went top side during the night? In theory, she probably could've done it, but only on moonless nights, because moonlight is nothing more than reflected sunlight. quote: Originally written by Small Fry: rentars magic is more powerfull than erika's No, the opposite is true. Rentar was losing the duel with Erika--quite badly, as I recall--and only won because she caught Erika by surprise. Otherwise, Erika would've decimated her.
