Wound is great at any level, since it deals unblockable damage (great for Rakshasi and all-immune creatures). -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Experiences from beta-testing the three of them: GF1 started out okay, but I really wanted to find out what went on with the Sholai, the spirits, and the Geneforge. GF2 started out great. I even called it the best spidweb game since BoE. But as it went on, it got slower and slower, and I didn't want to replay it to see the other endings - I just wanted to kill Barzahl and the Takers and Awakened. But I still managed to slug through them. GF3 started out fine, somewhere between the other two. But at Gull Island, it just sunk like a stone. Things were barely explained, high-leveled monsters and tons of serviles were thrown at us, and we were expected to get through it all to see the Geneforge and mighty Drakons. I could barely finish GF3 once, let alone a second time. And yet, I could easily bring four or five parties up to the end of Dhonal Isle. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Brett, did you revert it to a previous version before you edited it? I had already added the Archive and Khoth's Graphics Archive, but now one is misnamed, and one is gone. EDIT: Brett, I've updated the header to fix the links section.

No, the call move_to_loc_x_y doesn't return any value, and I'm not sure that it would create the desired effect anyway even if it did. EDIT: You may want to use the call approach_waypoint EDIT 2: Thuryl posted as I was ... at least we said the same thing. You may want to pick several spaces for the summoned monster to go (memory cells?) and place runes there or something. Then you can randomly place s/he on one spot. Another answer is just to not have any unreachable ledges around the summoner.

Jeff did a pretty massive overhaul to shaping skill costs, effects, etc. towards the end of the GF2 beta, and it's possible that he overlooked some things. Or that he wanted it this way because he knew that shapers could be the most powerful by far, and he wanted to even it out. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
