I'm not going to tell you what it is, although you can find out on your own if you look really hard through old archives from other forums.

Pylons in Avernum 4
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Saturday, February 4 2006 04:41 Profile Homepage #16 quote: Originally written by Is the Internet a fungus?: I took your OCD to mean that you obsessively and compulsively had your party stand just out of range and very, very slowly picked off each pylon. Doing it with one victim is much easier. I actually killed many of the pylons west of Fort Remote with everyone out of range, doing enough damage to beat the pylons' regeneration. Then I realised that using missiles and a few healing spells on the fighter meant less running back to recharge SP than pummeling it with attack spells did. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Quintessence in Blades of Exile
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Saturday, February 4 2006 04:33 Profile Homepage #1 quote: Originally written by WonkoTheSane: Okay, I'm in the lich's tower, in the Mountains of Faith section. I searched every square for a secret passage, and I'm losing essence fast. I still don't have the "necessary magic" to go into the other sections. What do I do? Follow the path until you can go no further, then turn back and start searching for secret passages again. quote: Also, where can I recharge essence? Various places. Don't worry; once you're past Bully Joel's quest (the one you're doing right now), there isn't anywhere that you're likely to run out of essence (except maybe the beholder at the very end, and that's completely optional). If you're desperately low on essence, once you find Joel's essence, you can drink it yourself to get a big recharge. Warning: this has consequences, both short-term and long-term.

Sudden Ending in Avernum 4
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Friday, February 3 2006 18:39 Profile Homepage #25 quote: I did think like Jeff's wife and others that the end of G3 was too difficult to really enjoy. But the two climactic fights of A4 were perfectly balanced. Perhaps its inherent in the difference between the turn-based games and the real time of the Genforge series. Er, probably not. Geneforge's combat is just as turn-based as Avernum's is, so that shouldn't make any difference.

Magus of Cattalon bugs in Blades of Avernum
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Friday, February 3 2006 18:34 Profile Homepage #13 quote: Originally written by Smoo: Yeah, what he said. Anna, you're killing monsters half your level so you're not supposed to get any experience out of them, except possibly from the animated armor. As for the you gain xx experience points bug: I can't see a thing I can do about that one. Well, you could give out all scripted XP awards at a variable level equal to the party's average experience level instead of at a fixed level. That way, the amount of experience actually awarded will always be pretty close to the amount the status window message says has been awarded. On the other hand, you may not necessarily want a level 214 party to gain experience from going through your scenario. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

It's therefore likely that Jeff won't update them at all. Updating the old pre-Carbon games will likely be a fair bit of work, though. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

Look at the box of scrolls in that room again, and you'll be given the option to translate them. After you've translated them, go back and talk to Lark again. quote: I have another quest that I have not solved "Liberate Spire", I have not understood what I have to do :confused: As the quest description says, talk to Commander Elphaba in Fort Saffron after you've killed the leader of the group occupying Spire Fort. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Tuesday, January 31 2006 03:17 Profile Homepage #65 Just because he didn't run over my cat with a car doesn't mean he didn't own a car. :P On the other hand, random acts of vandalism aren't really a constructive solution. I don't live there any more, so I'm just pleased that he won't be causing problems in future. (As it happens, I did lose another cat to a car once, but that was an accident -- according to the driver, the cat was being chased by a dog and ran out into the road.) By the way, I'll be gone again for a few days starting tomorrow. I should be back by Saturday.

E3: Getting Sick in The Exile Trilogy
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Monday, January 30 2006 20:10 Profile Homepage #1 No, the Tower of Magi incident isn't until much later. The problem you're having is that you're carrying an item that's making you sick. It's probably a Uranium Bar; if you have any unidentified metal bars in your inventory, dump them. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Dexterity vs. Missile Weapons in Geneforge Series
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Monday, January 30 2006 15:04 Profile Homepage #8 If he's asking for basic gameplay advice, I doubt he's playing on Torment. Just because a strategy doesn't work so well on Torment, doesn't mean it's useless -- if he wants to play as a Shaper with missile weapons, he can. Sometimes it's fun to play an unusual character.

Got any A3 or A2 Trainers? in The Avernum Trilogy

Member # 869	written Monday, January 30 2006 15:00 Profile Homepage #6 Unless a third-party character editor was actually made by modifying SW's original editor, it's perfectly legal. There's no law against making your own program which serves the same function as an existing copyrighted program.
