Squiggus Apprentice Member # 5649	written Thursday, March 31 2005 00:44 Profile #0 Maybe I'm missing something really obvious, but I've had the hardest time reaching Dhonal's Keep. I'm playing one of the wimpiest sorts of characters - an agent specializing in mechanics and leadership. You see, I think combat is totally boring and I like to avoid or minimize it whenever I can. But unlike in GF1 and especially GF2, I'm finding the limited combat route to be much more difficult in GF3. I'm kind of having difficulties reaching Dhonal's Keep from Fort Wilton. Even playing on Easy mode - and it kills me to admit to playing on Easy on a board - I keep getting my arse kicked on the way there. Maybe the answer to this is in the hint book, which I've ordered but haven't received yet. Can anyone give me advice? Posts: 9 | Registered: Thursday, March 31 2005 08:00

Squiggus Apprentice Member # 5649	written Thursday, March 31 2005 05:56 Profile #2 Well I eventually made it by going through Spharon's Lands. I think if I had higher leadership I could have convinced the serviles to let me pass by, but as it was, they weren't too difficult to beat. I thought about trying the Purification Plant, but I absolutely loathe those areas with poison in the air, it's so easy to die and just not very fun at all.

This prevents you from dying quickly and you can easily monitor you health. The purification plant is a relatively easy toxic zone. It is easy to shut down.

My noncombatant agent just went up the same way as my other characters, as directly north as possible without going into the purification plant. -------------------- Barcoorah: I even did it to a big dorset ram.
