Contra Infiltrator Member # 5785	written Sunday, July 31 2005 04:44 Profile #2 For an easier gameplay, focus your skillpoints on the area where your character type is Strong. Don't go out on your line to buy up shaping skills if your an Agent, for example. -------------------- "..The seventh wave of Thrall stumbled and climbed over the slippery, piled dead and Mazzarin saw The Watcher with them and at last knew the number of his days."

Zeviz Nuke and Pave Member # 24	written Sunday, July 31 2005 15:31 Profile Homepage #3 The main warning is that there are only 2 sides now. So don't give pro-servile opinions unless you are certain you'll be joining Latalia. Other than that, the game plays the same way as previous Geneforges, so any strategies you had before still apply. PS Don't forget to pick up Alvan and Greta. Their stats can be improved with their skill points alone, without spending your essense, so they are very useful unless you are playing solo. (However, be aware that they have opposite phylosophies and don't get along with each other very well.)

NanaBanana Apprentice Member # 5931	written Sunday, July 31 2005 16:05 Profile #4 You can go "middle of the road" to an extent without totally alienating either side in the beginning. If you become encumbered and need to drop some items, I strongly recommend keeping a journal of where you dropped them. Later, you can move them to a more convenient location to sort through.

The trainee guardian? I've got him. Thanks for the tips though, I'll keep them in mind. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. :ph34r: Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00
Zeviz Nuke and Pave Member # 24	written Sunday, July 31 2005 22:20 Profile Homepage #6 The way I pronounce him, it sounds Alvan. :) And a couple more suggestions: if you are playing as Guardian, be aware that Parry isn't nearly as strong as it used to be. It's still pretty good, but you can't build your character around that single skill. Also, there are some areas to which you'll have to come back later, when you are stronger. For example, advanced tests in the training center are far too tough for you when you just pass basic tests. -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill.

Nikki. Shaper Member # 3442	written Monday, August 1 2005 07:31 Profile Homepage #7 This post contains some minor spoilers... - - - - - - - - - - - As the FAQ states, give Pro-Shaper opinions early in the game. That way you can get lots training early on, like from Diwanyia. You can still do rebellious things though (like handing over the book to Scintle(?) and helping Lankan and the rebels on Harmony Isle). In order to make the strongest creations, you will need to use the cannisters, and keep Kyrhyk and the Drakon in the Breeding Pit alive (his name eludes me). At least until you have been trained by them... That way you can get three pints in Gazer and Rotghroth. You cannot make an Ur-Drakon (which makes sense, since it requires a Geneforge). Oh, and there is a new ability to create items with an enchanted anvil. Read the FAQ for recipes.

Walter Infiltrator Member # 878	written Monday, August 1 2005 13:21 Profile #8 Also keep in mind that alwan will eventually leave you if you play as a rebel, and greta will eventually leave you if you play as loyal (you can only keep them through the end of dhonal's island, but if you either help or kill the rebels on harmony island one of them will leave you at the end of harmony island). -------------------- Warning: Posts may contain misspellinks and typo.s Posts: 409 | Registered: Sunday, March 31 2002 08:00
