Melmoth Apprentice Member # 6978	written Saturday, April 1 2006 19:22 Profile #0 I am playing the Demo but, can't go anywhere because most of the doors are locked. I tryed the kill the undead quest I got from the Job Board but, the undead is behind a locked door same with the Nephilim quest. I got the key to the first door from the good Nephilim leader but, the door upstairs is locked. I am sick of killing rats and goblins is there anything else I can do in the Demo? I am only 2nd level yet there seems to be very little left to do? I could make 1 character dump all their points into Tool Use but some locks require Tool Use 8 and that costs a lot of points. Any way to Bash doors or find Unlock Spell in the Demo? Posts: 8 | Registered: Thursday, March 30 2006 08:00

It is possible to travel to him directly, but the pass is guarded by a few archers. -------------------- Lt. Sullust Cogito Ergo Sum Polaris Posts: 2462 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00

Dikiyoba recommends taking the archers out one at a time. Dikiyoba does not recommend charging forward mindlessly. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00

Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Sunday, April 2 2006 04:13 Profile #5 You will have to go back later to get through the difficulty 8 door to the undead. Start with what you can reach from the surface and use the skill points from going up a level for a spellcaster with mage spells. I started out with no tool use and found that you still can do enough, but it helps to have initially at least tool use 5. You don't need more than 8 to finish the demo.

Darkdread Shock Trooper Member # 3716	written Sunday, April 2 2006 12:57 Profile #6 Hi, I don't want to open a new thread just for one question, so here I go: a very simple question, actually, How can you give limited items to the other members in your party? like my warrior has 6 healing potions and I want to give 2 to the mage but I don't know how, I click on it and all 6 six are moved :-( I would appreciate any help, or maybe it's not an option? I remember in exile they asked you how many items you wanted to move... -------------------- "Inspiration comes from hard work" -Charles Baudelaire.

Dikiyoba Councilor Member # 6600	written Sunday, April 2 2006 13:27 Profile Homepage #7 Yes, it's possible. Hold down the shift key and click on the items. Then you'll be asked how many you want to move. Dikiyoba. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00

Louist Apprentice Member # 6983	written Sunday, April 2 2006 17:22 Profile #11 I can understand your frustration. However there is still a fair bit of the demo to go through. As others said, attack the nephies from the front gate, and you will be able to gain access to much more to kill and explore. You're not even half way through the demo yet. At level 2, you have a good 8-9 levels to go, easy. While you do not need tool use to complete the game, you will miss out on a LOT of content. I know Jeff has placed an unlocking spell in previous games, but I'm not sure if he has in A4. As you are only level 2, I'd suggest restarting with a rogue or rebel with a high tool use in the party. Kepp in mind, though, that even with as much tool use as you can get, you will often have to wait a level or two before you can get the doors you find open. Just try to keep a mental note of the chests, doors, and traps you could not bypass, then return to them later. Posts: 11 | Registered: Sunday, April 2 2006 08:00
radix malorum est cupiditas Lifecrafter Member # 6403	written Sunday, April 2 2006 19:40 Profile #12 You will need 15 tool use to pass the worst traps in the game. That gets reduced to 12 points to put into it, because there are gloves that give +2 and a necklace that gives +1. If you want you can wait until you find a tool use trainer, although this is highly discouraged. Tool use and the unlock dors spell stack. If you have all your tool use on a non-mage, you will not be able to open many doors in the game. -------------------- ??? ?????? ???? ????? Posts: 883 | Registered: Wednesday, October 19 2005 07:00
