How good is recuperation? I am too lazy to test it much... I just beat E2 and I'm planning to make a 2 character human party for E3 with lots of advantages. not sure if recuperation is useful though. also someone mentioned highly alert preventing you from being slowed or something like that? is that true?

It definitely protects against Sleep and probably Paralysis, which is good to have in a 2PC party (although moreso for a singleton). I would personally go for Recuperation, as the XP penalty never means much for me anyway. -------------------- "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!

I always do recuperation on all my PCs. The XP penalty doesn't make too much of a difference, but having your health come back 15x faster makes dungeon crawling much nicer. -------------------- Take the Personality Test!

Toughness reduces all damage done to your characters by 1 point. Yep, that's all it does. Don't bother with it. Not sure how much Magically Apt does. Can't imagine it's good enough to justify the cost. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Highly Alert makes you completely immune to sleep. Recuperation give you a MASSIVE boost to hp regeneration. I'd say Alex's comment on it being 15x faster than normal sounds about right. Posts: 13 | Registered: Thursday, August 25 2005 07:00 |

Try using the Wait 100 Moves command in a town. Without Recuperation you'll gain the princely sum of 2 HP. With Recuperation you'll gain 20 HP or so. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Yeah, it definitely is a good deal if you want advantage all the way. Injured and move 2 or 3 moves and you might just gain some health :) You'll eventually get level 50 anyways, why not take the long way and become stronger in the end? -------------------- You can take my Windows XP when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Recuperation is particularly good for walking through swamps. With it, it's fairly difficult to die of poison. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |
