If so, how? and is there anything back there worth the trip? Also, if you kill the God of the Dead, does that haunt you later in the game? Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00

Does he come back? Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00
Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Saturday, June 16 2007 15:15 Profile #3 The only place I've seen a dagger of the sun is below the Temple of Brigante when you kill the high druid. In Annwn, you can't even get into combat range as a Roman and I doubt the Celts are allowed to attack him without getting killed. Either way there shouldn't be any consequences for killing Bel.

playongrass Apprentice Member # 5505	written Sunday, June 17 2007 01:30 Profile Homepage #4 Cool, as a Celt, I buffed up, speed up and blessed up my fighters then went into combat mode and attacked Bel. He died, and I got those goodies. So it is possible to kill him. Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00

It seems very difficult to kill Bel without cheating. -------------------- "The mouth is like the city gate.

playongrass Apprentice Member # 5505	written Sunday, June 17 2007 03:39 Profile Homepage #6 Okay, to be totally honest, a bit... But it was when I started, bumped up strength of one of the fighters to 8 to open up doors... So yes, I did, but not outrageously... Don't hate me cause I'm a cheater :rolleyes: [ Sunday, June 17, 2007 03:41: Message edited by: playongrass ] Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00

playongrass Apprentice Member # 5505	written Sunday, June 17 2007 03:49 Profile Homepage #8 or if the spell points get a little low... or there is a magic item I just can't seem to find... or I need some gold for that extra spell... or just edit the spells... or if my fighter gets poisoned, diseased, or feels drowsy... Basically, I don't play the game, I just edit... Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00
Fractal Warrior Member # 8872	written Sunday, June 17 2007 07:31 Profile #9 When I register demos, I usually make a new party and improve its stats a little if it's my first time through the game and then I replay hard-core style. For my singletons, I give them unlimited gold, even. You're still playing, just tweaking-style to help you out as you go along. There's nothing wrong with cheating. It can lead to a very relaxing but still interesing game. And that's what games are all about: relaxation. It doesn't matter how you achieve your relaxation. -------------------- "The mouth is like the city gate.

Otherwise I think you're stuck there and need to use the editot to leave. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00

Sorry for the triple post, I did it for dramatic effect but understand that it can be super annoying... bad zander, bad zander...

I Am Damo Suzuki Warrior Member # 4204	written Tuesday, June 19 2007 10:52 Profile #12 I killed Bel using a Celt party on easy without any assistance from the editor. I ended up reloading after, as it sort of ruined the roleplaying experience to have killed the god of death. I'd be curious to know if there are any consequences later on. -------------------- What really went on there, we only have this excerpt... Posts: 68 | Registered: Sunday, April 4 2004 08:00
playongrass Apprentice Member # 5505	written Tuesday, June 19 2007 12:53 Profile Homepage #13 I'm not finished yet, but in the last area, so Randomizer was correct, you just have to get permission to leave before toasting him... If there are any problems later on I'll be sure to update this posting... Posts: 34 | Registered: Tuesday, February 15 2005 08:00
