Old game, new player

Post by __Demo__ »

Hi there, I just found this game and it is pretty fun to play

Well, it seems that the game has not been updated for years, but surprisingly there are still some players

After some gameplay searching for AC/BC and Crit formula, I have some thoughts about it:

1. I should level up "Increased Fortitude" whenever it is up, and I dont need to increase HP when leveling up
2. Some monsters are immune to crits, is it still worth it to go crit build?
3. Blackwater set seems decent since the misery is unstackable, with Dual Dagger style and proficiency

Actually I wanna play unarmed and unarmoured, while it seems very difficult
But I cannot finish the Charwood quests since their BC is too high

Currently I just farm in the wolves' cave or whatever it called, and I find myself very weak

Demo Lv22
Attack Stats: 201% 21-31
Block Chance: 7%

I do have 2 points on IF at level 5 and 20, 1 on Regen, 1 on MaxAP, and 1 remaining

Those armours lower the attack chance or have some other side effects, FeelsBadMan
Maybe I should keep going on AC/AD build or something?

Thanks!

Good observation :D . It is even worth not taking a skill when you have one available, and waiting until you have gained enough levels to get IF. The most important example of that is to not take a skill at level 4, but to wait until level 5 when you can use the first skill point for IF.

A crit build is not very effective against monsters that are immune to critical hits, but it's devastating against those that are not. My personal preference is to include crits in a build, but not to put too much emphasis on them, but that's just my preference.

Agreed. Not many play with it, but I think they don't realize how good it can be if you base a build around it.

Yeah. I think unarmed and unarmored is very hard. I have not tried it myself, but if the options for a good build seem limited. It's something we will have to look at at some point (but not before the next release ;) )

Hello again and thanks to Zukero and rijackson741

I managed to reach level 40, currently grinding EXP at Blackwater Mountain.

Then I encountered a problem that may happen in almost every RPG game: grinding for extraordinary items.

I do want RoLS but it has only 0.01% drop rate, seems that it would take so much time for RoLS.

When would you guys start grinding RoLS?
And any other good place to level up? Since the fatigue from those Wyrms is so annoying.

Current status:
Demo Lv40
HP / AP [93/12]
Attack Stats [275% 32-38]
Block Chance [34%]

Looks like 275% AC doesn't enough tho.

You could grind for it at any time. At level 40 killing the monsters will be easy. It's just patience and luck.

I like the upper levels of Charwood mine. You get lots of Reinforced black axes, which sell for a lot of money.

275% AC is fine. 34% BC is very low though, and will leave you very vulnerable.

Hi all you baddies!
Love this game. Takes all my time now. Hehe. Never thought I would like a game like this...then again I remember my older brothers wouldn't let me play Zelda. 😠.

Anyone feel free to in-box. Maybe we can be game buddies. Hehe.💋
