You'll know why this is important...later...
Compass going crazy: There are areas you step on that spin the entire party in a different direction. Just face a direction you want to go and stick with it. Example: You are heading north, according to the compass. One step forward, now you are facing west. Turn back north and proceed. Very slow process, but if you consider this and the fireballs, maybe it's time to do some detailed mapping?
The thief (that annoying, giggling cartoon character): Remember when I said slime monster was the second most poorly drawn game enemy? Well, this dude it the first. It looks like a running raisin or small hunk of poo, if I remember correctly. The trick is to empty your hands and kill it with spells. I don't remember if it has a limit to the number of items it can carry/steal. In some areas, you will be able to trap it in a dead end. At that point, I would just beat it to death with punches and kicks instead of wasting spell mana. Don't get me wrong, it's clever in its intention. Steal your stuff, you give chase to get your stuff and end up getting lost in the process.
I think that covers it all. Nice to see you have opened your own channel.  |
Dear Ohne Mitleid,
I am very humble man. Really.
I follow the Bible rule: If one your cheek is beaten, offer another also.
Simply I wanna play game here in AB, not alone in my garden as Shao-Lin monk. Well respected boss of AB Paco the Great allows me to play another games in one thread: Fallout 1 and FO2. I am preparing for FO3.
Well, to be fair I have fails also:
First is Ultima 8 Pagan. I am very tenacious player and started the game 7 times. And every time -failed?? Very strange: I reached Pit of Dead and tuto la finito.
Second my fail was saga of Twinsen Odyssey. Not my fail. So stupid save system I never seen in my gamer life. I give up after 2 days.
OK. All your kind and prompt directions are very carefully written then printed for future reference.
Especially is nice advise for nasty thief. So these ones were reason to disappear my armor and weapons from hands..I killed 2 of them but I think they have regeneration somewhere.
The situation:
After I was crying all the day, fallen in the floor I stand up and said:
"Cheer up, the brave. Stand up and fight."
The last 4 word are from Book of the books when God Krishna helped the young King before forth coming battle.
Maybe my God helped me but I did little progress:
-I found the both keys required - Solid and Skeleton ones.
- I found the good weapons Mace of Order, Staff of Manar and Ful bombs.
- I lured around thief, Mummies, Ghosts and opened door with above key. Then with my fireballs crashed 10-12 Skeletons and reached Central Stairway which directly connects level 7 to level 13.
Anyway I am unable to find down-stair to level 9 ?
Well, even the brave is tired. Moreover in small, sunny and lovely Bulgaria ( goto European map, find Black Sea and voila -west of Sea is Bulgaria ) is time to go bed.
