Because all my wepons are pretty weak. I am looking for a strong wepon, but with low requirements....if such a thing exists.....


Oh and what class do you recommend, warrior, wizard, or rouge?



Thanks in advance

If memory serves, I don't think there is a really great weapon with low requirements.

And as for the best class I like to mix up the lot; Wizard, Warrior, and Rogue.
I usually grab more Wizard at the game start and then I incorporate Warrior and Rogue skills.
By the game end I have Mostly Warrior, then Wizard, and then Rogue.
It all depends really on what you like to play and your play style.

Good Luck to you.

I decided I am going to make a wizard named Tellah <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> . Can you recommend any places to get some magic potions so I don't run out of mana when I need it? And what spells do you recommend to build up? Also, is it hard to convert your wizard-based character into a warrior-based later in the game?

Also, I heard good things about rouges, but they don't look all that good. Can you give me any info on them?

Just buy them from the potions dealer, walker, in the merchants area.

Get meteorstrike, hell spikes, and elemental shower when you can. Frost is pretty good too, and deadly gift ( rouge ).

For moving in? Just upgrade your strength and agility so you can use the warrior's swords and armour.

What about the rouges?

I was wondering if the rouges have strong attack/abilities. And what their weaknesses are.

strong attack?


Assassins kiss CAN be good, deadly gift is VERY good. Their weekness is that if you do them strict rouges you cannot have such good swords and armour. But if you get lots of strength and agility they are great. Add in the few magical spells, and you're set. I like a rouge/mage set, with a mixture of spells/skills from both, with adding in strength and agility for good swords weapons.

You can trade items for goods when you don’t have enough gold.
The more Potions you buy in Aleroth the more they carry when they replenish their stock.
Highlight to reveal <span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'>
I would seriously advise getting one Feat of Alchemy so you can mix Mana Potions with Heal Potions by dragging and dropping them on top of each other one by one. Do this only with Equal size bottles.
When mixed you get a Restoration Potion.
One Restoration Potion is TONS better than a single Mana or a single Heal Potion.

Well I have made a Rouge and I have to say, I love it. His attacks hit almost every time. And when he lvl. up, I gave him meteor strike and now he can pwn anyone. Sure I may have to use hit and run tactics, but I think it's kinda fun that way <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Oh and plus I gave him a cool name. I called him "Dart". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />


P.S. , What lvl can I start making traps? lvl 5?

Level 3 or 4 actually I think. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

You chose similer to what I do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Meteorstrike will pwn everyone.

The reciepe on how to kill ANYTHING as a mage (cost a bit of mana though, so only use it when you have problems):

First, curse them (survivors curse, so the can't resist it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />). When you've taken their res down enought, life leech them (four or five times should do it). Finnish them off with hellspikes. If you don't whant them to be able to do anything back, push in a freeze before the leeching.

rogues - it's rogues! - rouge is make-up <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

I prefer a warrior with magic skills - sort of battle mage.
Regardless of class you choose, you will always want to use at least some skills from other classes - but then <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> does not restrict you; wonderful game concept! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Wow I just used those Steel Scorpian things, and they are so strong! I only wish I saved them for the last lvl of the catacombs where you kill the necromancer and tons of skeletons appear and try to kill you. If I did that, then I'd be like lvl 10 in the first city <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I always save them for that, I usually only get to level 8 or so though. Some guy got a XP bonus ( hardly EVER happens ), but he got it on the spider, recoketed him up to a level 39 in the first catacomes.

XP bounus? I think I got one from killing a skeleton. It looked like it said XP BOMB or something. But for some reason I got like 1000-10000 XP (barly got a glimps of the number <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohh.gif" alt="" /> )


Also, is there anywhere I can buy a Steel Scorpian?
