Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Aura of guarding tip in catacombs

this tip should be really helpful if you just started the game... i found it's pretty easy to get an aura of guarding from the "study" on the first level of the catacombs (with 3 bookshelves towards the west (one southwest and 2 northwest) and 3 barrels towards the southeast... there should also be a desk with a diary sitting on it - i THINK this is also where you can summon a skeleton by putting out the 5 candles on the pentagram and lighting them again...)... just keep reloading till you get it... i got an aura of guarding from this place 3 times with 3 seperate characters (after multiple reloads...)...


aura of guarding lvl 1 = a shield which can endure 60 points of physical damage... costs 10 mana and only dissapears if you sleep... very helpful - and will help you survive an in your face attack from the skeleton summoner if you have full hp (although you'll only have a bit of hp left after that... that thing does something like 120 points of damage per hit...)...

good to see a newbie writing something helpful to others. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

All I got was Spell Shield, which protects against magical attacks. I wish I had this Aura of Guarding you speak of. Next game when I play the Wizard through I'll have your words in my head. Thanks for the tip off. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

thats ALL u got??? I didn't get anything at all! i don't care though, since I did beat the game.
