Hi guys, I know this is a stupid question but I have just bought an xbox 360, and am trying to play ego draconis on it. However I started the game on the pc, but as it was so unstable on my pc, and I was buying the xbox anyway, I started it on that. I cannot find any way to equip both a sword and a bow. The game only lets me use the sword. I have tried every button and combination of them but still can't equip a bow, at least it says its equipped but I can't use it. I am still in the village and I know I will need a bow to make it to Lovis tower, but how do you change from sword to bow?
Sorry if this is longwinded, but please can someone help.
Many thanks.

If you go to your Inventory in the game and go to the page where you can put armor and weapons in empty slots like leggings, gauntlets, brancelet, rings, helmet, cuirass, ... and also maximum 2 melee weapons (or 1 melee weapon and 1 shield!) and 1 ranged (bow) weapon too.
1) So, first put at least (1 or 2 melee weapons +) a bow into the slot(s)
2) second: close your inventory and "pause" the game. Now you have access to the Quick slots and put your (for example) Bow to one of the quick slots.
3) press the correspondenting quick slot Button to draw your Bow (or use a potion, ...)

Attention:
IF you have only bows that required a higher rang of Level than your current hero has, you simply CAN'T equip it (and of course can't use it too!) wink

Hope this can help you?

PS :normally, if you've trained in the Goblin Arena in Farglow a melee OR ranged weapon automatically go to one of your quick slots so you can simply use that weapon by pressing the correspondenting button.

Thank you so much for your help, sorry to be so thick, but I am finding the xbox controller much harder than the keyboard and mouse I have played for so long. However I shall persevere as the graphics are so much better on the xbox, and anyway I have bought the damn thing now!!!!!
Thanks again.

After a while you will learn to handle the gamepad of the Xbox and then you can played relaxed in a sofa or so wink
