Hi guys, Okay I'm not far into the game, but i badly need some advice. I'm not sure where I am so bear with me. I am in act i and have just gone thru a portal to a house where a woman pleading for help was a trick, I am now back in the dungeon and have gone thru another portal, my problem is I have completely run out of potions, health and the white ones and don't know what to do. On one side is a poisoned room I had to reload because I couldn't get out of there, good job I saved just before. On the other side are skeletons and mages and I just keep dying all the time. A little further back I met an imp who had trade but he dissapeared before I had chance to use it. Asside from going back to a save which is about 2 hours (I know, i know, save often) any suggestions. Which is the way out?, past the skellies or thru the poisned room. Boy this games tougher than <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />, but am very happy some of the old music is in this game, cheered me up a bit.

Thanks for reading, sorry it's a long post but you know us girls. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

The best advise I can give, other than reloading previous game, is to go into the poisoned room. After you get thru it you will find more health potions. If you've found a battlefield key, you can transport there and buy potions and sell some of your stuff. It sounds as if you have tried the room and have been unable to find the lever to turn it off. If so,

SPOILER: The lever is in the southwest corner of room. Hope this helps. Alot of times I need a little help myself. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

When you find a battlefield key and click on it this allows you to go to the battlefields whenever you wish - through the secondary skill menu.

The first key is early in the game - a chest near where you started the game, and the key to the chest near the pit you dropped through in the arena to get to the imps.


Reality is for those who cannot cope with fantasy. Fortunately, I can cope quite well.

<span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'> Battlefield keys are these HUGE keys that you will find as you go through the game. I can tell you this: You missed one already. When you've found a Battlefield key, it unlocks a new area that you can teleport to (by clicking on the 2nd hand next to your character). But you have to find the keys in order to teleport directly to them. I can give you a hint as to where the first one is, but I don't want to spoil it for you. Am sending this to you in a PM too so you'll have it and I won't spoil the game for other players. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to give me a shout. I check the boards several times a day. Just send me a PM. </span>

Thankyou Arianna, I had better go back, I certainly didn't see a key when I dropped through the pit. Thanks for the help everyone.

As Arnie used to say, 'I'll be back', more than likely. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
