I encountered some unbalanced things:
- XP-Exploit for Exploration is not only given repeated on esmeralda's house in backroom or basement but also with the box in N which is burning and a bomber comes out of it
- the battles are really more balanced now, the wizard was downgraded with more AP and longer cooldowns - very good decision, no longer the rain spell and then stunning the enemys in the same turn - htat really needs thinking where to put the waterpool of the rain so you can stun them in the next turn after their move!! - yes that's a challenge ;P
- the AI can't see all blocking terrain and the shot's or spells are blocked
- the player also can not see what is blocking terrain because the enemy is highlighted but then the shot or spell are blocked too
- but the melee weapons now use only strength and not singele-handed- or two-handed-skill like before and it's much harder to increase strength than those two skill's - I think it was better with a minimum strength but not as much as now and some more points in skill needed to wield the weapons
and it's the same with bows and crossbows, where you need dexterity to wield them and no longer the bow or crossbow skill!!
- the healing spell does around thet much healing like burning or poision does now - so it's ok
- on the beginning beach there are some minor bugs which prevent you from walking through:
- the old archway in the brick wall cannot be used tzo shortcut the way to the shell
- you cannot walk to the bridge (with the first 2 legionaiers) when walking in the river
- you don't get wet when entering a river even while beeing shown as only the head is outside the water?! and in battle the stun doesn't hit persons standing in river!!only in water-pools of the rainspell
- the river can also not be steamed with firespells
- the fishing gear and the lid of a barrel are found too often in barrels and boxes ( after finishing all boxes and barrels in town I have over 20! lids and 12 fishing gears!!)
- I also didn't find how to turn the lid into a shield ;(
- why do the ranger (survivor) get a arrowhead which he can't use with an arrowshaft becauseof crafting skill to low (need more than 2 crafting (I did not test on which level of skill it works) because only getting 3 skills per upleveling you have to choose crafting or battle and that ist not helping !!!! it's ok with 1 or 2 crafting skill to do arrows but not more, maybe magical arrows need more or some skill in sourcery
btu gameplay is more challenging and so more fun
thx a lot
