Hi All,
After 3 weeks of late evenings, and no weekends, and great understanding from my wife, I have completed the mission. I didn't use any hints, helps, or cheats! The only time I used the manual was to see how to charm a weapon or armour.
I would like to especially thank the creative minds that made this fine piece of software!

Here are my final stats:
Hero Level 50 MAGE
Exp 43315686
Vitality 620
Magic 1026
Strength 135
Agility 160
Intelligence 121
Constitution 80
Offense 111
Defense 122
Damage 86-119
Armour 238
Lightning Resistance 345
Fire Resistance 401
Poison Resistance 355
Spirit Resistance 459
Reputation 41
Gold 314624

Final equipment:
Sword of the Gods
Helmet of the Dragon
Trackers Tower Shield (Had better shields)
Strange Amulet Mardec
Breastplate of the DragonHeart
Ruby Ring
Crystal Ring of Ethereal Banishment
Belt of the Dragon
Gloves of the Dragon
Electrifying Plate Leggings of the Sage
Heavy Leather B Boots (Had better boots)
( I literally had piles and piles of booty that I couldn't sell as no one had enough money to buy them...plus except for restoration bottles I needed nothing.

The game was fun and I became one with my character. I completed nearly all quests that I started. My only disappointment was that I don't remember what I did with one of the objects to join the Thieves Guild so there was a quest I couldn't finish. By the end of the game there was no monster that was even a challenge for my mighty Mage! - Since everything almost could be sliced like a hot knife through butter even at the end of the game, I can't even imagine how awesome it would have been to augment the sword skill 5 levels!!! (I had 5 skillpoint levels in reserve just in case the end game gave me a villain that didn't respond to my sword or magic)

PLEASE MAKE AN EXPANSION PACK!!!!

Thanks again!

Wow...I was just about to ask at what approximate level I should expect to finish the game, when I came upon this post. I was going to ask because at level 23 I have 6 skill points in reserve and didn't want to be hording them and have the game end with a bunch of points left that I could have enjoyed spending. Now I realize there is quite a bit left for me to do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I was rather concerned to see your stats though. Mine are horrid compared to those. I don't think I have any resists over 19 and my spirit is only ten. My strength and intelligence are 68... and my constitution 44 and agility only 14. I'm not having any particular problems killing things...but I certainly don't see that I could possibly end up with stats anywhere near those. Now I wonder what I am doing wrong...

Well congratulations on your success (and your indulgent spouse!!).

The funny thing is - I could actually have been higher in each of the categories had I played it a little different (smarter). But, much of the jumping up in points come later in the game.

However, even when I fought Joesphine the second time, I was surrounded by a slew of monsters who hacked and magicked me continuously, but my health maybe budged a sliver down.

I don't want to spoil things for you and others, so I don't want to reveal strategies on here. However, I would answer questions off-line at bluesilverfalls@yahoo.com

Good luck in your quest,

Dave
