Heck; I just shut down it's weapons with the control box and the handy instructions that you get from Ahru. I think you can shut it down completely (three options) but then lose experience points that you would otherwise get. Is there an advantage to using the levers (which I never noticed) or just fighting it straight up?

I could never get the control box to work. Then again, I am "that person" who'll always find the wrong way to do something.

Well, the three/four guys that were already in the tunnel keep using air attacks, which trigger the strong attacks from the robotic creature. Should I wait for them to be defeated before I start attacking? Am I to understand the lever will disable the creature for a round?

I am trying to find the best way to defeat it, hopefully without losing experience points, but if I have to go that route, so be it.

Those guys take quite a chunk out of it - I tend to support them to keep them alive but, with the weapons turned off, the machine doesn't do a lot of damage and their air attacks don't trigger anything. Without the control box, I don't know. I defeated it once that way (after a lot of help from Raze) but opted to use the control box every other try. It was my very first play through so I don't remember how I did it - luck probably. Vometia: are you sure it wasn't working? I don't think there's a message or anything - it keeps fighting with the weapons disabled option - just doesn't do much damage.

Cast rain and go all in on lightning, IMO. It dies very quickly, and you can knock down / stun it through most of its turns.

If you find the NPCs there more trouble than they are worth, you can keep them from joining combat by engaging the first in conversation, having the rest of the party continue on and start the fight, then end the conversation and have that character use a teleporter pyramid to join the rest of the party.

There is that possibility, but given that I can't even work the remote for the telly, I'm thinking that "she's doing it wrong" is the most likely explanation.

Use it from the character's inventory, and if another character later in the turn order (or earlier in the next turn) is close enough to use it, pass it to them.
Angry - Happy - Angry : vent steam
Angry - Angry - Sleepy : discharges electricity (can't use lightning bolt attack, unless it gets charged again by air damage)
Sleepy - Sleepy - Happy : deactivate melee attacks
Angry - Angry - Angry : deactivate controller Happy - Happy - Happy : "party time"

So, if I disable the machines melee attack or the shock attack, how long will those be in effect?

Permanent as far as I can tell (except the recharge via air attacks). Never tried leaving in the middle of the fight; it may have to be done again in that case. The instructions that say what Raze listed above can be found in Ahru's room (he gives permission to take them if you ask the correct questions) as is the controller.

Actually, you should be able to take the controller instruction manual even without talking to Arhu.

Hello! I am a newbie in an RPG genre. And i am completely stuck in the Luculla forest. Goblins and spiders constantly tear me apart. I think one of the problems is a my second main character. 10lvl male Cleric. I find him completely useless. Probably i shouldn't tried to create a hybrid class (paladin style) character, as his melee and magic powers are very weak both. I don't know in which direction should i lead his level-up...
His stats are
Strength - 11 (3 from Gear) Dexterity - 5 Intelligence - 7 Constituion - 9 (1 from gear) Speed - 7 Perception - 5
Weapons
2 on Single-handed (and that probably a mistake, i find two-handed Madora musch more useful)
Defence
Arm. spec -2 Shield spec/ - 3 (1 from gear) (meh... it's lame, shield is not so good in blocking to prefer it to two-handed...) I don't know, should i drop shield and develop two-handed or dual-wielding? Willpower - 1(1 from gear) Bodybuilding -2
Skills
Aero - 1 Hydro - 1 Man At Arms - 2
I don't know is better to invest in melee as he is 11 str. with gear or try to make him more a battlemage? But as far as he using heavy armor his movement is very bad also. Lvl 1 spells are useless against many enemies in Luculla.
Also.
Blasmith. - 1 Crafting - 4 Telekinesis - 3 (i find it useless too) Lore - 2
I will be glad to hear what can i make with a most useless member of the party. First i thought Cleric will be able to use a lot of healing spells. But healing from hydro and cure wounds from man-at-arms are not so effective as i thought to be, and because of cooldown he is not near the position of main healer of the party, his one-handed + shield melee attacks are weak and his magic spells are weak also, he is also very slow because of heavy armor. I don't know what to do with him, if he was not a main character, i will rather drop him.

Really simple newbie question here. Is it possible to set up dual wield weapons in the hot bar? My guy goes between bow and dual daggers a bit. In a game like Neverwinter Nights, I could drop two weapons on the same hotbar spot, or a one-handed weapon and a shield, and the game would figure it out. Is there anything like that here? Thanks.
