![]() ![]() If you want to be the "jump in the middle and explode" type, then it won't work for you. I tend to play mages as sniper types, rather than walk into the middle of the room at let loose a huge spell blast type, so the bow works very well for me. And it is better to have a bow that will finish off a guy who is at 10% health and quickly shoot another guy than to unleash a slow but massive shot on him - power and damage you didn't really need since he's almost dead - and then be unable to fire in time to stop the buddy that's charging up to you or the spellcaster about to let loose on you. They are worth a lot more than slow bows, because if you are being charged by a buncha guys, you need shots NOW, not fantastic shots later. That latter came in very handy even after I got items with good defense stats later, because there is still a big difference between being hit 49% of the time and 33% of the time. This allowed me to build up my strength so I could wear the best armor, and keep my defense high enough that I was VERY often missed. I never put any points into the bow until well into my 30's, either. My mage also picked up a bow and hardly used magic for a good long while. There is plenty of stuff to kill inside and outside the village, and of course the catacombs. maybe level 10 or 11? Can't remember, but at level 5 I had barely touched what that area had to offer. I don't think I crossed the river and permanently left my starting lands until I was. ![]() NOTE: the reason I say "gizmos" and "that guy" is because I don't wanna give stuff away :P but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Open the skills menu and hover over the "drop and use" icon and press anything between F1 and F12 so you can return to safety at the press of a key. To make it easier on yourself, use hotkeys. Anytime you need to heal/sell/store, just drop and use the other piece so you can get back to the one you dropped in the first place. Just drop one gizmo next to a bed with some storage or something and some shops close by and then go on your merry way. If you wanna be a mage, stick with mage skills and only take warrior skills (like repair or enchant) that you need. Now that you have these things, you won't need to waste skillpoints to become a pseudo warrior-mage and thereby killing your specialization in either field. ![]() Then simply pick it up and use it while it's in your inventory so you can take it back. Good Luck!Ī little tip: when that guy gives you the cool gizmo before you go in the catacombs, you should DROP and use it to get the other piece. I think there were five or so quests to do before you go out the main gate, still in the village. It pays to kill a few rats/rabbits and a few other things when you fall down the well and open the statue hatch. I want to believe I've missed something glaringly obvious because I refuse to believe the early game is this poorly designed.Īny tips? Thanks I have just started about ten days ago or so, but have you talked to everyone in town and done all five parts of the catacombs under the village? I think I was a lvl 5 after that. I keep kiting the orcs back to Lord Seth so he can kill them for me, but the farther I go, the more tedious this becomes. I have 2 spells that I can't cast so I'm expected to use my mage as a terrible fighter (still Level 1). and I'm set upon by Orcs who are way too strong for me. Now I'm ready to venture out beyond the gates to find the commander of that garrison. Explored the healer town and finished a couple of the fetch quests.
