Hey Ric, just found something that might insterest you, at least it was new for me. I found a relic set that only consists of three pieces, Kilth Em Al. The set bonus gave me +20% combat art range. That's quite good, no? I'm a complete noob with these relic sets, I've been collecting them for a long time, but never actually took the time to match them, I just hoarded them and forgot about it soon. Do you (or anyone else) know of some page where I can find out what the set bonuses are for each set? I can't find anything Edit: Ahaaa! They're Sigil sets. Ok, I was searching for relics. Here we go: https://www.sacredwiki.org/index.php/Sacred_2:Sigils_and_Gemmae So it doesn't even have to be in the active slot, the set bonus works even if it's passive. You can have the beautiful magic find relics active for example and still have the bonus. That's nice, ha?

Sacred Underworld - Disabling combat music ?
Sethi22 replied to OlivierGamba's topic in Sacred Underworld General Discussion
Well I just deleted the ones I didn't like in my Sacred\mp3 directory. Then they stay silent. Not very sophisticated, I know... -
Ahhh how could I forget the Conan part? I loved that movie, the books too, shame on me for not remembering! Maybe becuase it was late at night and I was already in switch-off mode... Yep Dax, There were lots and lots of great sounds in there that I had never heard ingame, some were german, some completely alien, lots of creature sounds and conversations that I couldn't identify, it was meant to be bigger, that's for sure!
-
Ok, Alf, I had enough of standing around doing nothing, waiting for these afk sounds, so I approached this important matter in another way. I took the Pak extractor found here: and extracted everything from sound.pak. Then I started listening... Yes, all the 6598 of them, because I thought you deserved as much for all your hard work on the Wiki. And this is what I found: "Hah, I can crush seven of you at a stroke!" is indeed Dark Elf, so you were right, and I was wrong. (Dwarves should be the ones crushing things, Dark elves should be cutting! Oh well, whatever...) You can listen to it if you extract all the files, 16699 is the number. "What is this - the neverending story?" is really a Daemoness afk line, 20905, so both of us were right. We rock! "What are you waiting for? Christmas? Ye Gods! Now I sound like the 'Duke'!" Is indeed a battle mage afk line, so I was right and you had no clue at all! 17774. (There are other "What are you waiting for, christmas?' lines, but without the Duke reference, Dark Elf 16624, Gladi 17024, Sera 18144, Vamp 18532) "A small task for me, but a huge one for mankind..." 17995 is a Battle Mage line, it is after the line about the book of Sakkara 17994, so maybe it's connected? I don't remember hearing this line ingame. "Crom..." is a Gladiator line, (whatever it means), I have no idea where it is ingame, 17229 "The Brave Little Tailor" I couldn't find anywhere, sorry! "Good morning, Mr. Anderson" is indeed a BM afk line, 17787 "Haradrim!" Well, this guy sounds like an orc to me! You decide! 11289 Have also found a few more, 17822 is the Battle mage saying "What is it they say? Don't meddle in the business of magicians? (That's the one for the Tolkien part of you easter eggs page, as the original quote goes like “Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.”) 18733 is the Vamp saying: "From the blood of Morgast? A power hungry ally" that goes to your Arthurian section, and also 21116, where the Daemoness says: "I could never stand this Morgast brood! Oh well, if you have to choose between two evils, you'll choose the lesser of the two." 21246 is a Dwarf afk line, where he sings: "Heigh-Ho-Heigh-Ho, it's off to work we go" is a reference to Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. 21253 is another Dwarf afk line, "It's a good job, we're not escorting a ring bearer" - Lord of the Rings 21411 is another song that the Dwarf sings: "I can move-move-move any mountain!" That is a reference to a song from the group Shamen: Move any mountain. That's it.

Well Alf, I only know a few of them. The second about the neverending story is the daemoness being impatient when you go afk. And there are at least two more that are afk lines, the "what are you waiting for" and the "good morning mr. Anderson" I think are both Battle mage afk lines. I'm not sure, has been awhile since I played BM... Hmmm The mr. Anderson could be Dark Elf afk, I'm really not sure about that, the Duke reference is Bm, the mr. Anderson is BM or Dark elf... The first one I guess is the dwarf when facing weak opponents? You say Dark elf? Wow I'm getting senile, I'm confused now. I don't know the rest. Will keep an ear out!
-
Sure Gogo, I have one! I copied it from the screenshot game. That is hard work right there, see? I pressed the right mouse button once with all my strength and determination, and all these corpses came into being. Good?
-
That's Spell resistance I think. I'm too lazy to check now, but I think a succesfull check on that gives you 30% damage reduction. Maneus sir did all kinds of tests with it. If you summon him again, he might get angry because you don't remember any more. I think you should look that up before summoning him! We shouldn't make him angry!
-
Wow Ric, this is truly great! Ahhh this battle daemon! Straight from Sacred1, beautiful! Together with all the minions you can create with Inexorable, and your Doppelganger, one can now make a proper summoner I think. I'm even thinking about Divine devotion (for the first time ever) to bring out the Sakkara more often. Let the minions take care of bosses (While you stun them with your beam)! Well that would be the pure caster/summoner way. But you're boomsticking too. (Yesterday I was confused for a while about your approach with the boomstick and LL% (Well I was confused about many things actually, it was one of those days...) I thought for a while that leech was based on your own damage somehow. But that's not the case, LL% only scales with enemy life, right? I think we had this thing sorted out in the ranged SW thread once, on page...x So even if you don't focus on your own boomstick damage with Tactics, with high amount of LL% you can stand your ground against bosses, and do considerable damage. Is that your plan?) edit34: Ok a few more questions-suggestions: I'm really not sure how to approach the defensive side of Inquisitor. Mitigation sucks, it will be much worse than with the SW, as Grim Resilience gives a ton if modded right, and SW has the great Kanka armor too... Here I couldn't really find any armor with all channel mitigation, you can shop for them, but they won't be anywhere near as good as the ones the SW has. He has the gold mod Inure on Purifying Chastisement that gives mitigation, but that is tied to your life % I think. (Is it?) So I see that Inquisitors can now equip shields in EE, and that is a good thing. Also you have the base defense from the Evade mod on Reverse Polarity. You say it is not much, but as far as I know that is a flat value, and if you have Soul reaver, that gives % defense after every kill, that small flat value gets pumped to cosmic levels later on. Maybe we could go for Shield lore and pump it even further? But then what about the spell damage we recieve? Our mitigation and willpower suck... Anyway, this will be a real struggle compared to the SW. You say you use the Sera physical mitigation runes, ok, but you won't be able to take them out. With the SW on level 130ish, I could take all of them out and still have 100% phys mitigation. You won't have that here, so most of your sockets will remain like that till the end!? That's ugly! And one more thing: If you use Inexorable regularly, that Exploit mod on Reverse polarity is a must, I think! You'll have legions of minions, that each take away from the damage you recieve. I guess it works for the Daemon and the Doppelganger too, why wouldn't it? So this is the best way to get "mitigation" I think, but then there are some bosses where you won't have all those little rascals running around because they expire... But even like that, you can have the two minions (and the Sakkara - does it work with the Sakkara too?) So at high levels that can save your butt even without the ghosts, I think. Soooo maybe focusing on Reverse polarity and Soul Reaver together with lots and lots of minions is your best choice for defense. Ok, no more edits here. I'm out.

I understand you all too well, Ric, tons of fun with Inquisitors on low levels with mobs, sure! The best! Bossfights were his Achilles' heel. Hmmmm hmmm... Tell me, how does switching to Alternate spells mid-build affect your gear? Is it the total destruction of jewellery I had when switching to EE from the original? Ok, ok, I'll make a backup and find out myself. Understood! (Man, I haven't even checked this alternate spells yet, I'm slooooow.... )
-
But how will you stay alive on harder difficulties? Socketing everything with cheated mitigation gear, I assume? No Constitution, No Toughness, I guess Lifeleech% on bosses, and the rest doesn't really matter, right? Is that the plan there? Are You doing this with challenge mode and superspawn? You are one brave adventurer, Ric! (What the hell?) Edit: Oh you edited the combat arts and mods since! Nice work! Now I will need some more time to think about all these. There are some new things there, that I should consider. For example that spell based lifeleech on Soul Reaver? Now that looks interesting! Edit2: Ok, I forgot I was in EE too for a while, I think! I thought you were the pioneer again and I couldn't follow you on your new adventures, being left behind, wondering... Why on earth am I asking you these questions about the inquisitor, when I have several inquisitors and EE too? So after realizing this, I took a look, and this 3rd buff on Soul Reaver gives 10% of your life per kill. So not bad, not bad, useless in bossfights, but then you can have LL%. Ok!

Nice! Still no maps though... What's up with the maps? Are they being renovated too?

Ric's Ranged Shadow Warrior for Enhanced Edition Mod
Sethi22 replied to ric7202's topic in Sacred 2 Guides - Shadow Warrior
I think Inexorable was fixed in CM Patch. So you can move while using it. I remember the old version where you had to stand in place, but I think that's fixed now! It just stuns and then you can move in using other combat arts. As far as I remember it worked on most bosses too. But what do you mean you have no points in that tree yet? What about Eruptive Desecration? I thought you had Nefarious for that. Or have you dropped that project already and focused on the first aspect instead? So is this a 2 aspect build then now? Or 3? No more exploding corpses? -
Ric's Ranged Shadow Warrior for Enhanced Edition Mod
Sethi22 replied to ric7202's topic in Sacred 2 Guides - Shadow Warrior
I'm fine Ric, thanks! Loosing 30 levels is ok in my book, had much worse... (I accidentally overwrote my exported level 150ish Nio daemon in Sacred 1 for example, only to realize I had no save to go back to. She was gone for good.) These things happen to me. I'll get those levels back in no time, don't worry! Instead, tell me: How do you handle bosses with the almighty Darth Sauron? Do you use Inexorable to stun them and go in with the boomstick? -
Ric's Ranged Shadow Warrior for Enhanced Edition Mod
Sethi22 replied to ric7202's topic in Sacred 2 Guides - Shadow Warrior
No Ric, I'm playing too, but terrible things happened to me! I lost much progress as my Windows completely failed and had to reinstall without being able to save anything I had in C:\. My poor Lightsaber dude lost like 30 levels since my last backup. Good thing I haven't found any Kankas in these 30 levels! Now I feel lucky! I have no clue about your question sadly, You'll have to find someone better! -
Thanks Gogo! I knew it should be done, I just... postponed it, so to speak...
