  1. You are trying to install a wrong patch. You must patch it first with 2.02 to 2.10 patch, then with 2.10 to 2.12 ... and then the other patches.

     

    Alternatively, try downloading and using the Patch_2.40.0. It applies every patch released for the original 2.0.2 version to get it to 2.40. Then's there the 2.43 patch you can get as well after this one.

     

    Thank you, thats the one I used (also 2.43) now its on!

     

    I am also using win7 which I had to change to XP sp6 to get it working correctly

  2. Have you got it installed on a different hard drive to your os? There are sometimes issues patching in that circumstance.

     

    Its installed in the folder C: Programs(x86) , Deep Silver , Sacred2-Fallen Angel. and this is where I moved the patches to. frustrating, cos my old PC was a bit of a pig, and now I wanna play with all the effects on, as its ment to be played

     

    Hmm...did you download the patches for the correct version?

     

    As far as Im aware yes, I installed the UK version last time, and thats what Im trying to do now. I even have 3 patches just to make sure Im using the right one.

  3. I use a ranged staff (I cant remember its name cos its been awhile since I played)and cast Scything Sweep, Frenzied Rampage , buff with Reflective Emanation and Nether Allegiance and Im set. I dont get a scratch so I can afford to wear some lighter more appropriate armour.

     

    Does Ruinous Onslaught cause the Hellhound to charge? And Belligerent Vault to leap?

     

    Ive not tried them yet..prolly cos my hound died. sad day. :sigh:

  4. So I summoned up my god powers with my level 6 Shadow Warrior and the Sakara Demon starts doing some damage. Then my henchman, whom I had for the hireling mission, takes offence to the demon and starts shooting him with a bow. next thing ya know Ive got a blimmen great demon after me. No real choice but to run into a cave. I popped my head out to see if the coast is clear but nah, its still there, and terrorising the locals. which I might add Im not getting any xp for.

    Next choice is to throw my quite weak skeletal fortification at it and hope for the best. Going toe to toe with a demon is not a good idea. demonic blow just isnt doing enough damage. neither is the skeletal fortification. And I ran out of health potions and so close to ending the life of a Sakara Demon. After I restarted and topped up on health potions I headed back to where this beast was lurking and had it out with him/her/it(?) and was quite dissapointed after giving it a jolly good thrashing, that I recieved no xp for it.

     

    ah, so, anyone else had this happen to them?

    I could have stayed at a distance and let it take alot of fights for me, and have it follow/chase me round the map and take a bit of health of bosses for me, but cripes, when it hits, ya feel a bit of a sting

  5. I use an energy weapon with my Shadow Warrior. It almost never misses.

     

    Demonic Blow, great for a huge blow to a boss from a distance.

     

    Scything Sweep, at a moderate range it can fire (and I have a picture somewhere) 9 shots at enemies. or it may only fire one if their is only one attacker.

     

    Frenzied Rampage, had up to atleast 5 rounds pumped into one creature, and if it kills an enemy one shot it hits another, then another..

     

    Astral Lord Focus, cos skellies are handy for fodder and doing damage on big bosses.

     

    Tactics Lore for the mods.

     

    Astral Lord Lore, if you throw a skeletal fortification under an enemy it does serious damage. and by the time it finishes I can throw another out..anyone know if you can have two at a time:)

  6. I use a magic stave with my SW.

    Works well, and when used with scything sweep it can hit up to 11 creatures, at range.

    Havent adjusted much to make this a more powerful weapon, never know, may find a better sword or axe later on.

    I would put a pic up of my SW in action, but unsure how to do so on here

  7. Hi and Welcome DunJuan :agreed:

     

    When you try to install patch is it telling you it cannot find Sacred 2 and that you should re-install ? If that's the case it sounds like you have the wrong patch. If you let me know what version you have including build number I can give you a link to correct patch

     

    You should have no issues making a copy of your saved files or moving them, then moving back after re-installing.

     

    You cannot continue quests with a different character. I seem to remember something about this bug, if you patch game and still have same issue I can dig around a bit and see if I can find anything on it. If the quest is still bugged you can always re-do on a different difficulty.

     

    You do not need the riding skill to use a horse or special mount though the regen penalty for Combat Arts will be higher than when unmounted if you do not take Riding

     

    I tried all 3 of these patches and none have worked thus far.

    My game is version 2.0.2.0 (according to the read me file when I installed the game)

     

    Downloaded from http://update.sacred2.com/dl_international.html (Eng not US)

    Sacred2-UK-INT-2_34_0_0-Full

    Sacred2-UK-2_34_0_0-Full

    Sacred2-UK-2_31_0_0-2_34_0_0

     

    Should I be moving these files to a specific folder?

     

    Thanks for the other answers too.

  8. I can get up to the area where the Seraphin takes me on a quest, some island somewhere (cant remember names sorry, north on the map) and this dude is going on about a bonded mount, but when I try and talk to him my game crashes, everytime. I downloaded a patch, but even that is telling me to re-install my game.

     

    First, is it ok to save my saves elsewhere, re-install then put my saves back to carry on or will it glitch the game?

     

    And is it possible to continue my quests with the Seraphin even though I am a Shadow Warrior?

     

    Also, do I need 'riding' to be able to use my bonded mount, which as yet I am unable to obtain.

     

    Thanks

  9. urgh, not to sure how to post my character sorry.

    Level 35 Shadow Warrior, on the verge of level up.

     

    What does 'opponent level for death blow' mean?

    I had this at about 40% at one stage, and thought it ment I had a 40% chance to outright kill an opponent. hasnt happened yet, but its only taking 2 hits to kill normal monsters.

    Decided to up the chance to find valuable items, and it sits ok at 35%

    Couple of parts from different sets, and getting bucketloads of coin in the process.

     

    great game I must say, even better than the original and that was great. still is really.

     

    Cant seem to get MP to work for me either. and patches, whats the story with them, do I need them?

     

    sorry if Im posting in the wrong forum people.

     

    You need version 2.31.0 Build 1453 client side, server-side is their business and only works in MP.

     

    % chance of Deathblow means that when an enemy has below the % amount in HP, you deal 2x damage on them.

     

    So if I have 40% chance of Deathblow, and fight Xianthar (Dragon region boss), who has, say exactly 10,000 HP, I'll deal double damage once he's below 4000.

     

     

     

    WICKED!

     

    thank you for that.

    Now I know what weapons to equip when comming across boss monsters.

     

    oh and I have no idea what version I have and build client 1453 client side is way out of my league.

     

    Im a Shadow warrior, not a High Elf :lol:
