Hello,
I was browsing walmart awhile ago and saw this game (gold edition) online, so I went ahead and ordered two copies for my wife and I to play. It seems the servers are down but it's got LAN, which made me happy. I have a problem with importing my single mode character into the LAN game; it seems that I'm able to import the LAN character to single play, but not vice-versa. Is this normal or am I missing something?
Also, I'm having trouble getting started in this game. Not that it's hard to manage, but I'm new to PC game in general, so it's sort of a feeling of how to get into it. (PC games seem to be a bit more min/max management in the RPG types, like Never winter and this game...sort of hard to NOT screw up my character )
What's a goos way to start off? Should I just sort of put points everywhere, or will it really kill my character later on? I'm just sort of playing with my wife at the moment, but she's running a seraphim, and I was thinking about a Daemon or maybe a Battle Mage. Would it mess me over if I made a build that was sort of both magic and melee (Like physical regen points and alternate to strength or mental regen, to lower the combat arts for both magical and non). I'm sure this will make a "gimped" build, but I'm hoping that it will at least just DO well in both areas, but still require a bit of effort.
Then again, I have no idea if I even understand the skill system in this game haha. Pretty cool game though, hope you all still play it enough to visit the forums...seems a bit aged, but it also seems like it would last through the time it's been out.
Sorry for the wall
