  1. The number of swords that require sword mastery isn't worth the effort. True, it makes Boneslicer pretty useless in later difficulties but I have found its pretty useless compared to other unique swords that I only ever use it in Silver anyway. The only other unique is Quetzals and its not that great anyway. Sword lore mostly improves 1 stat per weapon, so though DW replaces most of its purpose, you still gain something from having both.

     

    Since you have both lores Steve, I would get both to 75 anyway. There is just not as much rush to get sword lore as DW, in your case.

  2. Wow :)

     

    There were no reports of them dropping before the CM patch (though someone did mention grey-quality lightsabers dropping once), so I guess the CM patch fixed it.

    Yeah, you can get them from bosses or something with the most recent version.

     

    Of course, its still faster to simply shop for one.

     

    CM Patch lets those few character classes without bargaining to actually think they might get one now. Shopping on an SW will never get you this item.

  3. I think I was wrong about part you are on, you have probably completed the 1st two parts of quest and didn't have any new links after the ones in Thylysium? Either way, I think this is where you want to be next:

    The game just sort of stopped after I did the Thylysium part, it was only from knowing where it should be next that I could complete it. After you accept this guys quest the chain will work again, though you will need to highlight it each step as it looses focus

  4. Okay, I believe I am right behind you now in quest, the part you are on is called "A Search for new life". is it not? I looked on another SW who has finished chain, but I couldn't tell from description exactly where he is.

     

    I will play tomorrow to find this general, from memory this part was not showing a blue circle last time I played through. I think the guy you are after is in the army camp behind Clearview, as from here it warps you to a cave that is also used in the Blind Guardian quest chain. I will confirm it tomorrow (currently doing all the quests, so I am not in a rush to go into Thylysium as there are too many there)

  5. I never thought I would get a Light Sabre, what with the small chance of finding one in a shop, and the need for bargaining in first place, my poor Shadow Warriors had just resigned selves to never getting one. Then CM patch 90 was released, making them a possible drop. I ignored it thinking that is nice.

     

    Then the Alien in the Crop Circles quest dropped this:

    I thought they are meant to take damage from willpower but highlighting skill doesn't show this. Having GR boost willpower is a bonus.

     

    I will need to roll a Temple Guardian to make full use of this weapon.

     

    I only just noticed it has a fire portion to damage, lucky I added a ring to it that does burn damage and a lava item. The advantages of having a blacksmith, the socket it has normally only accepts bs runes or ca runes.

     

    I love the sound it makes, though the constant noise is a pain. I have noticed talking to npc's stops the sound.

  6. perhaps DM island isn't really on world map but is a separate layer? When I started my 1st DM I wondered if they might be the best explorers, only because they have access to this island and no one else does.

     

    I didn't know there was a 2nd layer of dungeons, explains why Slevin said there are 3 layers on a SIF post.

  7. I am surprised r00ster didn't link a post he made on SIF forums about each different class, but anyway.

     

    Here it is: Difficulty of character. Not sure if it is still current.

     

    It is much easier to restart from level 20 than it is from 120, I have listened to rooster's advice before and have used a build very similar to the one he listed above for the last year. Once you have a good build, levels fly past and what was a struggle before, isn't any more.

  8. And this was why in the beta we asked for them to put the same detail on skills as they did with CAs (base level + actual level), would have made life so much easier...

     

    Getting naked to see what your actual skill levels is, is just dumb. This would have made it so much easier. Sometimes I have a few weeks between plays and trying to remember what is what level is difficult.

  9. The only reason I would take 2 weapon lores now is to use fist weapons. Since they use sword lore to open 1 bonus (normally) and using 1 as opposed to 2 just seems pointless, I can see a use for sword lore/Dual Wield but I would need a lot more fist weapons 1st before I went this spec, as they are fairly rare (they only exist in CM patch).

     

    Generally, 1 lore is enough

  10. I am not sure if this is a new bug, since I haven't played the Shadow Campaign in ages. At the part in quest where you go into cave next to Forest Guardian on Dryad Island, the game went silly tonight. As I got to cave, I opened a chest outside entrance and for some reason game redirected me to one of the Staff NPC's in the Elven region. Since it had been a while between playing, I followed the lead and then slapped myself, as I realised class quest is the same on both campaigns. What you should do is go in cave and kill someone... hopefully the person you are meant to meet for the quest is in the cave, or class quest is broken for me (not that I really need another legendary axe, I have a few of that one already).

     

    This is on CM Patch 90.

     

    Has anyone else had this problem? I know you can't do it on closed anyway but some of you might play offline also.

  11. Imagine if every quest in Sacred 2 was actually an Easter egg. Makes you wonder.

     

    I said similar in this thread on the SIF regarding the Jazz cave and what Olms are.

     

    Todays date is 10/10/10 which is binary for 42... Douglas, where are you?

  12. Grats on Legendary Gogo, shame it has knock back.

     

    Doesn't surprise me that Fen Fires can drop nice rewards occasionally as they are painful to have to face up to, and its almost worth running away if you see 5 or more. I will have to remember to use magic resist against them.

     

    Lol at BG giving legendaries, I will have to do it more often now.

     

    T Energy dragons might have been a handful.
