  1. I havent had any experience with any problems with this patch, however I dont think you're patched to the latest version...2.40 which patches out the christmas island quests as that holiday period is over. So you may want to do that, although you will probably have to restart the campaign with your current character.

     

    In any case,

    welcome to the forums :Just_Cuz_21:

  2. REM - Mad World

     

    Wasn't that song from Gary Jules, instead of REM?

     

     

    I listen first from R.E.M and loved it. Didn't research if it is a older song or such.

    Good to know.

     

    I dont know if R.E.M. ever did madworld, I think that may just be a common misconception although I may be wrong. However it was first sung by Tears for Fears and was recently(ish) covered by Gary Jules and Micahael Andrews on piano which is the version that sends chills down my spine

     

  3. Thats right. Although sometimes someone will create a server named [D.a.r.k], usually u would just look to see who is ingame if u wanna play with someone in particular, all us Clan Dark members have the [D.a.r.k] tag in their character name

  4. Well if you bought the game of the shelf in australia then you are set to the european servers by default. Once youve logged onto the lobby you should be able to see all manner of servers/games you can join. There arent any exclusively aussie servers, but there are english ones, although alot of people online do understand at least some english so u can join the german or italian or whatever ones you want. Also, to play with anyone from this clan you would also have to make your characters hardcore when you create them.

  5. If you downloaded it then I have no idea what version you have, but you can check what servers you are connecting to. When you sign into you're sacred 2 account ingame just below the username and password boxes there should be the name of the server and port number. eg if you are connecting to the Eu servers it would be eu.sacred2.net and port 6800. If not then you are probably connected to the us servers. I know that someone here downloaded the game from somewhere and was able to change his servers so ill look for it for you

     

    Edit: Ok...the person who downloaded it had downloaded it from steam but he managed to change the optionsDefault.txt file. If you go to your sacred 2 install folder, then the "scripts" folder there should be a optionsDefault.txt file. If you open this file and change the network part to:

    network = {
    lobby_ip = "eu.sacred2.net",
    lobby_port = 6800
    }

    then you should be able to connect to the eu servers. I recommend that you back up the optionsDefault file first tho incase it doesnt work. In anycase you will have to create a new account for yourself on the servers to be able to play.

     

    Hope this helps for ya and let us no if you manage to join us in the servers

  6. General mix up will be Fire+GI or Ice+GI.

    Expanding on what Kat said here most people will pick their main lore, for example fire and choose the skills to go with it, arrant pyromancer lore/focus and then also pick delphic arcania focus and spend 9 points in it so they can fully modify GI and also any bonuses to delphic arcania focus will allow u to have a higher level of GI without any penalties granting a better bonus to spell regen/healing.

     

    Hope that helps :4rofl:

  7. Also, if you were still unsure about anything for the seraphim then you can read the information detailing her combat arts and the modifications they get as you level up and some usage strategies to go with a few of them at the seraphim part of the Sacred Wiki.

     

    Hope that its useful to you. Its got information about every character, their combat arts, skills, attribute, has info about quests, set items, unique items and heaps more, definitely worth a read

  8. There are a few of us around on the forums here, me for one. Also stubbie that I know of. If you wanna have a look/search thru the official sacred 2 forums there are a few posts by aussies, mainly about the terrible ping we are subjected to like here.

     

    Of course im sure that while you may only have some level 1 chars if you start playing they can get alot higher and hopefully we can catch up online :)

  9. Well, my HE was level 23 last night...until it kicked the bucket, I probli shouldnt still have been wearing my level 10 gear, but was planning on shopping some more at level 25 or 30...bit too logng of a break I think :)

     

    Anyway, I will recreate it, so I guess low levels then gogo...ie anywhere between 1-25 in the next week or so depending how much I play, so any help would be great. Im glad I kept my trading suit in the shared stash, that will save me some cash when I restart

     

    On the other hand tho this does allow me to introduce my first officially [D.a.r.k] character...Hippolyte (anyone know where I got the name from?) a currently level 6 dryad with whom im gonna kick some butt (hopefully) with blowpipes and darting assault:)

  10. So I'm trying to decide on a character that I will be able to enjoy somewhat like the amazon.

    Well the character most like the amazon would be the dryad, specializes in bows and blowpipes and she can also use voodoo magic to back her ranged capabilities up. Im not really an expert, but I played one recently and she kicked some serious butt!

     

    There are a few good guides for her here

     

    However if you're set on the seraphim or highelf then Dobris build is pretty straightforward but powerful if u use it well, im following it for a fire build and im doing ok at the moment.

     

    Seraphim-wise, I have no idea specifically on BFG, ive only played a dual wield seraphim, but from what ive seen ingame BFG is pretty strong, in any case as long as u make some fairly sensible skill choices you should be able to survive up to and thru at least gold. There is a guide to a BFG seraphim here that seems to have some pretty positive comments in it and alot of information in both the first post and afterwards to give you a lot of background to base you're decisions on.

     

    Anyway, in any case welcome to the world of sacred and hope u enjoy you're stay :)

  11. yeah I have that same problem with the dying...I wonder why...

     

    Otherwise I dont really seem to have much of a problem, I crashed to desktop for the first time the otherday when joining a server and the only other problem ive noticed (may have missed some) is after a long time ingame the map brought up when using portals or pressing "m" seems to only show portals and no actual map.

     

    All in all theres not really any problem for me, other than some terrible ping (*presses spacebar*...waits 1-2 seconds...*dies...health tries to go up and fails*)

  12. Yeah, I found it the other day...got a nice set of bunny ears to go with it...looked pretty good on my seraphim :thumbsup:

     

    @ silearth I dont think there is any easy way to do it until youve done it once...then you can use portals to get pretty close to it and only have to walk from somewhere in the human area...that really distant place is the last part of the quest anyway so thats it for the walking afterwards
