Nephilim 0 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Well hello there. Been a long time lurker! I have some general questions and what not and since I've always seen people so friendly and willing to answer, I thought I would ask! 1) I'm going to snag to UK version of the game, granted I'm in the US. Do most of the members around this forum already have the expansion, or are simply waiting for it? ( I don't suspect a US release of it. ) 2) Given I'll be on the EU servers, I'll be playing hardcore. Is there many of you all on throughout the day or do most of you play within a certain timeframe? (The reason I ask is because there is quite a few people here I would enjoy playing with, and playing alone all the time would certainly get disheartening!) 3) I've seen that people prefer the damage X-X rings, is there any specific reason as to why? 4) On another note, is there any real advantage to rushing a level 1 character to niobium? (I'm more curious as to why than anything) 5) I saw some mods related to the game. One that changes the hp bar and a couple others I believe. They did work in closed multi, so far as I know. Where or how would I find them, as they were indeed quite useful. (Mainly after UI changes or helpful things, no cheating garbage.) That's simply what crossed my mind now. I'm very much looking forward to playing with many of you who I've come to respect. I hope to eventually play with many of you online, and perhaps come within your ranks eventually. Much thanks for any help given! Link to comment
Grillgrim 0 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Hello Nephilim I am not a tech guy so I can't answer the first questions or the last one, but there are some I can answer: 3. The X-X is there because the modifiers can be different. It depends on the level and quality of the item that’s whey the numbers are not in place because your % may vary. 4. Level 1 niob is great if you have a bargainer. Noib has a base damage that is much higher than the other levels (due to the increased difficulty of the enemies) so your base damage, defense, and modifiers are higher with a level one sword noib than a level one sword bronze. enjoy the game and feel free to ask anyother questions you may have.

gogoblender 3,072 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Welcome to Darkmatters Nephilim! A good number of us here on site are playing in EU... Good choice On days like today, you'll find members playing in and out of servers depending on their levels. Myself, I was with a few others in Niobium for most of the day, as we got some experience on the toons. There's fun in rushing, sometimes fun in not... most times I just enjoy dynamics of builds, and so the journey is just as important as any kind of "ending" Grillgrim's already given you great info, and there's tons more to be had here on site with guides, discussions and of course SacredWiki. Get yer game...look us up! gogo Link to comment
Dragon Brother 619 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 It looks like most of your questions have been answered, however if youre after tips/different mods then this section of the forum will probably help you out: Sacred 2 Modding Link to comment
stubbie 21 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 There is a mod section at Dark here Przemba's visual mods changes the colouring of the hp bar. Link to comment

Nephilim 0 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 Thanks for the warm welcome and replies! I got my game downloaded last night and will probably be starting today around 430 EST. My schedule varies all over so I'm certain I'll cross most of you. Be quite a new experience as I had been playing softcore with family over on the US servers, and I get to restart from scratch AND hardcore. Looking forward to it though. Seems like many enjoy the hardcore thrills here, so I can find some company. The mod bar was in chrona's dragon mage pics, but I found the thread. Anything though is better than the current one, just am not completely fond of it lol. I'll be on later to begin the rampage, hope to see many of you as well! Link to comment
Grillgrim 0 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I made the switch to HC about 4 months ago and dumped all my SC characters. It was difficult and my HC graveyard is getting plenty of buisness, but I tell you, the game takes on a whole new feel when you only have one death. I love sitting up at midnight and loosing a 150 level character but I cant scream because it will wake up the wife and kids. Ohh how I want to scream. Or when you are going toe-to-toe with a dragon, you notice that you quaffed your last health potion just after you notice the dragon is going to drop and you stay and fight to the end. Remember two things about hardcore. 1. No guts, no pizza 2. WELCOME TO YOUR DOOOOOOM! Link to comment
