Hi Bryan,
Oh, yeah. That really would bite. The purpose of getting a really high 
roll is to lay some major damage on an enemy. When that doesn't happen 
you really hope you have good stamina stats as the enemy is going to 
give you apounding.


Bryan Peterson wrote:
 39 is usually the number you get for rolling a twenty unless the enemy 
 itself is really tough. Lord Delgroth in the Cave of Four Spirits is an 
 example, or perhaps some of Daidrur's later elementals. There's nothing I 
 hate more than rolling a twenty and only hitting for a lousy ten damage, 
 especially when the enemy's only slightly wounded and you're down to your 
 last few stamina.

And if your malay rating isn't high enough and if you have gold to spare, 
you can go to Talinus and visit the shop of Yubrig the Armourer. The armour 
is amongst  the best that I've seen but a a piece costs anywhere from 
3-12000 gold!

 Well actually WILLAM I've noticed that that strategy works better with 
 the Seven Knights than with Gralgarak. Besides, if you can get your MR up 
 to sixty or so before you try Gralgarak's tomb (very possible if you do it 
 right), he's not that tough. It's when you fight him at lower levels that 
 he gets to be a problem. Me, I don't even bother with that quest until my 
 MR is past sixty simply because I have better things to waste Runes of 
 Life on. And his shield is the best one you can get in the game currently 
 without spending ATs or having Conjuration at an absurdly high level. Well 
 there is one other shield and it's in Graldok, but its stats are exactly 
 the same so it really doesn't matter which one you choose. But his boots, 
 shirt and glooves are excellent armor for that part of the game, 
 particularly if you did choose to do that quest right after Westwold. I 
 used to do that all the time.

I wondered the same thing about the different armors. I don't think anyone
 except the game master can positively say which is better. We can only
 guess.
 At the start you'll want to wait to buy equipment, a really good 
 equipment
 will cost you.
 The seven knight statues gives good equipment if you haven't done it
 already. Here is how to approach the quest.

 unequip your weapon before you attack the statues and then, just before

 Gralgarath in haucler too and also gives good equipment.

 Ok all, a quick simple sryth question.

 So I have studded leather sleeves which are common quality and give 2
 stamina. I also have sleeves that are just plain leather, also 2 
 stamina,
 but they are of sturdy quality. So they both give 2 stamina points. The
 sryth wiki ranks the armour materials and quality ratings, and it's 
 common
 sence. The studded leather sleeves are better material, but lesser 
 quality
 than the plain leather. We have a deadlock, which is truely the better
 armour in my posession?

 Where can I buy some better armour? I've aquired some good pieces on my
 first few quests, but I still have a few of the starters I got at the
 beginning.

 Regards,

 Justin

Re: [Audyssey] Sryth armour question

2008-06-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Justin,
It really all boils down to the stats listed on the armor in question. 
For example an unmatched set of leather armor is about on par with a 
common set of plate armor. If you don't have a very high enc rating then 
the unmatched leather armor will be as good as the common plate armor 
except it is a lot lighter to ware.
In my personal experience the material is usually less important than 
the quality of the armor in question. For example, I have a complete set 
of un matched chain armor. according to the stats at Griphook's my chain 
armor is equal to the unmatched skale armor, but of better material.
As far as armor goes the best place to buy armor is Griphook's in 
Trindmoor. However, the unmatched armor he sells is extremely expensive. 
My suit of chain armor cost me something like 50,000 in gold. A complete 
plate armor suit of unmatched quality is 65,000 if memory serves me 
correctly.
Anyway, if you are just starting out what I would do if I were you is 
under take some quests such as the Seven Nights and Gralgorak's tomb to 
pick up some decent armor for free. After you take on several quests and 
build your gold supplies up you can purchase something really good like 
an outfit of unmatched armor.

Hi,
Agreed. Gralgarak isn't that hard if you have a high enough mr and 
stamina. At the time I took on that quest Catherine had a mr of 65 and a 
stamina of 72. Gralgarak when down without doing any serious damage. I 
blew him away before he knew what hit him.
Using Goblin Doom against him helped as well since I got an extra 5 mr 
per attack roll against him, and he was just out classed, and out matched.

Hi,
Actually, his armor costs more than that if you go for the superior 
plate armor. His superior plate armor isn't bad, but Griphook's 
unmatched plate armor is the best you can buy that is non-magical.

Either I was extremely lucky or the game has improved the weapon's skill

One time I rolled a 20 and hit him for 39 damage. Most of the time I was 
hitting him with 13, 14, and 15 damage using Goblin doom.
