Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update you can also type brief to turn room descriptions off meaning that you'll more quickly hear what is going on in battle. I don't personally like this option since I like the room descriptions and want them read, so what I do is immediately  control when

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Music does change when you're in battle vs when you're not, but as Jade has wisely pointed out, you need to keep in mind that the first 10 or so levels are exceptionally easy, so you may not get as much of a chance to enjoy those changes.  Also, make

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update The problem I found was that I didn't have time to cast any spell or use any skill before whatever I was fighting was dead.  I thought that music was supposed to change during a battle.  Is that incorrect? URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Okay. This is a confluence of things.1. The first few fights you find outside the very first area you land in are very, very easy. Things will often die in a hit or two. Trust me, it won't remain this simple.2. You can type nomelee if you want, if you

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I have a question.  Is there a setting to change so that combat either isn't automatic, or at least I am notified at the beginning of a battle?  Last night I started with a new character, and it's been over 2 years since I've been there.  I noticed

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Ok.  I just wanted to make sure of the rule.  That way, if I have two chars, one day I might want to play with one, and the next the other.  Just wanted to make sure that was all right.  Also, I was looking at the website, and given all of the new info

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Correct in essentials: you can even use alts to store stuff for you, such as having a warrior with tons of strength who can carry heavier loads than say your mage char, or supposing the primary char on your account has a storage locker you want to put

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I have a quick question.  If I understand the rules, it is legal to have more than one character, each with their own class structures, etc., and you are allowed to play them independently, as long as only one character is logged in at any given time

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update @Nocturnus, yep, lots of good ways to get xp, you can also get it for doing any  it seems. that's one thing I like about druid, that there are so many things to do just for the sake of doing them, from gathering herbs and mushrooms, which also make

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Huuge tip for anyone who's a druid who cares: just in case it hasn't become obvious, charging spellstaffs is a great way to learn spells without wasting pracs, as well as a nice little bit of XP on the side.As another little sidenote, every class

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Tested the other day, and no, you do not have to kill the weather machine first in order to kill the vampire more easily. They aren't tied together.Ice Fog is pretty good. Must remember that instead of Tempest. I like using Tempest on bosses because

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Well as I said I don't so much go for optimum gear as what I can find where, which is another  reason why doing quests is cool, though your probably right about the cleric spells. Moose aren't usually around, unless you mean the elk? it is a great tank

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update On my druid char, I often run around with a moose. They have crazy HP and they hit like trucks. Then I either Tempest or Gust everything, or use Fist of the Earth if possible. That spell is wicked strong.Your gear isn't terrible, Dark, it's just

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update @Jayde with respect to my equipment I do a compare job when I run into new things, and upgrade when I find better druid cast gear, or occasionally gear with the same druid cast level and wisdom or mana boosts, though I do now have a mana regen set

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Okay, here's my really basic rundown on necro minions. The big ones, I mean, not the skeletons/tanks.Zombie: almost completely useless IMHO. Decent tanks, but they're slower than dirt.Ghouls: killing machines. I use them often.Mummies: Never used them

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update What's the best raised necro minion? I always thought it was a vampire since it has lots of curses. I've noticed that my vampire gets destroyed rather quickly so I've gone back to using skeletal knights and lichs. I'm still thinking about resetting

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I like warrior fourth because it will also give you access to Retreat earlier, plus Cry of Victory (a little healing after fights). Thief fifth lets you eventually get Pick Locks/sneak/searching/dodge. Warrior fourth gives you parry and shield block

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I'm fairly sure that you can kill the plague vampire before the weather machine, but I might be wrong. He's a bit tricky though, does some pretty decent damage. Yeah, just kill the machine next time, see if there's a difference. I don't intend to die

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Dark, trust me about the lotus monastery. You will have to go back there. You may have to give those notes or that book to a centaur first, but yeah.Shadowclaw Swamp is the one with the hedge-maid and stuff, btw. As the previous poster said, it's quite

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Hi !  As a necro mage cleric I can confirm that is a very nice class combo to play. I'm questing on the main land since I'm level 29-30 and it has worked rather well for me until now. Being carefull, I can even sollow in some areas intended for group

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Hmmm, the book just tells me to go and give it to  chief of the centaurs, but I've put in a bug report if it's a dangling quest line or similar, I did the lotus monastery quite some time ago so I don't think it's sending me there. As to shadowclaw swamp

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update See, I thought you were supposed to give the book to one of the centaurs in magnesia first, and then eventually to the scholar Bruticus up in the Lotus Monastery, but it's been awhile. No, you haven't completely buggered it. Absolute worst-case scenario

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update It is always, always going to get harder when you hit the mainland, but there are a lot of areas around Ralnoth that will work well if you're careful. And yes, she's necro-cleric-mage. Ideally you should be level 28-30 by the time you finish with all

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Necro cleric? Maybe I should rethink my strategy. Is the character necro cleric mage? That might actually work out a little better. I'd have more useful healing spells at this stage in the game. I'm still considering it. I love the first part

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update You'll only benefit your primary char in the sense that some gear is bound to account, and not to player, so the alt might find something your main can use. You can also use your main to carve for your alt, on all the bone and hide gear you'd be using

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I'd be interested to give necro a try, necro was my third class when I did cleric warrior and I had fun playing with the various minians, though as third class minians they didn't do that well. I actually wish there was a way to play an alt and yet

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I'm behind pretty much all of it. The only bit of this advice that I don't take on a regular basis is the bit about using gold to buy high-level offensive scrolls and going crazy. And even that is not bad advice, I just don't tend to do it. I tend

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Good thoughts @dark and @nocturnous. In fact dark, I mostly use spellstaffs for those control weathers myself. Also, one thing I love about spellstaffs is that if you have spellstaffs of, say, still air or thorn armor... you'd be a valuable asset

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Sprawling topic; I'll attempt to do it justice with humble words.1.  For those having trouble soloing, please consider using necro or druid as your first class, mage or cleric as your second, assuming you want to make it easy on yourself

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Good thoughts Kenzon. The holiday stocking is a really useful thing, I have it aside from my main weightless container, and now use it as a herb pouch. I still don't think I'd group an area and then solo later, but we'll see. since my focus is questing

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update Like many people had said here, grouping is not necessary. In fact, if you look at the quests list or areas list on the Alter aeon website, you'll find that many of the quests doesn't even involve hack and slash. Also, if you hate just being dragged

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update

Re: Alter Aeon September 2017 Update I agree with post 16. I'm not completely opposed to groups. It just gets annoying having to join large groups that just spend the entire time killing things. That's the main thing that irritates me. This game is mainly a hack and slash when you really
