Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi Haiden. Yes, the none stat reset is a bug. One thing Jason admits is that entombed sort of grew as it continued, and because some ideas weren't considered in the original creation of the game, this lead to bugs when they were introduced later. It's just a consequence of Entombed having grown far larger and more complex than anyone would have thought, and Jason does admit that if (and hopefully when), he begins on entombed Ii, he will make the initial architecture with a game more to a view of expanding and having new abilities and class types added later. It is an irritating thing that polymorphing was left half finished with the bug, but it doesn't ruin most of the game, or at least not for me. I believe the way scrolls work in the game is taking every spell and making it into a single use form, so when the final boss was intorduced, ray of destruction, unholy light and decrepid ash became a scroll, so I can understand how they got into the game and why they come up occasionally. GAther departed souls is I believe an ability not a spell, which is why it isn't a scroll. Again, just a consequence of the complexity of the game and the architecture being expanded, but not one that I think is too ruinous over all. Beware the grue!

The problem with shamans however is that the only races who can be shamans are goblins and ogres. Ogres don't make good shamans sinse their intelligence is so low and magic damage and amount of mana is based on intelligence, while goblinns are physically not strong as a class so make sure you have some healing methods handy if you go that route. Also be careful using the tribal totem to turn into a bear sinse as I remember there was a problem with the game resetting all your character's stats after they were morphed back to their initial values, which made them very ineffective. Necros are great. just keep ice blasting the drake in the noggin, though again look for ways to weaken him too. As to buying the game, I'd recommend it, it's got a full 25 floors and twice as many jobs and races, it'll take you hours to complete just the once and if you thik the drake is bad, wait until you see some of the bosses further down.

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi ward sir! I agree with your previous statement but if you or an another member can record a battle with drake then I can make my best stratagies. I know that the game generate random party members and map but If you use all of your magic after sometime you will lack the magic power. I used my best skill. for instance if I am a drued and my lightening is maximum and I repeatedly on the drake but still his I am not mangle his body parts. I don't expect any comment during the recording. Simply record the battle with drake and off the recording. well I have another question to entombed players.

The problem with shamans however is that the only races who can be shamans are goblins and ogres. Ogres don't make good shamans sinse their intelligence is so low and magic damage and amount of mana is based on intelligence, while goblinns are physically not strong as a class so make sure you have some healing methods handy if you go that route. Also be careful using the tribal totem to turn into a bear sinse as I remember there was a problem with the game resetting all your character's stats after they were morphed back to their initial values, which made them very ineffective. Necros are great. just keep ice blasting the drake in the noggin, though again look for ways to weaken him too. As to buying the game, I'd recommend it, it's got a full 25 floors and twice as many jobs and races, it'll take you hours to complete just the once and if you thik the drake is bad, wait until you see some of the bosses further down.

Hi Haiden. Yep, that is also true, particularly sinse the Ranger's archery skill applies to bows and arrows only and not to any other ranged weapon. Beware the grue! Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi Josh, Entombed hasn't been updated in three or four years, but it is still a pretty good game. However, now that Jason is busy with family etc I don't expect him to pop out a new update every year like he was doing at the beginning of the project when he had more personal time on his hands.

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi Ishen. I don't have a recording of the drake but I can give you some advice. The drake is big, tough, hard to damage, however he has one weakness. There is only one of him. My usual stratogy is to focus not on killing the drake with big attacks, but on stopping him killing me while I chip away at his health. So scrolls like sleep, weaken and slow, abilities like hide, Shrinking the drake and then knocking him over meaning he'll need to spend a turn standing, the mending and battle songs of the bard can all come in handy. Usually I have one character attacking the drake, say an assassin, a monk or a necro, one character handing out healing potions, and one character either using scrolls or acting a secondary attacker. It's hard to suggest without knowing your party, but basically focus on making your party strong and what abilities complement each other, for example, using the assassin's crytical hits and sneak attack, or the monk's iron skin, multiple attacks and unarmed. Dont' just try to go for big damage, but think in terms of tactics, try to make the drake lose and keep your own party going. Once, in an early version of entombed (and one where Jason rather over powered the drake), I defeated him by having a mage shrink the drake, grow my ogre brawler, then having the brawler continually use tackle on the drake keeping him on the ground. On another occasion, I got my wolf killed earlier on, then had my druid cast lightning thus leading to a zombie wolf on my side, who then bit the drake and rotted him to death (that was hilarious). Use everything and anything you have, scrolls, magic potions, weapons with interesting affects, and think carefully. If you just keep hitting attack attack, your bound to lose, it takes stratogy to kill the Drake. If worst comes to absolute worst, you can hear where the drake is, so go down the dungeon a few levels and then come back and deal with him with a stronger party. I've heard this is how some people deal with him, though I've never done that myself as to me dealing with the drake on level 8 where you find him is all part of the challenge of the game. Hth.

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hello Ishan, While I could probably record a battle with the Drake there is something you need to understand here about Entombed. There is no single strategy or set of skills you can use to beat the Drake. A lot of it takes practice, experience, and a bit of guess work because every single game is going to be different. So If I recorded a battle with the Drake right now, gave it to you, chances are your experience would be totally different. To start with your party changes from game to game. As a result my party will have different characters with different skills and will be able to base my strategy around their skills and skill levels. therefore if you have a different party, which you will, almost everything I do probably won't apply to your game. Also weapons and scrolls are different from game to game. I always plan my strategy as I go. I use whatever I have at hand weather it is a shrink scroll to make the Drake smaller, or a magic sword to do heavy damage, or something else I can't just say do x, y, and z because you probably won't have the same items I have. Bottom line, the game changes so much from game to game I don't think recording a battle will do you a bit of good. It will just be entertainment value, and won't really apply to your specific situation. What you need to do is basically focus what you have on his head, attack that, and hopefully go for a quick kill. Otherwise go down a few levels, build up your strength, and come back to fight the Drake later. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi Tom. That is true. Sorry it's been a while sinse I last played entombed, though i agree with your last post, it's the need to continually formulate ongoing stratogy and cope with what you find that makes entombed such an awsome game, imho that is far more interesting than just having to plan out everything and minimax and then have a boring hit attack as in most rpgs I've had access too. Actually I'd love to see more games take on this approach, throw things at you and have you judge how to deal with them, sinse it's a far more interesting way of playing.

Re: [Audyssey] a polite request.
Hi Dark, You forgot about the part where arrows are expendible, and replenishing them is a sometimes impossible task. Most monsters farther down in the dungeon are not equipped with bows of any sort, so collecting arrows is a rare or nonexistent venture.

The only problem with rangers is that ranged weapons suck at lower levels sinse the wooden arrows are so soft they do virtually no damage after you pass floor 15 or so. A shame really sinse your right, multishot is awsome, especially if you have cryticial hits or sneak attack. Beware the grue! dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
