DBear (Guest) (53 posts) Jan-01-06, 09:36 PM (Pacific) "level guide for Wiz7 (Gold)" I was wondering if there was a general guide or rule as to what level a party should be before tackling certain areas. My game so far--game on normal difficulty: Killed Ra-Sep-Re-Tep on level 3. Freed Captain Beauregard on level 7. Got the map from Old City on level 8. That is where my crew is now, and we're trying to take on Orkogre Castle. I'm finding the Gorn Ashigaru somewhat difficult, but beatable. I do get tired of running back and forth to the fountain in Starter Dungeon, but I have little alternative at this point. Oh, and my crew--my Lord of the Rings party: Aragorn--Human Lord Gimli--Dwarf Fighter Legolas--Elf Ranger Frodo--Hobbit Thief Gandalf--Human Mage Galadriel--Elf Psionic (I took her along because I wanted to have one female in the party, plus have access to all 4 schools of magic.)   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: level guide for Wiz7 (Gold)" Luckily, most every city in the game is layered in such a way that the introductory part of the town is easily beaten, while the rest of it may potentially be out of reach difficulty-wise. In that respect, you can go just about anywhere you wish. New City is easy all over. The vast majority of the top level of Munkharama is easy as well. The lower level can have some pretty nasty battles with cruds and Dark Forest Munk, but having the spell Fireball pretty much nullifies all of them. Orkogre Castle can be tough if you are unlucky enough to be attacked by those Ashigaru, or Gorn Lords/Shamans. Otherwise, it's not too bad either. Ukpyr's just filled with birds and ghosts, no biggie. Nyctalinth is moderately difficult on the top level with T'Rang Keepers and Guarders, but the Church area can be quite difficult. The insects in there are mean, and I would recommend training before you take them on. The Rattkin Ruins are tough, especially the back fourty and the Funhouse. The halls and forests are crawling with deadly Rattkin like Razuka, Ronin and Hunters. I would recommend having high skills and levels before venturing there. The Dane Tower is cleanly separated into floors of ascending difficulty. Having the Silence spell nullifies the challenge up until you start fighting High Fathers near the top. The City of Sky is way far ahead of where you are, and by the time you reach it, the mean fights in there will be no prob... same for the Isle of Crypts and for the Sea, which requires a jaunt through the difficult Rattkin Ruins to (legitimately) get the boat to sail it. More than levels, I believe skills count as a true indicator of progress. Having 100 Sword, 100 Oratory etc... increases survivability a lot better than 3 more Strength. The extra life you get from levelling, however, cannot be replaced. If you're having trouble, smack some Bitterbugs around and get your skills up. Take care of Gimli, now. He's my favorite character.

DBear (Guest) (53 posts) Mar-03-06, 10:46 PM (Pacific) 2. "RE: level guide for Wiz7 (Gold)" Just thought I'd update my progress: My crew are now level 14 (around 1.6M XP). We've cleaned out Orkogre, Munkharama including the secret temple and Land of Dreams, the first 5 levels of Dane Tower, and Ukpyr plus surrounding forests. We also freed Jan-Ette and found the treasure n of the Munkharama bridge. Gimli is a killin' machine with that axe. He also has Powerstrike. Right now we're exploring the forests in the nw just to build up levels before we decide which to tackle next-- the rest of Dane Tower, Nyctalinth, or Rattkins. I killed the spies outside Ukpyr, so I'm expecting a hostile reception committee from the T'rang. My crew are maxed out on swimming. Gandalf has access to 6th level spells (took Firestorm last time), Galadriel has 5th level spells, but Aragorn and Legolas aren't as developed magically as they should be--too much time on the front lines, I guess.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
