Just a comment on being a mage

You sure get your exercise in Terrant. I'm at about 50 in magic and can't use the subways at all. Thank the Lady for way points. Getting to see parts of the city I never really wanted to :smile: - Edythe

 

I never knew that mages couldn't use the subway. Still you can get the Teleportation spell, which is pretty damn handy. Sure beats walking everywhere...

 

I'm working towards Teleportation, but it takes a while. And, as I understand it, you can't use it in a city anyway, only on the world map. - Edythe

 

I never use the subways. It's just as quick to run, for me.
I didn't know Mages couldn't use subways, either.

 

Yeah, you can cast it in a city...it then just takes you to the world map, click on a known location, and there you go :smile:.

Conveyance is a very useful college of magick.

 

Mages with hight level of magic or than party with lots of magic items cannot use the subway or the trains to travel to blackroot or ashbury.

 

If you have the dog you can't use the train either :sad:.

So now, I just walk everywhere with my characters, unless I teleport :smile:. The items and experience you can pick up along the way are worthy compensation :smile:.

 

OK I feel stupid

I never knew the subways could be used at all. What do you do to use them?

 

Highlight them and you should get a menu of different places in Terrant, like the Vermillion Station, the Docks, etc. Choose one, pay your 5 coins, and off you go. Does save a lot of walking time. And if you highlight them they will show up on your map as well. - Edythe

 

to travel around tarant. Just klik on the booth, and you can go to pecific points in tarant, it really cuts the unecessary running around

 

Nothing like jumping from Tarant University to the Boil...they should have made a quest, where you have to use the subway to get away...

 

Personally... I played the hell out of this game and i must say..walking arond is by far the most annoying aspect of the game. I think however, the fact that mages have teleport definatley more than makes up for their inability to use the subway. Once oyu hit 50..just walking across the map is a complete chore..especailly since oyu dont realyl get any mroe exp. There should be a game function that allows higher level mages and techies to get around faster..like a scooter or techies and a "hasten run " spell or something for the mages..i dunno..just an idea

 

There should be some sort of "scooter" with a gyroscope in it so you don't fall off. With a lamp in front. Powered by Richard Gere on a treadmill.

 

Yeah. Maybe we need Segway in Arcanum. Travel for a full day on only 5 cents of electricity!

Or just one of Sheriff Fatman's Locomunator's (is that spelt right?) :smile:.
