Dark Elf, you're probably right. Take Perriman Smythe, for example. He should be a game changer since he can cast spells like Blur Sight and...
1. Elves are my favorite. But maybe that's because I used to play a lot of persuasive mage characters. 2. Half-Orcs: I have gotten really...
I collect gems too. I'm also obsessed with even numbers, so I tend to not sell them for extra cash unless I have an odd number of emeralds (or...
Totally. If you're Raised by Monks and you spent your life in quiet meditation and study, you don't turn into a bad ass shaolin monk with Melee...
Army Training can be cool because you get a small bonus to Melee that makes it easier to get up to Expert training (you only need to spend two...
I was thinking of alchemy, which is sometimes portrayed as involving some real chemistry along with the magic. Magic users are often portrayed as...
You can use guns with a really low Magickal Aptitude (like, 10 or less) without crippling yourself or something, so that would probably be a...
I think the way it works is that each tech item or skill raises your Technical Aptitude by 5.5 (rounded up to the nearest whole number as...
I know what you mean. Some of the magical maces are pretty decent weapons, but I tend to use them more as a source of free mana instead of trying...
I don't consider Stillwater early in the game. You're supposed to go the Isle of Despair and a bunch of other places first and you'll probably be...
The only problem with the blessings and magical items is that you'll probably have to wait until you've been playing for a while to take advantage...
I found the racism against half-orcs pretty annoying too. With one character, I finally got fed up and spent a point on Beauty just to avoid...
How about a whip for fans of Indiana Jones and/or Castlevania? Also, it might be fun to have a cestus and other things to improve one's...
No. But I read one of the Shadowrun novels a long time ago and it seemed like a fun campaign setting. That book featured, among other...
Me too. I understand the racial penalty in Arcanum, but the idea of being a Legolas-type character with a .50 caliber rifle instead of a bow is...
It isn't really bullshit, but it drives me nuts anyway... I just did the quest to get the Bow of Ecclesiastes for Kietzel Pierce again. And it...
I agree about Tolkien hating cities. I'm not completely sure I agree about the racism. Although it is a problem that orcs are actually supposed...
You speak much truth. Tolkien elves sometimes created cool magic swords and things (like cloaks that change color and what amounts to enchanted...
That seems like something out of somebody's Tolkien fan fiction, since it basically presents a counterargument to ideas that are used to explain...
It's normal. But you may be in trouble, depending on whether or not you need to talk to people in Tarant about quest-related stuff. Like Xyle...
