Uh guys, have you all noticed if you go in the area where Jared is (near Vermillion station you get a -20(I think) shift in your magick aptitude. And if you get past It you regain your aptitude plus a +5 shift. Don't worry though, If you go far away from that area your normal aptitude returns... Ive tried it with and without the patch. It's nothing really, I just want to know if someone encountered this, and if so, don't worry, it will return to Normal when you leave Tarant, don't go crazy over it like me. Heh, Ive reloaded 8 times coz my elven mage lost all 15 magick aptitude and get a +5 tech aptitude, Ive reinstalled the game to see whats wrong but then nothing...So I just wander off and regin my aptitude plus a +5 adjustment which I though was permanent, how wrong was I...=) P.S. Will there be a new patch?? I hope they could trace the reason why the fate point in the schuyler's quest is random.. And also the level cap shouldn't be reached too early, I believe I can reach it before going to the BMC... Oh well, I can hope can I? =) _________________ "After all is said and done, there is far more said than done." <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Skie88 on 2001-09-18 04:59 ]</font>
My guess regarding the thing with Vermillion station. Is that it´s the close procsimity(spelling?) of the steam train that enfluences your magical ability. Any one know if I´m right on this?
yup i have a tiny little mage, but isn't there some magic spells which jack with your magic or tech aptitude in an area? and i know i've read something in the manual or on some other links about areas with magical resistance or flux... this would make sense.. they ward off magic a bit near the train.. that's all. i think its intentional and not a fluke. and shouldn't effect you, unless you're looking for bonus' on your spells just outside of that area so you can kill everyone in tarant from that position... hmmm... ponder...
The answer is "YES" there are different levels of magick/tech bias in different places. This does have the effect of making your magick/tech affinity fluctuate.
