Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

hahah, yea I did read about the level-scaling. I also forgot about that difficulty slide bar. I recall moving it to the right a good 25%, LOL i'm such a newb.

to the right? Dayam. That Game was already hard with the default settings for fights with some of the enemies. I had to put that slider to the left occasionally when I had to deal with creatures like Spider-Daedras. Well done.

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

i play it harder a bit. but i took my time and made a custom class for my style.

i have a khajit thief/assassin. strong stealth and AGI, good str and endurance, and lesser other stats. the only other 2 non combat skills i have that are main skills and leveled are security and stealth. i use the akavari katana as a sword vs live things and bloodthorn against undead and ghosts. i have this sick ass longbow and use silver arrows and some specail arrows that drop from a guy in wedeke. armorwise i usually have the outfit from the theives guild but i have upgraded to some serious shit from quests that i wont talk about as it will spoil some plotlines...

but seriously, everything GTA did for games, this game nearly perfected. i have never ever seen AI like this and the fact that every single character has thier own AI and random schedule is amazing. i robbed this guy's house and later on i found out he joined the dark brotherhood. simply amazing.the closing of the gates is tough as shit though.

HAS ANYONE FINISHED THE THEIVES GUILD? if so, dont spoil it for those wot didnt. but lemee know how cool the ending is., cuz i loved

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

well, my character is a THIEF birthstone and I went ARCHER. Although I haven't been able to find any bows. The best Bow I found was the Fine Iron(or steel, I forget), which was an improvement over the Steel Bow because it didn't weigh as much and had the same attach dmg.
Has anyone been to Goblin Jim's cave yet? It's north of Staingrin (or whatever) and its a nice dungeon.

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

staingrin? no clue there, maybe euro version has different names....

all the cities begin with A, B, or C outside of imperial city.

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

I'm sure you've heard of it, Its SW of Imperial City and its actually called Skingrad Directly north of it is the cave and it's pretty huge. If you talk to the Fighter Guilds in Skingrad they may rumor you about the cave or Jim himself. He's actually a human that has this undead summon and does invisible as well. I never beat him so it's why I ask. He carries a nice red axe so I'm wondering if its worth it =)

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

always worth it. ill help you out. when you get there. take all your shit off that dont help in melee. butput anything on that helps marksman. sneak mode. get as far away as you can in sneak with a directl line of fire. use silver arrows if you can get them and rifle off 2-3 arrows while you stay sneak. if you are good, he wont detect you until the second or third shot. keep firing at HIM, ignore his summon. when he starts running, charge at him, and use any scrolls or spells to damage him

I was there 2 days ago but did not kill Jim...well I did but went back to an older save game because I did not have a quest to kill him. Good to know it?s a quest from the Fighters guild. He is not hard to beat and his axe is useless (at least for my Level 27 battlemage)

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

hum on final fantasy 7, hard to kill ultima weapon.......but i did it hehe!! and also omega weapon!!

[Corven]

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

and im very looking forward for final fantasy 12

i'm currently playing that now armed with the online guide even though its the japanese version ... just couldnt wait for the english version to be released in oct-nov

the game has stunning gfx the best by far imo and with my limited understanding of japanese it has also the best game plot in the entire series imo ... just cant get enough of this game

i'll probably be getting the english version as well and play it all over again when it comes out

[Digger]

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

nice to heard that....till oc-nov damn that is way to much timeee....i want it now...but well....does it have an enemy as hard as the other? i think it does ....... like ultima weapon or something like that........is it have the same gameplay as FF7 & FF8 or is like FF10-2 that sux.....???

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

Fallout 2
Deus Ex

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

^^^ i havent gotten that far into the game yet but from what i read from the guide so far ... those standard hard as hell optional summon bosses are still there ... but the game itself is a totally different thing now with the new interface ... imagine it being a mashup of the old final fantasy interface and how a MMORPG works ... it sounds kinda weird and it does take awhile to get used to but once u're used to the new gameplay the entire game is pretty neat

Re: the [ms] rpg thread...

I'm big into WoW at the moment. I'll probably pick up Anarchy Online once I put XP on my computer though. Anyone played it? I'm also big into the Shadow Hearts series, which is on PS2. Highly underrated RPG imo. I'd like to pick up Chrono Cross one of these days along with FF8. Xenogears is another awesome game. I have yet to finish any of the Xenosaga series but they seem equally good.
