I hope they'll patch in the option from Grimrock 1 to attack using the left-click.

After playing the game for 12 hours or so on Hard, I'm sort of failing to see the benefit of a farmer. I went with Ratling because my brain was like "gently caress yeah Mutation + Levels", but he's kind of an underperformer. Even with the huge glut of food everywhere early on, you're still effectively coming from two levels behind any other class in both HP/MP and in skills and you don't have any class perks to lean on. Even shoveling all the spare food I can find into his fat face and running the rest of my party on starvation rations he's still only a couple levels ahead, which basically just means he's on par with everyone else except I had to go out of my way to do things for him. It's a funny challenge class but I don't think it has merit over simply taking a battlemage for your jack of all trades position.

I kind of wish there was a difficulty level below easy. I'm getting my rear end kicked by any large monsters because I'm horrible at dancing around them, I just get all fumble-fingered in a stressful situation. This also makes a lot of time-based puzzles hard as hell to the point of frustration.

Is there any way to highlight or otherwise reveal items in view? I hope that I'm not being especially thick and haven't just missed a way to do so. I have a feeling I'm going to get very annoyed by pixel hunting for ammunition and thrown weapons. Especially since I keep kicking them instead of trying to pick them up. I haven't played a game like this since I was a kid playing dungeon master 2. It's funny how I actually had a longer attention span at 10 than I do now at 30. edit: Okay, so I am rather thick, simply walking over ammunition automatically picks it up. I'm still not particularly looking forward to more pixel hunting, though. Heithinn Grasida fucked around with this message at 13:32 on Oct 19, 2014 |

How I can complete the skyway in Ruins of Desarune? I just fall through it to lower level if it has missing pieces.

Ok, I'm missing a gem in the ruin/sewer area. I think I got two from the lexicon and I got one from beating the boss of the sewer. also is there really only letters in the archive? I can't find anything else but there should be something since it took a fair amount of effort to get in there

I actually bought LoG1 the day it came out, then never played it until I was bored and went to boot it up last night: Discovered LoG2 was already released and there's even a thread for it. I'm just going to buy LoG2 but not play it right away. The day I load up LoG2, you'll all have LoG3.

North Western section where there are 3x3 pits, 2 columns are closed but the middle column is open. How do I close that center column? (Make that the middle column and the north west pit as well -- I see it corresponds to the light above but just can't find a way to get that open) Disregard, need to play with things more.

RabidWeasel posted:Wouldn't it make sense to make your farmer a ratling so he can get tons of extra stats from Mutation, or is the extra exp for Humans really good for them? Assuming average mutation results and a level of almost 20 (not sure if that's possible), you're basically comparing ~10 accuracy, 25 hp, and 25 energy to 2-3 skill points. I'm a lot more concerned about getting enough skill points than I am the extra stats. Ratling wouldn't be a bad choice, though. I also just wanted to see what kind of ridiculous extreme I could get a farmer to by pushing as much exp at it as possible.

More stupid questions. Figured it out, that was dumb indeed. Also I'm at 3/4power gems for the central sleet island area. I grabbed the 2 from the crypt dungeon and 1 from the crypt itself. I already have the air/fire/earth essences. What am I missing? Theres nothing in the vault near the center shrine right? FrickenMoron fucked around with this message at 19:41 on Oct 19, 2014 |

Try exploring more in other areas. As for the vault near the shrine, it just contains items. BattleHamster fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Oct 19, 2014 |

In the castle finally but stuck on ... I think the 3rd level. Biggest thing I'm wanting to do though is fine the last 2 power gems. No idea where they might be either as I think I cleaned out just about every dungeon to my knowledge.

Another obtuse puzzle standing in my way, hint please: In the western Catacombs: there's a room you teleport into that has a 3x3 platform with trapdoors on all sides - there's a key(?) and a closed door opposite it. All but one of the trapdoors are open. When I first entered the room I took a look around and somehow triggered a change in which trapdoor was shut. But I have no clue what I did or how to replicate it to get at the key/door.
