Bleu posted:I'd recommend players change the tileset, incidentally, because the original one is pretty jaggy-lookin'. I use this one from the 4chan Pastebin dump - just overwrite the picture in /graphic in the elona+ folder. The interface is nice, too, because it has little sisters. Which, I guess, is sufficient for a big dumb baby like me. I see there is Kaneda's bike as a pet. The game has lots of references.

I tried to read a book and now my home is taken by a bunch of high level monsters

I'm doing way better now with the advice I got in the thread now, got a cozy house, a storage house and a farm in full tilt. And I let myself get the "Rain follows you" ether disease trait on purpose which actually helps my farming out loads. Now I just have to figure out how to raise all my potentials from their abysmal states.

If you're rich you can buy potions of potential from souvenir vendors and then bless them and drink them all at once. Otherwise, eat good food.

Hey, you guys all know that you can allocate skill points, right? I mention this because no one I've thrown this game at figured it out until I told them, usually by the time they had like 100 saved up. The skill points raise potential too. This should really be in the OP.Bholder posted:I tried to read a book and now my home is taken by a bunch of high level monsters Well even the tutorial tells you not to do that. The new interface is cute but I doubt I'd ever remember what all those little icons mean. e. The faq totally lies and you can totally release Ebon during the Festival of Jure. I got so much free poo poo. Corridor fucked around with this message at 23:34 on May 14, 2013 |

I just had a long battle with Zeome. He killed all my pets except my King, which I had just summoned at my ranch prior to the fight, and my Fallen Angel, who despite being level 42 kind of sucks. I managed to get Zeome down to almost no health and he began to run away. This happened multiple times and each time he would heal up to somewhere around a quarter of his health. Finally, he ran into a corner and out of sight. I give chase and next thing you know I get a some sort of victory message. Zeome ran to a far corner of the room, overcast his heal and died.

I wonder what would happen if he were to meet an unfortunate accident. Would the same thing apply to the other two guilds?

The wiki says that if the guild guards die, the incognito scroll thing doesn't work downstairs. e. And I can't test it because he KOs me in two hits. I don't wanna join a guild, I like that all the trainers come to my house.

Corridor posted:I don't wanna join a guild, I like that all the trainers come to my house. This is pretty fair. You could always just wish for the skills you're missing and then ignore the other benefits. Verviticus posted:I don't think being blessed does anything, does it? I've definitely seen improvements going from a normal portable tool to a blessed one when at lower skill levels. Miijhal posted:Give it the Blood Moon. At that point even bosses are hosed since the moment they reach 0 MP they start taking insane amounts of damage from overcasting. It actually has the <Scythe of Void> and a miracle sniper rifle, so it's still pretty hilarious to watch in action. I like to think it's balanced because even then it can't survive a single 80-90 dungeon level.

So if you learn all the normal non-guild skills, the blessed scroll will always give you a guild skill. This has changed in Elona+, where blessed scrolls of growth now give you an extremely substantial (20-30%?) boost to all your skill potentials. Mostly because I've been reading every single one I can get to keep my potentials sky-high. e: I'm pretty sure you're thinking of 'gain attribute', not 'growth'.

He might be wearing a piece of no-teleport gear, you could try learning Pickpocketing and steal it off him. I haven't tried it in Elona+, but the fastest way to train pickpocketing in vanilla was to get your strength high enough to where you could go into the snowy wilderness and steal trees out of the ground.

Might be a bit wasteful, though; it's probably better to get some form of incognito, teleport away the guild guard, then break in and cast it. Then get the skill and bail, because they get angry again once incognito wears off.

This entire conversation spawned from the discussion that the guard could not be teleported away. (Theoretically because he has an item that prevents teleport)

Reallycoolname posted:Then get the skill and bail, because they get angry again once incognito wears off. Guild members don't care if your incognito wears off so long as you activated it after you went down the stairs, unless you do something dumb like save and reload while inside the guild. No I totally haven't done this and been obliterated for it, what are you talking about?

Grinding Faith up to where you can get the final rewards would take a long time, so keep some gear around that "makes you more pious" to swap to while offering things.

I throw a farm down next to Godville. It lets me farm things right next to it for Kumiromi, and you can use it as ghetto storage for other gods if you wanted, I guess. Note that the random furniture counts towards your item limit, so if you want to store things go around and pick up all the trees and scarecrows and leave them in the wilderness.

Since my first guy is a farmer, logically I choose my second character to be a chicken... Chickens start with anatomy, martial arts, eye of mind and greater evasion. This is not as hilarious and jokey as I thought it'd be. Fake Edit: Oh BS. You still have the basic human sprite? That's way less awesome than I was hoping.
