A little tip: If you get a notification about someone getting assassinated by an unknown hand while you're in town, it might be worthwhile to find the body. You can easily find unique figurines/cards and decent gear off them. You can also cook the corpse and eat the delicious manflesh.Office Thug posted:How do you survive combat in this game? The minute a kobold gets beside my warrior dude with 60 health I get completely hosed up in a split second. Kobolds will gently caress you up early game due to their ridiculously high damage output. Use ranged weapons or let your pet handle them.

To just save time after the third time it didn't work, I've just savescummed about 50 explosions to no success. Maybe this one can't die anymore? edit: yeah, I just can't kill the person with the dagger. Might she have spawned with some extra special armor or something?

Stay the gently caress away from kobolds. Even if you've got good gear and you're wrecking poo poo otherwise, you will prolly get your butt cheeks handed to you. Just stay back and let your pets take care of it.

I've decided to roll a spellcaster and it's extremely annoying to try to get magic vendors to sell me the spellbooks I need. Is there a trick to it? I need more elemental bolts and magic darts.

So, I used a scroll of inferior material on a happy bed and made it raw... Should I eat it? Will it give me super sleeping powers or something? Or is it better to keep it?

Keep it. Though having any material at all will make it a bit better for sleeping or at least more expensive for house rank. I'm pretty sure the only time you get anything from eating raw items is that you train stats the item grants and get about a day long buff to the potential of any stat they maintain. dis astranagant fucked around with this message at 23:52 on May 2, 2013 |

They're only dangerous to newbies with no health, PV, or damage. http://elona.wikia.com/wiki/Bell_of_emergency will wreck your loving poo poo, however. 1455 speed means if you're riding the horse you can buy at level 30, he still gets 7 turns for everyone 1 of yours. I tried to land some hits on one, and he killed 4 of my pets in 3 turns, and he was able to close the gap and kill me when I used my rod of teleport. Jesus christ. Edit: I had 560 hp at the time.

Do gardening quests, and other things that raise your strength. Do mining to raise your constitution. Get a ranch, put a horse in it, then when he makes more horses KILL ALL THE HORSES, AND DEVOUR THEIR HORSEMEATS Learn Riding and Traveling, which will improve your will. Drink a blessed potion of restore body (pretty common and cheap from magic vendors) to temporarily buff your con/str by 5 + 10% for 12 months of time. Get some levels (don't do this just for hp, but when it happens you'll get beefier) Improve your life (this acts as a global multiplier on your hp total. If you have 110 life, you have 10% more hp than a "normal" person at 100 life). This is hard, but you can wear Rubynus equipment for +3 per piece. If you can kill Big Daddy's (if you're asking the question you probably can't for a long time) then the sisters that spawn after the BD dies can give you +1 life permanently. Edit: Get a Maid for your house so you can receive visitors. Sometimes you get Guild Trainers who will improve your stat potential for 3p or 4p. Join the fighter's guild to always get the Fighter's guild trainer who will let you train Constitution (always train constitution) Find, bless, and quaff potions of potential to train all your stats (expensive / rare)

Well that's annoying. Elona+ makes Elona unable to read diagonal inputs from a controller, breaking the radial menu. Anyone have any idea if this can be fixed?

What's the best way to find / make Rubynus gear? I'd really like to get a piece (or upgrade a piece of equipment) to rubynus for my bells, but have yet to see one. I've even tried superior mat scrolls, but none have worked. In other news, I was tickled by the new feature in Elona+ where certain enemies ask to join you after you kill them. I have the Mad Scientist now hanging out with me. Although, he'll most likely be gene fodder as he's a wizard base that has no spells.

It's one of the very top end materials so you'll have to go through a million scrolls just like dragon scale. I've seen it fairly frequently in level 50+ shops, especially black markets that have been leveled to full capacity (about 4500, don't do this if you aren't made of money)

I'm sitting at $150k right now with no plans for it, so I can throw that into a shop. My main goals for now are all gear / pet based, so money really doesn't do a whole lot for me. Things on my to do list: 1. Collect enough medals to buy Diablo (doing this through dungeon clearing as opposed to set medals) 2. Collect even more medals for another rod of domination 3. Dominate an Asura 4. Give Asura Diablo, and crazy equipment so that he can tank for my murderbells 5. Profit

Nukes deal a flat 1000 damage (I think), he had armor that bumped him up over 1000 hp. You miiiiiight be able to kill him if you set off two nukes on turns right after each other.

Just had a night in my glasswork happy bed - treasure map dream, and two "gains potential". I don't think it's possible to get much better than that. And rather than having a target to hit with dumping plat into skills - I'm just going through and leveling up everything that's below 40% potential, then once that's all trained, 50%, etc... Gotta train that swimming skill!

So yeah, even with JoyToKey, Elona+ is unplayable with a gamepad. You can't use the radial menu with the in-game settings and it's too hypersensitive to input from JoyToKey. Also opening your inventory and firing crashes the game. Welp, there goes my motivation to play.

You're best off using the keyboard. Really. Even with the base game, gamepad control was terrible.

Oh man this game is so fun with Elona+. I'm a Yerles or whatever the gently caress Gunner with a +18 tohit machinegun  . I also have the Yerles machinegunner slave, a random warrior to tank, and a little girl with basically all my dungeon loot thrown on all of those three. I quickly started out damaging the machinegunner, but he's still ridiculously useful, spraying death from afar.Maybe it helped that I learned that slaves were a thing, idk.

You don't really need to use all the buttons even on a keyboard - you can get by for most of the game using z, x, tab, g (I think) and enter. It'll be dirt-slow but you can do it.

Aw gently caress yeah, I love Elona. I never managed to do anything significant or get far in the plot despite my many hundreds of hours, but the insanity kept me playing. Time to reroll my starey little bald green baby wearing a potato sack, and try out Elona+. Is rod of dominion the only way to get bells? I tried so many times to capture one with a pokeball and they just have too much crazy evade. And then they vanish on you. e: Also you can change your Little Girl sprite to be like an editable character sprite. I gave mine a ballgown, blue pigtails, and eyepatch. e2: The Elona+ "click here to download" button sends me to 404

I tried Elona+ last night and it quickly became clear that, yep, I still have no goddamn clue what I'm doing in this game. It was fun rampaging around as Freddy Mercury with a glass machinegun and somehow causing a random innkeeper to go insane by prostituting myself to her though. Also some guy's armour stand was made of rawwork and I ate it secretly while he wasn't looking and then my little girl drank some dude's vomit and then fell down a well and died.

Yes it is. I can't remember how to farm the good things, like rare scrolls, wishes, etc, or how to get money faster than singing to people in party time quests. Saw a monster on the wiki called a Mra, looks like it'd make an awesome mount but I have no idea where to find one. It's level 174, so I guess my best bet is to just find a really high level dungeon and keep on going in and out til one spawns?

For rare scrolls, invest in magic stores. For high level wands of wishing, invest in goods stores. Money ends up being a combination of dungeon delving (40k for completing a level 25 dungeon, ish) and a high level shop, not to mention making the big bucks on quests once you can handle high difficulty Beauty and the Beast runs. quote:Saw a monster on the wiki called a Mra, looks like it'd make an awesome mount but I have no idea where to find one.
