Garrulous Glaahk Snowwhite Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I finished the game. Certainly this is the longest Avernum game I can recall. Great value for sure. Still I have one issue: I play on normal. I don't even try a harder setting. But...I don't understand how I can play through an entire game on normal relatively easily and get so massacred in two battles at the end that I have to go to casual. The arena killed me as did Garzhad. Other than that I had a lot of fun. Would love to know what I have been doing wrong in this game. I used the 4 characters that were already built. Anyway, that you all who helped me when I was lost. See you at Avernum 3 redo. Snot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Painted Lady Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's pretty much been my experience that Jeff makes the final battle (plus maybe another one or two) much more difficult than the rest of the encounters. Don't know why, but that seems to be a pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be time to just lower the difficulty. Jeff really dropped the ball on lowering the hit rate, imo. There is a reason games like World of Warcraft have totally abandoned hit rating for a flat level rate--- it sucks when you have an 87% chance of hitting something but miss three times in a row. I'm still playing though, so clearly Jeff got more than a few things right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk stranger Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Don't worry about that, some of the encounters are just much more difficult. Since you say you've had a lot of fun, you haven't been doing anything wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
