Fledgling Fyora TGD Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I'm probably missing something simple, but I can't see where I can use scarab abilities such as "Spine shield for 3 turns" or "Battle frenzy for 5 turns" etc. The instructions very briefly allude to the fact that you can activate these abilities in the abilities dialog window. But none of these abilities appear in my abilities dialog window (I've checked my character with and without the scarabs, and nothing changes). On another note, whenever my sorceress character casts Daze, nothing happens - no indication of whether the targets resisted or were affected. Even very low level targets are never affected. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 The scarabs need to be equipped while on the main level of Avadon in one of the 4 scarab slots in inventory mode under the character picture. When you use the ability window they appear as the bottom row of abilities, u through x. Daze acts on the enemies nearest the caster and they have a chance to resist. Dazed monsters should have a slight change in color and when you move the cursor over them you can see their status. Welcome to Spiderweb Software. Please leave your sanity at the door.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Soul of Wit Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Also, there is a known bug with Daze (and Cloud of Confusion) at level 2. This will be fixed in the next revision. The workaround is to add another level. Once it is at level 3, you will be fine.

Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Just to double check, you have the scarabs installed in the scarab slots, right? They aren't like charms that work from your inventory. Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish terra Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 yep, in the scarab slots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 And there's nothing at the very bottom of the abilities screen? (Some of the scarab ability icons are always grayed out, but they still work.) Sounds like a bug. Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Scarabs that are passive abilities like increased resistances and stats don't show up in the activity window. Active scarabs show up in the bottom row of the activity window and you click on them to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish terra Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 the only place i see scarabs is in the inventory screen. in the ability window, I'm missing several letters c,d,i, and the ones that are supposed to represent the scarabs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Is the bottom row of the ability window completely blank? It won't actually show you the scarabs, just the abilities that they give you. (So for example, the teleportation scarab's ability will just show up as Teleport.)
