well thats good to know now that I've gotten my two main guys up to 8 or 9 toughness.

mainly because the rats I've faced all get two attacks a round? If I get attacked by a single creature its not an issue, when there are more than one, unless I'm going to drain my spell points every battle, I'm not likely to kill them all in one round, which means they get an attack in, which in the case of rats is two attacks a round seemingly doing 35 or so damage total, just seems to me that hardiness and armor should have more effect than that.

Quote: Usually waiting till your strong/armed well enough is the way to deal with early 'uber' bad guys. I'm not referring to bosses, I"m referring to things like say..rats, which seemingly at levely 8 can attack my guys twice and almost kill them, even though they've got 50 armor and 8 hardiness. Hitting twice they still do say 35 damage. I understand bosses can be hard, but I'm finding that after run of the mill enemies, unless there is a single one I can gang up on, my tanks really take a beating, and I have to spend the fight healing them, and then healing them when its done. I'm only playing on normal.

So how exactly does the comabt system work? dexterity makes you harder to hit, but its vague on how much harder. Does armor reduce the chance to hit you, the damage your take, or both, and by how much? is there any point in wearing good armor? The penalties to hit are huge, and can easily add up to like -50% or more it seems. I ask because I have a situation where I have a belt. 2% armor +1 dex. i also have another belt which is 6% armor, but I have no idea which one is really better as far as protection goes. and honestly..what is up with the uber enemies that trash you with every hit ? even with lots of armour and 8 or 9 toughness..hardiness...

What about camping? Its terribly frustrating to have to walk all the way back to town to be able to replenish. camping with the chance of random encounters before was great.

so for that 10 rat quest, are there any rats that aren't around the city? I've completely explored everything I can find, short of the mine and that wizard with all the undead, and for the life of me, I'm at 8 rat tails. I've checked my map for unexplored sections and unless its behind a high lock pick door (for me 8 or more) then I can't imagine where these other 2 rats are.

well I saw something, somewhere long ago... going by the name 'exile online' and had screenshots that looked identical to exile..whether or not it was that I dunno.

that would probably explain jeff not being happy with it. Its one thing to fix a bug, its another to change the game entirely.

Yep, which is why I was having so much trouble finding this It was really a LONG time ago, but I remember it clearly. I can't recall how I found the game (likely through mpogd.com or a similar site) but I can't seem to find a trace of it now.

Quote: Originally written by Prince Albert in a Can: Kaimorad was a fixed BoE. Jeff was not happy to hear about it. what do you mean by fixed BoE? I didn't know it was broken?

if the mud was text based, no i'm not..this was seemingly an online version of exile using the same graphics. [edit]From all my searching, I'm fairly sure this is a dead project now... when I saw this it was upwards of like 3-4 years ago at least... (its just so tough to search because exile is such a popular name)
