For me, having to haste each and every character individually detracts from both the game playability and my enjoyment of it.
Or did I miss something?
I've played Ave 4 all the way through once. I loved it, and will come back and play it again sometime soon.
Puhlease, bring back the group haste for Ave 5!
Thanks for any comments/replies!
Rod of Alacrity and Group Haste Scrolls are in A4. Some are spoils of battle, some custom construction, some you just find or buy. It's close to the same with Mass or Group Bless with Scrolls, drinking from basins, NPC's blessing group. There are 2 Mage Shields and 1 Priest Shield for Group.
Hope this is helpful. I've never played A? but I think the same basic abilities are there, just in a different form.
Thanks for your reply!
I am aware of the occasional haste group scroll or wand that's out there. It is very limiting, though, and not remotely the same as having a character or two who can cast it repeatedly. From a tactical standpoint, it means that your most powerful character (your mage) has to use 2 full turns, possibly 2.5, just to get everyone in your immediate party hasted. I understand that group haste is a very powerful spell, but rather than eliminating it altogether (which doesn't make a lot of sense from the perspective of the storyline, imho) perhaps it could be limited to two squares away, or the spell points required could be raised (e. g. costing 6 points for each character hasted).
Again, losing this capability won't make me stop playing, or spending my money on the Ave 5, but it is something which I miss. Badly.
Am I just whining? Does anyone else out there want goup haste/major blessing back into the magical repetoire of the player's characters?
I know that I'm just a new guy in the forums here, but I've been playing these wonderful games for a very long time.
Again, any comments/replies are appreciated.
