  1. I've managed to use my stealth skills to get the ring of puresteel. Obviously I have better stealth skills than i imagined. I didn't think I'd do as good as I did. :-). Anyway, its a shame that the canister wasn't that good. Was hoping It'd be a Drayk or something. But that was made up for in the Rebel camp when buying the canisters from Jared. Anyway, I think I have it covered from here on. Thanks guys.
  2. That was my suspicion. I tried going there until i realized the creations there had over 500 HP, and then ran for my life Lol. Well, 'cause I'm eager to find out what the last canister gives you, I'm going to give it a try for stealth.
  3. So far I have found a puresteel ring in Rivergate Keep, and another one in the Sandros Mine. But where is the other one. I've search nearly all of Illya Province?
  4. Alright, due to the fact I can't find a way to post my pictures my posts, you'll have to view all my pictures from SkyDrive links. At least for the meantime. Until an SpderWeb forum expert can tell me how to post pictures in my posts. So this is how I set up my Guardian at the start. https://skydrive.liv...4D65B0C2D91!160 Basically i only maxed out my Anatomy and Quick Action to 10. Two very important skills for the Guardian. And here is the Intro Page 1 https://skydrive.liv...4D65B0C2D91!161 Page 2 https://skydrive.liv...4D65B0C2D91!162 Page 3 https://skydrive.liv...4D65B0C2D91!163 Now, I won't go through the tutorial with you and stuff. I'm assuming most of you know what goes on. But for those who have never played Geneforge 1, I'll be brief. So basically you land on the southwest coast of the island, making your way through certain buildings trying to find out where you are exactly. You also find a canister. Canisters are the things that give you abilities on the island They are all over. This on you find gives you firebolt (damage spell) ability. There are two other canisters in the tutorial areas as well. (Heal and Create Fyora [first fire creation]) Then after many messages that teach you how to play, and other crap, you cross the other side of a Quaratine Hall and meet a servile named Timo, and he directs you to the Village Vakkiri. And I'm gonna play through Vakkiri, talk to a load of people, and have more screenshots for you guys. And a list of quests I grabbed as well. Until next time. Cmiller
  5. There is no difference. LGoWI just a different way of saying LP. . Anyway, since no one has came in and asked what class they'd want me to be, I'll go ahead and choose myself. I've decided to play as a Fire Shaping Guardian. Do not frieght, there will still be many, many choices later down the road, Now then, Let's Get on With It!
  6. Despite the earlier thread I posted about Geneforge 2 Torment Style (I will finish, just not this month or probably even the next...sorry ), I'm gonna do a text based LGoWI (Let's Get on With It!) of Geneforge 1. Now I do understand there is already a Let's play of Geneforge going on right now in these forums. But when I saw Shogo's post about a "text-based" LP, i just couldn't resist. So here i am, its going to be done. But before I start I'll set some ground basics on what's going on. In this LGoWI Geneforge the First, I will be playing through the entire game. However, instead of me making all the choices, I want to let the people of Spiderweb Forums to make the choices. You guys get the honor of telling me what to do (Isn't that great!). That means you get to choose what Class I'll be, which faction I'll join, and who's side I should join. Do you want me to beat the little guys to a pulp, or do you want me to be a hero and save the day? Or perhaps you just want to kill everyone. Or maybe I should be ignorant and join no one's side. Or maybe i can be the little wuss who runs away. Its all up to you. But for now, just tell me what class you guys want me to be, and what my character should specialize in (e.g. A mental magic Agent.) Once we have that done, I'll start this LGoWI Geneforge the First! Cmiller P.S. I promise I'll finish the other thread Geneforge 2 Torment style. I may work on it while I do this one. P.S.S WARNING: Many Spoilers Lay Ahead!!!!
  7. A text based LP. Hmmm...you've just gave me an awesome idea Shogo. Thanks!
  8. Hey guys, i just thought I'd throw this out there, Do you think the final boss will be as, let's say, painful as it was in the first Avadon.
  9. I was thinking more my computer is too advanced for the old Geneforge's. My Windows 7 is more low-ended than the windows 8, and it works a hecka lot more efficient than my new laptop
  10. I just recently bought my new Windows 8 laptop. Then a couple of days later installed the Geneforge series. And now i'm realizing how slow it is :-P. The character and enemies lag a lot on the screen and it takes a long time for the engine to process the next round. Is there anyway to make this game go faster on my Windows 8 laptop. ~Cmiller
  11. Thanks man your Awesome! Request: Can a moderator combine these two posts. I realized Halt's request to delete his posts, but now it makes me look like I've been double posting. Thanks (as of Jan 29, 2013 4:49 PM)
  12. Please also give the ability to add coins too.
  13. Another thing I forgot to add you should let it add coins too
  14. This is pretty awesome! It would be even more awesome if the editor lets you add important game items such as, quest items, forge materials, weapons, sheilds, armor, you get the idea.... Also, the experience modifier is way to slow. Perhaps if you did something like what crockile did with his editor in G1. Let people choose how much experience they'd like to add. I hope this input helps. Thanks Halt, Cmiller
  15. The download was denied by uploader? I can't download it
  16. I'm finally done with the Demo. Great! Now that i am across Freegate, I'll update you on my stats and give a breif summary of what i did in the demo part of the game. My stats are as follows: Guardian level 12 Strenght - 3 Dexterity - 2 Intelligence - 1 (1 point loss from Thahd skin tunic) Endurance - 4 Melee Wep - 5 (2 pts from Thahd skin tunic) Missle Wep - 9 Quick Act. - 5 Parry- 7 No Magic Skills Fire Shaping - 1 Battle Shaping - 1 Magic Shaping - 0 Healing Craft - 2 Leadership - 8 Mechanics - 12 Luck - 1 (from Lucky Charm found in Drypeak mines). And Abilities: Create Fyora - 2 Create Artilia - 2 Firebolt - 1 Daze - 3 War Blessing - 3 Protectiion - 2 Minor Heal - 3 Cure Effects - 3 Essence Sheild - 1 Okay, so as you can, i spent most of my skill points raising only Leadership and Mechanics. I did this mainly so I won't have to worry about them any more. I figure I'll get an extra point in Missle weapons, pump Dexterity more, then aim for my goal of Magic Shaping 10 (yeah, i'm switching back; there will be no battle shaping). I also managed to get a Thahd skin tunic from one of thahds running around in the Crags. I punked Wyx out of his Pure Cyrstal, cleared the Drypeak Mines, turned in the Escaped Servile and Sencia (maybe not too late to change my ways ), and killed a crap load of rogues (okay, a little to over dramatic )! As for the Saltmarsh, well let's just say things were a little...difficult. Because this was on torment I had to really watch myself. So instead of fighting I took the stealth/dimplocy route instead. I walked along the eastern most side of the map and headed north, the headed west into the camp where bretta was. I convinced her to leave and so there was no fight. I will probably fight the remainlng rogues once I have more parry. I also managed to go through a lot of missle weapons while clearing all these areas. I'm down to near 5 steel javelins and have absolutely no cyrstal left, and there were very few venom thorns in the demo area (sorry, but I'm too good for the "regular" thorn baton). Fortunately there will be plenty of thorns for me later. And javelins will eventually be of no use to me before to long as there will be better weapons. Now only one can wait to see what happens next . I will further update you Geneforge fans once I've done some dirty work for the serviles in Medab. Well, until next time guys. Cmiller
  17. Just to give an update on where I'm at. I finished the woods full of rogues and cleared all the drypeak mines. I will be heading into the cave where the mean drake is at next. I believe I have enough leadership to get the flawless cyrstal I need. As for magic shaping, I changed my mind. I forgot that the vlish were the powerhouse of G3 not G2. I'll do battle shaping instead. Almost finished with the demo guys! See you on the other side of Freegate :-)
  18. Really well with an infiltrater just buy more points in mental magic. Cast daze and hit and run if or starts to get ugly. Simple enough, eh? :-)
  19. here's my random pun of the day: She was suspected of stealing a brooch but they couldn't pin it on her.
  20. The new AP system is of great benefit to melee based characters, such as the servile or warrior. - One way to prevent monsters from monsters attacking you all at once is to utilize your mental magic spells. The good thing with later Geneforge games is that there are almost always items that will increase your skills regardless of what character you chose. And mental magic skills i believe was a good substitute to prevent monsters from getting you all at once. Also if your a lifecrafer/shaper they will usually attack the last creature that strikes. (of course its not good if it dies ). - What's wrong with making shapers and mages characters more strategic? I love using strategy . -not sure what you mean about boss fights. Must not reading right lol. - Yeah ranged builds can be overpowered in the game. Especially when you can get over 200 damage with a baton. But that, i believe, the case with every geneforge game. There is always an overpowered skill/tactic that can be utilized in his games. All in all, everyone Geneforge game will have its disadvantages and advantages. Sadly, sometimes they are not well balanced Cmiller
  21. Guys I'm a bit late to start, had some other crap going on. But this time it is for real. Now so far I've made it past the tutorial section, and I'm at the Warren where Zakary is it. Hardly even 5% into the demo . Anyway, here are my stats so far: Level 3 guardian Strength 3, Dex, 2 Int 2, and End 4 Melee 3 Missle 4 Quick Action 4 Parry 7 Have not spent any into magic (obvious). and none into shaping yet. I want Vlish so I will aim at Magic Shaping 10 if possible. And I have 7 Mechanics and 4 LeaderShip. Yeah so I'm only a level 3 Guardian, and I'll update you guys on my stats when I'm done with the Demo area. Sorry it took so long to get this game started. But know that all my real life issues are dealt with I'll be all into this run through. Note my reason for doing this is to give new players an example when they want to try this game out. There isn't a lot of information on G2. I'm sure there is enough to help out, but you can never go wrong with more. So wish me luck I'll be using every canister I come across . I have not ever seen the altered ending my last playthrough. Cmiller
  22. Well, you could have a ton of Vlish with maybe 2 or 3 Rotts. Then you have the missile and melee advantage.
  23. You should put DearPotato's run through of his first G1 game. It has moderate info in it.
  24. I haven't played G3 that much (only half way through). But I do believe that Vlish are almost as equally as powerful as the 4th teir creations, if not more powerful. There is an old disscusion about how powerful vlish are. You can find it in one of the Strategy centrals. My opinion on Rotts: Awesome creations, second in line to the War Tralls. they can take a hefty beating and still fight pretty darn good. I'd watch out for their poison if ever confront one . But if only their appearance were better, i'd might have some more to say about them Lol. People would be more willing to listen to you if you'd leave the Irony out of your sentences. If you don't care about it, why would you want to try it. I'm quite confused? Edit: I wish you good luck on your Run through BlockTree
