Tenderfoot Thahd satate_master Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 If you’re outdoors and there monsters nearby the can long wait (ctrl+w) without entering combat and still regain some HP and MP. At the beginning of the game this can be a great way to get lots of monsters nearby to fight. In E2 when I went with a single character this allowed me to get enough MP to be able to win. If you’re next to a city when doing this after you level up you can just walk in and train. Out of curiosity is this a bug, glitch, or just really convenient loophole.

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 It's a bug. Also, it only works on Windows. If you try it on a Mac, you get a message telling you that the Long Wait command can only be used in town mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spring Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Convenient, though. I use rest to lure monsters to me. Well, maybe 'lure' isn't the right word, as I don't have bait. They just wander around, and they just happen to get close to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd satate_master Posted October 1, 2005 Author Share Posted October 1, 2005 Loophole bug On occasion when I long wait with monsters nearby it says you can’t with monsters nearby. But it still thinks I’m in combat mode on gives me combat spells. When I go into town it still acts like I’ am in combat mode only closing and opening the game fixes it.

Easygoing Eyebeast Thralni Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I was wondering if there's also a long wait function in BoA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 There's no reason for one, since you don't recover HP and SP over time when indoors in BoA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Chief Spider watching The Simpsons Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I hate it when outdoor monsters just run when you get your level high enough. I like the new system in Avernum where you get to choose whether to fight them or not because of Nature Lore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
