Tenderfoot Thahd cheesepile Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Are there ways of getting skill points aside from levelling up? Potions, elixirs or otherwise? I want to know ahead of time so I can manage my SP distribution properly Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenderfoot Thahd cheesepile Posted July 5, 2004 Author Share Posted July 5, 2004 on a side note - are you able to import characters from avernum 1 into A2 & 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 No. You can use the editor to do it, and then you'll see why you can't. The characters that finish one game are vastly overpowered for the beginning of the next. —Alorael, who believes that the potion is called a Skill Potion in A1 and A2. It only becomes a Knowledge Brew in the third installment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Josty Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Nope, in A1, the potion is also called knowledge brew (given 5 skill points). Is that bad memory Alorael, or just another version 1.0 reply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Frozen Feet Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Aren't there both skill potions and knowledge brews? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Maybe there are both, maybe I'm thinking of E1 and E2, or maybe I'm just nuts. —Alorael, who doesn't really think the nomenclature is too important. There are potions. You can drink them and they give you skill points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Skill potions are an Exile thing. Knowledge Brews (which varied in power -- 5 skill points in A1, 3 in A2 and A3) were the norm in Avernum. I had never seen a skill potion until I played BoE.

Kyshakk Koan Lattan Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Actually, knowledge brews gave you five skill points in A2 also. I know because I got mad the first time I drank one in A3 (yesterday) right after playing A2. Bah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
