  1. Saving doesn't require making multiple save files. I don't see anything about this that would require another save file. If he saw he was getting wrecked in whatever battle he was walking into he could've just reloaded without trying to see it through.

     

    You cannot load a Trial of Iron save from in game (only from the main menu), and quitting overwrites the save, which is also deleted on game over. Only thing you can do to save the situation is to Alt+F4, or close the process in Task Manager, but then whats the point of Trial of Iron.

  2. The phrase is for when the guards, or priests, stop to question you, even when you are wearing the robes. The phrase, or the right attributes are needed for them to not attack. You made the logical leap that he meant you don't need any disguise at all, which isn't that unreasonable given what he says: 

     

    "Oh - this will do you more good than a disguise. We have a passphrase. It is 'From every ending, a beginning'. Say that and the guards here will leave you be. On this floor alone, I'm afraid. Raedric's sellswords have little patience for such things."

     

    What I don't understand is how can you have 30 h of play time, and the guards there still be a challenge.

    Much more thorough :thumbsup:. I'm only in Act I, and have just completed Raedric's Hold with a 5 men level 4 party(I have Caed Nua and Madmr Bridge left) and also decided to not level up further until Defiance Bay. This will help with Act II, which is hardest to keep challenge in, now that there is high level scaling for III.

     

    Regarding White March II. I think it's meant to start on level 9 and can be upscaled  on 12, which is done by 30% so the begging ares are also level 12.

  4. But there is no message, no popup that would write "tada, you have entered act 2".

     

    It's been quite some time since I last played the game, but I'm pretty sure there is one when you enter Defiance Bay.

     

    Anyway to keep the challenge I decided to delay leveling up, so I'm going in the following order:

    • Do the following but don't level up past 5
      • Act I
      • Endless Paths until it gets too difficult
    • Do the following but don't level up past 7
      • All quests in Defiance Bay
      • Endless Paths until it gets too difficult
    • Do the following but don't level up past 9
      • White March I
      • Rest of Act II
      • Endless Paths until it gets too difficult
    • Do the following but don't level up past 12
      • White March II
      • Endless Paths
      • Cragholdt Bluffs
    • Finish the game
      • Upscale Act III
      • Upscale Act IV

    Any thoughts on the order or levels? On what level to do the Alpine Dragon and the new wizard? Will I be able to reach max level from level 12 full exp(level 13 no exp) in Act III and IV?

  5. I've just loaded up a higher level party led by a cipher to check.

     

    Cipher spells are all 10 focus per level, so 2nd level cost 20 instead of 15, 3rd level 30 instead of 20 etc.

     

    Choosing mastered spells for wizards is going to be tough and could potentially result in broken builds if you pick the wrong ones, a bit like how sorcerers could be awesome or awful in BG2 depending on their spell choices. This may make the re-specking shops an unavoidable expense for all *optimised* wizards :(

     

    I think it also pushes up the value of the extra spell slot skills for increase flexibility.

     

    How so, when wizards were/are quite good even before they reach per encounter levels?

  6. It's only fair we give their particular brand of pretend beliefs time to evolve and mature (since much of the Muslim world has been the butthole of humanity the last 400 years or so, they are coming from a different point than where we are at now), and not judge them harder than our Christian progenitors of the ignorant past.

     

    hahahahaha  :thumbsup:

  7.  

    some conspiracy/evil west/random unrelated nonsence back at you :)

    You right of course...its weird...almost like its intentional ...but surly she wouldn't do that, do people do things like that on the Internet  :biggrin:

    Meh. I have darker tan than her during summer, and I try hard to avoid the sun.

  9. I've got another.

     

    The railroad are the ones who kill your husband/wife, they do it to find the institute, making use of the most intense of human movtivations, mother's/father's love for their son.

    and/or you are synth 1000 sent back from the future and/or programmed with the memory of the murder of your husband. 

     

    The last humans are trapped inside the institute and they can't get out. 

     

    Those sound way too interesting for a Bethesda game.  :lol:
