Hi Thomas, As for the General Store in Twilight town it's the seme for me, and I have bought the game. It's ridiculous in that sometimes I can't even find a healing potion in there, and now that you start withnone and seldom find any, it's extremely arguous when one or the other of your party has this or that limb mangled. Best Regards, Hayden

Oh no, you can find them in the demo, but it's extremely hit and miss. That sort of thing is why I remain firmly convinced that defeating the Drake at least, even if not the other bosses, is based far more on luck than on skill. There's absolutely no guarantee that you'll find any of the more useful scrolls before you get to the Drake, and if you don't have a Mage to shrink him, which in any case doesn't always work, you could be screwed since there's really no way to protect against the Drake's attacks. It's perfectly possible for him to one-shot you with his physical attacks if he happens to hit your torso or head, which I've noticed he does more often than not. And if you get really unlucky and he's blocking the stairs you're basically out of luck. Homer: Hey, uh, could you go across the street and get me a slice of pizza? Vender: No pizza. Only Khlav Kalash. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Ward" <thomasward1...@gmail.com> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Monday, March 01, 2010 9:12 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake. > Hi Dark, > Well, one of the problems is I'm not finding any scrolls like that > here.
