[Audyssey] Elementals Defeated!
Hi All, Thanks for the suggestions, I was finally able to defeat the Elemental bosses. I did lose my wolf, but oh well.sacrifices must be made.

The Gobblin King is one reason I like to have a Mage in my party for the Shrink spell, which you should be able to max out quite easily by the time you get there. Since the Gobblin King generally inflicts the most damage it's a good idea to shrink him or even Charm him if you happen to have that ability. I wouldn't take him out first if only because of the Necromancer. One common strategy when dealing with a party that includes a Necromancer is to take out the Necro first since then he can't resurrect anybody. The skeletons often do at least as much damage as they did in life and they can take much more of a beating. I'd take out the Necro first and then try to focus on the king since he generally causes the most damage. Homer: Hey, uh, could you go across the street and get me a slice of pizza? Vender: No pizza.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Well, I downloaded entombed just a couple days ago. So, unless there has been a more recent release I am pretty sure I am up to date. And I did delete the saved games and reinstalled but still no luck. I am using jaws 10. Thanks for the suggestions though. I am confused as to why it isn't cooperating. lol Kellie and my lovable Lady J.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
While I agree challenge can be taken too far, technoshock (and possibly night of parasite), being a case in point, I personally don't agree entombed steps over this boundry. I believe there have been times the beta version has, such as when due to a misjudgement you started minus a pet, and when, in I believe beta 2.41 or so, the drake first got fire breath and was resistance to just about everything. However, I'd say the difficulty is about right now. hard enough to be challenging, but not hard enough to be frustrating. Obviously this is both highly personali and dependent upon the skills of the gamer, I freely admit for instance I'm terrible at racing games, and I've never got beyond mission 5 of lone wolf (possibly due to my spacial coordination). But going on average, as any developer must I'd say Jason has entombed currently balanced about right. of course if more features and other things are added the balance pendulum will probably swing again, eg, an uba character job or race, or a super nasty monster. but hopefully reports and opinions from the entombed list can help keep the balance where it needs to be even with these additions. Beware the grue! Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
The reason why I said Hardcore was that you seemed surprised that it took only three attempt for Dark to kill said bosss. You seemed to think it ought to take more. I'm all for challenge, don't get me wrong. That's something I agree our market desperately needs. But I do think it can be taken too far.

Re: [Audyssey] Another Problem With Entombed
Hi, How very strange. If memory serves me correctly, the bug of items not being there was present quite a few builds ago, but has since been squashed . At this time, I don't have a suggestion for Thomas's problem. Try to give Dark's suggestion a try. if it doesn't work, write back and we will try to assist. As you have seen, many of the people on this list are also members of the entombed discussion group. Rich - Original Message - From: dark Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 1:29 PM Oddly though tom, this one hasn't shown up at all for me. i've been right through the game to the 25th floor with 1.0, pluss some smaller less successful attempts, and have thus far never seen this error. Perhaps you could try removing the saved games folder (keep a copy if you wish), and let the game create one again. this might help in determining where the error is, sinse if people who've had long lasting saved games folder which have been there for a number of betas like myself and Bryan haven't seen this problem, but it comes up for you, it might be an issue with saving which has been missed in the beta testing. It could also be a demo bug not present in the full version for some reason, which obviously would need fixing. Irritatingly enough this seems to be a new bug, as opposed to the old established ones which are known about, and not a very common one either, nevertheless I suppose this is just what happens when more people start trying the game. beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Another Problem With Entombed
Oddly though tom, this one hasn't shown up at all for me. i've been right through the game to the 25th floor with 1.0, pluss some smaller less successful attempts, and have thus far never seen this error. Perhaps you could try removing the saved games folder (keep a copy if you wish), and let the game create one again. this might help in determining where the error is, sinse if people who've had long lasting saved games folder which have been there for a number of betas like myself and Bryan haven't seen this problem, but it comes up for you, it might be an issue with saving which has been missed in the beta testing. It could also be a demo bug not present in the full version for some reason, which obviously would need fixing. Irritatingly enough this seems to be a new bug, as opposed to the old established ones which are known about, and not a very common one either, nevertheless I suppose this is just what happens when more people start trying the game. beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
The thing with skeletons, and to an extent zombies, is that they can't be killed by simply mangling body parts or chopping heads off, you need to stringently hack every piece of them up to despose of them. On the pluss side though, those bones are very brital, and easily damamged. skeletal fighters therefore are very vulnerable to having their hands mangled or chopped off, and skeletal animals can have their skuls mangled, which wrenders them harmless and unable to attack. hth.

Hi, No kidding. Some of those skeletons are tough to kill, and take a serious beating and keep coming. I've even got one of those on my team. I encountered this one goblin fighter on level 4 whom I killed with an ice blast. I then rezerected him, gave him some cloth armour, a decent pair of short swords, gave him an enchanted pair of wool leggings, and he became an awesome fighter. Usually when he goes into combat he doesn't walk away from the fight without lopping off a hand, foot, arm, or leg. Sometimes he goes into flurry and kills goblin fighters outright in one single worlwind attack. He is like totally cool. So it is certainly useful to have a trained skeleton warrior on your side. Since I have a Necro myself I always attack the enemy Necros to keep the enemy from trying to even up the odds.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Glad things are working out tom. As I said, I'd generally agree on being even handed with skills, in fact in muds or online games I rather dislike my character being limited in what he/she can do depending upon skills, so try and have as wide an array as possible. Entombed though is a different game with a different focus. Not only do you have effectively six sets of skills to choose from, thus making it possible to have a number of characters with specific rolls, but also the game, rather than being a long online affair that goes on forever, is a replayable rpg where you can try different combinations and skill sets and see what works best. Imho this is one of the games' major strengths, so much choice to the player in terms of how to handle the game, which contributes to it's replayability as much as the random generation of dungeons and enemies do. Beware the grue! Dark. - Original Message - From: "Thomas Ward" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 7:36 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake. Hi, Yeah, I'm beginning to find that out myself. To be honest when I began playing Entombed I treated it in much the same way I'd play any other RPG type game such as Sryth. I'd try and give my character as many skills as possible, and not focus on any specific skill/power. Only problem is that kind of thinking is exactly what will get you killed. However, in my latest game I decided to focus my skill points on specific skills. Especially, those that have always came in handy. Like I have a half-elf mage necro who has ice blast trained up to level 5. In most cases he can kill most enemies with one attack. A direct attack to the Goblin King's head drops him stone dead in a single attack. So with the right skills/powers ttrained up right those are the key to winning for sure. As for the Goblin King's so-called guards you are right. If you have a special attack those guys go down pretty easy. in my last game I used a confusion scroll to screw up the King, and unleashed my forces on direct attacks on the guards.

Re: [Audyssey] A VERY frustrating entombed problem
Does the game work with sapi? generally if entombed isn't running it's not to do with xna or other components, it's either because the saved games folder in my documents needs deleting, or because your trying to run entombed update.exe rather than entombed.exe. Screen readers shouldn't make a difference to the program starting, in fact the program should start irrispective of what screen reader is or is not running, and then let you use either an alt key choice or preferences to choose what program you want.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Hi, No kidding. Some of those skeletons are tough to kill, and take a serious beating and keep coming. I've even got one of those on my team. I encountered this one goblin fighter on level 4 whom I killed with an ice blast. I then rezerected him, gave him some cloth armour, a decent pair of short swords, gave him an enchanted pair of wool leggings, and he became an awesome fighter. Usually when he goes into combat he doesn't walk away from the fight without lopping off a hand, foot, arm, or leg. Sometimes he goes into flurry and kills goblin fighters outright in one single worlwind attack. He is like totally cool. So it is certainly useful to have a trained skeleton warrior on your side. Since I have a Necro myself I always attack the enemy Necros to keep the enemy from trying to even up the odds. Definitely don't want any more nasties to fight than I absolutely have too.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Hi, Yeah, I'm beginning to find that out myself. To be honest when I began playing Entombed I treated it in much the same way I'd play any other RPG type game such as Sryth. I'd try and give my character as many skills as possible, and not focus on any specific skill/power. Only problem is that kind of thinking is exactly what will get you killed. However, in my latest game I decided to focus my skill points on specific skills. Especially, those that have always came in handy. Like I have a half-elf mage necro who has ice blast trained up to level 5. In most cases he can kill most enemies with one attack. A direct attack to the Goblin King's head drops him stone dead in a single attack. So with the right skills/powers ttrained up right those are the key to winning for sure. As for the Goblin King's so-called guards you are right. If you have a special attack those guys go down pretty easy. in my last game I used a confusion scroll to screw up the King, and unleashed my forces on direct attacks on the guards. They all dropped like flies, and then we ganged up and took out the King. Was really quite fun and interesting to watch the Goblin King when he was both confused while my characters leveled him with ice blasts direct to the head.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Hi David, Very interesting info. That's pretty impressive that certain spell attacks do more damage to certain elementals than others. I'll definitely keep that in mind when I begin encountering them again. However, most of my characters this game are the massive fighter types. So they don't do much with magic, and would rather slice and dice there way through the enemy hords. Grin.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Hi Bryan, Yeah, that is pretty much what I've discovered myself. My first few games I didn't find any scrolls, and the couple I did find couldn't be identified in the shop or with an identify scroll. So I had no idea if they were useful or not. However, in my current game I'm loaded with useful scrolls. I found a pack of five identify scrolls on the first floor which I used on several unidentified scrolls which turned out to be a curse scroll, a level 4 shrink scroll, a regeneration scroll, and I got a level 1 fire bolt scroll from the shop. So this time I've certainly found a lot more then the previous games. It appears to be a completely random hit or miss thing like you said. Plus as for the Drake blocking the stairs that was the case in my first game I found him. I explored the entire level, and the only place left to go was down, but the Drake was sitting right there on the steps leading down. So basically in a case like that I was screwed. Couldn't beat him, couldn't continue, and just passing him up wasn't an option. However, in this new game I'm doing much better. Except for the bug that won't allow me to pick anything up. I've had to leave behind quite a bit of weapons and armour because the game won't let me take it. It acts like it isn't there. So I'm pretty frustrated with that mishap. That's never happened before. Otherwise I'm really holding my own against enemies. I just easily faught my way through the Goblin King and his gang of chronies. Now, if I could just get his weapons and armour I'm more than willing to give the Drake another try.

The Gobblin King is one reason I like to have a Mage in my party for the Shrink spell, which you should be able to max out quite easily by the time you get there. Since the Gobblin King generally inflicts the most damage it's a good idea to shrink him or even Charm him if you happen to have that ability. I wouldn't take him out first if only because of the Necromancer. One common strategy when dealing with a party that includes a Necromancer is to take out the Necro first since then he can't resurrect anybody. The skeletons often do at least as much damage as they did in life and they can take much more of a beating.

Hi Dark, Well, I do appreciate the game, and the scope of complexity. However, I am very frustrated with the fact that I can't get my questions answered or clarified by reading the documentation. I'm of an old school opinion that if you sell something you must provide the end user with quality documentation, and give them an overview of all of the game's features. For this reason I feel as though Jason rushed Entombed to final production without completing the documentation and there are still bugs that could be fixed. I've had the game crash three or four times while playing that certainly wasn't cool. However, I am glad Jason is aware of the problem, and has plans to work on the documentation. It is something I feel is needed, especially for a new user like me, and hope he is willing to go into some detail. I'd like to see the advantages and disadvantages of certain races and jobs. I'd like to see a weapons list of what kind of weapons are in the game, quality, and what certain scrolls do. I didn't use certain scrolls simply because I didn't know what they were suppose to do, or when to use them. It is kind of confusing having say a level 4 focus scroll in your inventory and having no clue what it does, when to use it, and so on. Not knowing how to use it is pretty much the same as not having it in my book. Anyway, I'm admitedly in something of a crabby mood. I actually do love the game, but I'd like to know how to play it. I'm tired of making it to say the Goblin King and having my entire party completely whiped out in a couple of combat turns against the Goblin King. I like the challenge, but it would be nice to have an idea how to play so that doesn't happen. Yeah, maybe loose one or two people, but to have my entire party chopped up like roast beaf is not too cool at all.I just feel at times like that I am not a good player, or that I'm lacking some vital information that more experienced players such as yourself have.

The Gobblin King is one reason I like to have a Mage in my party for the Shrink spell, which you should be able to max out quite easily by the time you get there. Since the Gobblin King generally inflicts the most damage it's a good idea to shrink him or even Charm him if you happen to have that ability. I wouldn't take him out first if only because of the Necromancer. One common strategy when dealing with a party that includes a Necromancer is to take out the Necro first since then he can't resurrect anybody. The skeletons often do at least as much damage as they did in life and they can take much more of a beating. I'd take out the Necro first and then try to focus on the king since he generally causes the most damage. Homer: Hey, uh, could you go across the street and get me a slice of pizza? Vender: No pizza.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.
Hello, spoilers Take them out one elemental at a time. Focus all of your attack power on the most damaging one first. Remember what powers each elemental has. Which two elementals have area effect spell attacks? If you have any mages, which magical attacks are more effective against which elements? This really is a strategy game. Hints Air casts lightning and is quite resistent to lightning but is susseptible to ice. Water casts surge and is susseptible to lightning. The other two elements cast individual attacks. If you are using just massive fighter types, I cannot help so much as I tend to look for magical strategies and don't do so well with just fighter type characters.

Re: [Audyssey] Entombed was Adult games
Hello, Spoilers ahead It is different strategies. I always do better with magic and monk characters as my primary. This is because I think in strategies using these characters. It has always been the same for me with tabletop fantasy role-playing games. Others do better with fighter type characters as that is how they think for strategy. I just defeated the drake using two gnome tricksters (one is my primary char and one is a rescue, a halfling druid, my pet, and a summoned goblin necro. The only one who died was the goblin necro, and that was with two fire breaths. All of my chars cast summmon animal which populated the area with a bunch of cave bats (extra targets for the drake). I had 9 healing potions (4 were purch with the drake's neck being mangled right as it shifted to critically injured. ased in town and the rest were found) and two web scrolls which I used. My main char was using the scrolls and passing out the healing potions as he could not really do much with his fire bolts against the drake. Whenever a summoned animal died, I used summon animal again from each char until I found the one who could summon another animal. My trickster necro pounded on the drakes neck with iceblast, and my druid bard used regeneration song for the party and threw lightning bolts. I actually had the goblin king's twins equipped and forgot about them. It was a long battle, but we were victorious, and with no reloads.

[Audyssey] Way finder access petition please sign
Hello friends, family, lists and all other contacts that I have managed to find over this last hour. I'm writing to you all to ask for your help. As some of you know, some of you don't, but recently Vodafone has gone and completely discontinued the "way finder access" gps solution that many blind people use. For those of you that don't know what this is then let me briefly explain. Wayfinder was developed as a gps solution for blind people to use on their mobile phone. It has been developed to work with what ever screen reader you are using on your phone whether it be Mobilespeak or Talks so it isn't dependent on 1 specific bit of software to run. Wayfinder access or as it is more commonly known as WFA, is an internet based gps solution. It connects to a centralised server for any route calculation. This means among other things, that any map updates that are available are all done at the server end which means that you as the end user automatically have "free" access to those maps when ever you connect. You aren't charged to upgrade your maps because no maps are stored on the phone. Unlike products developed from companies such as http://www.humanware.com/en-united_kingdom/home or http://www.gwmicro.com this gps solution costs less than £300 to purchase where as the products as shown in these web links cost well over £1000. which for your average person is not a reasonable price. As yet we do not know why Vodafone have officially discontinued wayfinder access, all we know that it has been discontinued. So we are asking for your help. Below is a link to an "official" protest site that has been launched. The idea is to get as many signatures as possible between now and the 15th of March and then we will send this off to Vodafone to see what can be done. Please help us by signing the petition and spreading the word. Contact your friends, family, work colleagues, anybody and everybody you can think of. Your assistants, time and effort taken with this matter is appreciated Many thanks. http://www.talknav.com/protest Vodafone... get blind pedestrians back on track! Released in April 2007, Wayfinder Access was the first GPS application that was accessible for blind and low vision users on their mobile phone. A breakthrough! an affordable product that made blind persons more independent by informing them about their surroundings and allowing them to walk any route they wanted. Vodafone recently bought Wayfinder Systems and discontinued Wayfinder Access. Most blind users don't have an alternative, so they will lose access to all the freedom GPS navigation can offer them. The few alternatives to Wayfinder Access are at least 3 times more expensive and often don't run on a mobile phone, requiring the user to carry around and maintain a lot of extra expensive equipment. In many countries, no alternative for Wayfinder is available at all. As you will see, discontinuing Wayfinder Access would put thousands of blind pedestrians off track! Please help us make clear to Vodafone that they are heading the wrong way and sign our petition! Please also pass on the link to this page to other persons to ensure we get as many signatures as possible! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
