Tried the demo, had fun with it but certainly couldn't play this game any longer with the keyboard controls.

Wasd became my move keys q and e stayed dash move. J main attack, k magic spell, l special, space stayed jump. Also the quick drop enabled. With that config it's been infinitely better than the default.

I don't have the spellsword yet; flame shield is the one that you can toggle on/off to be surrounded by fireballs, right? I've seen this one in Archmages.

I have all these runes, but need the money to unlock them. What's also bothering me is the fact that the Charon and +Gold skills are so expensive. I would love to upgrade those further, but I can't get enough cash on one run. I don't think the Charon upgrades are worth it, at least at low character levels. You get to keep 6% of your gold at each upgrade, right? But that's too little gold to matter, since - at least I do it this way - I open some upgrade everytime I have money for it, rather than trying to stockpile gold. The gold skills and runes seem to be worth it, though. (July 5th, 2013, 06:20)Gustaran Wrote: Some interesting facts you may already know about, but I just found out: Didn't know about any of these. I got the Hedgehog's Curse on the first Altar I've found, so I thought it could give harmful bonuses (I didn't realize you dropped more coins than you actually lose of gold). I'll use it more from now on.

I got used to the controls after a while, though I still miss things from time to time (and I seldom use magic spells, so that's one key less). I guess playing MOBAs helped me on this (and I mean a MOBA that requires real skillz, like DotA 2; not the easy mode LOL  ).
I have bought the game as well and I am highly enjoying it currently at lvl 47 with 4.5ish hours played.
One thing i haven´t figured out yet is why the Lich class stops recieveing bonus health after ~25 kills in the castle section. Is that in place so you simply can´t farm the low lvl sections of the game for absurd amounts of health, and i need to enter the more difficult areas in order to continue recieving my health bonus?

I don't think it has anything to do with the level of the opponents, there's just a hard cap for the amount of health you can get (maybe it's based on your strenght - or another - stat, don't know). When you upgrade Liches to Lich Kings, you can turn your extra health into extra mana and then farm health again. After a while, both your health and mana will be maxed and you can't get any more of it, as far as I could see.

Yeah first thing I did was change keys, funnily enough I reverted back to the keys I used back on the Spectrum even though I haven't used those in at least 10 years for anything.  I think part of my problem was I could be comfortable using 4-5 keys but more than that and I had to slow right down and be very deliberate.

I'm at level 97, haven't touched the third boss.
In Soviet Russia, Civilization Micros You!

I just beat the third boss at level 61. I used a barbarian king, as suggested by ASM (I don't remember the traits). Runes where again, mostly mobility ones, double jump, fly and dash (the others were useless). No vampirism items, because it's useless against this boss. I've tried some 10 times with multiple classes until I did it (using the architect - the other bosses I beat without the architect, just trying when I reached it; the tower is too difficult for this, though
 ).Strategy below.
I think boss 3 is actually really easy, getting to boss 3 is really hard though.

I am at level 90 and haven't even tried the 2nd boss...too much upgrading to do.
It usually goes like this: I want to do one last run and find a new blueprint. Of course now I need to play on until I can purchase the new gear. Unfortunately, the new helmet would put me over the weight limit, so just one more run to upgrade this as well...For general clearing I love the vampire runes. I find it a bit odd though, that you need to equip the vault and sprint rune for double jump and dash. It would have been more fun if these two were standard abilities, double jump ability seems almost mandatory. |
