Re: Legend of Grimrock 3

I have a lot of fond gaming memories of playing two player Bloodwych in my younger years. (It's the only two-player Dungeon Master style game I've ever played.) I'd probably really enjoy a two-player campaign in Grimrock 3; but I can see a few issues. The core issue is that designing a dungeon for t...

Re: Neck Chain + Leafbond Bracelet

I've used combinations like that, but it's not always obvious if regeneration bonuses are working. I just assume that it works! (Just as I assume that the neck chain doesn't interfere with minotaur bonuses, or the bonuses from the lizardman trait which increases food consumption.)

Re: visiting locations

I'd like to clarify the number of power gems thing.
Very minor spoiler:
SpoilerShow
There are 20 power gems in total. You only need 16 to "win" the game, but you need all 20 to get the "true ending".

Re: Question on mods and custom dungeons

(1) is a mod the same as a custom dungeon? Yes. Grimrock doesn't officially support any modding except for custom dungeons. I mean, obviously you could reverse engineer and change grimrock2.dat or grimrock2.exe, but that would be against the EULA... Those aren't mods, they are just resources for ma...

Your strongest team

I recently finished a game on "insane ironman" mode, for which I used what I thought would be the absolute strongest team. I wouldn't say I got it completely right, but I can say that it was very powerful, and that the last parts of the game was anticlimatically easy because the team was f...

Re: In your opinion, what is the best spell?

About meteor storm using more energy, I'm really not concerned about that. The strength of meteor storm is that it has the highest burst damage of all the spells; and burst damage is what I'm looking for in damage spells. For fights where I'm constantly side-stepping the enemy and attacking them in ...

Re: In your opinion, what is the best spell?

Being able to use poison cloud like that is pretty much the only good thing about poison cloud! For my choice of the best spell, I think I'll just go with the obvious one: Meteor Shower. The damage from other spells pales in comparison. Force field is also a strong spell. It's got me out of many tig...

Re: Well balanced game.

I like the way the races and classes are balanced. There's a bit of variety, and no obviously super-powerful characters. Each class and races has particular strengths. It does look like there are some imbalances in the skills though. I've only played through twice, so I might be mistakes - but from ...

Re: WTF? Hamlet WARZONE!

I got this battle during my first playthrough; but it didn't happen on my second. I've finished the entire game, and I didn't get to fight the second rat boss. I wonder why. ??? After the mine did you head back out to the Hamlet? Sure. I've gone back to the Hamlet many times. But if it really is ac...
