Grimrock

Armor is useful for not taking damage. That's about the size of it. It's not just the +% bonus, but also the removal of the evasion penalty. Evasion isn't king, like it may have been before. But it helps, and it helps a bunch in really small doses. But, it doesn't help at negative values. I did som...

Really? Firearms are why you can't "in good faith" recommend this game? :roll: :roll: firearms totally have their use, and I can't think of one CRPG I've played where all weapons were created equal. Grimrock 1 Unarmed and sword were markedly better than maces and axes. Armor skill close to...

Evasion isn't worthless or near-worthless, it just isn't a potential super-stat like it was in LoG1. It still allows the character to avoid some attacks, and even if that's only a modest share of them, those are attacks that don't do any damage.

ok...so after reading all the comments in this thread I'm getting a bit nervous haha. I'm using a backrow rogue that's dual wielding light weapons is he gonna turn out to be useless or something? am i gonna hit the same brick wall? I'd rather know now and still be able to restart. I have no alchemis...

Beleive me it's MUCH harder than grimrock 1, you're not a "pussy" for thinking that. I've been basically choking it out barely on hard, with a ton of reloading. The leprecahun guy drove me crazy until I figured out what exactly to do. In grimrock 1 square dancing was much easier. Here enem...

Thanks!
