First i've to say that i'm italian, so i hope you'll eventually forgive me some grammar errors. I discovered gamebanshee yesterday, while i was looking for some arcanum forums, and as the italian ones are almost dead, i decided to join this one. Now, i've been playing arcanum for about 3 month, when i was 12, but suddenly i broke my cd, and then i couldn't play it anymore. 5-6 years have passed since the last time i played arcanum, and only in these days i thought abouth emule, and so i downloaded it. I always loved the world of arcanum, the infinite ways to solve a quest, the freedom to choose between magic or technology, good and evil.... By the way, now i started a new game, and i chose the human character with the miracle operation "trait", hoping it would be the best to make a technologist pg. Why choose a human instead of a dwarf? Well, it happened the same thing the first time i played the game, i chose the dwarf, and then i realized that there were few small good armors to use, and afterall, the slight bonuses to tech skills were almost useless, since the time you always need 5 point to max them, the elves suffer penalties in tech aptitude, and half-elves imho suck; the dwarven, gnomes and halflings are small pg, and the half-orc suffers penalties in char and beauty, gaining bonuses to the melee skills that i don't use, the ogres can't hold a gun and are stupid, so i chose the human, who can wear every uncommon armors. During the game i also discovered that i don't need to max inteligence to get all the 7 levels of a skill, due to a potion that the wise in shrouded hills sells to you that max inteligence for few second in which you can max your skills without losing points. You lack of experience? There are no problem, because you can buy how many manuals you want in the tarant university, that boost your experience: any manual adds 13 points to experience, so 7 manuals are enough to create everything. Maybe this has been discovered ages ago, and can be considered cheap.
However, now we come to the real problem: i've been to te island of dispair, and i came back to explore the wheel clan, but i need some spectacles, that the dwarf in the island of dispair didn't give me, although he told me about them, and i also noticed that the captain who first brought me to the island now won't do this anymore. I spoke with bates, but it has been useless. What have i to do to enter the wheel clan?
Wheel Clan Entrance
no moar
i found the spectacles maker in ashbury, but i'm too tired to play; i'll continue tomorrow... by the way, i invite you to read what i've written, maybe you can give some advices about technology: now i've 6 level in electrical and gunsmithy, and 5 in smithy, and i'm wearing: goggled elmet, mechanized plate, hand cannon, ...lol, that shield made with the electrical harness and the quality shield which name i don't remember, that heavy iron boots, 2 charged rings and the jewel of hebe. I suffer in constitution (4), but no one touches me that he's already dead.
Then, the party: i actually have the halfogre you met at the beginning, vergil, and the dwarf at level 29, but i discovered too late jayna, who joined me at level 6, and now she's at level 8 =(, btw, i think i'll leave her, because she abuses of all the hprecovers, and she often burns about 6-7 at battle, so i'll take them for her, and i'll heal me by myself. Ah, one thing: when will that ****in obese ogre chucka join me? when i'll be at level 50?
