Like, did you see how much hit points your party gets when they get turned into boogres??? I would never have changed back if it wasn't for just two different pics and I allways mistook, when fighting, just who am I using to fight.


Boogres rule!


Oh, and if the spell fizzles from time to time, bah, so what, boogre rush attck, look no weapons!


Nah, seriously, my priest in the booger state had almost twice as many HP as my barbarian in normal state! Well, I would never have stayed booger anyway, however it isn't fair that you can't pick such a strong character in the beginning of the game...*ponders* I wonder if I only leave my samurai in that state, hmm...

LOL!!!!

Boogre Caves is one of the favorite places in this game for many of the players! Certainly was a fun adventure!! How'd you like the gauntlet??

I LOVED the Boogre Caves!

Alas, 6 Boogres cannot ride the horse http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif

What? Why not? It doesn't let you, Moni?

Wow...I never thought to take my "boogres" OUTSIDE the cave...my main goal was to get them unboogred ASAP (mainly because when I first played through, I thought I had a 24 hour time limit, LOL!)

*laughing at all of you* Wow! No horse, fizzle fizzle - who cares, We are Big and Bad - we are BOOGERS!! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...s/borg_ani.gif (I meant Boogres, of course) http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no.../1grlaugh2.gif

Well, the boogres are slow. They does not seem to be able to use the 2nd weapon or, at least, they use the 2nd weapon really ineffectively. Also, the 100 HP are not so big advantage later in the game: high levels - lot of HP - lower significance of the 100 HP.
Therefore, boogreism gives you (perhaps) some advantage NOW but the disadvantages (sloth, failing spells, 2nd weapon) become apparent later. De-boogre ASAP!

Have you done the gaunlet with your ordinary characters.

Is there any where else you can get Boogerie Brew so you can up your stats more at the end of the gaunlet?


Sazerac 05-15-2001 09:16 AM

I have. (done it with ordinary characters).

No major difference, except you'll probably use healing spells a little more (but effectively!)

Marjan_2 05-15-2001 02:18 PM

damn this boards are fast!

Radek, the way I see it, you get more HP when you become a booger, then accordingly, the HP icrease. or don't they? cus if they don't, then it sucks, but if they do, well then, my barbarian will become a boogre, if I have to go over the boogre, shurugeon castle and stout mines all over again!!!

Wyvern,.. mm forgot what guntlet I got there, so I can't really respond http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

And damn it, they can't ride a horse! Maybe if the game had an elephant or something ...

Sazerac 05-15-2001 03:00 PM

Marjan, Boogreism gives you 100 extra HP. I don't know if that affects future level increases, though.

"The gauntlet" refers to "running the gauntlet"...that is, running the Boogre's obstacle course. There's an intersting Idol at the end (Idol of Bongu) that gives some rather nice effects. Don't forget your Boogre brew! 1 per customer. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Moni 05-15-2001 10:57 PM

Saz,
I took my characters back to town (boogred lol) to sell off stuff and train up after level gains...had to leave the horse at the edge of the lake, we simply were not allowed to ride it as boogres!

When I saw all my party turned into Boogres, I was just sitting there with my hands on my head and being very upset. Of course, the Boogres are strong and have their own advantages, but they are UGLY! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif Don't you think so? Awful picture - the former pretty elf is Big Bad Boogre...http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
My party says that this Cave is the most unpleasant place in whole world...

Sincerely Yours,
Tanda

Sazerac 05-15-2001 11:45 PM

I guess it depends on how you look at it, Tanda. I thought it was a hoot, myself! Yeah, I was a bit upset at first, but I figured, "okay, there's gotta be a way out of this!" Then when you start talking with those boogres and LISTENING to what they're emitting...well, I nearly fell off the chair laughing several times.

My main problem is that I'm very magic-heavy, and the faulty magic use really told against me. So my main goal was to get them back to normal ASAP so I could use spells again with impunity.

It did make me rethink some strategies, though...especially with those lilies!

The Boogre cave was a real HOOT! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...l_laughter.gif So imaginative, so funny, so cool and yes SO UGLY!!! They are ugly - no doubt about it! And to see my Wizard in the purple robe and pointed hat as a Boogre was just too much. LOL

Mammawlin *unboogred and smiling*
