The manual mentions setting up a quick load(loading your quicksave right from the fighting screen). Does anyone know how to do this?

In regular fed ex quests(not chapter ending huge quests, which gives equal quest points to everyone) is there a set amount of xp given to be divided up amongst however many you have in your group, or is it per player? The reason I ask, is because my solo assassin does not seem to be rising in level at 5 times my normal game rate.

Can assassins get more then 1 prof pt in any weapons? My human ass has been limited to 1 prof pt each.


Finally, has anyone ever been hit by lightning? I am walking around town during one of the usually rainy nights, and whomp!, I get whacked for about 22hp damage. Nice touch, programmer boy.

Experience I would think you should get all of it. People who solo reach the experience cap very quickly, so you must get that experience from somewhere ;)

Lightning - yes in BGI Khalid was hit once. I was very surprised.

<font color=lime> Go to your configuration program from your desktop. Go to Function List, then Misc. change your Quickload setting to whatever you want. I usually use L. </font>

<font color=lime> Some quests do and some don't. Certain quests have quest points (which all party members get) and then some have just experience points (which the party shares). </font>

Thanks for the info.

Anybody know about the prof. points. I thought assassins were allowed 2 and fighter types were allowed the max 5. I can't get over one.

Swashbucklers are the only Thieves allowed to have ** in their weapons.

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGHHH

My assassin sucks then. He has a 17 main hand Thaco, and 20 offhand and he can't hit anything. The backstab multiplier doesn't mean anything if you never make contact.

Have you ever tried dualling some character while you are soloing? I think I am gonna go for it, just before I end some huge quest.

Dundee Slaytern 12-04-2001 11:56 AM

... ...

Do not dual-wield with your Assassin, it will incur massive penalties to your THACO. My solo Assassin uses a longsword and shield combo.

When you get the high-level ability, Use Any Item, you can use any shield you like. Very good for AC.
