Have you patched the game up Johnny? I'm all patched up with not only the latest patch, but also the free mini-expansion, Sacred Plus. Just go to the main Sacred website to get the downloads if you haven't. Or I reckon you could always hit the Start button, Programs, Ascaron, Sacred, Update.
Awww, poor horsie! See that's another reason why I don't want a horse LOL. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
Oh and it seems once you've killed so many of certain enemies, their circles underneath them turn grey. So, not unless you run into them, they mostly just stand there instead of attack you, and you get very little points if you kill them. Although sometimes they drop loot, so I do the re-kill now and then while moving along LOL. Never saw the tarantula yet. I may run into it later on I reckon, or not, I think that some subquests are different depending on what character you are playing.
Again, check your map to find the icon to take that soldier to where she needs to go. The map pretty much gives you an idea where your quests are. Oh and also that pointer/compass thing at the bottom center of your screen always points towards your main quests I think.
I'm done playing tonight, but I think I'm gonna tackle that north area, go along the water at the bottom of that bridge to get there. Hopefully I won't be doing an area before it is "quested."
Oh, and love all the wildlife LOL, Hello Moose
