Can't ever find traps

NewbietoRPGs · 08-09-2003, 08:29 PM

So, I'm at the horde fortress (but not in it yet)and I'm slowly killing the worg riders and such, I know that there are traps on the bridges but I can't find them to disable them! I have everyone searching but nothing shows up for me to disable! What am I doing wrong? I'm sick of sacrificing someone to spring the darn things.

Your spot trap skill is probably not high enough.

Those bridge traps require high trap finding skill. But I don't think the damage done is fatal. (Try lowering the difficulty level)

both previous posts are possible but i suspect it is because of your intelligence which is the 'find traps' skills governing attribute. My first thief was just as bad seems as i thought all thief skills were based on dexterity. If that is the case drop all the rogue's stuff replace him with a new and improved rogue. You can then enable the cheat console in configuration and set his xp to whatever the other rogue's was with this code -

ctrlaltdelete:setcurrentxp(insert desired number of xp points)

btw i don't really consider this as cheating, simply saving time instead of going through the whole game again which would take the fun out of a great game.

Thanks! I'm going to give it a try! I also just noticed that my Wizard is stupid all of a sudden. His Intelligence went down to 4! What the heck could've happened???

Probably a Feeblemind spell. Check to see if there is an unrecognized icon showing up on your character portrait. A Dispel Magic spell should get rid of it.
