Deck of many things

Aelia Jusa · 01-09-2004, 05:07 PM

Is it possible to win this game? I have never won, and I've tried many times. Help please! [img]smile.gif[/img]

If by "Win" you mean get the weapon and the scroll, than yes, it is possible. You just have to be relucky and reload a few times.

Aelia Jusa · 01-09-2004, 05:48 PM

So it's purely luck? Damn! You wouldn't believe how many times I pick plague [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img]

Killing everyone works too you dont get the scroll but you get the deck and the gem which are the main quest items. Even though i belive the scroll would be more usefull then the deck...its kinda stupid.

you could alway's buy a scroll of luck spell..

I believe the scroll they are talking about is the scroll of Wish, not luck. luck is a fairly common spell.

I think Q'alooaith is implying that you could buy a scroll of Luck and it would improve your chances of a favorable outcome in the game (though I'm fairly certain that's not so. You never know, though).
You could always buy a scroll of Wish, too.

But the Spectral Brand is not buyable! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Nope. That's why, if you run out of patience and can only select one prize, Aelia, it's best to pick SB. Definately one of my favorite weapons... and Jahiera can use it! At last, a decent one-handed weapon for a druid!
Edit- Please don't attack me with posts about great one-handed druidic weapons, please. It was a rhetorical statement ::cowers::

Yes, that's what I ended up doing. Not one to cast wish anyway, and I think both Imoen and Nalia have it already

Thanks [img]smile.gif[/img]
