Originally posted by Kakero: I dislike the mules in DS. They always run away when my characters are fighting. Stupid creature! Stand and protect your master! Hmm...I'm becoming more like my mother now. Sleep late but wake up very early. Like sleep at 11pm but wakes up at 3am. Hmm..this is getting worrying.

Well they can't really protect you so I actually like that it runs away on its own so I don't have to bother with it. But I do remember in the first 3 chapters of the game there were a lot if instances where the mule really made wrong choices as to where to run LOL. I'd be in a battle and like "hey where is that dang mule? He's getting a beating wherever he is." And I'd look and he's in some unexplored room that is filled to the brim with monsters. Then you gotta make the choice --continue the battle I'm currently in-- or --run away from battle to save the quickly dying mule who is surrounded and cannot escape--. Hmmm...choices choices LOL... Of course I always end up saving the frikken mule, cause if he croaks a zillion things will be strewn about that I'll have to pick up, and also he makes the most saddest pitiful whimper when he dies, it gets to me LOL.

As for your sleep problem, I dunno. If you drink or are taking medication, that will do that sort of thing. Just go back to sleep LOL!

Evening, all. Sounds as if the mules are like the Henchmen in NWN. Not really.

[Ladyzekke]

Well I backtracked, took me a good two hours before I found that frikken path to the dragon!! Blah!! After two reloads, cause my arse was being kicked, I decided to just send in my two fighters to kill it, and leave the rest of my party in a cave hallway, cause that is why I kept having to reload, the weaker party members were dying. Finally got his ass. Bastaid. Big mutha too!:





I've also spent the time to get back to my original position, so tomorrow I can move on now [img]smile.gif[/img] Again hopefully no time limit or anything re the secret chamber quest. I'll find out tomorrow!

Yall have a good one. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Nice Screen shots, LZ! Big dragon!

Well, my mule still ends up at the head of things sometimes but I'm learning how to avoid that. I did Wesrin Cross..UGH...spiders everywhere...and missed the final room. Ran all the way back out before finding out there was a final room and big boss....guess I'll head back at some point.

Whoa...that's not a party you're traveling with Wendy, that's a regiment.

How many characters can join your crew anyway ?

[Ladyzekke]

Oh yeah there is a big spidey you need to kill to finish off that area Cloudy LOL! He's not that bad though. And make sure muley is on Hold Ground status. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Johnny you can have 8 people in your party, or 7 and a mule LOL.

[Attalus]

That is one big group. And to think that I long for the six person group.

[Ivelliis]

LadyZ, you can have more than 1 mule can't you?

[Kakero]

yes, a player can have 1 character and 7 mules. But I prefer having 8 charatcers. After having bad experience with mules I don't like mules anymore.

Whoa...i just read he most amazing thing. A man in Vlaardingen (the Netherlands) has skinned his mother and went out on the streets wearing her skin as an outfit. Because it happened during Carnaval, when half the country is dressed up kinda silly, noone gave him serious attention, but when confronted with the police, he confessed right away.

I only have an article in Dutch about this, so posting it here won't do much good.

But seriously...there's whacko's...and there's major whacko's.
