Level up isnt working!

Cerise · 06-27-2004, 03:16 PM

I wonder if anyone out there knows why! I am only in Chapter One but my characters can no longer level up - they seem to be stuck at 2nd level!

You go to the page hit the level up button it shows you the hit points etc for the new level but wont let me press the accept button.

I went in search of the interplay site, but it appears to be not working right now! I read that a lot of the bugs are rectified if you install the expansion of HOW so did that and still no joy!

I suspect part of your problem may be unfamiliarity with the levelling option. (No shame; I got crushed by the goblins outside of Easthaven multiple times until I read the manual and found the pause option [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Sometimes you get other options besides just "accept" when you level up. Thieves have to allot skill points to pick pockets, detect traps, etc., and all classes will eventually get the option to pick more weapon proficiencies. Until you do, the accept button is greyed out.

Try looking at the thief skills and weapon skills sections of the level-up screen. I'm betting it will show skill points and/or additional weapon proficiencies (warriors at level 3). If you have additional points to use before levelling, they are lettered in yellow, and are placed in the same spot as they are when you create the character.

I've not encountered a levelling bug, so if the above solution doesn't work, we'll have to see if anyone else has found such a problem.

Let me know if this solves your problem.

I just ran off to the game and have to admit that I have had an attack of the killer bimbos!
I didnt spot the weapons slot that had appeared and they wanted me to allocate!

*LOL* as for the goblins I got a bloody nose - I set it up to auto pause on attack to give me time to form an adequate defense!

I shall crawl back under my stone now!

No worries, that's what this forum is for; answering questions. The really tough ones and the ones you look back on and say "D'oh!"

Feel free to post any other questions you have; tactics, game problems, whatever. No question is stupid.
