First timer - questions

I think you would get tired of doing it, before it got to that point.

It's best used to make up for poor party creation stats. If your in a hurry to change roles and are a few points off.

Welcome to the board, Nutman. May your travels in the Gael Serran be profitable and enjoyable.

One clarification to a point you made: when you change classes, you *can* continue to learn spells in the old class's schools. You learn them at half the rate, however. So if your wizard switches to barbarian, he or she can still learn sun and stone spells -- level 2 spells at level 4, level 3 spells at level 6, and so on.

Role changes:
The Reset Adventures option CLEARS your role history. Example:
Let us suppose your role history is Mage -> Warlock -> Paladin -> Ranger. You are a ranger and you cannot return to the Warlock or Paladin role.
Reset Adventures. Now, you are a ranger only. The fact that you were a warlock or a paladin is forgotten. Therefore:
1. You can become a warlock or a paladin again.
2. You will gain "full levels" immediately. The restriction "only 1 HP and skill point until you reach a level higher than your highest level so far" is forgotten, too - because there is no "highest level so far" after Reset Adventures.

Reset Adventures returns the game to the very beginning but your stats, skill levels, traits and inventory are unaffected ecxept for SOME quest items, which are removed from your inventory. Is it bad? Quite the opposite! The world is full of monsters again so that you can gain levels in your new role quickly.

Always reset adventures after a role change unless you have a serious reason for not doing it. Examples:
1. You are far in the game and you want to continue. You don't want to begin from scratch.
2. You have reached high levels in the guilds and you have changed your role because you want to train high level skills quickly - you will gain levels quickly so that you will be able to train in the guilds often. Reset adventures after the training.

Hello everyone, I'm jumping into this topic as I'm new also. Having
sworn ten years ago I'd never have a PC rule my home as well as work
and having, at that time, just weaned myself off the previous ten
years addiction via various 8bit and 16bit machines I have to admit
I've lapsed bigtime.....

I recently installed Wizards and Warriors and everything seemed,
looked and sounded OK. However, in the start village, Valeia, I can't
access the Town Hall although what I've previously read tells me it
should be there and I can only exit via the west/left-hand gate.
I can enter the other places ie temple, inn, armoury no problem.

I thought no more about the above but having just entered Ishan N'ha
I've found a town hall but find I can't exit from either gate and
appear to be trapped. This does not seem to be a "driver" issue that
I've read else where. Is this a system problem or case of user
error. Yours a very confused Dave.

erm..........regarding the role-changing-and-reseting-the-adventures thingy. say your previous role was about level 10 and now u train up until super high (say level 26???). if i reset the adventure now, will the previous quests be forgotten? or am i too late liaoz............pls. TELL ME!!!!!!

[WillowIX]

When resetting ALL quests are removed (and items)! If you have a level 26 ninja who previously was an assassin, you can´t go back to being an assassin. By resetting the game you can, since you haven't completed the assassin quest in the "new" game. Read Radek´s post thoroughly since he answers the question superbly. [img]smile.gif[/img]

DaveB,

Sounds like you've run into a standard technical glitch when running W&W on Win 2000 or XP. IIRC, the fix is the virtualdub routine -- take a look at the thread titled "Sazerac's Techie Help Desk", and you'll find answers.

That thread will soon be much smaller, as we're in the process of reorganizing it. While the boards took a break, so did we, but we'll get back on it shortly.

And one last thing that I don't think I've done.... welcome to the boards! May your travels in the Gael Serran prove to be enough to challenge you, but not enough to overcome you.

[LiOnHe@rT]

nonono, willowx. i was asking that if now i reset the adventure, will my previous classes remain or will they be forgotten? i tried it out but found out that my previous classes stayed behind.
For example, 1 of my character's path was wizard-->warlock-->paladin-->ninja. i resetted the adventure n found out that only my warlock class disappeared. is there something wrong with it??? pls. tell me coz i really wan the warlock class again!!!!!!!!!
