I noticed from the board that there are quite a number of people who are replaying the game... Here are a few suggestions of things that you might not have done, first time around..
1. Find the treasure under the Nymph's house 2. Kill a belfry spider in the Serpent Temple 3. Donate boogre brew to the idol in Boogre Prison 4. Abuse the genie and get zillions of wishes out of the lamp 5. Enter Boogre Prison through the back and get your own back at the poisonous lilies 6. Create an assassin and complete the Grue Morde quest from the pawn shop in Ishad N'Ha 7. Bless a wizard's blade with damage (artifact of fiends) 12 times.. 8. Obtain the second Brimloch Roon magic shop quest (bark horrors) and tree surf/vanish to Lost Sea 9. Obtain the second Brimloch Roon bushi dojo quest (slay bloodbeard) 10. Obtain the third Brimloch Roon pawn shop quest (find Talon's Fang) Here are also some suggestions for some harder challenges: 1. Kill Gezzerd'Ra in Skull Castle 2. Restart the game and kill Oakenmir in less than an hour (quick way to get 10 million exp) 3. Restart the game and save Gael Serran again in under two hours 4. Replay the game with only a single wizard using no role changes and no hand-me downs (gold included) |

Yes, Wyvern, I have done all of the things in the list above. The most interesting was taking a solo pixie wizard through the entire game. Wizards do not have pick lock skill nor the disarm trap spells so figuring out how to open chests is a real challenge. On top of this, I chose to play with a pixie so his strength was initially one, ho hum…

Excellent!!! ;D
I'm a bit too busy these days to be playing much of anything but I'll keep your list in mind if I do happen to find a window of opportunity! Thanks for posting the list! Wyv |

Here is the absolute challenge:
To complete the game with only one character without using any kind of cheats or trick, no save/reload (except when you're done playing for the day) and when you die, to start over with a new character. That's how I first finished the game... 6 months after starting playing [img]smile.gif[/img] |

Ryanamur: I agree with you playing with only one character unaided is challenging. The hardest imho is choosing a wizard and not changing roles at all..

How do you get zillions of wishes out of the genie?

You call the Genie and before he's done talking, you drop the lamp and change character. A more lenghty description of how to acheive this is probably found in the Best Tips.

Here, I got a new fun one for you:
Kill Eareasthmador in one strike! I can be done (I lived to speak of it but you'll have to slay him... critical strike that kills in one blow)!
