Re: How do i lose honor as pure palidin in Shadows of darkne

Define "pure" Paladin since technically there is no such thing. Also, you'll need to keep your Honor fairly low as the trigger for Healing Hands (and thus the magic points) is in the 225 - 230 point range. Anyways, all character classes can trap Will o' Wisps until daylight which will &quo...

Re: Schwarzenegger v. EMA

Surprising no one, the Supreme Court sided with the EMA. The final vote was 7 - 2, with the dissenters being Justices Thomas and Breyer. The full decision, with both dissenting and concurring opinions, can be found as a PDF on SupremeCourt.gov.

Ah, of course, the inventory cheat. I can't believe I forgot about that. That would add 6 points to my list (three for fencing an item with Dinarzad and three for the Blackbird for Ferrari). You are indeed correct that you "ended" with 628 points. As to gaining 153 points for Paladinhood, ...

Re: Becoming A Paladin As Magic User

Freeing Julanar and the beast are more or less irrelevant to becoming a Paladin (short of doing something inherently dishonorable). Attacking the Griffin costs you 5 Paladin Points. The game is designed to compensate for not getting the Fighter-only elements of EOF and returning Soulforge; as such, ...

Ouch, Radogol. Still, you have to admit, the gnome's name is an excellent example of the supposed "dumbing-down" effect what with the difference between the versions of the game. Still, I tend more to think of that as removing a touch of "moon logic" rather than dumping a old-sty...

Re: Can't finish off Ad Avis

Was it always like this or have you tweaked it? Any character with Reversal had to do things the wizard's way in the original as well. You don't even go into battle mode against the gargoyle since a Fighter can't cast with the shield out. If you want to test it yourself, just have a Fighter suck a ...

Heh-heh-heh. C'mon, MI, it just wouldn't be right for there not to be another delay for DNF. Plus, you've got to give Gearbox credit for getting in front of the flood of trolling they're about to experience.

Re: Six Hundred and Fifty-Four Points!

On a whim, I tested this. The maximum possible score you can end the game with simply by switching character classes (and some use of the room teleport function) is 679 points (622 points in the regular game, 57 additional Paladin Points). Since the game is locked while performing the actions that w...

Re: Emily Morganti's "Quest for Glory" Article in Games Maga

It's great timing. We get the QfG article right after Emily announced she's got a Gabriel Knight article in the most recent issue (106) as well.

Has the PDF been taken down? It doesn't seem to work for me.
