Damn... This game is hard. Died in the Ice battle against the Wizard of Yendor...
Kudos to you justin wang. This game is an great improvement over RF3. The biggest plus for me was the geatly increased variety of skill/item effects.
Keep up the good work!
The final challenge of this game is to get to the highest win-streak (in the highscores).
For everyone who struggles to beat the game. Use "E" to auto-explore, then as soon as you see an enemy use the numpad to move and the mouse to attack. Don't make more then 1 Round per second. I often think something around 10 seconds about the next move in a room full of enemies.
I play this game daily since 3 years. My lessons learned:
- always hit and run if you can
- always have at least one "last resort" item: Scroll of Inferno, Potion of Resistance, Scroll of teleport or the like
- The Charm of healing is the best item in the whole game.
- Prefer rings that provide bonuses to Attributes (strenght, dex or intelligence)
- Avoid items that reduce your maximal HP, except if you really know what you're doing
- Storm mages can shoot around corners even if they can't see you
- Two Dark elf storm mages can deal 60 Damage in two turns,
- With 3 Blinks (scroll of blinking or Charm of blinking) and one scroll of inferno you wil be able to rush level 15 in like 10 seconds
- Never use a scroll of inferno when webbed or standing in grass. You'll cook yourself.
- Electric shocks PROPAGATE THROUGH STEAM be careful!
- Sewers are easy (just hit and run), Arcane tower is a fkn Deathtrap (except as Ranger)
- "The Core" without fire resistance is suicide.
If you're careful this game isn't that hard, except the first 20 tries or so until you figured out how enemies move and that you should employ hit and run tactics.
Newbe tip: DON'T buy the rockster. It is just taking up ages to spawn and blocks all the ball spawns. It's also tanking your towers so the balls aren't quickly destroyed. It's just annoying. Ball with RP reward upgrade brings more gold and spawns much faster.
Magic Heist is buggy, it's not increasing max Trickery (but claims this in the descriptsion) Also max arcana is not increased by pacing, did it for an hour watching the stat closely, nothing happened...
Play barbarian (warrior that is prohibited from magic, who has nearly useless "rage" skill AND cooldowns takes forever) = active skills nearly useless, all magic related skill tomes that you find are wasted.
Best case: most enemys weak melees, you find melee weapons and scrolls
Arcane tower will kill you 90% of the time. Same for The Core (just forget it, lots of ranged high damage monsters)
The barbarian needs a +1 to all magic resistances from the start and way to actually survive.
On the contrary, the easiest class to play is the ranger:
-Ranged weapons have greatest reach of all weapons
-Dex will give you evasion
-Carry heavy armor without damage reduction (stealth is mostly useless anyway)
- +3 Short-bow + strafe attack + any armor is enough to win the game 90% of the time
-laugh at barbarians who struggle for survival since the early game
It's nice to see the formula for the calculation, but the formulas are incomplete. Is the base damage for reflection calculated before or after block points? Are bosses except form instakill? ... stuff like this needs to be clarified..
The last update was great! Better overall looks really contribute to the game.
Also it's not too easy. But I wish there were some active component like spells that are manually cast and do damage/buffs/debuffs or something
So it just stops after the "strange machine"? Nothing more todo apart from grinding skill points? This is a nice game, but needs to have some more stuff to unlock. If it's not more enemys, make it items, ressources, personal armys of captured creatures, real estate, dungeon stocks or something...
The bubble weapon is a liability from midgame onwards, shots are slower and the weapon seems much weaker. Started avoiding this, Maybe adding the weapon instead of replacing it would be better...
I'd like to propose an improvement... add synergies between the different branches. It is a bit easy to focus on just one branch plus it's the only working strategy. If you had combinations however... that would be a lot more interesting!
This game should use servertime instead of pc time! Its really annoying to see bids end on times that are long gone in my timezone, whereas my bids end on the right time in my timezone
I wish there was an Message System, that would tell you if your stuff has been sold and if someone attacked you in PVP (battle report?) And you should be able to search for a specific name of a player to attack
Hi, id like to contribute something aswell. There should be the option to save ship module konfigurations, so I dont have to put it all back together when I switch the ship.
Only thing i have to criticize is that there are many ships that are too similar. It would be better to have less ships with more significant differences.
Oh... And small ships should really be faster than big ones
and thanks for the great Game! Great indeed.
