TIP: at the start of the game buy the leather armor and collect six shells combine 3 of them with other 3 to make plate and then combine the armor to the plate and to make the plate armor!

Fireball, poison shot & ice shard spells -- Need to be target castable it sucks seeing it fly by a monster just because it moved 1 inch away from the cast.

I spend FOREVER trying to craft the MorningStar only to discover the Razor Sword had the SAME ATTACK. I could have had a HUNDRED Razor swords if I didn't have to keep selling Iron to make room in my backpack.
3 Iron ores+3 Iron ores= Iron Igot.
3 Iron Igots+ Alkahest= Iron Globe.
5 Iron Globes+ Wooden Sword= Razor Sword

In the start of the game already craft a Nail Bat (1 iron ingot made by crafting 3 iron ore with 3 iron ore and a timber made by crafting 3 wood with 3 wood), and you kill most monster in few hits :)
Then later on combine 3 iron Ingots with Alkaheist to get iron globe and forge that with Nail bat to get Vindicator and own everything :)

Two suggestions:
1) It would be amazing if the pets evolved and gained additional attacks
2) If we were allowed to carry two pets, then there could be some good harmony between the pets and me
3) How about pets collecting items for you?

Big request: some storage to hold all my unique items that I don't want to dispose of. I either have to focus nearly everything into strength or I get weighed down by everything.

Closed the crafting window while in the process of crafting (just for the lols) and ended up with a white screen. Browser reset was the only option.

Hey guys! I figured out the problem with not getting past the second screen in the tutorial! It's a firefox thing and it has to do with the flash player. I can't find the article I found to fix it but you have to go into your flash settings and mess with them. I'll look for the proper article.

The bad parts part 1: the plot disappeared around the time I reached the center town, and in the end cutscene, nothing was really explained. The battle system based on stamina is awkward, the bosses are too easy, you won't need even a tenth of the money you're bound to gather, emerald / sapphire / ruby / gold nodes spawn very rarely (I got ONE gold node in the whole game, and not enough of the other nodes to gather 6 of any kind of shard to make a full gem). Targeting is very difficult and positioning of yourself and monsters can be very deceptive. Ranged weapons are almost useless due to that. Never once was my pet in any danger of dying, even when I had it tank the final boss by itself, so that makes the whole hatching system rather unappealing (certainly better than the first one, though).

Anyone that wants to bypass waiting 1 hour + for your egg just move your computers clock forward 1 day, collect your egg, than move it back and there you go no wait time.

OK, manage to get the badge with a magic build character. What you need to do is equip the level 1 freeze, fire, and poison attacks, as well as the level 3 lightning and poison. Use the level 3 attack to clear the screen, have pet as agressive so he attacks the boss, and get behind the boss. While he's facing away, do the freeze attack. If it freezes, do the other two attacks. Repeat. Be ready to heal / recharge mana.

@JUBILEE321: Wow, the link to http://guidology.com/2011/05/03/castaway-2-crafting-guide is pretty much a miniature Wikia. Thanks for the link.

The game is good, much better than castaway 1, but i feel, as with the last game, it needs more major towns, or at least towns with saving spots and pet kennels. I hate using over 400 coins to warp back and forth places for a few eggs

Forgotten Forge is an excellent and fairly easy place to train.
Although it's late in the game, if you use the attack techniques in the skill bar you can kill most bosses up to this point with 3 hits and just run through.
You get around 2500 exp in under 2 minutes

Would be nice if Crafting Quests could be registered as complete based on whether or not that recipe is in your recipe book. It's annoying to craft a weapon or armour you only need one of, only to find you need to do it again just for a quest.

Maybe u should add pets not certainly evolving but when they get to the level that an upper form of them is like baby blue beedle becomes a blue beedle at lvl 4 something like that would be appriciated!

Step 1: Walk into an area full of mobs.
Step 2: Put pet on aggressive
Step 3: Make sandwich and watch TV
Step 4: ???
Step 5: XP profit

So, to sum up anyone's wantings:
1) Storage space! For crafting resources and quest items!
2) More crafting recipes, and use of some materials, like treated leather
3) Balanced ore system! Add the ores to be avavabile in shops, or add something that removes grinding to collect ores requried to complete quests
4) Gold is very unimportant. Add something to balance this.
5) Make that sold items can be re- bought for a higher price
6) Add a better map, i can't see what is the way from square A to square B, cause map don't show this.
+ if you want these IN-game! These can make good game into great game.

For those curious about how to play this with SuperNova SWF Enabler plug-in, use this address provided below by copying the entirety of it and pasting it onto the address bar at the top of your browser to ensure that it bypasses the ‘GameShell’ issue that have plagued many earlier games of Kongregate: supernova://play/?swfurl=https://chat.kongregate.com/gamez/0011/3321/live/castaway2.swf?kongregate_game_version=1307118381 Make sure that your latest installation of SuperNova works correctly, as it will not function if it cannot load games that can work fine without this bypassing of the SWF files here (Used Google Chrome dev tools to get the link).

Completionist warrior pro tips: When possible, you should buy literally everything in the gear shop but 2 rusty daggers and no Regal Sword. You can instead craft it with Leather and Militia. You'll need all that stuff for crafting, except the Plate armor is just for early defense. Alternatively you can craft the Plate armor from Shells (Plates) and Leather armor, or skip it. You should mine ores when you see it (green dot on mini-map), but you get plenty through quests and boss drops so you don't have to grind for them. If you're like me and dumped all your stats into STR, you'll find that everything is incredibly lethal. Flying enemies can 1-shot you from off-screen with lightning! To attempt to kill them, you can try to stun them, or get in close (or send your pet) so they'll resort to melee attacks. The enemies that sweep down or spit poison can be avoided by simply standing diagonal while you attack. This is easier with long range weapons, which have deceptive SQUARE hitboxes.

There needs to be something so you can craft instead of 1 potion at a time you can make for example 3 or 4 at a time.

Could you add the option to reassign points? I'm a warrior but I'd like to be a mage, and and other people would probably want to be able to assign points too. + if you agree so they'll see. Thank you!

Guys, if you've crafted an item before you came across the quest, don't sweat about it. It will still be completed, just come talk to the Sigil 2 minutes or so later. It worked for me, so it should work for everyone else. Just a tip :). + so everyone knows and doesn't try to craft/waste materials on it again!

i was originally going to be a mage, but because of the need to hold items, i had to keep improving strength so im not really a mage anymore, i desperately need storage space!!!

I love how if you manage to back enough monsters into a corner you can just own house on like... 50 monsters at once.

I really like this game. 5/5 There are 2 problems I have though. 1. From what I have seen (I've only started the game, a few hours in) you can't change your characters name. I thought at first this game would be dumb, so I put in a joke name, and now I regret it. 2. Maybe making the "agility" stat increase the recharge rate of stamina by a LITTLE BIT per point.

I really hate the ice levels. It slides you into an enemy, you hit it and get knocked back and then slide into it again, repeat until dead.

Keep this comment alive if you want an overpowered weapon early in the game! Get yourself 5 iron globes and craft it with a wooden sword to get the razor sword! 28 strength! It is as powerful as the morning star!
