Just a suggestion for the crafting skills - perhaps little mini games that cost a certain amount of gold to play, and depending on how well you do, your crafting skills would go up by X number of points? That would make the crafting system more immediately useful without being as simple as "Run the endless dungeon for cash to buy books" (which I did in the first game).

Is there a way to destroy boxes in dungeon? It seems I can't get to a part of a dungeon in other way:

This game was good just like the prequels, but it was very anti-climactic at the end. It would've been awesome to fight the Archmage or a resurrected version of him. I say that my favorite was the first one: Arkandian Crusade.

Betrayerkol you can get the award by stealing 20 light walls for whatever reason the game does not count darkwalls that has been my expierence

I am fairly certain the "walled cave" award is broken, as I have at least one of every wall stolen, and one time stole 24 walls on a single floor of a dungeon just to see if that would do it. Still no award...

Great game, spent hours playing it. My advice would be to add a few more dungeons and add a mini boss or two like someone mentioned here.

hey just saying the lvl up system in this game is great for the style and in my opinion you should probly keep it in all these type of games including my pet protector series

1/5 for the lag for freezing on the Liches tactical battle, for not giving the in-game achievements even when met twice over, and for the disenchanters being picky about if they will even work when picked up.
My computer isn't even 3 years old and is a fairly beefy machine (it should be at £900) and can play beefier 3d games than this with no problem.

I always wish you can use the healing spell out of battle and I can be automatic but........I really dampens the difficulty and hard work I usually put in the last 2 Arkandian games

for the hard badge, work on maxing out the following skills in this order preferably: artistry, alchemy, bargaining, scavenging. In between, farm for gold as much as possible (to cover the cost of crafting materials), and do the quests to get new alchemy recipes ... once you've maxed both artistry and alchemy, and have unlocked all the alchemy recipes, your equipment won't really matter much ... a few dozen each of the +10HP and +5MP elixers ... then make as many of the +1 dice oils as you can afford ... about 20 or so will be more than enough for anything the game throws at you ... run around in the dungeons a bit till you pick up a xd12 weapon (i picked up a 6d12 as a quest reward at this point) ... use all the oils, and you should be killing pretty much everything in one hit ... get some of the +1 protection elixers if necessary, but the +10HP ones are cheaper and easier ... after that, just whizz through the rest of the campaign, and claim your hard badge ...

Fiamman, the quality is an option by right clicking on this game window, I don't know if it will help though, this game has some really weird lag no can figure out.

There needs to be H M L qualities, I get shit for FPS on this particular game and I'm not sure why, no other games, just this one.

Old Dungeon is completable, you just need to use the sledgehammer item on the decoration. always carry one when you can.

observe: at 0 observation skill you see two tiles in all directions. At 201-1000, the max, you see three tiles in all directions. Really? It seems fruitless...where's the looking love? Why not add one more tile at 1000 at least?

I`d love a full screen option. If not in this one, maybe in the next installment. Other than that tiny thing, I'm loving the series. Strangely addictive. Cheers :)

Random tips #2 (don't read if you don't want help)
5. With crafting, start by experimenting and just use one basic resource each time and increase your artistry skill. Get this high enough so you have a high chance to use a recipe, start making those to increase the other skills. Try to raise your various crafting skills by creating items earlier in the game as you gain skill points easier while your skill level is low. There are dungeons and tactics that will give you skill points and it's nicer when those bump you higher when it's harder to level those skills. (you are going to wish there was a hot key for doing this)
6. Jumping between weapon types tends to help increase your tactics skill more which will help improve hit rate with your main weapon type when it quits leveling on the lower level enemies.

Random tips #1 (don't read if you don't want help)
1. Find a mage that does low dmg and guard as long as you can to lvl your spell resist skill. It gains lvl quickly and it's great to have life leach spells hit you for 0
2. Every 200 mana lore skill increases your heal spells by 1 dice. Best way to increase this is to use a magic weapon for attacking with
3. Start of the game save your $$ up so you can buy a 3D10 weapon. Makes dungeon crawls a lot easier and gives you more options to level your skills as you can gamble with lower life knowing you can kill enemies quicker. You will have this weapon for awhile
4. Under Shop > Armourer, buy and sell the custom shoes is the best way to increase your bargain skill. The higher your skill the less money you spend doing this. It also helps lower the cost of getting the higher backpacks. I would wait to get the higher end backpack until you've done this and maxed out your bargaining skill as you lower the top back packs cost by 1000s of gold

a difficulty setting would be nice, for those of us that like to just get completely destroyed and stuck in a game :)
