Re: Renaissance Fests

Hey lavalevel, I also live in Texas and make sure to spend a weekend camping at the TRF every single year. Let me know when you're going, I usually go the weekend before the last one; to avoid the massive crowds that both halloween weekend and the last weekend bring. If we're there at the same time,...

Re: [RTC] Tower of Champions HINTS & HELP *SPOILERS*

I figured out that kingly one pretty quick, just kinda had one of those moments of clarity where it made perfect sense. Now I'm on to the next one, and I know exactly where to go. I thought I had the right item too, but it seems like I may have been off base; but I can't imagine what other use there...

Re: [RTC] Tower of Champions HINTS & HELP *SPOILERS*

Wow, lots of advice since I posted yesterday. Thank you so much for the help, everyone. Can't wait 'til later today to go back & work on this one some more, I feel bad that I never completed the dungeon the first time; I made it to pit madness , which is where I am again right now. Totally frust...

Re: [RTC] Tower of Champions HINTS & HELP *SPOILERS*

Already tried using those other ones from the shop, it won't take them at all; plus the other old-school DM silver coin I get won't go anywhere either. I'm still pretty stumped on this one, and I'm also working on quenching the horse's thirst . I don't recall seeing anything that could even remotely...

Re: [RTC] Tower of Champions HINTS & HELP *SPOILERS*

I'm playing through this dungeon again, and it's been quite some time so it feels pretty new again; which is great, because now it's version 4.something or other and it's a completely different dungeon. I thought I remembered some things, and have been consistently proven wrong; meaning either I'm g...

Re: Legend of Grimrock

Re: Conflux III discussion thread - potential spoilers

I found that any old ring would keep that door open, but stormrings are actually kinda cool and I use them for face-punching; so mine still has charges left in it. Plus a stormring doesn't randomly jump into my hand in the middle of a fight when I don't really want it to. I meant to uncurse the one ...

I suppose that's something I haven't really tried yet, although I have been swinging when I try to move and can't, but there's nothing visible blocking me; and I've dealt some damage that way.

Re: Conflux III discussion thread - potential spoilers

Nothing I'm doing during that battle is what I'd call a strategy. It mostly involves flailing around and not getting fried. I found something interesting on the floor and tried to use it, but it really just prolongs the inevitable. Nothing on the walls seems to do anything useful at all, I'm just al...

I am having a really, really tough time figuring out what to do with the Archmaster of Mampang. It seems like things keep randomly appearing in the room, then vanish for no identifiable reason. Additionally, things are invisible; which I'm guessing is intentional, I just don't know what's going on a...

No, my computer's pretty new. I built it last february. I haven't had any issues with slowdowns or anything, not even in ToC or conflux. I guess it could be an issue of timing with this particular ram head, but I don't see how. There is no cooldown timer on it or anything. As soon as you step into t...

I know I'm more than a little late to the party as Upside-Down is concerned, but I'm having a fantastic time catching up. As with ToC, this dungeon has an addictive air about that makes it very difficult to walk away from; even at 4 in the morning. That being said, I have finally hit a place where I...
