SOTF Sins of the Father

[Chaos-Shaman]

masta, I just started playing again today, have you found the

Spoiler

cross key for the cemetery?

I have only found the

Spoiler

ful rune

how many have you found? I need fire! I don't know where to go to

Spoiler

fix the ring

or find

Spoiler

pyro and sand

[the master]

Chaos your about the same as me. I have just killed the Spectre and he has

Spoiler

dropped the sythe

. Now i may be wrong but i think the sythe

Spoiler

could be used to cut through a hedge

trouble is which one. I could be wrong. I too havent found the

Spoiler

fire, key or anything

. Stewy doesnt seem to be forthcoming with even the smallest of hints. I have the

Spoiler

ful rune

[Chaos-Shaman]

we're on the same page then masta. i'll start hacking at everything that looks like a passage. I can see other guards and monsters through those trees so maybe i'll start to swing there. I am worried about running out of torches, it's dark and dangerous out there. what characters did you grab to use?

[the master]

I have 2 top fighters, the top wizard and an apprentice wizard. I am sure we are missing some absolutely obvious things. I think it has got to be a

Spoiler

hedge to hack through to open up another area.

keep updating here and i will do the same if and when i find something new.

[Chaos-Shaman]

I just hacked at the

Spoiler

entire perimeter

, not a thing. maybe we need to use the

Spoiler

scepters power on some spot, not sure.

I will look through inventory. did you find out what the mushrooms are for?

I chose the characters Ivan, Pulma, Seth and Saphire.

I tried to kill one of those

Spoiler

brownish red trees but couldn't, maybe we should try killing the apple tree as well

[the master]

Think the mushrooms are

Spoiler

for eating

. However

Spoiler

be careful as some are poison

. Make a note of which ones do what.

[Chaos-Shaman]

yeah, I ate them and found out already, how about the

Spoiler

digger pops, it is consumable but when in hand it has no eat, it seems special

did you figure out how to open the other door in the hall of champions?

[Chaos-Shaman]

have you figured out what the black poles are in the champion rooms? never mind I figured it out... go back there and check it out

[the master]

Will have a look at the digger pops. The door

Spoiler

has light on but if you wait they do go off, just wonder if its possible to open when lights off

. Other thing is

Spoiler

the cage, says it can be put in fire.

[the master]

No idea about the black poles. If you have the rope maybe go back and try to climb down.

[stewy]

Some hints
1. If you have found the chosen ones, it will help you out on burnt out things, not to shocking
2. If you have released the poor souls should shed some light
3. No shrubs are hackable on this level.
4. Excuse the spelling

I will say it again, the first few levels are not perfect. once you get up on the castle roof you will see what I mean.
But bear with it because it get better. I also thought I made it to easy. I was mistaken. Thanks again for the comments
and I will help out every way I can, and keep a lookout for my friend Rocky

[Chaos-Shaman]

the answers are back at the champions room.

[the master]

Stewy would burnt out things be

Spoiler

a burnt out torch?

[the master]

Come on Chaos be a bit more specific.

[Chaos-Shaman]

I can't find that cross key, I found the chosen ones, ahhh you mean it works on the

Spoiler

storm ring

I hacked almost everything already. I have light finally this is a well made dungeon. I had a couple of crashes but it was not a big deal, I save often. off to fix the ring and check out the ghost specter.

[Chaos-Shaman]

metal to stone masta.

[stewy]

The hint I gave on the poor souls was off. I should of said was, sit down, calm down, have a drink
Torch no, but do not give up

[the master]

Now I'm cooking on gas. If you think things were difficult wait until you get past the gate. Presume you have done the following:

Spoiler

got the flame from the grate by putting the cage in the fire

Spoiler

charge up the ring in the room of champions

Spoiler

go to the tree with the bodies and throw the cage with the flame at it

Spoiler

put the ring in a wizards right hand and you can see a spell under punch

Spoiler

use this spell on the tree to kill it

Spoiler

when you have killed the tree you will find the Cross key and another rune

Now you can help me. You say you can make light but even though i have the right runes when i make up the spell nothing happens. Perhaps you can enlighten me (sorry).

[Chaos-Shaman]

I'm going to try and roast it with a bolt, ahh posted at the same time, that's where I am headed

[the master]

Found the

Spoiler

the grave that needs repairing but trying to work out what to repair it with

[stewy]

Back in the days when my old tube tv was not working I had a unique way of getting it to work

[the master]

Think I have done what your suggesting stewy

Spoiler

hit it

and

Spoiler

its split into 2 so presume I now have to fit it back together with something

[Chaos-Shaman]

getting back to it today,

Spoiler

found stairs down that are blocked in the cemetery

headed back out the cemetery, those

Spoiler

ghost hounds are brutal

Spoiler

didn't find a grave that needs repairing yet

,

Spoiler

found the castles map

there is so much in this dungeon, amazing work stewy. how long did you say this took to make? you seem to have changed everything that can be changed, stunning man, absolutely stunning!

[Chaos-Shaman]

oh, I had a TV like that stewy what puzzles me right now is why there are not that many playing this well executed designed piece of work that makes DM such a great game. it must be lack of time. to those who have not tried it out I think you'll love it.

the sound effects in the graveyard had me going right away, my spouse yelled out to me and said, "what the hell are you playing" I hear a

Spoiler

baby, oh and the ghosts sounds were stellar

i played for 5 hours yesterday it was so fun.

my only negative remark is the restart error, takes a bit of time to restart the thing up since it is over 60 meg. do you know why that crash happens, is this a bug with RTC? never the less it really doesn't matter because this game keeps the player wanting to come back. i can't wait to start today.

[Chaos-Shaman]

masta, did you figure out how to

Spoiler

heal wounds?

[the master]

Got this from stewy so cant take the credit. Think this applies to poison not healing though.

Spoiler

what makes you sick makes you better

in other words

Spoiler

if you eat a poison mushroom eat another to cure yourself

. I have now found the grave that needs repairing

Spoiler

look for the grave with the blue flower and then hit it with something, be careful though there is something nasty waiting for you

. Have you

Spoiler

dropped down the pits yet

.

[Chaos-Shaman]

wow, what a game. I have dropped down a lot of pits. have two flasks and 5 runes, need the vi rune. earned the delta sword, a bunch of new weapons, stairs leading down, maybe a sword can break that which blocks it. max damage with cleave axe is 98. Ivan is now a wizard. I would say this dungeon was well thought out. there is a difficult pit puzzle, it has a rune in it, I don't need it right now but I spent at least an hour trying to get out with every item I had. the riddle is

Spoiler

poke and grab

. I love the bone head soup, mmmm. the sound effects of the cemetery is what I'd expect from a top quality job at being scary. the pit with the

Spoiler

spider gives an awesome reward

I spent another 5 hours playing this game today, what a joy

[Chaos-Shaman]

finally found the

Spoiler

grapple to climb, it was down those stair in the cemetery

i can't stop playing

[stewy]

Was it with one real big ghost?

[Chaos-Shaman]

yes stewy, it was a big ghost. love all the new monsters. i have a second level master wizard seth, needs more mana though.

i am stuck

Spoiler

can't open a door for gold key or master key on roof top

where should i go to find it. killed everything i ran into. is there a place that still needs to use the grapple?

masta, where are you at?
