Title: Monsters tougher?
Post by: Mordaan on March 29, 2005, 08:18:48 pm

I haven\'t downloaded the latest update (and problably won\'t until it makes me  ;) ), but have the monsters been made tougher or is that just a bug?  I just got to the point in the tefy pit of taking them out in 3 blows, now its up to 6.  I\'m doing the same amount of damage, they can just take twice as much.  No biggie, just wondering.

There was a HP issue. Some monsters got wrong (too few) HP. That is fixed now.

Greetings,

Well theres also those few monsters who are abnormally stronger then others. I have foughten rats that seem to hit me for 5x the dmg i take from others.. not to much difference in the health ratio tho.

so how do you tell the difference *before* picking a fight with them?

not that it much matters at present, the weeak ones kill me too, the strong ones just kill me faster...

If you bring up the info screen on your selected target you will find small differences in the names of these creatures .. they are connected to their strength ;)

.. at least they used to be but I think they still are.

Yep, anytime you go exploring, when you do something for the first time, always be ready for the worst. Just common sense. :)
