Title: So, my first spell.
Post by: zanzibar on June 03, 2005, 12:22:27 am

I can now do the whole fire thing.  How effective is it once you start levelling up?  How good does your red way have to be before the fire spell is comparible to level 35 in swords?

You won\'t be able to get it that strong for a while yet I \'m afraid.

I \'m trained max in the Red Way, which is 5 if I \'m not mistaken. With that I can kill a rat with two fireballs if I put the slider on 30%. Anything more than that will give you a fail rate that is too high.

So before you can beat level 35 in swordmanship, you \'ll have to wait to train your skill high enough. Though if I compare level 5 in the Red Way with level 5 in wielding any weapon magic does seem to do more damage and it is ranged.

I think it is this what should not be explained.
people should discover it on their own or ask friends. But not  at public forums asking for help random person.

I do not seen what I have explained aside from giving a simple example of the current power of the Red Way spells available.

I haven\'t told him where to train, which glyphs to combine, ... The only hint I gave is how I use the slide bar. Aside from that I realize what you want to do but this is a game in progress and things don\'t always make sense. Do you know how frustrating it is to look for something a normal person would expect and then to hear it isn\'t implemented yet after you \'ve spend hours and hours looking for it in the game?

So I \'ll have to respectfully disagree here.

Things that shouldn\'t be asked and explained on the forums are trainer locations and glyph combinations.

Yes yes, children. The Ways of the Arcane are not for the weak-minded or impatient. This was established long ago. Now go back to your metal toys that you pretend to master, and leave the real power to those of us who are more worthy.

Fireball??  There are new spells?  Or did you just mean flame burst.
