- air elementals appear long before the Ethereal Blade can be collected Don't think that's the case, at least if you know where the Ethereal Blade is and how to get it. Even if you don't know, you get access to the hint to open the cemetary gates before you encounter the first air elemental(in stor...

Sadly forgot to copy it before I rerolled and quicksaved over it. Disk wasn't full and I don't think it's failling(yet), didn't have an issue with other stuff. Steam cloud saving disabled globally specifically because of potential issues with it. I've just been making more saves other than quicksave...

This is what's in the grimrock.log that gets created when I try to load my quicksave. Other saves work fine and I had no issues so far doing quick saves/quick loads, but it got corrupted this time and doesn't look like I can reload it anymore. === Software Failure === [string "SaveGame.lua"...

A healing potion does just fine. To sum up:
Disease: Heal potion
Famine: Food
Cold: Cloth(any armor?)
Battle: Weapon

There's a soft cap of 13-14, getting higher would involve farming mobs in the last boss room for a while, or lizards for even a longer amount of time. You also get 3 skill books(+5skill) and 1 fire book(+3firemagic) that you can work into your builds, as well as the Skilled trait(+3 on creation).

Na I think it is highly doable the 4 rogue party. Oh well yea, but not all ranged. And I'm pretty sure wotc have trademarked the illithids, so maybe that explains the hands I think in theory you could have all 4ranged rogues, but it'd be pretty tough early game. Two with throwing weapons(there's en...

Unlike open ended RPGs, there's really not much to do in this besides playing the game. If you spend 30hours to solve the game, good for you, it doesn't mean anyone who can solve it in 15 rushed, but simply that they can solve puzzles faster than you, that's all there is. There's no need for walkthr...

Yeah both my frontline used Evasion and Skilled traits, don't feel any other is really worth it besides Agressive if you want more DPS(or mino skull one if you don't have a mino backline and want more DPS as it's the biggest DPS trait by far once you progress a bit).

There is a lot of talk going on here about how to get IN the fighters challenge, though I find it a lot harder to get OUT of it alive. Depends on your team setup really but on hard difficulty, I couldn't prevent my mage from dying in the dozen or so attempt I gave it, so I gave up and just finished...

I'd say Dismantler is easier to miss than Nex if you're not a completionist. Nex is part of a necessary puzzle for the game, you might not notice there's one additional step at the end, but it's right there in front of you when you get the key you need to progress to the next level(arguably though y...
