Go talk to Cedric at the Inn. Or Petra in Degolburg. Or see Merick at the Stables. Or a bunch of other places.

alpha phi

I see you added a new dag quest
is this the one you were writing yourself!
It is very good....and hard too.
"alpha went on a quest and was never heard from again"
Looking foward to tomorrow....
Must retrieve the holy lavalamp.

Ok, can anyone clue me in as to how to go about getting a house? I'd like a place to rest my bones.

ratbastid

Yep! That's my original work.

The game thing is written in PHP, and there's a very rich API for bolting new functions in. I'm working on a new forest special right now, probably have it up in a few days. I'm also going to be expanding that dagquest (which is pretty linear, I'll likely make it more randomized or at least with a branching path).

vermin

So what's the point of the clans? I started another one (Punchy Stabby Society) and can't figure out how to accept applicants.

I read elsewhere that the clans in the game don't provide any actual gameplay benefits, but just sort of serve as a place to post messages, talk with other players and whatnot. I could be wrong though.

grumpyolddude

Took 2 tries, but I scored yer friggin' lava lamp! How 'bout a fridge full of Guinness and Bass in the clan hall... a few black & tans to reward successful adventurers?

Neat game, rat. F'ckin' work and sleep keep getting in the way! And the kids and wife keep wanting time with the 'puter... damn!

1. Where the hell do you go to kill the dragon, is this a certian level thing?
2. Homes how do I get one?

Once again a great game, I find myself watching the clock to see if it's a "New" day yet .

Yes


Buy one
or save wood from the lumberyard

I completely agree
the best game I have played for a long time!

So do we have any more info about how to let people into clans for the other clan in the land? Being an applicant for about a week has me kind of wondering what the point is.

ratbastid

Hm... The clan "accept" link is fubared. I'm working on it.

In the meantime--who has a Squire? Who's found them useful?

Also in the meantime--every time this thread bumps we get like two to six new players. *BUMP*!!

alpha phi

I have a squire!
He is a great asset.
level 8
9 to 11 damage
he was weak at first,
but after much training
he has became quite the bada$$

I tripped across the means to acquire (or is it "hire") a wonderful squire (end of Dr. Suess impressions, I promise!) early on. I've named him "Slimmy Hoffa" and he is truly one bad mo-fo. I have to remember to revive him when I am resurrected, or my progress gets slowed way down.

Isn't there 2 "r"s in "fubarred"? (oops! wrong nonsense thread!)

I noticed at the LoGD homepage that there is a ".6" version. Could the upgrade fix the busted link? Just axxin'.

Mr Scorcex

Ooooh, so you can get your squire back after you die. I thought I just wasted 10 gems. I'll have to investigate this. Thanks for the update on the clan issue, RatBastid.

NoSoup

I'm all joined up... NoSoup's the name, kicking dragon ass is the game... so I hope

Out of curiosity, how do I use a free use point? The FAQ's don't cover them

Great game. The more you play, the better it gets!

NoSoup

They are just additional points that are utilized when activating your special powers...

Man, I got so ripped off. I saved a ton of wood, and after I killed the dragon the second time, I sold it all. Level 1 with the highest armor there was as well as a level 13 sword.

I slaughtered the first couple of level one enemies I found in the forest, and then I got my ass handed to me by a level 1. I got hit for 33 points of damage! I get to the graveyard, and begin to torment a level 1 soul... wouldn't you know, I was re-killed again. Guess having high end equipment in the beginning isn't all I thought it would be...

I still haven't figured out how to find a dragon to kill. I'm at level 9, about to go to 10, just enlisted a squire, have a stallion...

Where can I kills me a dragon?

Sounds like you were caught in a tornado. Read the screens, choose your actions well.

Okay I have like 35 wood and still can't build a farm, has anyone actually built one yet? I'll keep a chopping in the hopes to get a simple farm to rest my battle weary bones.

Has anyone been trapped in the storeroom in the Aria Dungeon? Is there a sequence of moves to reopen the door? Or should I just quit and wait for tomorrow to resurrect?

ratbastid

I think that plugin is broken. I'm trapped there too. I'm going to pull that thing and email its author, before we ALL end up stuck in there.

grumpyolddude

Thanks, rat! Sure will miss those resources I spent for that map, though!
