Dex will affect speed and ac.
Str will affect max weight, wc and damage.
Con affects the hp.
Int affects the chance to learn things. (As does Luck and your mental level)
Wis affects the chance to learns prayers and also affects two other things: Grace regeneration and your max grace.
Cha will affect how the shop keeper likes you, therefor giving you a better price on his items.

Pow also affects max_sp and max_grace... the more the better

Thanks

Another question - what exactly does the imptovement potion do - I used one, it said something about remaking me closer to the god's image, and without a change of basic stats I got 2 more HP... I think it works at random, if so, can it give even permanent additions to stats?

And is there something like a permanent speed potions, or are items worn the only way to increase it?

It improves HP, MP, Grace, Carrying Capacity, then back to HP. At every level your HP/MP/Grace/Carry goes up by a random factor, the roll of a dice. What the Improvement Potion does is maximize that roll for that level-up, starting at Level 1 and not to exceed your current level for obvious reasons.

I bought scroll of concealment today and suceeded to learn hiding. I can see it in the /skills under agility. But I got it nowhere in the skills-menu, so I'm wondering - how can I use it? °°

Everything that makes you go invisible is disabled for now.

Ah - reminds me of classic.... and probably better that way, I just hope some day it'll turn out that I didn't waste my money...

Hm... while we're at it... about wc and ac - what exactly do they do? I know the lower the better, but how do they join the calculation? Do they give the chance of how likely it is to be hit, or suceede in a blow? Or do they add to the damage and physical resistance?

wc(weaponclass) gives a better chance to strike
ac(armourclass) gives a better chance to make the other person fail.

Am I the only one asking for information?

Anyway... is there a special reason for my Str and Speed being written in the same color as the overall exp is?

zell12 · #10 05-25-2003, 01:16 PM

Is there a reason you keep asking so many pointless questions?

Satrek2000 · #11 05-25-2003, 05:09 PM

Yes - general curiosity and the thought that this thread is about asking questions. If you don't like them, concider it pointless or whatever, that's okay, just ignore me. I for one have no idea why str and speed are the same color as overall exp, the background color of the menu itself, and was wondering whether there is a reason for that - or whether it's a pointless coloring.

It has to do with the opacity of the window, it's a bug related to video cards. I experience the same problem.

Okay, sorry, I was .. uh .. gone for a while .. but if any of your questions here went unanswered (too big to check them all) just repost and I'll answer them ..

I bought transferrence today, and using it three times I was filled with Chaos once and heard voices twice... what exactly is this spell there for?^

Also, so far I've seen 2 player glow red for a time... not followers of DianCecht... any idea what's behind that?

Transferrence gives magic to other players. The glowing red usually shows up when someone is blessed by Aengus or uses one of his weapons (it says "your hands start glowing red")
