A Good Start!

@ ISH

The idea is to "sneak" through the castle and grab the chest without fighting any ghosts. What could be an easier fight than the one you don't fight at all??

[Ish]

True, I suppose I just prefer to fight everthing unless I have no other option.

[travelingoz]

Well when your only level 1 still, fighting in the castle is definitely no option!

Yes.
Once i had offer "Banner of true fate" and "Gladiator's Sword" in this two castles. Items are very important and sadly non-castle buildings don't give good offer if any at all.

How do you do that? At the beginning, the mentor won't let me exit the place without completing my training?

Save the game before doing the training (even speaking to him), opt not to do the training and you'll be allowed out straight away to check what's available.

Well that's what I'm guessing. I havent done that in the two games I've played. Will defo try next game though.

Ok i did like you said: started a new character, entered the dungeons and saved my game. Then i spoke with the mentor and said i didn't want to do the training, so he dismiss me and gives me the crappy sword. I exit the dungeons, enter the first castle (with King Darion and princess Amelie) and check stuff, then the other little castle a couple feet on the left (with the priests). Then i reload and...i end up always with exactly the same scrolls/items, game after game, again and again. No randomness involved.
What gives?

<EDIT>
Well, no big deal, actually. The thing that DID work was to start a new char from scratch every time, select class, name etc etc. then, upon exiting the dungeons the items/scrolls ARE randomized
Now i need a thread about good items and good spells.

Ok, ok, let's face it: i am a newb, and i dunno jack about the game: i have no idea which spells (and how!) to use, which monsters to get and how to use any given monster
Hm, probably, the best thing to do in my position is just to put the pedal on the metal and go rampaging exploring and fightig stuff around until i get the hang of the game mechanics Only THEN will we talk about superior tactics again

Here is a list of quests I have completed with only doing one fight (against the Robbers to get the plugens).

Fishing Limits
Speaking Stone
The Headless Skeleton
The Deserted Castle
The Lost Cargo of Skipper Gek
The Kings Brother
Stinky Elixer
Donations For The Temple
Lost Town Chronicles
A Secret Weapon
Carl And Martha
Dragon Tooths Tavern
Escaped Bear
Talking Bird
Peace Pact
Breeding Evil Beholders
Enchanted Love
Rescue The Frogs

I then fought the Turtle and completed

The Black Mark
Her Weight In Gold
Fallen Dirigble
A Holy Indulgence

So I was just under level 6, with over 4000 Leadership and a stack of Runes before I even started fighting. Probably could of done more but I wanted to start fighting. Not a bad start for my impossible Warrior game.

Sorry mate, thought that was a given.
