Day 10
Trynton - Arnika - Marten's Bluff - Umpani

1st collected Vi and Saxx

We returned to Trynton to kill the breaders and the boss rat, dropped drugged meat & gave a shop keeper his item then repaired the spaceport and used it to track the black ship... we also remembered to clean up the grave yard on our way to Arnika

We then trekked back to Marten's old place to tell him 10:24 yipee and got a new quest to enter Umpani to talk to a spy, got his fake pass [killed him for his portal key], used the fake pass to enter the roof and then reported him as a spy... searching the cave system for the touche proved costly because of the spiders and our generally low water resist but we got there in the end

[current level 14 - 16]

Day 11
Northern Wilderness

Just a quick weapon run before dinner ;)

[current level 14 - 16]

Get the Staff of Doom/Diamond Eyes/Cloak of Many Colors soon.

I sold both the Staff of Doom and Giant sword as they aren't needed... Vi got the mace and Mina (Ninja - Bishop) gets the cloak ... I'm going sorcerer heart hunting next ;)

To be honest, I don't ever sell unique items like that, because I'd never be able to get them again.

Day 12
South East Wilds

We fight in 3 step;... almost got my party wiped but saved it because of all my rez amulets

step 1 = step out fully buffed and pick on the 6 little guys with range spells and bombs to try and kill them fast

step 2 = run away outside and part way down the hill to draw off the pets

step 3 = patch myself up and come back to pick off the stragglers

We then looked around for another Gad-it part and gave fang to Blaze (my Samurai)


[current level 15 - 17]

I'm pretty sure that anybody can equip the Cloak of Many Colors, all 6 of your party members. You just have to rest 24 hours for Bela to restock. I believe that the area right where you enter Ascension Peak from the Mountain Wilderness is a spawn free zone, safe to rest. The game is programmed to block off the bottom leg, as the Rapax will cause a landslide there, so I don't think that roaming enemies will bother you. The COMC is, as far as I know, the best Cloak in the game.

imo best goes to Cloak of Perception or even Prospero's Cloak with Cape of Stealth getting a chance if you happen to get lucky but yes each of my guys will end up with something so I don't feel any need to farm for them

p.s, yes the game auto 'landslides' once you have two of the 3 items needed but you can get around that by putting them in a chest... also works for the away camp ;)

According to Flamestryke's site, the Cape of Stealth is in a set location; it's guaranteed to be in that particular chest.

The Cloak of Perception, on the other hand, is not guaranteed, though it looks like you may be able to farm.it from the tree enemies in Trynton.
If you go to the Rapax Away Camp, put 2 of the artifacts in a treasure chest there, then reload the area (for example, by leaving and coming back), you can end up in a situation where you can't retrieve those items, as the cap will revert to being the Wilderness Clearing, and the chest will be inaccessible.

Doing this will make the game inwinnable.

yes good point and a trap to watch out for ;)

This is why you put such items into a chest in Arnika. He'Li said that I could have the room if I cleared out the Bandits, which I did.

Oh yes, that sword that was named based off a brand of kitchen appliances, which an enemy in Might & Magic 2 is named after.

Apparently, when Wizardry 1 was released in Japan, they didn't get the reference there, and the Japanese tended to see the series as more serious than the West did; this became especially apparent with Wizardry 4 not being that popular there.

Speaking of which, what happened to the Good Hope Cape from Wizardry 4? It's such a great name, yet it didn't appear at all in later Sir-Tech Wizardries.

I only played W4 once and didn't get it but I assume some marketing group said it wasn't pc?

Day 14
Rapax bed

With the pickles given to Ferro we sell most the loot back and Vi kept the hammer then we drop Saxx and settle in for a night of hot action then its off to the zoo
