I don't think boosted stats count when checking stat requirements.

as in only black potions and barrels count? 50 is quite a bit to get without potions.
Unless boost from items counts too? Id say its temporary too no?

Item boost does count,you could stack a bunch of rings and other accessory to get 50. Temporary stat boosts don't count in MM7,but item boosts are seen as permanent.

i dont have access to such items anyway, not unless i cheese some dragon and savescum int boost artifact

The fuck are you talking about lol?! You could find magical rings everywhere. You have like 40 slots to put the on,i just collect all kind of them and upgrade them when i find better one. That shit adds up,a few intel points here and few there,by that time you could get 50 intel in accessories. Also the most important thing of the region is the master of water magic. I don't go there without a book of town portal with me.

Playing WoX right now. Is there a keyboard command for selecting what enemy to target? I'm using keyboard for everything else and it's annoying to use the mouse for one action.

edit: just remembered that when looking at quests, U and D for Up and Down don't seem to work, so I guess that's another time I use the mouse.

You can buy some INT boosting shit in shops in Nighon, especially in shop with misc. items. It might need savescumming, though.
And there is altar in bottom left corner of the map boosting Your INT and PER by 10 permanently. Maybe not the ultimate solution but should help to be closer to magical 50 INT barrier.

MM7. Simple question, guys - Is Tomb of the Master (part of Ninja promotion quest) available for Light path?

EDIT: Thanks!

Late reply, but if you haven't found out yet know that you can use numbers to move through targets (1 is the top of the enemy list).

Just wanted to drop by and brag about finally finishing Might and Magic VI. Phew, this was a long run, my old body is barely fit for playing these long, oldschool games. But I did it!

 

[Tse Tse Fly]

I don't remember if I asked this or not, but is there a limit to how many skills a character can learn in MM6? The leather armour instances I have collected are taking too much inventory space yet I'm still hesitant to sell them off when I could put them to better use, that is to be worn by my casters.

Sharpmetal is a melee spell!

 

[fantadomat]

Sharpmetal is useless,you run out of it after a few kills lol. You don't run out of a champion/death knight with two artifact melee weapons! It is really a shame that dark magic is practically useless. With light one you get all the cool buffs and then just steamroll anything in your path.

I've been playing World of Xeen for about 25 hours now and it's fucking great. I've done a lot of the Clouds content, but I've only done a bit of Darkside. Is that normal? My level 17 party get their heads caved in by an armadillo whenever I try going back there.

 

[fantadomat]

The cloud part of the game was the worst for me. It was really annoying and samemy.

7 is the most exploitable game in the series, there's a well in eeofol (I think) that gives free skill points, money, xp, etc. It also dishes out eradicates and kills, but with gm magic resistance you can block the negative effects.

a high end party of dark priests/liches can spit out dozens of dragon breaths and mow down just about anything like it was grass.

There's 0 reason to take melee chars with dark, not just because dark magic is so much better than melee but also because all the mass buffs are on the light side.

dark side - clerics and mages
light side - i usually take 2 heavy hitters (i prefer monks and knights but thieves are good too) + 1 cleric + 1 mage for the light spells and utility (also they hit pretty hard with all the buffs).

Armourdillos have an obcene high armour class. You need some kind of spell to put them to sleep. That reduces their armour class to something around 0. Try the spell "Beast Master" or something. "Sleep" or "Hypnothize" should work too.

Clouds is Might and Magic 4, Darkside is 5 and is balanced around a party that has finished Clouds.
