Altogether, I think EoB could have done better with more wall texts or other clues. After reading the solution, most times I thought "I might have tryed that as 11 yr-old when playing along" rather than "I could have solved that by thinking harder".
Mixmeister express review how to#
Most of them are quite random and without any hints on how to do them. I did some more special quests, but I used spoilers. On the other hand, the two front row melees did most of the work anyways, so having 4 supporters is ok.Ībout the robes: since you find the clothes/armor of possible companions next to their bones, one can assume they are ressurected naked and the friendly dwarf lends them robes after the ressurection. I also have a pure cleric, but that is quite overkill - after years of 3rd edition, I simply had forgotten how boring clerics used to be in AD&D 2nd. I had a ranger/cleric created as melee, but soon found out that's not the best idea: repeatedly casting Flame Sword is quite annoying, and carrying a holy symbol is quite hard for a two weapon fighter (what a ranger basically is). I played along and also took Kirath in my group, the second addition was Keirgar. It's possible that this was clued somewhere else and I missed it (I never did figure out how to get through two doors on Level 9 that require "special keys"), but if not, that's a B.S. What do you know, one of the objects sailed right through and caused a secret area to open up, leading to the down stairs. Eventually, in desperation (and perhaps remembering the trick that got me the original orbs), I started throwing things at the walls at random. I rammed my party into every wall to test for secret doors. I checked the walls extensively for hidden buttons.
I spent a while putting random items on the plate to see what happened. I returned to the room and found absolutely nothing except the pressure plate I'd already stepped on to close the pits. Xrzf insisted that the solution was in one of the rooms on Level 9 that I thought I'd exhaustively explored. Although all the above helped me progress in the levels I'd already explored, they didn't do anything about the rest of Level 10 or getting to Level 11.
