I think I'll take your advice and take a break. I've run out of games recently, hence the reason I went back to LL1 and 2. On the mob-spawn front... Ultima 3 had, I would say, a reasonable and necessary amount of mob spawns. They were kind of needed in order to level up while the game scaled in difficulty. LL mob spawns can get insane at times. It's not *that* big of a deal in LL because you can kill them very quickly. My spawn request was based on the assumption that LL3 would have a party of characters and "zoom up" battles like Ultima 3. I thought I read somewhere in this thread that you planned on doing the party of characters, but I'm not sure about the zoom up. If the battles stay the same as LL1/2 then the # of spawns wouldn't be a problem.
Im sorry if this has been answered but I've been working on this for 3 days and can't figure out how i actually enter the Cave in Verdigris to get the last nightshade. I can see the cave but it's behind several tiles of swamp. I don't see any path and I've searched pretty well for hidden ones and talked to everyone on the entire swamp island (I think). From what i can tell you can't bring an alligator you are renting into the town and you can't secure the ones in the Little ponds in the town either.... so I'm a bit lost. How are you supposed to get to that cave if you don't have the power to cross swamp yet???
Good to know these forums still work! To answer your question, it’s not * quite * true that you cannot cross swamps. You are able to cross *one* tile of swamp at a time. With that in mind, take a closer look at all that swampland down there - you may have missed a path…
Well that was easy. I actually initially assumed there would be such a path but couldn't find it for some reason (idk how because several of the caves operate this way) so i assumed the solution wws more complicated and spent a lot of time searching for things that didn't exist when the answer was right in front of my face.... thanks! yes forum works. Great game. brings back memories
