did you loot the bandit's coinpurses, or just take the full set of legendary iron armor from the keep? Because i got to the point wher i was spending 3000 coins for meat, because i had so many coinpurses i just wanted to get rid of them all.

It seems sorta wierd that after a person gets discovered as a werewolf he/she will just go off into a cave and sit around naked waiting to get killed by an adventurer. As the adventurer it's annoying having to go off into caves killing naked peasants, and getting nightcreature level fame for doing so. I suggest that the werewolves form their own community and set up a bandit camp, and wear armor and use weapons, except for the nights of a full moon, when w=they go berserk and kill a lot of people. That way, bandit camps could be legedary level quests and they would probably be full of people who are resistant to the weapon you are using.

it seems like archers have more power in the update. i usually give my adventurers full dodging capabilities, but recently i've been giving them full shield user so they can block all the arrows and bolts.

I was lucky enough to get a second legendary swordmaster adventurer (this time on a new world). thinking i had earned my lesson when i was killed trying to take on a necromancer alone, i recruited a swordsman and 20 villagers to siege his little tower. On the road i got attacked by bandits. there were alot of them, but that's normal. there was also a hammerlord, but i was a swordmaster with an iron longsword, so i could take him right? ..... no!!! and after watching my companions being brutally raped and slaughtered i found out that i was ambushed by 45 bandits which would have been nearly impossible to defeat without the hammerlord.

There's been a lot of complaining about the numbers of ambushes and the abilities of the bandits. Personally, i enjoy all the ambushes because it gives me good early training, but sometimes the bandits that show up are way to good for me, so realistically i run. Basically, what are the scariest bandit groups you've encountered, and how did you deal with them.

I was wandering around with my legendary elf hero when i was ambushed by 6 bandits (i was alone, so that is alot) 2 of them were master spearmen (1 a human the other a goblin) and another was a master crossbowman. I ran like a noob and lived to get killed by a zombie horde.

mines been actually crashing everytime my elf characters try to talk to someone

it seems like it should be the age of gratuitous werewolf/vampire activity

i don't like the two magic skills... it would be to easy for an adventurer to just make a macro and get to legendary really quickly... the staff thing is a nice way to stop this, but if you want to make a character who starts out as a mage, then you would first have to get him to find a staff with no other redeeming abilities making mages a challenge class for most adventurers, and impossible for noobs. I think there should be one spellcasting related stat... maybe willpower... that you can give your hero in the beginning as opposed to strength, then force the mage to find spells, by asking around about rumors of mysterious tablets lost in libraries, which would take time, but wouldn't put themin any particular harm, then once they know a spell they can use it until they pass out or whatever form mana loss.
