Hey there !

It's been a while since my last post, and I must admit I skipped a few betas. But I'm glad coming back to it. The changes are huge, and it's very addicting ! Great job, once again at Arcen !

I have one question though... First, I think it is important to tell that I'm not english native. So, I sometimes have problems with some basic terms in the game (like a shard, for example). Probably I miss some nuances, or informations. Therefore my question here...

I noticed that my guys inside the settlement were talking to me, telling me some bribes of information.

***** Warning, from here, spoil possible *****
One of the most recurrent information I had was that, in short, it was impossible to go to the overlord, I better had to stay away from him. But since my last adventures on the map, this time, the dialog has changed. With me translating into another language, it doesn't sound safe to do... It basically says "The overlord is violent, you should not do something that could comes back to my settlement". In very short... Am I supposed to understand that I should have enough power to get to the Overlord ? Or is that coming closer, but not yet enough ?

For your information, I have now a Tier 3 enemies, am only armed with tier 1 long distance scrolls, exception of 1 which is tier 2. I used most of the bonus items to get more DPS and more lights. I also have upgraded up to 600+ health, 418 mana and the last one of the three is upgraded as well.

Would that be enough for the first Overlord ?

Many thanks for your help

Cheers!

The Overlord is Tier 5, and he has three lieutenants who are all Tier 4 -- they will come help him if you do not kill them first.  You will want some tier 4 or 5 spells to get even just the lieutenants, and then once they are dead you can try your hand at the overlord himself.  From the sounds of things, I think you are definitely not quite ready to face him, but you are getting closer! :)

Also, don't put too much stock into what the NPCs in the settlement are telling you. They are all scared and not usually too encouraging. :)
