ANDUCAR

My Daemon keeps saying He needs to speak to his lord and master. so how can he do that?

[HiFive]

I thought all the Daemons were female. Also, my Daemon does not say anything about speaking to her lord and master, or at least, not lately. Perhaps you are playing the game using a language other than English and the voicing or translation is different. Regardless, she doesn't need to go to her "lord and master" to speak to him - she's probably just referring to the one who sent her up from the Underworld at the beginning of the game. He seems to be some sort of Lord in the Underworld, and she was his plaything until he got bored with her and sent her up to Ancaria.

I think I didn't report the issue right. She never SPEAKS about it. Its written into some of the things she writes in her log book. I quit the game at Level 26 because in trying to finish CHA 4 I had to get to this town within X number of days.
I have been thinking that doing to many side quests raises your LEV so high that the battles get much harder to do. I could fill 3/4 of my pack with healing potions and still not get to the finish of CHA 4. So as much as I feel that side quests are part of the game me somewhat handling of combat leaves much to be learned. So I must learn how to use the combat/spells/healing part of the game and be able to do things better. its just that not using WASD for movement is hard for me because I have to use the mouse to click on a different AI bad guy and with the great graphic's I loose track of things. There are a lot of little things about understanding how the game works that I am a bit unclear about which I would not be comfortable mentioning in a open forum but I will keep at it'
I tried to play Sacred but because of my poor eye sight I can't read the small print even when I use my old 27" monitor.
thanks for all the help have a good day and stay safe

I checked my Daemon's log book. I didn't read everything in it, but the only entry I could find where she says she should talk to Anducar is the very first entry. She can talk to him there, because he's right there with her before he sends her up to Ancaria. I think when you have just logged into the game and you open your log book, the first entry is the one the game will show you. That is why you keep seeing that she says she needs to talk to Anducar. It should show as a completed quest, so you can ignore it.

I have been thinking that doing to many side quests raises your LEV so high that the battles get much harder to do.

Doing all of the side quests can actually raise a character's level higher than the level of the bosses once you reach them. If you think you'd like to be at an even higher level,or you'd like to collect even better equipment before you reach the bosses, then you could always kill a lot more monsters that are close to the level of your character. In each area, there is a cap on how high the levels of the enemies will go, and that is why it is possible to outlevel your enemies and also the bosses you will find. However, you might notice that the bosses are always some levels higher than the other enemies in the area.

As far as movement versus fighting enemies goes: If you are mostly used to WASD I can understand the difficulty of switching to mouse movement. I started with mouse-movement games and had just as much trouble switching to WASD for a new game I wanted to play.

Perhaps what a WASD player has trouble with is understanding that you don't need to move so close to the enemy before trying to hit them with a basic weapon attack. If you left-click on an enemy and hold the mouse button down, your character will run to the enemy and hit them.

If the enemy is some yards away, I will sometimes click on the enemy and leave the button down while slightly pulling my mouse a little bit back away from the enemy. Doing so has the feeling of pulling my character up to the enemy, and my mouse will usually be in a better position on the mouse pad for me to click on other enemies if I need to. Having a larger mouse pad, or mouse surface, helps as well.

Also, on this game if you have a crowd of enemies surrounding your character, you can often leave your mouse key down and just move it from one enemy to another. She will continue to hit each enemy in turn without you having to re-click on them, as long as they are close to her.

I have a defect in one of my eyes that makes reading small print on monitors difficult, so I keep a magnifying glass handy. However, that only works if your monitor is within 12" of your arm's reach (at least, with the magnifier I use). Getting the proper magnifier is important. You don't want it to be so heavy that you are reluctant to use it. It needs to be fairly strong, with a sturdy frame, and give you a clear picture over a fairly wide area.

I'm happy to answer any trivial questions you might have. It took me a little while to get used to this game, as well. Every new game has it's own mechanics that will take a while getting used to, but it's good for us to challenge our brains with new things.

There is a manual for the game. If you have not altered the layout of your library too much, the manual should be near the top of the column on the right of the game page. It is quite detailed.

Did you go into the config file of Sacred 1 and check the box for 32-bit color depth? Some people also have to try different combos of the other 2 boxes.

If you don't know how to do this, I can give you more detailed instructions. It's not hard.

What class are you trying to play on Sacred 2?

I always start with a fighter. I am not sure (it was late) but when you bring up the save game when you save it a bar appears and you can save and quite or continue with the game. Also when you enter a cave a little box pops up that says "game saved" It was late when I quite and I am not clear how you access the save.
you have any Idea how the last quest for "Pesky Pirate" ends do you? I can't seem to to find the leader so I can get his head and finish the quest.

Each class has its own start to the game that is different from how the other classes start. That's why I would need to know which class you are playing.
