Getting the hang of this now :-)
Couldn't see you or anyone from Atra Manus online last night, but I did
manage to find Bill, or rather he found me and he spent 5 minutes or so
chatting to me, probably thinking I was ignoring him, because I couldn't
work out how to reply to him :-) Sorted it in the end and he ran me
through the basics of sorcery.
Basic stuff that I hadn't been able to pick up on, mainly from not
having a manual yet. I'd been spreading my magic out between body, mind
and matter, rather than specialising. So with his help, I respecced and
can now get a pet.
He also introduced me to the wonders of the obelisks. I'd noticed them
before in the aqueducts, but didn't know what they were for, so I'd been
spending ages running backwards and forwards all the way between
Camelot/Crypt/aqueducts.
Even with these two simple things, it makes the game so much less
frustrating.
