Im gonna be soooooo leveled by the time I can afford it it for 4 cahracters! My party consists of 2 dual weilders (Alexis and Zanthus) I likee to only have one of them in at each time so they can equpt double shoulder pads 2 magic uses (Liara and Thyyra) Both good MP but I make it so the try not to get hit (fragile) and two weapon and sheild people (Lann and Ark) I have Lann using weapons with death strike not powerful but good if your lucky! And Ark using royal blade and tintanium hand (GREAT combo) I really dont no why I just listed my party... lol. So anyway I am gonna buy it for Alexis, Zanthus, Ark, and Lann just cause I have them all wearing heavy armor cause they are fighters!

You should not put your magic casters in the heavy armor. You'd benefit so much more from wearing the spellcaster armor and then putting AP into Defense to make up for it.

I just sailed to the seaside town and got the quest for Mythril from the guy in the house, and can't leave the town. What am I doing wrong? When I went through the first time there was no problem getting to the map.

What version are you using? There was a small glitch in one of the releases that you couldn't get out of the town. Try saving the game then playing it in another version to get out. If you don't have another version, you can .zip the save file somewhere and PM me the link and I'll get you out of the town.

I'm using Build 5

I used the old chapters 1-3 and was able to get out of town. I hope this doesn't leave something behind that would stop the upper summons.....

No what im saying is I'm NOT using heavy armor for the magic users only for the fighters lol yeah they r so much better wtih intellect bosting equiptment!!
Also this game is so great!! lol

@Fleta: One of the earlier Build 5 games (Build 5.0) had something blocking the exit of Klaim. In the current version (5.4) it's fixed. The method you used should leave the summons unharmed, but if they still don't work it's because you used the old version.

Hail, Legionwood fans!

Announcing the Tower of Trials expansion pack!

Hey there, Legionwood fans! Today, I'm happy to official announce the upcoming expansion pack, Legionwood: Tower of Trials, which is almost completely finished and will be released on December 15th, 2010.

Tower of Trials is an optional expansion pack for Legionwood: Tale of the Two Swords. It will not be distributed with the main game, and will instead be offered as a seperate download. It will not be possible to play Tower of Trials without having a copy of the main game handy; installing the expansion will simply add to your existing Legionwood game.

Tower of Trials adds extra post game content to Legionwood, in the form of an additional chapter that can be played after the ending scene of the main game. The storyline of the expansion pack takes place six months following Castoth's defeat and sees Lann and the group join together once more to investigate the mysterious titular Tower of Trials, a strange dimensional rift that has inexplicably appeared in the land of Rhasphodus. You can expect hours of gameplay as you explore new dungeons, learn new Techs, find new equipment, recruit a brand new summon and build your characters stronger than ever before!

The quest in Tower of Trials takes you beyond the world of Legionwood, into realms where only the fiercest monsters await you, including the land of Taltarus from Legionwood 2 and the deadly mansion from One Night 2: The Beyond. These are in addition to several more original locations, making for one huge dungeon crawl, a concept new to Legionwood.

Tower of Trials seeks to resolve the loose ends of Legionwood's plotline and expands upon characters that recieved little development. Fans of Zanthus in particular will be happy with what the new storyline offers.

So that's what awaits you in Legionwood: Tower of Trials, coming to infect your Legionwood game this December!

Has anyone got a list of the locations of the Pins of Creation?
I'm missing one.

Heh, nevermind. I found it.

Did you get the Pin of Zenith as well?

HAHA

This was totally by accident. Of course you can't move.



Yea I need to know the locations of the pins as well.

Question: Is it new that resting at an inn doesn't cure comatose? I could have sworn that in the earlier versions people woke up and got healed when you took them to an inn. Now it doesn't. Surprised the h*** out of me since I had saved over my earlier ones and now was stuck without any way of buying Angels tears and my main magic user was knocked out....

Yeah thats true, but if your member is KO just find one of the blue crystal Gaia has placed generouisly around the game. If your really stuck tell us your location so that we can help you figure out where to go.

Hey Gaia, long time no see! I've gotten back into RMing recently and I decided to download the full version for this, it's great as ever. I decided to start again, and I've only just finished the wedding ring sidequest. Who do I have to take it to again? XD Glad you got this finished though, it's a great piece of work

You take it to the lady inside of a house in the southern part of the town. I think it's directly east of the well?

Yes, it's the only non shop building that you can enter in the town. Welcome back by the way! I'm sure you'll find the ending suitably epic.

@oldmangreg: You get one Pin for completing the Upperthorne Sewer quest, one for completing the Pirate's Cove quest in Rhapshodus, one is found in Marilith's Tomb in Mount Pyre, one is given to you for completing the Ascara Mine and would you believe I forgot where the fifth one is? You'll need to also go and get the Pin of Zenith from the Shrine of Hate in the Aldagard islands as well, which will only open once you have found the Sword Of Lore.

Don't you get one for giving the mortician the Wyrmwood? At least I remember getting one from him.

Oh yes, that'll be the fifth one then. I'd completely forgotten about that quest. The Wyrmwood is inside the Arcanist's Tower.

@oldmangreg: Hmm, I didn't think you could access the port with a ship. I'll certainly need to change that!

Any port near water it seems to do that.

Yep, it's fixed now! And, now it's time for an update...

Friday, November 26th, 2010

Today, I'm officially announcing the closure of Legionwood's development. After almost four long years and two different game engines, I'm finally proud to say I'm happy with the state of the game and with what I've managed to accomplish. Thus, I've now uploaded what should be the final ever release of Legionwood (Build 5.5) which includes some final tweaks, small additions and some resolution with regards to Zanthus (making me feel much better about the game's "completed" designation). Unfortunately, I must inform you all that a hard drive error has resulted in the loss of the planned Legionwood expansion pack. As such, I've no choice but to announce its cancellation. It's now time to move on to bigger and better things, such as Legionwood 2 and an as of yet unnamed literary project I'm working on.

Thank you for all your support, feedback, beta testing, criticism and inspiration that you have given me throughout Legionwood's development. If it were not for you, the game would be very different and probably worse off than it is in its current iteration. Keep an eye out for the next big Legionwood adventure!

That is some bad news, but I know how computer crashes can really ruin things. It's been a fun ride though. I'll keep my eye out on Legionwood 2 when I get a little more time after the holidays. I hope it'll be able to measure up to this masterpiece.

Oh well, at least it's been a good experience with many lessons learned. Can't ask for much more than that.

Now your byline ("Are those tears in your eyes") really comes true. I understand, but it's been so much fun. BTW, what does "Demonic Charge" do? It doesn't seem to do much besides give me an extra turn.

How are you able to use Demonic Charge? That's a skill used bu Grudge Holders to power up their instant kill attack. Once they've used it three times, they will use Demonic Purge, which instantly kills a party member (and it's unblockable).

I see. No, I can't use it, I notice it, and it didn't appear to do anything. I've noticed the Demonic Purge, but didn't put it together with 3 demonic charges. Can you use Osmone (I think that's the one to get rid of an opponent's MPs) to stop them from doing that?

Nope, it doesn't use up any of their SP to use it. The idea was to try and emulate a Tonberry from Final Fantasy. I know that I didn't make it obvious enough that the Charges lead to the Purge though.

In Legionwood 2, when a Grudge Holder uses Demonic Charge, a message is displayed telling you how many charges it has left to go until it can use Demonic Purge.

Cool. Are you changing Legionwood 2 to be more like this game (I have tried Taltarus and it doesn't have near the feel that this game did, no offense)?

8/10 overall! ^^ Epic all the way save for the ending, standard SBS battle coreography(could've been better), and world map BGM(boring overworld theme..). ~,~ lol
Damn! You got me there! Crying during the scene of the moment of truth after beating the Tome Guardian... T_T so touching,,,that's one thing of many things of the game that got me XD

However, I kinda reject Liara to be the one who sacrificed. After all, I expected it so cus Terminus story bout his sister kinda giving me a hunch bout something's gonna happen to Liara. I prefer Lann or/and Ark to be the one(s) to the day. After all, they are(were) Creators. Yup finished the game save for the lorequest regarding the pyramid. I already got 4 Pins or Creation and Pin of Zenith. Charn, Makir, Hawkshire, Rhasphodus,.can u reveal the last location of the Pin of Creation pls? >.< Beaten the H*** B****r in a lorequest optional boss fight, so am I gonna fight the Rift Dragon too if I manage to obtain the last Pin of Creation and open the pyramid gates? o.0

EDIT: I'm terribly sorry for spoiling the story, my Spoiler button's failing me atm

Back on page 36 there's a list of the pins but from the list you gave it sounds like you're missing the one from the Ascara Mines sidequest in Klaim. The NPC with the sidequest is in a house on the left if I remember right.

Or... If Klaim has been destroyed, then he'll be standing outside of the mine.

@Fleta: Yes, though I want the game to have its own distinct feel as it is a remake of Tales Of Worlds which back in the day had quite a few fans. I did warn you that it's only a thematic sequel. Though if you try the new demo I released yesterday, you might find it more to your tastes.

@Fetz: I'd always intended for Liara to "die" - the event pretty much establishes the frame work for the entire lore of One Night 1, Legionwood 2 and my novel series.

Thanks!! >:D




Roger that!




Ic. I'll take that as a 'guiding clue' >:P

__
Btw, I thought Legionwood 2's gonna be lore-sequel of Tales of Two Swords.. :/
What happened to the 300 ppl who're sent to different planet by sleep ship(i forgot the name but it does contain "sleep" lol) to escape Castoth's wrath. Have they built up their own civilisations? Are you going to make an RPG based on them? If yes, that'd be interesting to behold~ ^^

Legionwood 2 is the "lore sequel" to the first game. It expands on the lore quite a bit, and explores what happened to Castoth once he was expelled from Legionwood and suspended in the dimensional rift, or at least, one of the possibilities of what happened. It takes place in a different (technically) universe, which has become tainted due to the events the occured in the world of Legionwood.



Read at your own risk; spoils Legionwood 2.

My bad my bad xD i havent read the Legionwood 2 thread >:P
Great!


Wait wait,.um, what I meant to say was/is: plot-sequel(im poor in english idk how to put it to describe a sequel that has to be a continuing story of the previous title lol)

Guess what DG! I beat Undine, got the sword, finally got Terminus to kill me off, went to Ark, and in when I was battling the followers I had him summon Undine..... The game bombed. As far as I know the only thing I did with an older version is to get out of the city to go get the Mythril shard. Any clues?

That's probably what did it. See, the older version would have updated the ingame data files to your save file and well... There you go.

It could be Undine is still broken, but I was sure I fixed her.

Is there ANY way of manually fixing it even to the point of using a debug like tool to edit the save file? Also, I don't have Incubus. I thought the first time around I got her before Undine.

Also, I'm at the mountain with the dragon. As long as I'm using build 5, is it possible that when I get the dragon (Maralilith or whatever her name is) that she will work?

Never mind. I answered my own question with Undine.

Marilith and Incubus should work. If they don't, just try renaming the character sets for the summons yourself and see what happens.

Great game, it's been a long time since
i've played a traditional rpg,
thank you so very much.

You're welcome!

I'm going through the game a second time, and I got into Mount Pyre. There's a cave inside that has indeciferable writing. I remember there was a Rosetta stone that I had the first time through but can't remember where I picked it up from. Where do you get that?

You get the Rosetta Stone by giving the Mountaineer's Map to the crippled man in Greenvale. The Mountaineer's Map is either in Peregrin Canyon or the Arcanist's Tower, depending on your game version.

Download links are now fixed! Check the OP!

I have no idea if this has been addressed yet or not, but when using the heal option in the crystals, it says MP is restored as opposed to SP. I don't know if I'm missing something or what, though I doubt I am. I've played the game for over an hour and have yet to see MP anywhere else.

Just a little minor inconsistency.

Wow, it hasn't been referred to as MP since way back in Build 2. How did I forget to change that!?

DG,

I don't remember seeing this, but there's a nasty little bug I came across. If you hurry (press the shift key), there are some times when you get stuck in one direction. I'm going through places I've already been, so I'll try to get quicker and all of a sudden the party keeps going to the left until it hits a wall. And even then it keeps trying, so you can't go in any other direction! It even lasts into a battle (when you go to choose strike, tech, etc it will just cycle through choices if you were going down at the time). I know if I bang around sometimes it will cure itself, but most of the time I just have to quit the game and start over. Anyone else have this?

I can't say that's ever happened to me. That sounds like the key is getting stuck or something.

Well, I know it's not my hardware if that's what you're saying, but it's like the system that recognizes input doesn't reset the buffer for some reason.

Also as a side note, I got lost trying to find the archaelogical dig site and ended up back at Lann and Liara's home town. When I went to leave, Lann said it's too dangerous to leave the town. I had to go look for apples and have the shopkeeper tell me about the festival in the capital city. Even though I had 6 level 30+ characters. Also, don't they know about the war?

Fleta, that first bug you reported sounds like some sort of event lag - it's possible that RPG Maker gets stuck and is not processing key presses.
The second bug sounds like a switch problem, which is strange, as Upperthorne is updated several times over the game. I'll check it out.

In other news, Legionwood seems to be spreading through the internet without my input now - a google search I did earlier today showed me that downloads of the game are now hosted on File Planet, Mod DB and several open source software sites.

Upon trying the game a second time, I went to the cave where you need the pin of creation, etc. I found I still have pins to get even though Castoth has started destroying the world. Can I still get those other pins to do this side quest? If so, can you give a list of where each of them are for build 5.0?
