    • End of the Earth


      Okay, I'm almost there. I got this game about a year ago and I'm still having problems. Well, that's normal for me I guess (I'm only on level 15 on Marathon, and got that in 96 :)). Any way, I have a few questions on the End of the Earth level. First, all those spikes and spiked balls? How do you get through them? I loose about half my life each time.

      Now, why can I only get 80% secrets discovered? I can see some things (like picture 2) that seem like they might be secrets but I can't get to them. I don't want to open the file in MASCOT. How bout you all ask me questions like "Did you find the teleporter?" to lead me in the right direction. Is Erica still doing her seires on Ferazel Secrets Guide?

      BTW, I have experimented extensivly and have concluded that (a) I can't spell and (🆒 The floating Wizards are invinsible. Has anyone noticed how they turn red when hit with their own magic spells? Well, I used the magic sheild and hit one of them back 20+ times and he still didn't fall. I also tried using fire seeds with no luck. If anyone can proove me wrong, please, I'd really like to be.

    • First: Use the speed powerup to your advantage. Jump and run and dodge through them.

      Second: I have no recelection of that being a secret. i think it's just there

      Third: Those are called Wraiths. They are completely invincible. Just keep on running through that area. In the upgrade to version 0.4 that is supposed to be edited to make them killable.

      Thanks for the pics. I didn't know what you were talking about untill I saw them. 🙂

    • The Secrets. Oh okay. I just concluded it must be a secret because anywhere else there were those metal deposit sprites there were secrets. Now, that still leaves 20% unaccounted for...

      Wraiths. I'll look forward to the .04 release. And are the crab claws also invincible?

      TIA

    • HELP. I wanted to post this as a new topic - why isn't this board taking new members??

      Maybe I am missing something obvious, but when I get to the first savepoint in Ends of the Earth - ziridium pool, etc. - how am I supposed to get through or past that wall? Do I need a Mist Potion? I've never seen one. If I need it, where the heck is it?

    • you have to shoot up in the room to the far right

      There are some changes in the board that are being worked on right now. Unfortunately, because of that, the feature to add new members has been turned off for a bit. Hopefully it shall be back soon. :frown:

    • I am still stuck on that level ('Ends Of The Earth') after a while I gave up; how do you get up the walls covered in spikes?

      You can either use your tree trunk spell or the ice spell.

    • the ice spell is in iconoclasam but you have to have version 1.0.3 to use it

      Yeah, me too.
      Well, after you gave me that info I immediatly started playing the original again.
      (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/mdwgmalc/.Pictures/ferazel1.gif")Here is me going up the wall of spikes, if anyone is interested...(/url)
      Then I got stuck again. (you can see from this that I am not really a very good player - but I don't cheat 😉 I got stuck on (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/mdwgmalc/.Pictures/ferazel2.gif")this(/url) - and would like help. (Duh.)

      P.S. Sorry for the poor quality of the images.

      Once you are over that look for the hidden save spot just before the springs. Post again if you need help with the springs.

      OK. I got up to the Springs and died and died - I was just about to post when I fnally made it. (I kept coming back 'cause I did find the hidden save spot - but all by luck :D) They are hard, and I would like to know what you have to say about them - as I have almost completed the level. (At least, I think I have 😕.) The Spiked Clouds offered an over-petty gift - or so I think - and the Zirid. Pool was a lot more useful. I passed the Spikes and used the Tree-Trunk spell to get up the Retracting Spike Wall then I got a little way on the Dragon Cannons but fell and died. The reason I think I am almost finished is because I saw Dragon Cannons under my second screenshot and I think that button I circled opens the ending Barrier. Correct? I couldn't get a screenshot because I took the other two on my Laptop with SnapzPro2 but my iMac (what I am posting from) dosn't have it installed and I can't be bothered...I might install it soon and edit my message, though...
      --Thanks for all the help. 🙂 🙂 🙂

      **Yes, that button opens one of the final barriers. Just make sure you get the other two buttons (one is to the left right after you go through the arch after the springs and the other is to the left of all the dragon cannons above the acid - use the dragon cannons to get there.) I think that's right. Also, there's another button- Go up the cannons and hop from platform to platform towards the left; you'll get to walls with spikes. Go up and past the blue fire, and get the button. You may need to go left and pop open the crate, too.

      Hope that helps 😉

    • Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!
      I had deleted my saved games a while ago, and I had made my own World with just the level 'Ends Of The Earth' and I had been paying from it. Then I decided to play from the start of the real World, I quickley got up to Xichra - I had SIX

    • Did you die off to the edge of the screen? I have found that the rez necklaces don't work if Ferazel is not 100% visible. Sooo.... When battling Xichra - try to die onscreen 😉
