Hi, me and my friend just picked this game up from the sale and I had a few questions I wanted to ask before I get started. The main one is simple: From what little I've read about this game, there seem to be certain requirements to get all the quests (or at least as many as you can based on alignment). I just wanted to know what these benchmarks are so I can be sure to hit them.
Question the second: I'm probably going to be building a magic character, because I come from D&D 3.5 and therefore magic is always the best thing ever. Are there any specific stat benchmarks I need to worry about here beyond the Will Requirements to get spells? Does the amount of spells known in a specific school have an influence on that school's spells, or can I just take, say, harm and heal without worrying about the rest of the school. Finally, is it a bad idea to go pure mage? I'm trying to get as little information on what stat build to go with as possible (I want to do it myself, for once) but I want to avoid making a gimped character and having to restart.
Finally: does the LAN based multiplayer still work for this game? My friend and I want to try playing together. How does that work? Will the fact that I'm planning on going mage and him going tech cause issues?
Thanks in advance!
