Well, the Arx Fatalis forum looks kind of dead so i decided to put them here:

1 - I'm thinking of going magic/stealth build, will i be ok with it? Let's say i've got 5 skill points, i'm putting 2 on dex, 2 mental and 1 on constitution.

2 - Is there a way to quick select all items? If there's 5 apples on the box, do i have to drag them 1 by 1 to my inventory?

3 - Is there a better tutorial somewhere on the internet? The in game tutorial is kind of... useless...

4 - Fixing items will be something available later, right? Or can i do it now?

1) Become fighter/mage. Raise your physical ability to near 12 or 13, your magic to near 16, and rest in health. The game is a breeze if you are a little bit of fighter, together with somewhat strong caster. Feeble enemies fall from melee, tough ones from magic. You need a balanced player based on those two.

2) Shift and click, as the tutorial says. Then rearrange inventory (has a shortcut button), or manually tidy it yourself.

3) Don't know, i myself read the manual and the strategy guide (the last one is not on gog bonuses).

4) Yes, but depends on object knowledge stat. With each new repair, if this stat is not 100 (and frankly there is no reason to), its durability will lower with each repair, until destroyed. Paying for a repair now and then is not so terrible.

1- SHOULD be a doable build because the game was designed to play as you like. You'll be stuck in melee until you get a few decent runes though.

2- There's 2 "shields" at the bottom of the item inventory. the one on the left is take all, the one on the right is close window.

3- There are a few places to get info on the game. Gamefaqs has some useful info. Also there was a guide on RPGdot years ago. The famous RPGdot guide is a great source of info.

4- You want a very high Object Knowledge score to repair items with Blacksmith hammers, anvils and the like. Repairing them yourself will reduce the overall durability. Better to find a great weapon you like for the game and use a Akamir's Stone on it to make it indestructible (there are less than 5 in the game).

1) I was trying to go for stealth/archer/magic since the combat is janky as hell but i already noticed that early the game demands close range combat (no spells and the stealth doesn't work).

2) I'm taking the shift solution, i was trying to go for the ctrl+click, figures... though i didnt notice that on the tutorial.

3) Gonna check that rpgdot site.

4) Guess i'll have to manage better my items and ignore the points on repairs and focus on other stuff.

Thanks for the answers.
