    While I was trying to level up my main character, randomly pulling levers, my stength was reduced to 3! I could only carry 35lbs of stuff! I tried everything from greater restoration spells to resting for over a week... Finally after one of my MANY reloads I found a REMOVE CURSE SCROLL in my scroll case and used it... It worked! No more strength of 3, but back to the normal 18. I was at a loss for a while(not even a girdle of HILL GIANT STRENGTH could change my stats), but now I'm back to normal...
    Anyone know where to buy some more of these scrolls?

    [​IMG] Remove Curse is a priest spell so Temples would be where I would look for them, although I don't seem to recall seeing that spell sold in Temples but I could have missed it. Although it is a lvl 3 Priest spell. I think summoned Devas also get Remove Curse as one of their spells. And last but not least you were reduced to a strength of 3 but could hold 35 pounds??? That's strange my character has strength of 6 and can only carry 30 pounds. According to the manual it should be a max weight allowance of 5 pounds for a strength of 3 :p

    [​IMG] Yepp, but the most disrupting effect from that machine is when it turns the character into a small animal!:(
    Damn, I was shocked as my MAIN character turned into a stupid RABBIT, and I had no remove curse at hand:( Very disturbing, it is.
    Had to reload. Damn.

    Remove Curse is, as stated before, a lvl 3 priest spell, and the Devas have it. So curses shouldn't be a problem if you have a cleric. It's also a lvl 4 mage spell, so if you don't have a cleric, you could use your mage. I suppose scrolls can be bought at the Arcana Archive.
     
  5. Ok... I know this isn't exactly what you want but here is the combinations for Lum's Machine.

    *MAJOR SPOILER*

    Triangle Green Medium > Storm Star +3(Cespenar can upgrade)
    Blue Green Long > Gain Magic Res.
    Circle Blue Long > +1 INT
    Square Blue Short > +1 DEX
    Red Green Short > +1 CHA
    Circle Square Triangle > +1 WIS
    Circle Red Long > +1 CON
    Square Short Medium > +1 STR
    Triangle Red Medium > Exit to next level

    Note: You can only do the Stat bonuses ONCE.

    If you enter in an INVALID combination, you get some really bad random effects (well, mostly bad):

    10% chance to gain a Potion of Superior Healing.
    10% chance to get 100,000 experience (only for whoever used it)
    10% chance to become Imprisoned (bad if it's your main character)
    10% chance for 50 fire damage
    10% chance turned to stone (bad if it's your main character)
    10% chance to lose 1 INT
    10% chance for 75 lightning damage
    10% chance to be poisoned
    10% chance to lose 15 levels
    10% chance to lose 1 DEX

    [​IMG] As many times as that's been posted it's a wonder if anyone on these boards doesn't know the Lum combinations in their sleep by now. Pop quiz tommorrow but you shouldn't have to study! :p
     
  7. Big B, I'm too lazy to link one of the topics with the combinations.
