Hi,

Ive just started playing this game. Ive started doing the grave digging quest, I get to the house where the two guys are and I keep dieing, one of them does something to zap my will power and I just cant kill them! I must be the worlds worst gamer!! I use a couple of flares on them and ive got the sword from the monk on the main quest. Has anyone got any combat tips as all I end up doing is stabbing wildly at the left mouse button. Ive not been playing the game for long so I havent built up many skills, should i be doing so before I attempt this quest.

TIA - Kev

thanks, I didn't know that! maybe I should read the instructions....

iirc the race is breton (??), can't quite remember as I only installed it last night but its one which favours magic

thanks for the replies, I've read bits about the levelling system of this game so I wasn't sure, if the 2 guys I'm tying to kill would be as difficult to kill no matter what my stats are.
When standing back with the bow and arrow, can you hide so they don't see you or do they attack when you land the first blow?
ill try the stealthy poisened weapon tactic sounds fun

I think I have a lot to learn, what is a melee attack and how do I fight dirty?

You need to get some mud from your garden, rub it over your face and swear at you monitor as you try to fight.

seeing as this game is quite involved, does the type of mud I use or the level of vulgarity I use while swearing make a difference when attacking these two chaps?
