I am pretty happy with the hunter pick, but I think a knight might be the easiest thing. Seems like a lot of strength and defense works best.

Not sure what I want to be now since there seems to be no long run repercussions for what you start as

Yeah, but if you kill him in 1-2, he's gone for good so you can waltz back into 1-1 and pick up the goodies over there. There's a nice shield and ring. I tried getting the one item closests to the purp dragon but he tail smashed me, not sure what the item is or if you can even kill him.

there are 2 rings. I assume you got the Flame Resistance ring, but there is also a Great Str ring

so you have to kill an arch demon from 2 or 3 before proceeding to 1-3?

That's the way it looks like to me because I'm having no troubles getting into to 2-3 [which is a boss fight only, btw] -- but still can't get into 1-3.

So the Demon soul you get for killing the dragon apparently has no use. So by killing the dragon you get 8K for the kill+10K for the Soul +2x800 for the Renowned Soldiers Souls in the nest area. for roughly 20K Souls which is a TON at the early level.

You get the ring under the blue dragon before he kills you but it just increases you burden just like the ring you get from the storage guy so there is no point.

Man I really want this game from the reviews I read and this thread but I know my poker volume will tank. Such a dilemma.

aight, the sword you get in the cave area of 2-2 is dope. Highly recommend picking that up.

Also, its fun going back and two hitting blue eyed knights!

Just wondering, is all the loot in this game unique and in fixed locations? Part of the fun of RPGs for me is getting some awesome random drop, or grinding through mobs to find that one rare weapon. This game seems more like a static flowchart: ie step 1) get weapon x at location y, step 2) get armor w at location z...

I'm not sure if luck effects random weapon/armor drops or just items, but either way a large % is fixed static locations

Based on what I've seen thus far, killing unique creatures/demons gives you the unique loot, or accessing certain locations. 2-1 has a few "hidden loot" places. There is a unique armor set in 1-1, but its only accesable at certain times I think.
