i found that shipwreck u mentioned. i went back to the 1st island (starting tutorial island) to beat some ass and return a stone to the blacksmith. I stumbled upon the ship in my exploration. I couldnt do anything cause i did not open the quest yet.
I cleared out that entire island last night. Took about 4 hours of gametime. those groms were getting their asses kicked. I got my summon spell where i can summon a giant psyche creature, and then 3 little creatures. they are not the best teammates in the world, but they take all the heat while i sit back and blast fools. You would think playing as a mage that you wouldnt be able to melee very well. However, my staff is a valuable weapon when some gets up close. I have the bare minimum points into weapon skills. But I can still use the basic fighting moves
i about to head down under the prophet again to talk to the blacksmith and see if i can find any side quests. There are also a few caves on the island i need to check outComment

I need to go back and drop shit off in my room in that chest. I cant pick up anything else to carry unless I just leave it there. DO I really need to carry 4 sets of arrowsComment

thats the kind of thiing u might want to break down. u can only carry so much and until you find a vendor you either break it down or leave it on the ground. even if u break it down it will provide some resell value in metal, wood or whatever resource.
if your a mage dont sell staffs. break them down for its 'essence'...u need these essences to level up your staffs
once you finish the main quest (tutorial) on that little island u will be placed in in Bayan. there are vendors there and u can start selling stuff.
there are some choice items i dont sell or break down. but i have found that a game this size has so many different enemies to fight that u wont be hurting for loot....so if you break down those arrows now, u wont have trouble finding them later. As a mage, i sell anything that isnt mage related.
i notice that as i level up the melee combat gets alot better. you can do alot more moves. its alot of fun and makes me want to play as a warriorComment

cool thanks all I can do is Block and B right now. Im actually carrying a sword in each hand which I think is cool when I melee. But I'll break shit downComment
-
yeah u gotta start playing. your still learning moves. B is the break defense move. You should be able to use A and RT though.
check this pic out. a bit of levitation spell going on there...i love the dudes staff

surprised you're doing well with a mage, all the reviews stated it was your typical fantasy RPG where mages fucking suck.

i have read that too. it made me reluctant to be a mage but so far its going pretty well. my guy is getting powerful now and i am not really struggling to much. some guys still take 10 hits to die but having the summoning power takes the load off of me.
Even if someone rushes me i can still fight like a warrior by using my staff as a weapon. Even with my strength at 5 i am still able to dishout alot of force with my hits. I wonder if its like the arcane warrior class in DA where your willpower acted as your strength. Maybe in this game your willpower applies to your hits when using the staffComment

I caved.
Multiplayer tonight?Comment

Man thanks to Maynard I went ahead and got this for the PS3. The controls take some getting used to but it seems solid so far.
My suggestion to anyone who picks this up is not not stray too far before leveling up. I just got raped by a rhino, 2 warthogs, and an ostrich.

i dont think i have u on my 360 FL. whats your GT?
im curious about the ps3 version. I have heard people complain about the ps3 version regarding framerate
i suggest killing and saving any ostrich feathers u can find. they have a good value for such an easy killComment

i sent you a FR a bit ago. eating, gonna be back on in a lil bit.Comment

have u tried the MP mode yet? the player creater is alot better imo. They have more than just a human choice like the SP has. Elfs, orc, dwarf and humans...plus some variation of some races.
Plus you can decide what kind of mage you want to be....u got like 5 choices there and get starter spells based on that choiceComment
