Deltas are really dangerous
« on: February 22, 2012, 06:57:47 pm »

Seriously,

I just got farther into this game than I have since the update dropped, by far. I managed to killed numerous were-beings, and then some other monsters. I finally got sent on a hydra quest. I sold all of my loot and got some good weapons, and then tried to ford a delta, only to be swept under the currents and drowned. I should have leveled my meager swimming abilities before attempting that. It was very sad.

Train swimming by walking against ocean tides, or constantly ALT moving down/up a ramp in the ocean. Works quite nicely ^-^

well, the problem was I underestimated the strength of the current. I got swept a z-level down and was having problems climbing out of the water. Sucked.
