How to equip my adventurer?
« on: May 23, 2011, 02:48:05 pm »

Hey folks! :D

I got some new items which I collect from dead people.

But the problem is I don't know how :S
I read the guide but it only confuses only a little!

If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it! :D

Hit 'w' to wear armor.

Drop your current weapon and pick up the new one to equip a new weapon.

Dwarves cannot wear human armor because it's too big, so if you're a dwarf, it's most likely the armor you have is for humans.

Then a human iron cap is too large for the dwarf?

That and I'm trying to get my dwarf to equip a iron shield but I don't know how :S

For shields or weapons, drop (d) the item you're using (ie : your current weapon), then if the weapon you want to equip is in your inventory, drop the weapon, then grab it. Don't forget to grab the other, you might need it too.

For the armor, don't forget to remove (r) pieces of armor already on you at the location you want to equip. ;)

you can also [P]ut items in your bag if you have space. Clothes need to be [R]emoved first. You can also wield as much stuff as you want to in your hands, shields are recommended.

Unless that glitch got fixed when I wasn't looking...

How do you equip crutches?, it's not in the 'w' menu

Did you know that if you write 3.14 on a piece of paper and hold it in a mirror, it will say pie? And if you divide 42 by 3.14... you get 13.37!

It is incredibly satisfying to kill a man with a butterfly.

It now automatically puts shields/weapons in the bag if you already have a shield/weapon in both hands.
Taking out ammo will still put it in your hand though you already wielding something.
I haven't tried picking up something while both hands full and having no bags.

You equip them like a weapon or a shield. ;)

It doesn't let you pick them up; it says "Your hands are full".

However, if you [r]emove items from your bag, you can hold a pretty much infinite amount in your hand.

It should probably be noted that if you ever want to equip a different weapon/shield or wrestle with your hand then you have to manually drop all that crap. Makes changing stuff and wrestler characters a pain.

You will also get "you have nothing to wear" if you're already wearing too much stuff in all the locations for the type of armor you are trying to wear. For example if you have a helmet and a few caps on your head, and a helmet in your backpack, it will say you have nothing to wear when you try to wear the helmet in your backpack. So when you want to wear anything new, remove everything from a location and then wear things there in the order of priority you want.
