I finally got a nice corpsicle all to myself today.
"Joy!" said I. "I can finally work on raising again because I haven't done it in soooo long..."
Rejuve. Check.
Way to hunt for spirit. All good!
Found soul! Quite quick! Good going, Sorenne!
Okay, soul bond...quickly....
...
...
Uh. Hey, how do I actually get 'em breathing again?
scratch head
NUTS!
And in the half a minute it took me to see if I could find a cheat sheet somewhere, someone else did the actual life-breathing part!!
Hmph! says me with a Grouchy Face (tm)!!
At least I remember how now...I think. Hahaha. :)
(Not really a rant. I found it a bit amusing that I remembered everything up until the actual life-breathing bit.)

I remember my younger days (less than 5 years ago!) when I liked syntax puzzles and would go "YOU figure it out, it's not that hard..."
Now I'm old and crotchety (after only 2 years+!) and am searching for cheat sheets.
...bah, who am I kidding? I've always been a lazy bum and would always ask people to give me the answers. :D
Except for one quest. I remember one quest I was very proud about figuring out myself. Wish I remembered what it was...

Is it through posting? Because I seem to recognise the forum name more than the character name.
Please forgive me. I have a terrible knack with names. Colleagues I work with for 3 months, I STILL can't remember their names. :)

Cute verbs and speaking from hiding are excellent ways to catch a lightning bolt in the face regardless of mystical ninja abilities.

the first time around when i did the "old" rez quest i did it on my own without a cheat sheet. the second time around i used drsecrets. the infusion quest i basically had the immortals <I had it in my spell book which i let my paladin "borrow" and read on the screen while figuring out which way to go. thief stuff i did all on my own, empath stuff i read the cheat sheets for shift the first time i did the quest <in tf>, and moon mage stuff i've had a lot of help from eldrads, barbarian stuff phii's page rocks, ranger stuff i used the cheats cause i did it in TF, paladin stuff so far i've done on my own, but i do have a guide for the holy weapon quest which i havent' gone for yet <gonna do emerald knight quest first>, WM stuff i've sort of done half and half on, and of course necro stuff I'm trying to figure out on my own as soon as it lets me. Traders don't have much beyond what's been on the boards. And bards.... i've pretty much done on my own with a bit of help from the "shop" lists of the various beverages <in tf, i have yet to get those abilities in prime, but there's only so much time in the day.>
Syntax puzzles are a pain though. I once was trying to do a certain thief thing only to find out that the syntax in that particular part of the puzzle was broken. And those days you couldn't even post anything about those abilities on the boards.
Although its good to keep up the semblence of "secrecy" in-game, and keep things in whispers if it must be discussed, in the forums I feel that there's too much chance of having wrong information being given out if things are too hush-hush, and nobody wants to waste their time, and money, doing things the wrong way.

I feel so weird when people say they have a ton of trouble with the Infusion quest.
I got across the bridge on my first try the night it was released (crazy times). And that was before I played a Cleric.
I guess I just got lucky.

This event was like 5 or 6 years ago though before I went into the mountains to become a lore-fu master.
I think some of them are just super obscure and some are really obvious and you can get lucky or unlucky. I've never looked at the full list of them.

I think some are too close to being applicable to two gods. Some are incredibly obvious though.

Original Resurrection quest did on my own and enjoyed(as far as I can recall ooooh so long ago). Infusion quest was great fun because Shalade and I went down there together and flailed our way through it. New Resurrection I was originally bound and determined to wait until Flavius had the survivals and the combats to do it without any help, and then one day I just decided to heck with that and got dragged through by a group of friends. MF quest was just too much fun to use cheats for.
I am so much not a purist anymore about it. I have helped enough people through the infusion quest to know that people deal with puzzles in different ways and that has little reflection on the player. However folks manage the quests is fine with me. I just hope that by the time they finish the MF quest they know how to use the spells and abilities they have.

Yes, but.
It's still one of my favorite quests, tbh. The knowledge required is basic stuff any Cleric RPer should know, plus a little imagination. Yeah, some of the questions could be improved, sure, but a couple falls aren't the end of the world.

yeah, the choices you can make are random. the ones i did with my cleric that was in TF seemed easier, and i didn't have to consult "the immortals" <although i had it available>. in prime the questions for some of them didn't have such obvious answers.
