How does Solstice and Equinox / Life and Death work if you have not chosen an element (holy or unholy)? Do you get both sides abilities or neither?

PS. I get the NES/SNES game reference to Solstice and Equinox.

Conflicting answers there. Can I ask which it is? If it's a thing I might have fun with it in normal as a build. If it's not a thing I will not bother.

True is that Solstice and Equinox/Life and Death DON'T need any hard points in holy (since MXL Omega v002, in versions before skill was disabled until you choose one of trees - holy or unholy), unholy tree to work so you can feel free to make a neutral paladin that will benefit from both damage and targets bonuses.

hey all, i love this game. i have been slowly farming until my first complete set (pantheon) and have been farming sets and sacreds for a few days now.

its strange, but i enjoy bremmtown farming a lot. sure - its very slow and if i get hit twice, i am done for... but the loot is proper good, and i am completing set after set, which is awesome. one thing thats odd: if i google "bremmtown map" i get a totally different map. a much larger one, too. was the area changed? (i only see one miniboss, a transparent dragon that goes down much easier than the spirits)

Bremmtown map has never been changed. Afaik, you cannot find a proper Bremmtown map by googling. That's why I had to write a very simple Bremm map when I wrote Melee Necromancer guide.

cheers! that guide looks like a bachelor thesis. a+ for effort (also, for a mod thats probably played by 3000 people), i salute you good sir

so, the map IS small. the bremmtoen map via google was MUCH bigger and it was said that once you killed the first boss there are no walls anymore (?). anyway, it feels like a fantastic farmspot, and the probability of dying makes the traprat interesting again.

also, the massive boni provided by sets seem to outweigh most if not all su by a ton. i havent occupied myself with where and how to achieve those ssu/sssu items, but i will have to read up on that. having a full set is such a MASSIVE difference to tiered unis, its ridiculous.

Thank you for your words. :) Actually, what google shows you as 'bremmtown map' is in fact, a map from different uberquest. 'No walls anymore' probably refers to Duncraig, which has been modified in Ultimative (there are walls between the rooms now; there used to be none some years ago).

neat! i need to check out duncraig. ratfink reanimates ftw! (the set makes the game TOO easy, to be honest. i hardly even get hit anymore)

p.s i did, i need to read a guide. how can mobs remove your shapeshift form? that happened in some areas before. mostly when i was reduced to very low hp. fascinating area tho, seems challenging!

When a shapeshifter druid dies he is left with 1 hp losing his morph. It has always been like this since vanilla LoD.
