[Coco] Stuck in Paladin's Legacy Again

[Allan Chaney]

Fred,

No problem.  Yes the mines are tough without the Elven Torch because it gets
darker the deeper you go.  (It's a nice touch of programming if I do say so
myself.) :)

Anyway, the Elven torch can be found by entering the mines on the other side
of the mountains.  The Torch is in the second level after the very simple
mazelike first level.  The Torch is in the first room you encounter on that
second level in a black box guarded by two orcs.  There are some other
chests as well.  To go deeper into the mines from this level you'll need to
keep your eyes peeled for a secret passage.  Just look at the moss texture
on the walls and if the moss looks different, just try walking through the
wall.  One game quirk you will want to be very aware of is that there is
only one save game.  And the mine levels refresh  with creatures and chests
every time you enter them.  So if you are running around deep in the mines
and very low on health and you save game.  That's it. That's where you are
saved.  Given your health status, you may not be able to make it out of the
mines because every mine lvl you enter in order to get out refreshes with
creatures.  Just make sure you have some health potions (purchased at the
cathedral) or better yet.  Save your game just before you enter the mines
and then don't save again until you get out.  You don't want to get stuck
down there and not be able to get out.
It will also help once you find the Sorcerer's Eye.  This lets you see a
bloweup map of all levels and maps.


Spoiler for End Game:
The mines form a V that goes under the mountains. It's 2 levels deep on each
side of the mountain converging into a shared 3rd level at the apex of the
V.  Then if you find the secret passage in lvl 3 (bottom right corner of the
map) you go even deeper for 2 more levels.  Tons of treasures are found in
level 4 and in level 5, you'll have to access the boat to get around on lvl
5 since it's flooded.  You don't need to own a boat, you just find one in
the level.  With the boat you can actually leave that map lvl by sailing out
between the wall squares.  This loads the final lvl of the mines where you
will find The Keeper and the Mystical Armor and Weapons of the Paladin.
Along with a bunch of really nasty creatures.

The Keeper will teleport you to the Nether Regions where you will face the
final Bad Guy.  But believe me you're not ready for that....yet

Allan

If Allan Chaney is out there listening, I've got another question for 
you about Paladin's Legacy. Here's where I'm at up to this point:

I have acquired all 5 scrolls. I've got the Ring of Teleportation. I've 
got the theives kit, climbing gear, snow boots, some really good armor & 
weapons, and my experience level is now 7 (max 1750 HP).

I've descended into the mines near the dwarven city, in an effort to 
find the elven torch. I've gotten down to level 3 and so far I can't 
seem to find it. I can't get past level 3 of the dungeon because I keep 
running into a nasty creature called a "Balron" which I am unable to 
defeat. What do I do? How do I get past it?

Thanks,
Fred Provoncha
