Thanks Durante!
Always was a huge fan of M&M, but I felt like they fell off sorta after the Xeen games. I've only put a couple of hours into this one so far and it feels great. I equate Grimlock with the Eye of the Beholder games; they fill a certain niche. I was always more fond of the open-world games like M&M. Can't wait to play this more.
Best job ever.
Yeah, I have the same preferences. Grimlock was great because there wasn't anything like it in years, and what was there is solid. But M&M X feels like a complete RPG package to a much greater extent.
Jesus christ, this game is LONG. I got 40 hours played and just when I think that I finished act III I got ANOTHER main quest in to complete, LOL. Granting, I'm doing every side quest possible, exploring the world etc...
Anyway, I finally found the Air shard but to complete it in the Elemental Forge for the respected blessing I need to solve some really annoying puzzle and I fucking hate annoying puzzles. But if I don't do it my two characters won't be able to promote to their prestige classes. FML....

Agreed 100%
I much preferred M&M 3/4/5 instead of 6+
And Grimlock was a good small effort, but doesn't compare at all to M&M 10... this is much better.
The user NIghtygriez from the Ubisoft Forum postet what seems to be a nearly complete list of the trainers.
You can find it here

Man. I'm loving this game. Been awhile since I've stressed over the min maxing in an RPG. I feel this limited resources in the world weight on my shoulders and I'm avoiding spending anything without feeling like its a great choice. The combat is solid and I am enjoying exploring the world and finding all the chests.
The graphics are rough though. I need to bump everything up another notch. My 660ti seems to be holding up just fine.
I think a ranged char would be helpful to get some early poke on monsters but it needs to be a secondary ability because melee just too important.

Getting back to this, you can find the answer to this riddle in Karthal. So at least you can solve this by yourself, if you are paying attention and read the gossip of the NPCs around.
I just finished the lighthouse, and I'm really happy with my difficulty choice. It was sufficiently challenging for my party, particularly the part where
.
My next "quest" is finding a primordial magic expert trainer, since these identification prices are an affront. If there's anything about the game I'd have to criticize it's that I haven't really found any in-game method of locating trainers. Loving everything else.
you fight 2 elite and 2 normal Kenshis at the same time

That's located in the
wagon labeled "Itinerant Merchant", North of Sorpigal when you head towards the castle
I have just finished the Lighthouse as well, Adventurer feels quite challenging but I'm very happy with my party choice, everyone seems to have useful things to do during fights.
Also I kinda liked the Lighthouse boss, the best tactic was
just hitting him with Lightning Bolt, since he was gaining extra strikes from blocked attacks. My Blademaster almost got the party killed when I was attacking him full on, but if you just chill and toss one spell per round, he's actually pretty weak 
If you don't want to rob you the "pleasure" of finding the trainer yourself, I posted a link to a trainer list some posts up.
I'm just starting the game today. Do the trainers not tell you where all of the other relevant trainers are when you talk to them (ie expert swords tells you where master and GM are)?
It's not a "silly Steam comment". You realize that if EVERYONE uses Steam that they have no incentive to compete and therefore no obligation to their customers, right?
Find me one example where a monopoly has worked out well for the consumers. Go ahead, I'll wait.
My problem was finding the expert trainer in the first place. It would be helpful if there was someone in the cities you could ask where to get basic training in X. But maybe I just missed it? Anyway, I'm fully trained up now
In the context of Might and Magic 10, which is not forcibly tied to Steam in any way, it absolutely is.
I suggest buying the game here: http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubina/en_...productID.296091800/Might-Magic-X-Legacy.html

Wow... I'm really pleasantly surprised by this game. It feels sufficiently "old school" while having a nice clean interface.
Still only just finished the first little spider dungeon, but I really like what I've seen so far. Seems like it has a lot of cool stuff to uncover.
My only gripes are the horrible environmental object pop-in in the town, and the massively inconsistent texture quality.

21 hours and still in Act 2. Loving this game.
Edit: This game really needs to be played in Warrior mode to be fully enjoyed in my opinion.

Did you fully finish the lighthouse as in not just killing the boss but solving the puzzle on top to turn the light back on?

what does the questlog say?
I just literally did this part. It kinda sounds like you are stuck :/
What I did after the
Bandit Caves: After I got the book and the woman disappeared from my party, I just went to the orc at town who's been giving all the quests. He had a new quest for me, which directed me at the big castle I couldn't enter before. I haven't done any of the optional dungeons in the area (two caves and the crypt), now have I found the sword.

For those who finished the first part of the jassad quest, did he give you anything as a reward? I didn't receive anything, no money, items or xp.

it seems like you're stuck, you should have a quest to return to maximus.
you definitely do not need to find the sword, you cant do that yet

where was the sword?
Yeah, I already talked about the interface earlier but it can't be said enough how good a job they did on that. And not just the HUD character sheets, inventory, skills or log (which are all excellent, both in terms of function as well as aesthetics), but also its speed. Once you get familiar with the keyboard shortcuts you can do everything extremely quickly (and even complete combat turns in 2 seconds - literally). I'm really impressed by that.
They even took care of some details I wouldn't expect. For example, when I got the identification spell I was positively surprised that the interface for item selection also had an "identify all" button.
Anyway, great UI design.
Yea it's great. Love the identify all function, so nice.
Sorry, I mistyped nor as now I haven't found it yet.
I haven't found it yet.The only thing I'm missing is the paperdoll inventory that was in M&M 6-8. It was really great seeing your heroes decked out in epic gear, but I understand that since it's kind of a budget title, they don't have that
Did you redeem your code in-game as well, under bonus content?
If all turn based games allowed me to set enemies to 400% speed and complete my turns in 1 second flat I wouldn't always be concerned about them wasting my time. Of course, you simply can't really achieve that speed in any game where you need to continuously reposition.
Anyway, about the lost lambs quest.

I am really unsure about whether to let Luke go or not. That's a good thing. I do wonder how it will affect the final outcome.

I killed him fro the xp.
I'm glad the interface is good. The most prohibitive aspect of the pre-6 games is definitely the interface.
I did the same in the end. Still, I do have some regrets, particularly after I heard the story from the traveling merchant.
I'd actually say it's "great", not just good. There's almost nothing I'd change in it. Only having multiple skill bars, and an option to display more at once in higher resolution. Well, and because I'm bonkers about map notes I'd like to be able to select the color of the map notes I add
All glass cannon all the way so far. Have like 34 Magic and Spirit and 6 in everything else on both my Freemage and my Druid
But I generally either divert attacks to my tank or have that light magic spell up which absorbs damage. Still, once there are more enemies which do AoE damage I'll probably be forced to level HP a bit.

You might be onto something with your feelings.
I killed all three and handed it in.
Ok, seriously, a mother lets you kill her three sons, because they went delinquent and is unable to do it herself because she cannot kill her own children? That women needs help.
Graphics question:
I have everything maxed in the video settings. Does anyone find it blurry in dungeons? Like off in the distance (2 to 3+ tiles away) and even the enemy models themselves.
It almost looks like there's some depth of field thing going on, but I really don't like how it looks.
Outside environments I don't really notice it, seems a lot sharper in general. Just wondering if everyone gets this or it's something with my settings.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
So off topic, but that's a pretty bad example. They needed other competition lighting a fire under their ass to do good things.
It's a mild depth of field effect. You can see it here for example:
I generally like the effect, but in some cases, particularly with distant enemies, it can look a bit strange.
Thanks for the reply Durante. Yeah it looked like some kind of DoF, I just didn't know if it was on purpose.
Yeah the part that jars me the most is it's also applied to enemy models... looks really bad on that. For the environment it's not as big a deal.
Wish I could turn off DoF separately.
