MM7 - Emerald Island: The Anvil and Well trick!

[adyghost]

I read somewhere that pushing the Anvil "button" and then using the well just across from it should trigger some benefit or other... anyone have any idea what that's about? Never understood what the "button" was for, the well gives 1000 gold under certain conditions.

[koval321]

Yes i remember that anvil have mysterious button, hah!

[adyghost]

Any idea what it does or what it's for? Still trying combinations with the opposite well...

Also, any strategies from insane folks who managed to kill the red dragon?:)

[vladimir-maestro]

left-right strafe in real time mode and simple bow
about 45 minutes of such insanity and it's yours!

p.s. do not forget to save the game every 5 minutes...ofcouse some of your party could die.

[adyghost]

Oh... well, that sounds simple enough. Think I'll pass this time...

No luck on that anvil thing, maybe it was cut out of the final release or patch... damn, it's really bugging me.

I`m sure the anvil does nothing. The well will give you $1000 gold twice, if you have under $100 gold and have luck 15+.

[GrayFace]

What button? I've never seen any buttons on Evernmorn Island.

[adyghost]

The anvil is in front of the armory, when you approach it is states "Button" in the info bar. I found the link where they say it's supposed to do something: http://www.flamestryke.com/mm7/flamestrykes_mm7.html
Just click on Emerald Island on the map and scroll down the list to where it says The Anvil + well: push "button" & use well; limit: once per week.

[adyghost]

I`m sure the anvil does nothing. The well will give you $1000 gold twice, if you have under $100 gold and have luck 15+.

Actually it only gives you 1000 gold once, provided you have 200 or less gold AND someone with 15 luck or more.

[Bowerbank]

Yeah that's an anoying one prehaps its as simple as: you get 1000gold once per week? I will have to replay this game shortly. its' been so long and I dont really hold a good knowledge on the game either, so it should feel fresh. I just replay 6 too much lol

[Variol]

Right, it is $200, but I'm sure it does work twice. I've done it.

[adyghost]

Hmm, maybe once per day or something... Did you activate the well twice when you had under 200 and 15 luck or separately?

[GreatEmerald]

I think that the button does nothing, and the well gives 1000 GP each respawn (you can track it by seeing if the dragonflies are there). I think the first respawn happens soon, like after a day, and then later respawns are each week.

[adyghost]

Off the topic, but if you were using a dwarf monk, would you maximize on might or endurance?

[Variol]

If you're using the mod, you might as well put endurance way down, because the well on the Island will give you a big boost anyway. Put it into might.

[GrayFace]

The anvil does nothing:

Code: Select all

event 63
      Hint = Str[15]  -- "Button"
  0:  Exit  {}
end

The well refreshes once a week, but you can't drink from it more than 3 times.

[adyghost]

If you're using the mod, you might as well put endurance way down, because the well on the Island will give you a big boost anyway. Put it into might.

Which mod are you talking about? Not using any mods in my game by the way...

[Variol]

I think it's Maestro's. It's been a while. With the vanilla version I would put both up pretty high, since you get both at a 2 for one; right? I'm sure it's both. Drop luck, 'cos you can get points on the Island. Drop Intel. you don't need it.

[adyghost]

Hmm, I'm thinking of something like this:
Mig 20
Per 9
Int 9
End 30
Acc 9
Spe 9
Luck 7

My dilemma is should might get 30 instead?

[vladimir-maestro]

Both MODs got this - BDJ's and Maestro's.
