BM purple/blue glow

[trojanphoenix]

Hi there everybody.

My first post here, and also a question:D
Hope you understand what im saying......heh

Soooo :
My BM is in bronze, nicely lvl-ing. Almost only set items on. But as I eq another set ring, the mage gained a fine purple blueish glow and stayed like that. Ehm....what should that be?
First I thought it was something with the casting rate, but the glow wear of when i unequipped the ring, or the other set ring i had. Then I thought it was because I had many sets on (about 5 or 6, armour 1 set type, helmet another, shield another...and so), but when I removed another set(armour), the bm was still glowing.

Any ideas?

PS: Sorry if it doesnt make any sense

Can upload the screens or the items if it still doesnt ring a bell. THX

Hi Trojanphoenix

I think it has to do with the ring. Purple is the colour of magic, does the ring have a magic property? You can also get a green (poison) or red (fire) glow around you if you wear items with certain properties.

Hmm, this could be the case.... cause now i inserted another amulet (not set) and the color changed from blue(magic) to orange....(magic+fire maybe?)

But when does this happen? If you reach a certain amount of dmg in that, or a certain amount of defense? I think the second one.

But the question remains, on what bases does it turn on / off ?

And one noob question (sorry bout that ) : What is the main difference between the difficulty settings bronze, silver, gold....ect?

I don't really know why and when this glow turns on/off. I am not exactly a newby, have been playing Sacred 1 (SP) on and off for over a year now, but I am not one for figuring out the 'technical' stuff. Don't ask me about numbers and percentages, I just play and see what happens! :-) But I too think it has to do with defense. At the moment my Wood Elf is wearing an armour with high poison defense, and her glow is green.

The levels just keep on becoming more difficult. For instance, I have tried to start with a Gladiator lvl 1 in Silver, but I just couldn't get past the opponents in the arena. I think you get more enemies in certain situations.

Anyway, I hope this helps a bit.

Sure it does. And i think i have to deal with purple orange bm for a while heh.

So, thx once more;) I think job well done;)
