The vest of flameproof is in world seven, the tomb of praecor loth. If you fall down ANY pit, you appear in a room with a trap-door in the ceiling. From that room, go up the steps to the ladder and ascend to the next level. The LEATHER VEST in that room is no ordinary vest, it is a vest of FLAMEPROOF! The Hand Axe of Fire Doom is in world five or six, but it is the Scintilus Mage Academy - whichever world that is! You must then enter the ethereal vault... where the room with the Vas and Tym runes, and the chest. When opened, there is a jeweled hand axe. THIS IS NO ORDINARY AXE, but the Hand Axe of Fire Doom!!!! The Sword of Stone strike was VERY hard to find, and I did not even know I had it because it looks like an ordinary dull sword. I think I found this in the tomb of praecor loth also, but I am not absolutely sure. I think I may have found it in one of the tombs there.... just lying on the ground unloved and untouched. All the other items I cast enchant multiple times on, and they increased to there current power level - after all, my character is a MAGE! ****** CHEAT INFO AHEAD ****** Now I have to admit, I did cheat my stats some.... and here's how you can do it too. Goto offset 34 in the PLAYER.DAT file. Change it to 00. Load the game. See what happened..... the skills are saved in about the next 20 or so hex's, you must experiment randomly to get good results, or find out the exact scheme. I think I know it, but have been too lazy to actually make use of it - it requires good hex manipulation! Now, after you are satisfied with your skills, pick up the rune bag ONLY and save the game. Goto hex OFFSET 69,70,71. Change these to FF. Now restore the game, and look at the rune bag.... you will see something similar to:L A B - D E - - H I - - - M - O P Q - S - - V W - This would then be represented by one's for the letters (runes) and zero's for the blank spaces (no runes) 1 1 0 1 D hex 1 0 0 1 9 hex 1 0 0 0 8 hex 1 0 1 1 B hex 1 0 1 0 A hex 0 1 1 0 6 hex You would then change the FF FF FF you previously entered to the new hex D9 8B A6 from above. THIS WILL BE DIFFERENT FOR EVERY PERSON! This should give you ALL the runes in the game - if it did not work, then you made an error in the editing! I hope this info helps. Since I also now join the list of people who beat the game, any questions about quests may also be directed to me. Have a good Inauguration - now we have a new president. Brad
