This patch only addresses Light Path fixes and has addressed the following known 'bugs'.

1. Those 'pesky' barrels and torches that dissapear and then reappear upon reentry into a map area have been fixed. They must be selected once for the correction to take place. For a new game they work fine. For a game in progress,
either select them once (save your game first!) or just ignore them.

2. The Watchers Ring of Elemental Water is no longer carried by the Guardian Sylph. It is placed **on** the island. For a game in-progress, simply return to the island to get the ring.

3. The text concerning the Harmondale teleportal hub has been limited to Farswell.

4. The Wonka Quest has been limited to Blyze.

5. Swordsmanship (Expert Sword) can only be acquired on Emerald Island.

6. The end-game logic, from the "Alliance" quest forward has been reworked to make it FAIL SAFE. This involved deleting one of the cinematic scenes, but so goes life. This patch is the only way to 'guarentee' that you can complete the Light Path game.

7. The Alliance quest 'destination' can no longer be entered until the actual quest is given.

8. Falk now properly promotes to "Priest of Light'.

This patch has **not** bothered to address minor text 'display' issues that don't affect game progress
(re; extra quotes, mispelled words and the-like).

/******************************************/
/******* A couple of Hints/Spoilers *******/
/******************************************/

1. The well that takes the party to the Blue Guardian Trove remains active until you return with the quest items to
the messenger for the promotion. If you delay the return to the messenger, build the party in strength/level, then you
can return to the trove as often as you want and defeat the guardians. The unique-item reward carried by the
Guardian may be worth this extra effort.

2. Before embarking on the Alliance quest, make sure that your party has several Blue Magic Potents and/or
Town Portal scrolls. Otherwise you may not make it 'out' alive.

3. The Hurler of Mountains is quite easily defeated if you use the proper weapons and tactics.
Otherwise, be prepared to get 'stoned' to death.

4. The Map Giver will only appear if you enter his map area carrying **all** relevant scrolls.

5. If ya wanna have some fun, lure some 'monsters' to the Map Giver and watch him work.

6. Keep on the lookout for "Strange Torches' and similar sprites.

7. With this patch, you won't be able to complete the Wizard Promo until you reach Evenmorn Island.

***************** NOTE *****************

You will **not** be able to complete the Dark Path in this game, so don't 'waste' your time trying to do so.

!!!!The current status of the game is Light Path only!!!!

ForTheFunOfIt

This silly little mod 're-classifies' the Blaster Rife. Yup, that's right, the Blater Rifle. During the Alliance Quest (recognized when you see the text "Erathia has been betrayed!") the party will collect four of these rifles of a somewhat enhanced nature. Since this quest **could be** given as early as 1/2 way through the game, these rifles could be used during many of the side quests and a couple of the End Game quests.

This mod changes the status of the Blaster Rifle from a melee weapon to a missile weapon. With a Grandmaster Skill in Ancient Weapons, the missile-classed Blaster Rifle provides the party with an almost "never miss" (60-80 to-hit) ranged weapon that does some decent damage before the opponents can close for combat.

For those players that prefer to deal with your enemies from a distance instead of engaging in a 'ground and pound', mono e mono, face-to-face contest, this mod's for you!

Anywise, this is just for the fun of it.
