Quote:And get killed by the first enemy... or if you beat it have no mana left and die at the next... and without a good safe resting system (like the platforms in Arena) getting that back is a pain. Quicksave and quickload until you rest without being interrupted, I guess...
If you're a fighter you won't run out of mana, mainly because you won't USE it. I remember starting out I had to save and reload and rest and save and so on a lot, but not really too long, maybe for the first few hours. After that I started getting better at using the system, as in getting better weapons and armor and buying a lot of healing potions and raising my stats. It takes a little work, but not an unreasonable amount. Also, you don't get interrupted while you sleep THAT often.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.
