    There are no ranged weapons for your character, and Wisdom is most useful to start at 18 and up it a bit and use tattoos to keep it around 25 until other bonuses come in.

    I started off with STR at 9 and ended around 23 and I only put a few points in it...there are a lot of things that can raise strength so don't worry about having it that high early on. Your NPCs are good at fighting too so you don't have to be.

      BTW, what had me confused about healing was that The Nameless One seems to self heal constantly, with no need to rest to do so. Morte, apparently, does not. I thought this was do to wearing the Embalming charm, but it turns out that this is not the case, and that the charm has a limited number of uses, as Jamski stated.

        yeah, The Nameless One has the ability. Only two other characters do too.

          well i restarted last night. It seems very hard to explore the top level of the Mortuary without getting into a fight with the dustmen. Of course the resulting fights are easy to win, but I wonder if Im missing some potential interaction by doing so.

          I found a

          and so im not sure its a good idea. I think I'll go back to an earlier save, and try to get the encounter.

            If you are disguised as a zombie you can move freely around the Mortuary. One of the zombies on the ground floor is a fake - he's really still alive - and he will help you with your disguise


            That's how to move freely in the mortuary - if a little slowly...

              ah ive met that guy, but didnt see what the point was. Thanks.

              Is it worth it - I mean I do get lots of experience killing off everything there, but it feels like a "dungeon crawl" when I do that.

                Its worth it. You'll regain a memory or two.

                  uggh, means restarting yet again.

                  Still, i may go ahead and do it, since Im not sure id want to play through again once i finish the game.

                    I think you can also say something to get away from fighting the dustmen. Or just run away from them.

                      Yeah, running away seems to work. I managed to get the Mortuary santum key that way. Now to get the disguise, I need to turn over a needle and embalming fluid. I already gave the above to Ta-Viene (sp?) to get the other key from her. Now ISTR theres another needle and more fluid somewhere in the mortuary, maybe on the first floor, but Im not sure. Also by not going around killing zombies and dustmen, im not getting so much stuff, so maybe I cant get another needle and fluid. Im kinda thinking its not worth getting disguised and going back to the top floor, having already fully looted it. Might as well just go talk to the person Dall mentioned, and then depart.

                        Why? Just continue the game . Restarting is boring.

                          well, despite avoiding the dusties on the third floor, I still ended up in nasty combat on the first floor - so I ran and left via the portal - Id already had the key encounter on the first floor. Went out to the Hive (No Yang here, it seems ) Its quite rough. Not trying to fight all the thugs with only the two of us, so I run instead. Did finish exploring the area near the mortuary, went West.

                            although if you hang around the first area of the hive, and do a certain quest, a guy will be nice enough to let you use his house to sleep and rest.

                              Or you can rest in the room with the tomb that the mortuary portal exits too.

                                that's what I'd have to do if those thugs roughed me up too much.

                                It was a little tough at first, but before you know it, no street thug will touch you .

                                there's this one street battle that was real tough. It's when this damsel leads you to an ambush.
