Re: BT 1 - An enjoyable and hopefully optimal Party?
Well I've got my party to late game now (Lv. 34) after a few weeks. The Hunter was just... pretty rubbish. His critical hit attack didn't become significant to maybe level 20, and not even close to reliable until level 30. But that's not the worse part. His equipment choices are so weird and limited...

What platform/emulator are you using? I'm using the The Bard's Tale app from Apple's App Store. It is running on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X, 10.6.8. Let me know if you need any further details. Thanks. Might be similar to the Android version, which stores its files in disk images. The character...

Re: BT 1 - An enjoyable and hopefully optimal Party?
I'd go for #1: Paladin - dwarf #2: Monk - human #3: Warrior - half orc #4: Bard - half elf #5: Conjurer - gnome / elf #6: Magician - gnome / elf IMO there's no point in putting either a rogue or bard in your front 3, because their single hit won't put a monster down no matter how powerful their weap...

The original game was coded in 1985. The ports to iOS were done, what, 2 years ago? It's unlikely the people who ported it played it back then, so... Not exactly true. (Technically, the game was never ported to iOS - it's just emulated.) But , the Apple IIGS port was done in 1986-1987, maybe two ye...

iPad/Android version bard songs
I think the Android or iOS version of the Bard's Tale: Tales of the Unknown is just an emulated Apple IIGS version. In fact I'm pretty sure. What I'm not sure about is whether it has fixed bugs, either in the original Apple IIGS version, or in the version now emulated. More specifically, I can see t...

Hunters and critical hits probability
Hi, I've recently got back into the Bard's Tale 1 on Android, although I played it many years ago on C64. Back then I never used two character classes: Monk and Hunter, because they seemed pretty terrible starting out. In my last game (which was deleted because of a firmware update, harumph! :evil:)...
