Ultima III - Day 4

After many trips to Ambrosia I build my stats up to a decent level. Now I don’t die as often as before. I’ve been challenging the dungeons to get my marks. Its been a long hard fight. I can’t say the fighting tactics are for my liking. Makes the game run very very slow.

I now have to brave Castle Exodus. This looks hard. I have the codeword given to me by the mages “EVOCARE”

Ultima III - Day 2

Today I had to create a new party. I kept dying. I decided to try and change my tactics. This time I’ve thrown out the thief and chosen a ranger. This seems to be working a lot better. I find Ultima III very hard, a lot harder than the previous Ultimas.

The messages from the conversations are pretty cryptic and even with the hint guide its tough. I’ve basically been staying close to Britannia, killing monsters then running back to town to heal. I braved a dungeon and found the mark of kings.

I can now level up my hit points by speaking with Lord British. I make my way down to level 2 of Perinian Depths and found a found that healed all my hit points. Very nice.
