    quick upgrades and money

    I am having a very hard time gaining xp, money, and levels.
    Could the people that have finished the game so quick (the under 40h club), please give us n00bs advice on how to level up and get $$$ faster?
    As with a few people, I'm having serious difficulty with the Troll cave.
    I get smoked in 2 shots, every time. All help is appreciated.

    Well, if it helps, I managed to finish the first troll cave at level 5 without a bow, and with the starting equipment. The only thing I brought with me were 5 healing potions. The trick is to only take on ONE troll at a time, and save after killing each one. I tried to only use my healing potions if I absolutely HAD too, and would reload my game if I used too many. I've also maxed out the "Fast Learner" skill which gives you an experience bonus on each enemy you kill. Oh, and be sure to bring along a set of lockpicks for a few nice chests along the way. Good luck!! :D

    I found the Goblins first, and they were easier.

    Then I farmed them to earn enough for a decent sword and armour. Fast travel there, kill the first three, go into the cave, kill the next four, then fast travel back again to the same area (it allows you to do this) then the Goblins will have respawned. They all drop a little gold, plus a 60 gold shield.

    Feel kinda dumb asking this but: Food. Can I eat raw food just harvested from boars, deer, etc? Or is that just to sell? Have a ton of it. Thanks!

    This. Took me 10 hrs, but a lot of that time was wasted just wandering around and grinding on orcs. I'm playing again with maximum skill level and it's even more fun, but really challenging took me forever to kill the bandit leader.

    Someone could give me advices for fighting with Blade? The blocking keeps receiving damage and I don't know how to parry, also, the best strategy for fighting it's hit n' run, it is the only way?

    Also, what's the matter with the skill level for the Blade? My Blade Skill is on 85 and I don't notice any difference

    Hey is there a proper way to report bugs?

    Also, I just killed the Snow Yeti while I was in The Terraces. The quest says that he's supposed to be found in the White Iron Peaks. Seems like he got lost... that happen to anyone else?

    Don't go by the game clock --- it's completely wrong, by a factor of 1.5 to 2. In any event, the 30 hour estimate was based on no fast travel and finding everything in the game.

    Thanks for the help! Im finally getting though the game. biggest difference was buying a crossbow. levelled up fast after buying it. Anyone else have an issue entering north aven after defeating gulch? I can travel to south aven, but the game consistently crashes when trying to travel north aven. I've shut all apps down, restarted the ipad, re-opened the app, but its still shutting the app down.
    Thanks again, and happy slaying,
    A

    Use the winds spell to move the boxes around and the jump from box to box to get across.

    Your're in the right place, check the skellington to the right of the chest, by a pillar if i remember correctly?

    Also anyone know what levelling up your skills actually does? i see you can train them all up to 140 but what difference does that actually make?

    FYI,
    If you have trouble entering North Aven (game crashes), abandon all but main quest, and you'll be able to travel to it.

    Tips for ravensword

    Hi guys incase some does not know yet;
    1. If you want to get money without killing, break boxes and barrells lying around for income
    2. If your game crashes, abandon the tournament or heirloom quest, this will work.

    Hope this helps any noobies to the game

    Doesn't work. I'm on first quest after freeing the apprentice from the bottle. Have the ore for the other. Destroyed ore and dropped all quests but can't drop main quest. Restarted multiple times and even deleted and reinstalled. Still crashes immediately after loading screen to north aven. For a while I could get in but it'd die as soon as I hit the "menu" button or randomly after seeing the smithy. Now it doesn't make it past loading screen at all but plays fine in that first zone with the boars

    On 4S with 5.1.1
