Hint: Duplicate items: Export one of your characters with the item(s) you
want to duplicate in his or her inventory. Put the items into
another character's inventory, then arbitrate the character that
you exported. Delete him or her, then import them again. The character
should have all the experience and have the duplicated item(s).
This is a good way to earn money and create multiple copies of
rare and expensive items. Lightmage015.
Hint: Easy experience: When inside Kresselack's Tomb, past the first big door,
will be a Skeletal Mage named Mytos. If you are polite with him,
and opt for a nonviolent solution, you will get extra experience
points before the fight. Jon Rick.
To level up a character easily, have only one character. Go through
the first quests at the starting town. Then, save the character
as an import. Start a new game and load the import. Do the same
quests as if you were using a new character. It does more difficult
to level up, but it is possible to get your character to level
22 before going to the next town. Zimmy.
Hint: Easy and early gold: When in Easthaven, do the quest involving Jhonyn and
the blue-skinned woman and earn a pearl. Return to talk to her
(immediately before she disappears) . If you are quick, you can
talk to her again while she is disappearing and she will go through
the same dialogue -- and you will get another pearl. If you are
quick enough, you can get three pearls, each worth 100 gold pieces.
