Excellent map--a lot of fun to play, really consumed my weekend. One point of concern or not)--I actually managed to solo the game as the troll strength hero w/out cheats of any kind. Between his massive health/health regen and really sweet ability to do damage based on his health, and damage anyone attacking him, I was off to a good start, but what really put it over the edge were the two items that gave a (2 and 7% respectively) possibility to boost his stats on hits and successful spell casts. Also, those shrines where you could boost your stats didn't hurt. Combing the soul of whatshisface (that reset ability timers) and the dragon summoning staff really paid off too. By the end of the game, I had close to 350 strength without items (my other stats weren't doing too bad either). It was slow going (a lot of back and forth between the respawn stones), but by the end, I mauled the final boss.
But this brings me to my reason for posting. I found nearly all the secrets, but I can't figure out for the life of me where the last few are or what to do with the master's chambers. I found in between 18 and 20 (of 21) secrets (I can't remember which), but I can't find the last few. I even turned off the fog of war after finishing the game to try and find them, but no dice. I think they must have something to do with the master's chamber, but its functioning completely eludes me (do i need to type a password into the chat? are there items i need?). I also can't figure out the purpose of the orc right below the first volcano (apart from the reference to the original orc campaign). If you could pm me with any tips, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Again, thanks a ton for a great map!
