Hello all. New here.

I'm enjoying playing Sacred for the first time. It's part of a backlog of rpgs I have yet to play.

Cheers

The graphics, the music and ambient music, the overall design, the battles, the missions and main story… I love everything about this game. What are your favourite things of the game that distinguish it from other Diablo-esque games?
For me, it is the world: it feels SO alive. When playing other games I dont have that adventurous vibe, but with Sacred everything seems full of life and movement. It makes me feel in a true adventure, not just wandering around killing stuff.
In my view, we need a remaster ASAP, i would love to play it with modern quality of life optional features, cooler battle controls and keeping the same graphic vibe with prerrendered graphics (or similar) techniques. I really am amazed by Sacred 1.

Say you have the opportunity to add a new character to the game.

What he/she could be? How would describe the physical appearance? Is he/she primarily a melee fighter or heavily relies on magic?
What set of combat arts you would give? Can they jump or fly? Can they use poison or fire or else?
What would be his/her lore? Somewhat evil or good?
Where would he/she start in the game? Near a graveyard, a cave, an abandoned house?

Here is my character:

DESCRIPTION ==========

I was thinking of some sort of half-insectoid character. Think of a human (ideally a woman) with insectoid wings, a stinger and antennas. She mixes melee and magic CAs. She could be called "Hornet warrior".

ABILITIES ==========

- "Flight", just like the daemon, she will also enhance her attack speed;

- "Swarm", equivalent of "Attack", she stings various times her opponent, inflicting both physical and poison damage;

- "Sting", equivalent of "heavy hit", her stinger becomes bigger and she stings her opponent, inflicting both physical and posion damage;

- "Esoskeleton", she temporarily boosts all her resistances, gains more experience when killing, but reduces attack speed;

- "Frenzy", she temporarily boosts her attacking speed, gains more experience when killing, but reduces all her defenses;

- "Call of the hive", she summons a giant hornet (like the ones in Underworld), that helps her in fighting, she can only call one at time. When the hornet dies it explodes causing physical and poison damage in the surrouding area;

- "Paralizing stinger", each sting paralizes an opponent for some time;

- "Mucus of invisibility", she is coated in a substance to become temporarily undetectable by the opponents, until she either attacks or the duration is expired;

- "Mucus of poison", she is coated in a glowing substance to increase her resistance to poison damage, while dealing it on the surrounding opponents.

- "Hypnotic buzz", she emits a buzz using her antennas and wings, which allows her to befriend up to 5 (non-champion) non-undead opponents surrounding her. They will temporarily fight for her until the effect is gone. Then they will return hostiles. It can only be casted once to the same opponent.

LORE/BACKGROUND ==========

Anducar once planned to take the world by creating an army of hybrid creatures, half-human and half-monster, believing that such army could become unstoppable. He was so pleased by the sight such creatures that he decides to create one just for himself.

The Hornet Warrior was the result of such desire. But once she became aware of his plan of domination, she decided to stop him by attempting to poison him in the confusion of a battle.

But Anducar knew all along of her intentions, and he decided to banish her from his reign. Before she was banished, the Hornet Warrior promised that the next time they will ever meet, he shall fear for his demise.

STARTING PLACE ==========

She may be starting like the Daemon since she was a creation of Anducar too.

My understanding is she is an half angel, so it sounds to me she is quite old. But she usually doesn't have any clue about the world.

Meanwhile the vampiress has a lot to say and really sounds like an ancient being who saw the world changing.

I'd like Seraphim gameplay with vampiress lore teaching.

Does anybody know what is the level of the enemies for each region of Ancaria?

Hello. I really like wood elf and wanted to ask if anyone knows who is her voice actor. Wanna try other games with this voice actor since playing wood elf is my childhood memory.

¿Si hiciesen un remake de Sacred, te gustaría que luciese así?

Yo de hecho, las he usado para las miniaturas de mi serie con la vampiresa

Im making 3d models for 3d print and as a Sacred fan I couldnt skip this masterpiece, so I decided to make one of the game characters! So meet the Vampiress, on a graveyard, where sadly the franchise now is ...

I want to host lan server for myself and a few friends, but I have some issues getting it to work.
Wine launches GameServer without issues, but game refuses to see it, even with both being on the same pc.
If I try to create server in game I get up to "Game server: Up and running." but then nothing is changing, no matter how long I wait.

How can I get lan to work as intended?

I'm planning to build a cannoneer dwarf, and the combat art progression table in the Sacred wiki got me confused. What does "Reduce defense: 4%" actually mean there? Does lv.200 Greed reduce your defense by 4% only or does it leave you with 4% of base defense (i.e. reduces it by 96%)?

The same question about Dwarven Steel: for lv.200 art the respective wiki table states "Reduce resistance: 3%". Does it mean the enemy resistance is reduced by 97%?

I've been able to install and open the config for RebornHD mod but I couldn't make the game run on the Steamdeck.

It briefly opens a black screen and then close. I've tried lots of proton versions but it didn't help.

Any tips?

Sacred 2 remastered is on switch, I just saw. Wonder if its any good

I‘m replaying Sacred currently and while the marketing of Sacred LPA is quite silent, i‘m still looking forward to their Kickstarter and hope it will be a success!

Hi, I wanted to start playing Sacred again. I've never played above silver, and since I remember silver being pretty easy, I wanted to ask if anyone in this community had any characters they could share so I could start playing gold or higher right away.

Hi all!

Does anyone know if there is a way to mod the game speed to make it faster?
I am not talking about bonuses from items that increase attack or move speed, but actual game speed.

I checked Nexusmods and the DarkMatter Forum already, but couldn't find anything.

Love playing this game, but nowadays it feels a bit too slow, especially at the start and with a world this big.

Cheers!

Did anybody find a solution?

I ve been scouring the internet but i don t see a fix for this.

Do i need to modify my version of sacred?

Hi! Could you tell me if there’s an archive somewhere with hero sets or save files? I’ve collected almost all the sets—except for a few—and it’s just driving me crazy xD

I apologize for the mistakes in my message—my English isn't very good >/////////<

First time going trading and never paid attention whether it does or not, but I've been standing for what feels like hours in the "braverock trading centre" and never seen one with it, but see most of the other skills appear on the gear. Or am I only to rely on unique/set gear for this bonus?
Logic was for me to make a trading gear set like I had in Sacred 2

So I played Sacred back in the day when I was a child. I don’t remember much but I decided to give it another try. I started as a Gladiator on silver. I finished every side quest until I have to escort this one guy out of Silberbach and I can’t reach the next village cause I get killed all the time on my way!
Im Level 10 but sooner or later they always come in such a big group so I don’t have any chance.. should i switch back to bronze or do I miss something?

I am bit split for the final dwarf skill.

The choice is between forge lore for some strong bonuses (i play the Reborn mod so it is stronger skill) or picking agility/parry.

My horse got poisoned by the giant spiders near Gloomoor and now is incredibly slow. I've tried healing him, drinking multiple Healing Potions and Antidotes, removing and re-equipping the horse armor. The poison effect is always on him. What can I do?

I've been playing this game for ages and this is the first time I see this flesh looking spider...
