If you run, you have zero defense

Fun fact about this - you can "walk" at run speed in full Trang-Oul's Avatar, maintaining your defense. Unfortunately, all the breakpoints are worse while in

Vampire form for some reason...

Oblivion Knights used to be able to cast

Iron Maiden. This meant that high level melee characters could get killed instantly even in normal

Chaos Sanctuary.

Yeah, sure.

Oh yes, the dreaded

Iron Maiden curse.

Chaos Sanctuary was such a pain to play through as melee back then, I basically CRAWLED through the place. Slow and steady wins the race lol.

Oh that brings me back. That was indeed Hell...

In act 2, sometimes

Atma places herself in the path of the door and you can get "trapped" in her inn. That's why there is a side door on the right.

Maybe more useful than useless

In a bind, your cursor is an additional per-character "storage" slot. To pick up an item with an already full inventory, just open your inventory first, then click the item to pick it up (if your inventory isn't open, it will just tell you you're overburdened).

You can save and exit a game with an item you grabbed still in hand which you don't want to drop. Lliterally click the "save and exit" button with the cursor being the item instead of the hand icon, or alt+F4 to fully close the game. The next time you enter a game with that character, the item will still be on your cursor, so you can safely drop & sort it in a private game...or if you're really that out of space.

Can come in handy for big items, especially with the currently-imposed storage limits.

Kind of... There's a fake place looks like Hellforge.

If you hold an

Eth weapon.
Useless but cool

It's in the game - yet not in the game at the same time.
