> Sacred Guide: Pevils Horse Builds, General tips to make horses work

Sacred Guides at DarkMatters

By Pevil:

Pevil is one of the most beloved and respected players in the game. Her patience with new players and her carefully wrought-out and kind responses to new players has won her fame and acclaim. This guide is a wonderful introduction to the use of mounts in Sacred. The addition of Underworld made the use of horses and bridles even more valuable than before. And if the extra work in using a horse it your style, this guide will lead you upon your way.

> Sacred Guide: Trading, Time and the Bigger Picture,

Sacred Guides at DarkMatters

Why trading WILL pay off

By gogoblender

This hotly disupted but very popular Sacred skill is explained why, for patient players, it's use in building the most perfect characters is a must-have. Why building your trading suit is important, why better socketables are more important, and how it all works together to give you the extra little edge that means everything to the expert player.

> Sacred Guide: How To Add Widd to Your Build, Best Damage Mod in Sacred

Sacred Guides at DarkMatters

By gogoblender and Schot:

WIDD is the most dangerous but powerful Damage Mod in the game. It can also, if combined with the proper amount of Life Leech, serve as a dynamic defence system that will keep you alive through almost anything as long as you have enough leech and are making hits. Especially good with long ranged characters, it can more than quadruple or quintuple your damage if your health is low enough.

> Sacred Guide: John K.C: Defence and Physical Regeneration in Sacred, Comprehensive paper on in-game

Sacred Guides at DarkMatters

By John K.C.

Comprehensive paper on in-game Mechanics done by John K.C. This is a nicely detailed article which features a very in-depth description and examples of resistances and defence in the game. Defence (Ability to reduce the times you're hit) and Resistance ( The reduction in value of the damage that subtracted from your healthpoints) are two things of note that will ultimately determine whether your toon will make it to niobium or not. Yes, the big damage dealer does that...deals damage. But in Niobum, monsters hit so hard and so fast, that not having these two components of your builds balanced out will end up will serve you up with a dead toon...fast. ^^
