I am also new, have some questions, tried to make post, but 8 hours later it still didn't show up...

1. What is the burning debuff you get from the fireball spell and the fiery sword, what does it do?
2. What is the first ability for the thief? What does it mean by "new monster", one I didnt attack before?

1) Each point of burning causes your fireball to deal 1 extra damage. Burning goes away if you attack another monster or attack the monster with a non-burning attack.

The burning effect used to be an item you could prepare, but the fireball glyph basically sucked and was never used without that item, so it just got folded into the effect of the glyph and the item was changed.

2) Yes, it means the first attack against each monster deals extra damage.

Hello, I'm glad to have preordered the alpha, and I don't regret it. I'm a new and pretty bad player atm (I can't even complete the puzzle with the pushing spell). Here are some questions (since the game is becoming hard really fast) :

- Are random dungeons doable with every combination of classes/race or do you need luck sometimes (without any preparations, and if you play really well) ?
- How do you usually kill the way highers levels than you (without them regenerating their whole life) ?
- Is there a way to do the 3 firsts maps again (for the completion). They disappeared so I don't know if we are able to get them later.
- When I have found the halfling. I just exited the dungeon, since I could not complete it, and the quest was done. Is this intended ?
- What does the exclamation marks on dungeons actually means (since others dungeons also have quests) ?
- Is there a way to download the alpha somewhere (I can only play on the website and didn't receive any download link with my order) ? Also, is there a way to play it offline ?
