Major issues. Need help.

Ok, been playing this since yesterday. I got a lvl 23 troll and a kick-a$$ orange weapon that I am not going to be to happy about losing if I have to start over.

I decided to jump online with my troll today. I joined a game, helped some kid get a few kills and then left the game because of the lag.

I go to play my character in the normal game, and I am back at the refugee camp at lvl 23 with all my items, my 2 companions all my gear/stats/items and my map is still explored, but now all the game quest have been reset. even the main quest.

How can I restore my saved game before I went online. I noticed a backup folder in the save folder. Is there anything I can do there?

There is a Playername.plr.bak file, if it hasn't already been overwritten you can try to restore it by simply renaming the files

ie erase the original and rename it to Playername.plr.bak to Playername.plr

I had to do this when someone online did a tech quest and I lost my 100% nature. :/

Thanks, that did work. I lost 3 lvls, but I am ok with that. At least I didnt lose my Orange Weapon.

Sweet!! I found something similar, but it's a poison spear.

I'm level 40+ and I haven't found a weapon above blue in the whole game. In fact I have 3 characters over level 30 and none of them have a weapon above blue :(

I started to see orange items yesterday, after I allocated some skill points to the "find magical items" skill (I'm up to 7). Plus, I put a backpack on a new companion, with a "chance to find magical items 30%" or something like that (can't remember the % right now, but it was around 30). My character is a level 38 now.

I have some orange/brown items, but not a weapon. I want a red/purple item before I move on to Shivering Isles. The DVD is sitting there and it calls me....

I picked up a level 64 Volcano Spear roaming around Dwarf Town and killing everything. A nice toy.

What frustrates me most about this game is that it seems anything can drop any item in the game, its just chance. Roll of the dice. I can't really tell if the difficulty affects the drop rate but it annoys me that its just a grind session to look for an item. There isn't really a loot table to the game. And its a 0.0001 chance of dropping a red :/

As follows:
Loot chance of anything dropping at ALL: 0.35
Yellow: 0.12
Green: 0.04
Blue: 0.01
Orange: 0.002
Red: 0.0001
