All excellent advice, thx all...
Even those with marginally helpful comments - they all add up and I got a good laugh out of a couple...
I've tried about 15 times now so its not working for me.
I've gone away to level up a bit more first and to look at better armor, etc.
Kira is nowhere near 6000 hit points at the moment and I'm just under that as well.
Can someone please explain how to craft better armor, weapons etc???
thx again
