    It should happen immediately. You will get a message "character gained 1 intelligence" or something to that effect.

    Maybe you didn't do them all.

    Here is the list from the FAQ:

    That stinks. I did not have that problem. Perhaps you have a save game from before that you could retry with.

    [​IMG] Are you certain that you used your main char to use the machine? The bonuses go to whoever uses it, not your char.

    I used different chars for the different bonuses but noone got any stat increase. The only thing i got was the mace. When i fiddled with different combinations to see what happens i got the message that i had lost 15 lvls but no levels were missing and i got a message that said i had lost one point int but that didnt happen either.

    As far as I can recall I had no problems with it either. If you have negative plane protection the level drain (obviously) won't affect you, but about the stats thing-can't help you there I'm afraid.
