Well Row I'll still be around the almost end game waiting for you.

I've made it inside the Dark Ring's lair and am now trying to find the first dark ringer lol All I've done for the last half hour is hop from one teleporter stone to another and not get anywhere but dead ends. I have no idea how to get to where I think I need to go.

Row I did the same thing you did - read those notes but never put them in inventory - had to do what you did - back track and pick them back up.

Not to worry, at the rate I'm going right now, I'll still be wall hopping when you get here.

That one particular castle (?) is confusing with all the teleporters, but I have confidence you'll figure it out in no time. So what level are you now, Syd?

I'm at Level 45 1/2 and I'm not so sure I'm going to figure this out - I keep hitting dead ends but hopefully tomorrow I can see something I'm missing tonight.

I'm at level 38. I have been looking for that treasure map cave and can't find it. I've been looking around those cliffs on the Dark Forest between the place where the troll attacked me and the very top. Can anyone help me zero in on the exact location?

Row it's almost to the top of the map hidden behind some pine trees. I think I found it in the second jut into the cliff.

I just killed Cornelius and made Lever 46 happydance and am now after Dark Ringer #2 (whoever is in the yellow crystal encapment)

Row, do you remember where you met the urn collectors on the road? The cave is just northwest of that location, with a little ledge and trees/bushes.

row, syd is right in that the entrance is located near the top of the map. press ALT when you are near a tree to see the cave entrance as it is very well hidden. good luck!

syd, level 46--wow! you are doing great! you are almost at the end.

Syd, what did you use on Cornelius? Decided have to level up to get him. He knocks off way too many life points with that spike spell.

Thanks. I found the cave entrance. You should see my biceps now. I had been moving every movable boulder along that cliff wall. eek

Now that I'm in the cave, I notice there is a region toward the SW that has many red crosses for baddies on my mini map. I just can't find the entrance to it. I've been looking for doors or movable wall but nada.

Acornia I used good old maxed out Elemental Hail on Cornelius. Only took me two bouts (I teleported out once) with him to blow him into dust. As soon as I saw him I started clicking and kept at it until health was about 1/4 left then I high tailed it out of there for a rest - then went back in. I was actually surprised he went down so easily lol

I'm still stuck in the treasure map cave. How do I get into the SW rooms? I've not found any movable part of the wall, and I've tried to put my personal teleporter over the wall but it won't accept it.

I'm trying to figure out just what you haven't done, Row. I'm guessing you used the lever when you first walked in. Have you done the thing where you pick up the crystals and put them on the altars?

Nickie, I don't see a lever when you first come in. I have found all the other levers that open the locked doors. I didn't do anything with the crystal balls because my character keeps saying she can't use them. I did see 3 dishes with crystal balls and 3 dishes without, and one other one near where I can't get into those SW rooms. I have no door there.

Can you drag the crystals to your inventory? What you need to do here is gather the crystals and put them into the southernmost bowl. You can get to that bowl right? Let me know if you can't do that, and we'll try and figure out what you haven't done.

Thanks again Nickie. The trick was using the crystal balls. I guess I was too trusting when the game told me I couldn't use them. Did you see the memorial to Sept 11th that the makers of this game hid in the cave? I thought that was a special surprise.

I have 4 unsolved quests left in my list. Theseare probably done, but are missing a trigger to recognize them as done:

1)To Rivertown - I found a letter in a cave that says the black market is rampant in Rivertown, and Marcus wasn't getting his wares. Talking to Marcus doesn't trigger anything.

2) Find the truth about Tingalf - Trevor believes that Tingalf is selling wares without a licence. Talking to Tingalf or to Trevor doesn't trigger the completion.

3) A bottle of wine - an exquisite bottle of wine is needed by Corinna. Pierce has sold it to Anthrabert who is a merchant living in the Ducal Inn. I've already solved the Corinna quest. I had found an exquisite bottle of wine in one of the inn rooms and given that to her. Can't find an Anthrabert.

4) The cellar was rented to Dr. Elrath - Need to find the doctor again to complete my conversation with him. Don't know where the jail is tat he might be in. Completed all else about the poisoned fields and the plague.

Any ideas of what the missing tiggers are? Otherwise I'm off to be blessed.

Also how much money will I need in the wastelands. I may just go on a selling spree to make money. Also what should I be stocking up on? Especially which potions and which skills and protections? I never did get the Dragon Armour quest. The dwarf king won't mention it and i have all the pieces as far as I know. Also what are the most useful charms to put in the armour?

Great!!!! Yes, I did see that memorial, thought it was a sweet touch.
You get the very best charms in the Wastelands, but they're expensive. If you have any charms now loose that up your spiritual stats I would keep them.Charms you have already put on stuff are stuck there though, and can't be taken off. You did get your teleporters back, right? (If you didn't, there are actually an extra set in the Wastelands).
As a survivor, you may be using different skills that are helpful to you, like the scorpion trap. For me, as a wimpy wizard, the disc spell was a must for getting through the ton of baddies (I could do it other ways, but it took ages). Potions are pretty much as plentiful there to make, if you have the alchemy spell - if not, I'd load up on potions. Several baddies drop mithral (sp?) armor that is really good there too.
Those two quests re Tingalf seem to be finicky in what order things are done in them. I had completed everything when I played as well, and the quest did not show completed.Anthrabert should still be at the inn, did you do an alt check for him? Sometimes the characters seem to sort of disappear.
I don't think you can find the doc again after the other quest, but I could be wrong!
Did you show the hammer that you recovered to the king, and he still didn't tell you about the armor? I guess you could try going to the armory guy in the Dwarven Halls anyway and seeing if he will "fix' it. But I had to dump it when I got to the Wastelands because it was too expensive to fix and it broke in every fight.

Well after an hour I finally got Iona - yeesh she was a toughie. I was pretty cocky after wasting Cornelius and Demona without much trouble, but Iona put me back in my place.

3 down 2 to go and then the real bad guy (I guess) laugh

Row to get the king to mention the Dragon Armor you have to give him the note that's found in the tunnels that implicates Gregor (I think that's the mayor of the Dwarven Village's name)

I had the same quests as you that were shown as unfinshed but I know I got the experience points so I decided not to worry about it.

About the only thing I did was try to get as many potions as I could - I stocked up on Magic and health. Still haven't used any of them yet - I'm using the teleport and sleep method still.

Nickie is right - the dragon armor is junk and it costs a fortune to fix. I left most of it at the council of seven and wore a silver breastplate until I found the mythril breastplate - it's much stronger.

Have fun in the Wastelands oh soon to be Divine One laugh

Well, Syd, here I am ready to join you in Wasteland. I decided to forget about those remaining quests in Rivertown. Since I couldn't put Tingalf in jail, I decided to trade some stuff with him. Nothing like being a good survivor that I am and taking advantage of a situation. evil Basically I'm just exploring my surroundings and making my way across to that black lake.

Syd, are you finished yet? Acornia, are you finished? BTW, what happened to levels 39-42? I jumped from 38 to 43. Does anyone playing this game actually get into those missed levels? Maybe someone who has killed every single beastie. I know I missed a lot of corpses in the northern sections.

thumbsup Way to go , Row! Wasn't Kroxy funny? "I thought I was a warrior, but I'm a priest!" laugh Don't forget that you have one quest to do before you hit that black lake - find the Dragon. And of course, don't forget the rule when you're faced with a two ton beastie that can fry you on the spot - be polite! lol

Hi Row and welcome to the world of the Divine One laugh Personally, it doesn't seem much different to me lol

Nope, I'm not done yet. Still fighting the 5 black ring guys/gals. I'm on the last one - Josephina arrrgggghhhhh - I'm not looking forward to her again - just hope she doesn't kill me too many times.

Have fun in those Wastelands - they are HUGE! and there are lots and lots of baddies.

Are there any teleporter stations as in the first area? Haven't found any. So far I'm using my personal teleporters just to keep my stash in one place. Whenever I find something that might be of value, I zoom back to Kroxy's house and litter his yard for later use.

Haven't had time to play. Think am going to level up some first before trying to tackle Cornelius again. Think he's the last one before the big baddie. Been using the repair skill on my dragon armor and not bothering with having to get it fix though probably will when get to the last battle.

I just got the last mini baddie - Josephina is history - again lol I'm now on my way to the main baddie of them all and the fortress he's in sure looks like a big one.

Row I don't remember any teleporter stones in the Wastelands - I used my trusty 'ole portable teleporter stones - still am laugh

syd, if you got the last mini baddie, the final boss will be a piece of cake. the worst is over.

row, if you need to get somemore charms buy them from kroxy rather than the shaman as the shaman has much higher prices. josephina is the only difficult battle in all of the wastelands. there will only be a teleporter stone if you arrive at the wastelands with one. there is also an excellent sword to be found in the wastelands.
