Fun, fun, fun. I didn't even know about the quest map indicator.. no wonder I've been taking so long to find quest locations.

For the quest with the Gyger, and with Eldric, for instance, I just ran into the woods until I found a road and then followed that to the East coast.

I really got a bit lost in the swamps - the fact that there are two rope bridges confused me a bit there.

I actually played the Don side until you get the "disc" quests, and then decided I'd like to try out the Mages since they get tot do magic, and since you end up working for the Inquisitor anyway.

Well, let me tell you, I found the quests in the monastery on your way to becoming a mage, a lot more fun than I had found the Don's quests in the swamp!

What I did was is I restored a gamesave in Harbour Town, just before doing the last two quests for the Don, and did them for the mages rather. That impressed them, along with the fact that I had helped Belschwur with his soup kitchen.

So Commandant Carlos called me in and gave me a glowing reccommendation that I could use for becoming a mage. Fun, I tell you!

PS: The Eldric quest is quite a blast! Let us know how it went! I'm currently struggling with the next one, (I've got 3 discs by now, I think) but work has been keeping me from playing...

I loved the monastery quests, the murder mystery and going into the volcano. I was happy to get out of the swamp. Now I am in Chap 4 and searching tombs for armor pieces. The difficulty has ramped up a bit. Having the skeleton Fred has been a help at times.

Got through the Eldric quest with much head scratching and cussing (which is normal for me) and am now looking for another disc in the east temple. Trying to figure out what to put on an alter I found which I hope will lead me to the much needed disc.

oldman, there is a bugged door near the end of the east temple quest. Yell if you can't get through it. Several of the doors in the game will teleport you to the roof or the story above.

I just got my first Titan armor piece.

Thank you Pokey but I found no bugs and got the 4th disc after I died once on a spike trap and now just started Chapter 3. Whew!

I am liking this game. I think the voice acting is really good and am glad that there are cheats to get me through the rough patches.

I'm on my second playthrough, and that bugged door in the eastern temple caused me grief both times.

Fortunately, persistence pays off. If you walk through in just the right way, or attack while crossing the threshold, you can often get through.

There's a similar bug on one of the doors in Harbor Town, but you never need to go through the door, so it's much less noticeable.

This time through I decided to train my mage in pickpocketing, which I think was worth it, if only for the humor value. Yesterday I walked up to a novice and stole the staff right out of his hands without him noticing, which raises all sorts of logistical questions.

Then today I went to Rhobart and sold a bunch of Brugleweed to him for about 700 gold or so. Then I pickpocketed his entire supply and sold it back to him again.

It's too bad I can only get away with that once...

My favorite moment so far, however, came on the same mission through the Eastern Temple. I was in the middle of a mission to save a bunch of cowards, and one of them was waiting around for me to open the gate so he could escape back to the entrance. So I walk through a small hall in the wall, climb over a wall and start to battle some ghouls. As the ghouls charge towards me, I hear coward #1 shout to me--from the other side of the wall--that he'll com to my aid. Only he doesn't, presumably because there's a wall in the way.

A few seconds later I finish killing the last of the ghouls, and I hear the same guy (still on the other side of the wall) triumphantly shout, "And the BEAST is SLAIN!!!" As if he had anything to do with it...

Then on my second playthrough, EXACTLY THE SAME THING happened.

This game's crazier than a boat shop in a desert town.

Strange about the bugged door in the temple, I didn't seem to encounter that one, but I know exactly which door you mean in Harbour Town, Demosthenes. As you try to step into the room, suddenly you are stuck half-into the roof....

Two of us were playing on Tap-Repeatedly and we both ran into the eastern temple door bug. The surest way to get through is to transform into a nautilus. I tried other suggestions but only that worked. The other player got through by crouching sideways. The door to Oscar's place had a bug too.

The dialogue in this game is entertaining and the voices are very good.

Well I'm stuck again. I'm looking for Titan Armor pieces and have gotten into the tomb that is just west of the Volcano and East of the Don's tomb.

I need two busts and have only one and can't find the second one at all.
The map of where I'm at is Here

Any suggestions?

oldman, look to your left and up. That is where you want to go. You can levitate there but it is easier to fall through the trapdoor where the first bust was and then find a place to climb up. Look for lava.

Thank you Pokey but that is the Bust that I found. I did manage to locate the second bust I can see it behind an iron gate but can't figure out how to open the gate.

This X marks the place where I can see the second bust.

That's the one I was talking about. The one near the ashbeast. Check your map, right behind where the ashbeast was standing.

Thank you so very much Pokey. I was looking for a lever and not a bug hole. Found it and am now on my way to the 4th piece.

I really appreciate the help.

I just overlooked a nautilus hole in my search of the 4th tomb. Now I check all sides of a room if I can't find an entrance. I'm about to start the 5th tomb tomorrow.

Well I've gotten 4/5 of the Titan Armor pieces and now on the 5th cave I'm lost. When I explore this cave which is on the east side of the volcano I can't find a magic barrier and I eventually end up on the other side of the volcano where I already got a piece. I've successfully gotten a piece from each of the other 4 but am missing something here.

Tjhis northwest red dot is where I'm at and can't seem to find the tomb.

I think I am at the right place now but again I can't find a second bust. I am in a room where there are two alters on each side of a stone door on my left is a room that I have to use telekinesis to get "Bust Of A King" on my right is an iron gate that is closed. I can't find any switches or Neutilus holes to crawl through. I really need to find the second Bust of a King.

Oldman, I can't find anything so we'll have to wait for a bit for a vet to help you out

oldman, that sounds like the tomb I just finished. Check my last post.

Thanks once again Pokey. I had looked and looked for the Nautilus hole and finally found it. That was the hardest one for me to see but I got it and am now preparing to fight the Titan. I've watched the youtube videos of the final fight and for some it may be easy but for me..................we'll see.

Now that I've struggled through all the hard to find parts in the game guess I'll replay it joining the order or whatever it's called and pay more attention to all the side quests I missed the first go around.

Now I need help. Remember those banging doors right next to the big trapdoor? I am stuck on the other side of them. I didn't drop through the trapdoor, but instead went through the gate to the side of them and jumped across the lava to the lower level where there is a button beside the door. I reached a dead end there with the doors and can't get back.
Any ideas? Did you get by those doors?

Pokey, have you tried reading the threads Here?

Pokey I'm not sure exactly where you are. Which red dot on the quest map are you exploring? I might remember if I knew which piece of armor you were going after.

Sorry, I am at the west tomb behind the waterfall looking for the greaves and brassards. The trapdoor and the banging doors are soon after you enter. I went through the gate to the left, jumped and got stuck. Were you ever able to run through the banging doors?

I assume you mean those things that come down from the ceiling and crush you. It took me a while to figure that out. If I remember correctly you can run/jump past the first one and you have to use telikinesis on a switch just past the second one to turn it off.

You can find many many questions and answers on this tomb at the Risen Boards. Just search for "waterfall". I visited there many times to get through that tomb.

Thanks. I didn't know if it was possible to get by the first door. I found the lever on the other side. I had to teleport out and reenter the tomb. I've done all the winches and lowered the bridge. I'll try the door again later.

I'm stuck with the Patty quest. I wonder if I've misunderstood the quest. She takes me to a graveyard, and tells me to start digging.

Although I have two shovels in inventory, even though I've clicked all over the place, he doesn't start digging.

Am I supposed to look in this graveyard? Or over the rest of the island? If it is this graveyard, would someone please tell me where to dig!

Or did I perhaps miss the fact that one can somehow equip the shovel? Believe me, I've tried…


I'll be forever grateful and saved from insanity, for some help re this issue..
