    Ok, I've looked around, and for the life of me, I can't find this Amii chick for the swamp lotus quest Liv added. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

    Thanks

    There are both violent and non-violent solutions, though this is one time you will not be able to talk yourself out.

    Maybe Lareth has some advice.

    Nitweolf, I tested this last night. Both chests were working just fine. They are after all exact duplicates of each other... in fact they are the same chest.

    Are you sure you were using a PC and not an NPC to interact with the chest?

    I simply could not replicate your problem.

    ok i finally got him out. i kept talking to me untill he gave me an idea of how to get him loose. i got him out of the cell but if i try to just walk out that starts the violent way. dont know if you intended it to work this way but once he was in the party i teleported out of there to avoid fighting everyone. then he took me to his hideout, hmmmmm wonder where that was lol, and gave me the option of waiting on some supplies or taking the gold then. i waited and got to talk to an evil merchant, who shall remain nameless, that had lots of stuff all masterwork for sell. works well once you gave me enough clues to figure it out lol. sorry for being so dense. it will be great for neutral or evil parties but i cant see a good party following that route. i did it just casue i wanted to see what happened. very nice Liv :) now ill just keep an eye out for that flower next game i start, which will be when you bring out the 2.0.

    Keeps crashing

    Any time I go to Rannos, and ask him "I'm looking for master...."the game crashes.

    I'm going through with a CE party.

    I recently finished the moathouse, had Lareth show me the guard house, then let him go before I went in. Once in the guardhouse I was able to convince the brigand leader I was Lareth's friend and that I'd bring Lareth back to prove he was still alive.

    Upon talking to either ranos or gremag I get 2 identical options saying that I'm looking for the master have you seen him. When I choose either of these options the reponse from both Gremag and Rannos is "E:". My next dialogue option is just to say goodbye.

    This seems quirky enough that I thought I'd post and see if this means there is a problem with the quest. Has anyone else seen this? Should I be concerned?

    Okay, well as wierd as that dialogue option is, it didn't prove to be a show stopper. I was able to find Lareth and go to his hideout.

    hey Liv i had an idea about another way to present the evil swords as a reward rather than Thrommel giving them since i just cant see a LG hero handing over a powerful evil weapon. im putting it in here since it involves spoilers. how abut a evil party gets thier sword as a reward for killing Thrommel, or someone else important, and lareth presents them with it in the broken tower. think we can do it?

    Spoiler:
    I'm playing the L's 1.5.1
    and I'm afraid of missed something
    - Corl's son has been killed after some time that I revealed that it was him to poison the lambs, then the quest doesn't go over.
    - I found swamp lotus, gave it to jaroo and the woodcutter told me about the secret magic mercant. The point is that after 99 days he always repeats me that he is waiting for an answer: "maybe tomorrow".
    If there is something that I have to do to trigger new event, I guess that I missed them because the game really doesn't give me any clue about how to go on.
    - the ranos & gremarg quest is in violet color: why? I revealed them to Brune, then I spoke with them, taking the shortsword as reward, then I killed one and then the other when we went looking form me in nulb. Did I miss something?
    Any clue please?

    hmmm violet means you know about the quest but havent taken it yet. like the courrier quest or marrying fruella.

    the other merchant from the wood cutter dose work. i just pasted time for 100 days and then went back and asked him and it was avalible. then you have to wait for you order, dont remember how long that took.

    i had the same problem with Corls son. his father wouldnt tell me anything new no matter what i did or how long it went. i finished the game and he still hadnt changed his story after Corl died

    Maybe I'm missing some step. I don't know: I played the game so many times that I'm making things automatically, but maybe I forgot some step or something changed with Liv's mods.
    But during the game, I always reached a point where I spoil R&G activities to brune, I'm paid 100 gold, the courrier in the stables tells me that they are spies and, when I talk with R&G, I have no way to spoil that they are thieves or to openly declare that I'm here to kill them in name of justice (or whatever), but I may only force them to give me money, gold or the position of the temple in exchange of the promise of keeping my mouth closed. I was never really able to take any mission that clearly ask me to kill them.
    Any clue?

    About the merchant, 100 days are really too much. A party would clean up the temple in less than 1 month: the time required is really too much than the one needed for a party leaded by a not-expert player to clean the temple.
    Instead of waiting so long, I would really prefer another subquest where I have to help the courrier that is bringing the wizard's mail back to homelet, that maybe has been captured by an orc tribe. I don't know.

    Yep, I totally agree.
    This is a common problem in several quests/rewards. Even waiting 30 days for Scather is too long as you encounter Thrommel half way through the temple and will be finished the game before the reward is due.
    (Note: I've never ever used Frag or Scather anyway so I don't really care about this one, but it's the principle that counts!)

    If Romag can set an assassin on me within 24 hours, why can't rewards alo be granted in a more reasonable timeframe.

    I think the timeframes were guessed at considering the distance and mode of transportation/horse,etc. You can speed things up by devising a rescue scheme for the countess and prince early, like around dungeon 1, but it's risky. You need a couple of fighters with 50+HP and a wizard with fireball, maybe Burne. Prepare to fight 4ogre/shaman, a GTB with 90HP+ogre to resuce the countess. 3 air elementals, and ettin(124HP), and a cube to get to the prince. If you make it without losing anyone, you're lucky. The ettin gets Elmo sometimes depending on the rolls. Then make lots of trips up/down Nulb/Hommlett road and continue with temple. They will show up sooner or later. My success rate with my scheme is pretty good.
