Hi ive been playing TTOEE for a long time now on and off. Recently started a game with a chaotic neutral party and for some unknown reason i cant find a way off the first map!!!! Im in the starting dungeon, theres a door to the right and left, you go into the right door, kill the elemental then go get the key for the left door from a chest. Go through the locked door, kill 2 undead zombies then move into the next room to the north and theres a chest thats locked. I cant open the chest and i cant find a way off the map. Is this a bug or am i missing something? Ive tried everything i can think of! There are no doors or staircases that i dont already know about and using the seach finds nothing anywhere on the map. Its doing my head in... lol Cheers
Use your rogue to pick the locked chest open to advance the game, if you have no rogue, use whoever you were going to use to pick locks to try it instead, the DC isn't too hard IIRC. I take it that since that is the first map you've encountered that you either haven't installed the shop map, or (dare I say it) haven't installed the Co8 5.0.0 mod at all? I'd like to take a second to plug Zebedee's complete installation instructions thread which is stickied in this forum, failure to read this thread will usually result in an unsatisfactory ToEE experience.
I got stuck there before as well, and did not have a rogue and no one could pick the lock I then tried it with a single wizard who I leveled up at the traveling bazar before the first map and gave knock to Well that didn't work, because when I knocked the chest, I would go to open it and it would not key the rainbow rock go to homlet scenario So I eventually had to give my wizard a rogue side kick and did it again with the rogue picking the lock, then it worked
Hmm, i have installed the mod but im unsure about the travellers shop? I will have to read some more... I am definate;y playing the modded version though through the front end. I have no rogue in my party, nor do i want one, i may need to create a new character and give them more lockpicking skills. Really annoyed that its purely this thats stopping my advancement. I tired to pick the lock about 20 times at one point and failed every time with lockpicking skill at 4. Cheers for the fast replies guys
Last time I tried CN, it was with a bard as party face-man, instead of a rogue. I reached that chest. I regretted my choices
Yeah, that's a stinky map for an opening party. Solution might be to put a key to that chest somewhere on the map? It's just unfair on some party builds otherwise...
