Choice of quests? Spoilers

chano, you will find a list of all of the potential quests in the game by viewing the following file (using a text editing program such as Notepad) within your game folder (I say "potential" quests because some of the quests may not be implemented in the game yet):

Ted, I found the

, I'm just not sure what to do with them. Everything I've tried so far has come to naught...

 

Can't find Castillian

Can someone tell me if this is right or bugged, before I continue on and commit more time to this...

Spoiler

So I get the letter/pass from the merchant guildmaster, and then the Bailiff even signs the back. I want to see the Castillian to get a trade arrangement between the Keep and Lord Axer, and this letter is apparently enough to get me into the Inner keep by Brennan the gate guard.

Once inside I'm pretty much free to wander around anywhere, and even pick up the death book for Flay, but during the wandering I can't find the Castillian, and noone talks to me. The advisor says nothing to me , the Lance Corporal nothing, the Cavalry Master nothing much. Occasionally a guard will stop me and tell me the letter isn't enough to be in there (even though it is now signed by the Bailiff), and from there I have to give an excuse about masterwork weapons for the Bailiff to avoid jail or combat.

Am I on the right track that just needs another piece to the puzzle, or is there a bug?

 

Thanks Gazra:thumbsup:

 

trying KOTB as a solo monk wish me luck!!

 

I'm still running around looking for things to put in a chest so I can talk to Franken-gobbo's master.

I got the Master's letter legally, he gave it to me. Next the Bailiff signed it, then the Corporal led me to the Scribe, then to the Cavalry Master, which led me to the Curate, which is where things died.

I was almost sure there would be a continuation with the Curate, so I... checked out the Curates DLG file, and it seems there's a bug in getting his response IF you have already met him before. Entries {203} and {204} have an extra open parenthesis right after the variable 'npc' in the conditional call which disrupts the flow of the dialog and prevents the line from appearing where you can ask him about the blessing.

Code:

{not get_1(npc()} 

I believe this means that particular quest is roadblocked if you already talked to the curate earlier. But now I'm moving along with the quest just fine. Had to debug with blinders on so as to no spoil anything.

I love experiencing my own prejudices while running the quest.

"Ah Ha! It's that rude Corporal, I knew it!... Oh nevermind."
"Ah Ha! It's that gentle brainy scribe, I knew it, it's always the quiet ones!... Oh nevermind."
"Ah Ha! It's that Pompous cleric, I knew it!... Oh nevermind."

And yep, I bought the parchment, but not till my 2nd run through. I was just curious and now I see it's value.

 

SPOILER

I chose the dragon quest with the lizardman, but now can't find any clues for the adventurers quest, I've searched the whole map hitting <tab>, there's the door at the bottom that leads back to the world map, I've also found the precious stone stash but nothing else... tired of looking, can someone give me a clue?

many thanks.

 

I've been to the caves with the dwarf in the pub and cleared up his problem, though I get nothing as a reward from the dwarves. The critters had a couple magic items though, so no biggie. I then went to the next section and killed something gray and something I could barely give a hoot about These two fights leveled me to level 2. I then did the spider forest and the cave, though I haven't entered the secret area se of the momma spider yet. If you enter that one before giving her the item she seeks, you miss out on a quest, though no exp, if I recall.

I played town sewers, then help dwarf in the cave, then the next cave, then spiders, the merchant hole and then Billy. That should be vague enough. I've dropped the dwarf NPC so I get more xp and I'm doing the lizards and their nemesis next. I just leveled up to 3, so I might be level 4 when I face the lizards' foe. Having a blast.

Possible bug: If you attempt to heal the lady dwarf, it acts like you're attacking her and the dwarves, including the dude in your party go hostile. I didn't try killing them, because I'm playing good.

I still don't know if Flay is a bad guy, but he's definitely not good. My paladin thinks he's evil, my cleric is dubious and the rest of the party don't really care. He's paying the bills

 

Zoroastre, Shiningted already gave you the clues that you need in order to get back on the trail of the missing adventurers (in post #7 of this thread):

I believe that Shiningted is implying (or is the correct word "inferring"?) that Lord Axer (at the Thorp of Lord Axer) might give you some information about the whereabouts of the missing adventurers (if you can't find the clue in the lizardmen cave).

 

Whenever I search a room there are 4 ways to find things, and I usually do all 4 of them before leaving an apparently empty room:

1) Search (concentrated), from the radial menu (I have this set to 'S' for ease)
2) Secret Door Search Tool, from the radial menu (I have this set to 'Z' for ease)
3) Hover over the area with the mouse and look for containers
4) Tap the TAB key and look for things lying around

 

Zoroastre,
