Stuck on imperials quest

Spoiler

I killed meru in al-akia, but my quests didn't update and now im stuck on the imperials quest,worth mentioning that i destroy maadoran, and when i went to speak to meru he only had dialog about maadoran, dont know if there was supposed to have any dialog about the imperials.
this are the quests that i have now

Spoiler

Is there a way to ask around for Domitus in Maaldoran?

BTW I think I may have end-roaded my first character that I built on a whim. Can't find a reliable way to earn gold.

I increasingly feel like an idiot, but is there a manual for this game?

 

[Shadenuat]

I did't get any XP for finishing Boatmen line by siding with guild, shouldn't there be some?

Is there a way to ask around for Domitus in Maaldoran?

Spoiler

Yes, the guide near the arena. You'll have to do some searching yourself to actually find him, though.

 

[Wolfe]

Spoiler

Is it intended that even by the end of the game you still have the rank of Agent (low-ranking agent, actually) in the Commercium, despite being such so involved in the events that had just taken place? Sure, you only executed (or not) the plans of Linos/Strabos/Athanasius, but you were in the middle of it all and achieved it with your skills. It's only a minor complaint, but I'm curious to see if it's intended or not.

Ending slide:

Spoiler

The banner says Regnum Aureus

 

[~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-AIN'T]

Spoiler

As a HA praetor I got double XP for killing Meru. I took him to Al-Akia and then killed him after he became Bhaal, so when I left Al-Akia I get taken to Gaelius who says good job here's 31 XP.

I then talk to Gaelius again and I get to say something about storming the city and killing Meru (which, of course, didn't happen), upon which he says good job here's 31 XP.

 

[Shadenuat]

IMO Power Armor should protect you from laser rays in Hellgate. Would be a good option for some characters.

A few typos, grammar, etc.:

Spoiler

http://i.imgur.com/vTvAnZ8.jpg - "involved into" -> "involved in"

http://i.imgur.com/1wouLZD.jpg - "It happened too fast" -> "It's happened too fast" if you want to convey immediacy.

http://i.imgur.com/YHOVRd0.jpg - "from what you've heard Decanii usually commanded" -> "from what you've heard, Decanii usually command"

http://i.imgur.com/fhqKKmy.jpg - "If you can take your money from me, they are truly yours" -> "...from me, it is..." (NPC speech) Also, the line "The door opens" caught me by surprise, since you never say that the door is closed behind the player. Does the girl slam it shut?

http://i.imgur.com/gWIzVq4.jpg - 1) "didn't know that your friends will end up dead?" -> "...would end up..." 2) "Well, it's life" -> "Well, that's life" sounds better 3) "you're lying in a pool of your blood" -> "...a pool of your own blood" also sounds better

http://i.imgur.com/qKl1oEZ.jpg - "I told you I'll take care of you." -> "I told you I'd take care of you." (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/y3c150S.jpg - "extract revenge on" -> "exact revenge on"

http://i.imgur.com/ntoXQA1.jpg - "left nothing, but crumbling towns" ->"left nothing but crumbling towns"

http://i.imgur.com/YTzX9ja.jpg - "comes to an abrupt end, when" -> "comes to an abrupt end when"

http://i.imgur.com/kYbpN0s.jpg - "I take it, you don't know" -> "I take it you don't know"

http://i.imgur.com/LPwtu54.jpg - "growing up" is a childhood thing and looks weird here. Maybe just "growing" or "growing rapidly"?

http://i.imgur.com/VCE7VtF.jpg - the "result" caption is repeated, and the part in yellow has a typo. Presumably meant for deletion.

http://i.imgur.com/V1T83X3.jpg - "wound. he" -> "wound. He"

http://i.imgur.com/OpEm0R4.jpg - "have an unfinished business" -> "have unfinished..."

http://i.imgur.com/lsAqKF6.jpg - "So, why I shouldn't kill you?" -> "...why shouldn't I..."

http://i.imgur.com/9Z9Ib8x.jpg - "sweating profoundly" -> not wrong at all, but "sweating profusely" is much more common

http://i.imgur.com/9Ij0NUW.jpg - "and sadly, the last of the Magi as the order fell when" -> "...the last of the Magi, as the order..."

http://i.imgur.com/QewLwk5.jpg- "a magus... as thou art, who hast" -> This phrase is a bit unwieldly: "a mage as you are, who have". I'd change it to "as thou art, who hath". Or maybe the unwieldiness is intentional?

http://i.imgur.com/ASGISwP.jpg - "match the penetration power of armor-piercing bolts or brutality of barbed arrows" -> "...or the brutality"

http://i.imgur.com/HsQ6mJO.jpg -> "a map you acquired" -> "a map you've acquired" - really minor

http://i.imgur.com/KNzAEKP.jpg - "The trick... is not the rarity though" - "However, the trick...". Using "though" like that is out of character for a loremaster, I think. Also, is "kobald" meant to be cobalt, using the old German spelling?

http://i.imgur.com/lYUyrOc.jpg - "do his biddings" - not wrong, but the common phrase is "do his bidding".

http://i.imgur.com/xG1sswF.jpg - " 'speak', " -> " 'speak,' "

http://i.imgur.com/XBqyBYQ.jpg - 1) "pre-occupied" -> "preoccupied" is the common form and looks less awkward 2) "nothing to be done, but wait," -> "nothing to be done but wait,"

http://i.imgur.com/Sw6Y6go.jpg - "the Maadoran's Palace" -> drop the "the"

http://i.imgur.com/Fpk0crV.jpg - "within reasons" -> "within reason"

http://i.imgur.com/s4QbQmC.jpg - 1) "the new arrivals are dealt with a surprising speed" -> "...dealt with with...", I'm afraid. Or "...processed with..." 2) "traders... goods... vultures... them... collectors... they... cutthroats... including their lives" -> "...including their victims' lives." The "their" goes all the way back to "traders", which is too much of a distance for easy reading. 3) "much like a drowning man grasps at straws" - strange mental image... soggy straws? Maybe "clings to a splinter of driftwood" or something of the kind.

http://i.imgur.com/gU6xAiu.jpg - "I wanted peace and quiet and what better place to enjoy it than Maadoran" -> "...quiet, and what..."

http://i.imgur.com/6DX46Jt.jpg - "thought that we fight...we have...has a" -> "...were fighting... we had... had a"

http://i.imgur.com/DxpFLY9.jpg - "dreamt to rule" -> "dreamt of ruling"

http://i.imgur.com/jliPI16.jpg - "privelege" -> "privilege"

http://i.imgur.com/3PAj3kX.jpg - "As much as I hate to admit it, but it is" -> strike either "as much as" or "but" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/d94jRGL.jpg - 1) "Ganezzar is": double space 2) "reign them in" -> "rein them in"

http://i.imgur.com/JsxDjL1.jpg - "feels soft to touch" -> uncommon phrasing; might have meant the traditional phrase "feels soft to the touch" instead

http://i.imgur.com/LFfLCi6.jpg - 1) "a couple coins is worth the delay" -> "couple" takes the plural in most cases, so "a couple [of] coins are worth the delay" or "the delay is worth a couple [of] coins"

http://i.imgur.com/0wpthD8.jpg - 1) "lets out a mirthful sigh then turns" -> "...sigh, then turns" 2) "by a long shot but" -> "by a long shot, but" 3) "The more I grow the more money I earn" -> "I grow, the more"

http://i.imgur.com/3XloDK8.jpg - 1) "gold in a Commercium's vault" -> for clarity: "...in a Commercium vault" (NPC speech) 2) "but I hardly notice it what with the Commercium's hand" -> "...notice it, what with..." looks right to me. Hard to tell with a phrase like "what with" though. 3) "let the Houses play their politics I suppose" -> "...politics, I suppose"

http://i.imgur.com/NcH6aDd.jpg - "(comma omitted)" -> I feel like this is an odd thing to say for a merchant.

http://i.imgur.com/WjrNdO6.jpg - 1) "it looks like a gladius but with" -> "gladius, but" 2) "slayed" -> "slew"

http://i.imgur.com/qjjWega.jpg - 1) "haughty nobles and their routines and guards" -> don't fully understand this. Maybe "retinues" instead of routines? Or "on their routines with their guards"? 2) "citizens seeking ruling" -> "rulings"

http://i.imgur.com/Uur6AgP.jpg - "but he the only thing he said" -> "but the..." (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/w8aZwxW.jpg - 1) "Except, Gaelius' legions, of course." -> here I'd strike the first comma 2) "he says finally as if the name" -> "he says finally, as if the name" 3) "if Antidas didn't run" -> "hadn't run" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/rB0OgnF.jpg - 1) "tougher bastard that I thought" -> "than" (NPC speech) 2) "laying low" -> "lying low" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/GWJsacD.jpg - "to find to find" -> strike repetition (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/Ypye4sc.jpg - 1) "by the time we've remembered" -> "we'd" (NPC speech) 2) "given a free reign" -> "given free rein" (NPC speech, but also misspelled)

http://i.imgur.com/saKmfVz.jpg - "whoever's made definitely knew" -> "whoever made it..."

http://i.imgur.com/a6RzyFR.jpg - "the the healer" -> "to the healer"; probably reported a zillion times already

http://i.imgur.com/IvJytnb.jpg - "he sent" -> "he's sent" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/razYotz.jpg - "The don't" -> "They don't" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/dXPBGig.jpg - "The archways... becomes the walkways" -> "...become..." (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/ieyBh9P.jpg - 1) "make better story" -> "make for a better story"? (NPC speech) 2) "I best be going" -> "I'd best..."

http://i.imgur.com/V6RtbX1.jpg - 1) "a few acres field" -> "...of field"? (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/b8j3nMy.jpg - "says one of the man" -> "....men"

http://i.imgur.com/yizF0hJ.jpg - "The man before you is in his fifties, his face is deeply lined and weathered, suggesting..." -> "...fifties. His face..."

http://i.imgur.com/r6KpvkP.jpg - "the longing usually reserved for the loved ones" -> "...for loved ones"

http://i.imgur.com/9vLJgyy.jpg - "look like they've been doing it for a long time, yet still around, which..." -> I would suggest "...doing this ... time. And yet they are still around, which..."

http://i.imgur.com/J8FDRDv.jpg - 1) "find a plenty" -> "find plenty" (NPC speech) 2) "keep the Slums from growing any bigger than it is" -> "...than they are" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/FFPPeUL.jpg - "the only wealth I had to offer for I am as you see a humble man" -> "the only wealth I had to offer, for I am, as you see, a humble man"

http://i.imgur.com/mbQBMax.jpg - "power crackled the air" -> "power crackled in the air" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/0B5bL06.jpg - "the Slums isn't... it. It has" -> "aren't... them. They have" (NPC speech). Treating "the Slums" like a singular seems intentional, but it doesn't sound natural at all.

http://i.imgur.com/rXwlvnW.jpg - " 'Kill him, he shouts" -> " 'Kill him!' he shouts"

http://i.imgur.com/0VjIt5q.jpg - "worth the trouble, if you were" -> strike comma

http://i.imgur.com/EO2uFAb.jpg - "I've got played" -> "I've been played" sounds more natural

http://i.imgur.com/OoR5z9Z.jpg - "Let's say, I believe you" -> can strike comma

http://i.imgur.com/Uq3EtdE.jpg - "He nearly shat himself, when we had a little chat" -> strike comma

http://i.imgur.com/0jfrtI0.jpg - "think that", "corpse. Suddenly" -> looks like two instances of double spaces

http://i.imgur.com/BrrTWb6.jpg - 1) "sent you... who had led", "were assigned", "discovered" -> if all active quest objectives are directly relevant to the present, it should be "has sent you... who has led", "have been assigned", and "have discovered" 2) "The word on the street is that" -> can strike the first "the" to sound more natural

http://i.imgur.com/e6VHgRL.jpg - as above: "had a falling out" -> "has had...", "reached the crater" -> "have reached...", "discovered" -> "have discovered"

http://i.imgur.com/xBrCaXz.jpg - 1) "ancients vats" -> "ancient vats" (NPC speech) 2) "there were always rumor" -> "...rumors" (NPC speech) 3) "have a proof" -> "have proof" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/IzNkWPK.jpg -> "Let's get it to it then" -> "...get to it..."

http://i.imgur.com/v03m5Dz.jpg - 1) "two walls blocked" -> "two walls block" 2) "Perhaps, too well," -> strike first comma

http://i.imgur.com/va2KDpF.jpg - 1) "distict. The" and "pot hanging" both look like there's a double space. 2) "hanging over fire" -> "... over [the/a] fire"

http://i.imgur.com/OPOVWoH.jpg - "Perhaps, now is not a good time" -> strike comma

http://i.imgur.com/ZqNnVKs.jpg - "thugh" -> "thug" 2) "If you're still here, when I'm done..." -> strike comma

http://i.imgur.com/0P4RyTY.jpg - "You came" -> "You've come" (NPC speech, very minor)

http://i.imgur.com/gfvgOZy.jpg - "now that you did" -> "now that you have"

http://i.imgur.com/CAu8KKa.jpg - "down. he" -> "down. He"

http://i.imgur.com/Lv7ZZaF.jpg - "The contents... was never... It" -> "...were never...They" (NPC speech)

http://i.imgur.com/HsQ6mJO.jpg -> "a map you acquired" -> "a map you've acquired" - really minor

Disagree here. "you acquired" sounds more natural in the context of the inventory. I suppose if you want to be really nitpicky you could say it should be "that you acquired"

http://i.imgur.com/0P4RyTY.jpg - "You came" -> "You've come" (NPC speech, very minor)

They're both perfectly acceptable.

Something of a bug in the TG questline

Spoiler

If you kill Levir to use the healing machine, and then betray Glabrio (which you have to do if you have low speech skills...seems like you should be able to tell the Aurelians to go fuck themselves if they don't agree to give you anything instead of then just being forced to betray Glabrio), the journal updates to "talk to lord Senna for your reward". Except he's not in his house, I assume he's at the palace, but the guards won't let me in since I never convinced them to let me in while Gaelius was still alive. Some reward, huh?

Well, the map is relevant to the present, since it's still driving a major quest. Both of those reports are "very minor" though.

 

[Declinator]

Poor Meru seems to lose his mind if you kill Faelan in the Boatmen quest. At least if you do so without having talked to him (Meru) first and instead go talk to him afterwards.

There is nobody there with him when I approach:

But when I talk to Meru he talks of his dearest helper as though he was still there:

[Unbeliever]

Something strange happening in my new assassin game. I gave Dellar infos how to attack raiders camp and slay them, but now I find Esbenus and his men on Arch location. And he speak with me like we are friends.

 

[Shadenuat]

Pls fix bug where if an enemy has nowhere to be pushed when liquid fire is thrown at him, he gets locked inside liquid fire tile without taking any damage through turns.

In Teron if you straight up murder all raiders in village where gold is hidden, pick "Fuck Aemolas", get teleported to limbo-road where I assume he is supposed to ambush you, but nothing happens, you can get through world map out there, quest doesn't close itself so only option to close quest is to give Aemolas gold in Teron.

Also can Critical Striking Antidas in Guard line be replaced with Dex+CS instead of separate checks? 14 points would mean 6CS 8DEX or 10DEX 4CS which is very high be equally viable.

Also can pls increase maximum AP allowed on lighest armors? (DR1-3) Since characters can actually increase natural DEX during game.

AI with spears and bows sometimes uses Push multiple times against opponents who can't be pushed (staying in front of other enemy or near wall).

AI sometimes throws nets even if character is already under the effect of one.

The choice to lead your troops to side with Meru in Imperial Guard in Paulus dialogue is broken.

Breathing apparatus found at radscorpions lair can't be charged since it happens in Abyss, should make it like PWA and glove so you could insert a tube inside?

You can kill packs of 3 radscorpions 1 scorpion after another if you start fights manually via button.

I think guys forgot to add Climbing Hook bonus when checking in Teron to climb small villa near palace - it's obviously an easier target than palace checks themselves but check is higher.

 

[Commissar Draco]

Spoiler

Bug in IG line when I Kill Antidas I am not promoted to centurion (well its OK since my Char is INT 4 and i got fancy chest to keep my stuf safe) but everybody calls me Centurion in HQ (Got reputation 22 by doing everything the Guard approved way)

OK got promoted to Legate after getting to IG fort... Wow from Private to Colonel in one leap.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

In The Arch if you kill the Oracle and his followers later when activating it they are still alive.

 

[Carrion]

I couldn't save the game after

Spoiler

talking to the loremaster at the Hellgate.

When I hit the quick save key, I got the message about the game being saved, but it didn't register anywhere and I could only load the previous saves. I was near the end of the game so it wasn't a huge deal, but potentially really annoying nonetheless. Didn't try making a manual save so I don't know if those still work.

 

[hell bovine]

Spoiler

Is it intended that even by the end of the game you still have the rank of Agent (low-ranking agent, actually) in the Commercium, despite being such so involved in the events that had just taken place? Sure, you only executed (or not) the plans of Linos/Strabos/Athanasius, but you were in the middle of it all and achieved it with your skills. It's only a minor complaint, but I'm curious to see if it's intended or not.

My merchant didn't advance either, so it's possible that's all you get.

My impression of the merchant run: a lot of fun in the beginning, but becomes quite boring in the end. With very high talking skills (and that's the point of a merchant, after all), there is absolutely no difficulty in missions in later cities, making the merchant guild plot advance too rapidly to build up any suspense or intrigue. Which is a pity, because I expected the world of cutthroat commerce would require more effort than just sweet-talking everyone into agreeing.

 

[Rivmusique]

Haven't looked through thread, may have already been said:

Spoiler

Not even sure this is a bug, just an odd quest to appear in the journal: The "Find out what happened to Esbenus' men [To be continued...]". I assume it's meant to be unsolvable (I went to hellgate, saw the corpses, went to esbenus at the arch, nothing) because of the [to be continued...], but why have it in the journal?

Short term memory issues?

 

[Darth Roxor]

I assumed it was another way of saying 'fuck off, you're not welcome here anymore'.

 

[Shadenuat]

I know it's a small thing but I wish there was a Reset option in chargen screen when you pick stats and skills that would put all stats at 4 and skills at 1.

 

[Cassidy]

One of the "easter egg" outcomes is glitched:

Spoiler

Sabotaged the ritual of transforming Meru's into Balzaar's host, Meru died, after climbing the stairs back to the desert the game shows a slide on how Meru went missing and a council replaced his rule in Ganezzar, and can't leave that area, because it tells "you should wait for the praetor before leaving, talk to some of the loremasters" but none of the loremasters(which technically should be dead given that there was an attack on them before) can be interacted with, so basically it was a game stopping bug.

In this game I already visited Al-Akia before as part of the Meru's quest but fled when Aurelian soldiers showed up because the character lacked enough skills to prevent a slaughter. So basically it's a scripting error that makes it impossible to get to the end of it if you decide to slay the eldritch god before it awakens and may only happen if you also flee the first time you visit Al-Akia instead of using diplomacy or fighting. Also nuked Maadoran in this game.
