Incline Age of Decadence - Tips, Tricks and Spoilers

[ZagorTeNej]

Not sure about 10, but with just 3 Lore you can learn location of Inferiae by just clicking in library of Saross, talk with elder, fight demon, get his heart, ghost hand, and enter Zamedi > well worth it if you don't side with Gaelius.

Can't get ghost hand with just 3 Lore (I think you need 7 Lore to open the portal but it also checks intelligence so it may vary) but yeah 3 Lore pays itself with location + getting out of the well which combined nets you 15 SPs (more with INT bonus) so it's a no-brainer even for an ultra-specialized combat build.

Can't find the information anywhere. Is Critical Strike in dialogue affected by anything other than the stat Critical Strike? Also is it enough to have a dagger in your belt?

Inventory works too.... and yes it checks the stats 6 is highest stat you need to kill/weaken bug in Al Akia.

Sometimes it's a combination of dexterity and critical strike (but only when it says so in the dialogue/check), one check in particular that requires 10 DEX/10 CS can be passed with 7 CS and 13 DEX (when wearing Power Armor in Horus mode).

I did, I bullshited the demon and then killed him manually. Portal was open after my talk with him & I got heart.

Yeah but that's not just 3 Lore, that's 3 Lore and 6/5 (or something like that) in both Persuasion and Streetwise (and an Intelligence check before that which I don't know how high is the minimum, I passed it with 8). My point was that even a combat focused retard with all 4s in social stats should get 3 Lore as he'll get those points back in Inferiae and gain access to Zamedi.

Or 1 check of Sneak.

Oh right need Lore after.

Somehow I always ended up with portal open for me on my playthroughs.
Well you get to use the hook, xp and heart from demon, 2 guard kills and 10 SP for leaving the village.

Is there a way for assassin to go in Al Akia? I made assassin build with high lore, crafting and alchemy, with which I do almost everything in game (Aemolas Village, Saross, Inferiae, Zamedi, Arch, Hangar airship, Mountain Monastery, Dead River bridge (after killed all scorpions for combat SP), Hellgate), but never had option to go to All Akia.

And how high is lore check in Maadoran medical facility for aparatus in there? I had 8 when I found that place and still didn't understand what was that.

Not that I now of, I had a similar build as an assassin and did everything, even brought the damn ship to Meru (he allowed me access to his secret library after that) and got Al Akia coordinates from the creature in the Arch (apparently that's not a bug, your guy just can't use them) and no dice. Given that Varro is basically Meru's chief enforcer now, IMO you should get the option to go to Al-Akia if you side with him.

Nah, 8 Lore was it last time I was there. Both for the machine and the out of date canister.

Same story. I gave the boat Meru and got the cordinates, but no way to use it. I help Meru to defend city and got permission to see his library, but still nothing.

Must to ask. Zagor Te Nej? Italian or ex SFRJ, by chance?

The latter, Serbian.

That's the fine country, people there have great taste for good RPGs.

Pozdrav, zemljače.

Svugdje nas ima xD

:D

 

[Jaedar]

So is there any way to have both Antidas and Meru wind up dead without blowing up Maadoran?

It seems to kill Antidas you have to betray your guild and/or join the IG, and IG questline in maadoran doesn't allow for killing Gaelius iirc.

 

[Eyestabber]

Hey,

I'm doing the thieves guild questline and I got the jar for Levir. But I noticed my max HP was reduced by 5. WTF? Is it intentional? Bug? How can I go back to my normal amount!?

 

[Eyestabber]

Nevermind. Turns out, being a greedy fuck is hazardous to your (max) health.

 

[Shadenuat]

Anyone knows about this issue?

Is Merchant not supposed to see the ritual or enter Al Akia even if he has shitton of rep with Crassus + Chosen One?
My friend says Meru 's eating from his Loremaster/Commercium's hands but doesn't take him to Al Akia and he was forbidden to enter it in a 1st trip too.

And was Astrolab-bug fixed, can you now find Al Akia with it + hand/eye/slaves? seems Vince confirmed it's in the working

 

[Commissar Draco]

Is giving Regalus Szhek.... Aureri for His Patriot Militia has any game effect? Aside from slightly pissing off the House Crassus and earning achievement.

I'm playing an assassin, working for Varros/Meru at the moment (betrayed everyone pretty much, sequentially). I showed Meru the map to the temple and he wants me to find it. I've tried the scorpion pit and the hellgate. I can't tank the scorpions or the constructs, and I can't convice the little dude in the Hellgate to help me. Is there an option to recruit a war party to go tackle one of these places? What do I do? I've been to the Crassus library, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with that information. This doesn't seem to be doable for my character.

Sorry, very impatient today. Also, I suck at searching forums, so sorry for that too.

 

[Irenaeus II]

You don't have to face the constructs, you can go through the lasers and accept permanent HP loss.

End game is near. You've been warned.

I've been to the Crassus library, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with that information.

I believe that lowers the lore/int check to travel to the temple from Zamedi. Without going to the Crassus library, it's absurdly high (like 10/9 or something).

 

[mushaden]

thanks. I thought the key was only to get out once you had been locked in. Didn't see the door to the long hallway/other elevator.

Great game

 

[Eyestabber]

During my Aurelian Praetor game I tried unlocking Ziggurat from Zamedi with 8 int and 10 Lore + Meru library and it still didn't work.

 

[warpig]

Is there a way to get the "Eye of Thor Agoth" amulet from Feng when you are a loremaster? (Feng didn't offer it to me like with my other characters). Is there another crystal like the one in the amulet somewhere in the game?
