Nope. No Brandon quest. Bugged maybe or maybe I messed somes quests up? Anyway, mines are under lava now so fuck it.
Btw am I fucked if I dont use T. weapons? Come to think of it, maybe I am. Cant play now so I cant check to remind myself, but those 'void' creatures can be killed only with T. weapons or am I thinking of something else?
You only need T. weapon once, to destroy a
blood crystal that instantly murders all void creatures after it is destroyed
. Can just use a butter knife with +damage on it if you wish.

T. is best boost for weapons because nothing in game has resistance against it, and it's easy to get. It's better than standard elemental boosts.

What are T. weapons?
Simply put, Tenebrium is radioactive fantasy type material that kils you slowly if you dont have the 'knowledge' in how to handle it.
Its purple and makes your characters purple. Also theres annoying blood animation to it with blood jumping in and out.
So far I found it a pain in the ass. Not the most innovative thing they came up with, imo.

That's because u forgot to equip the ring

There's special quest item that allows you to carry T. before you learn how to use it
Just don't sell T. items to merchants if you want them to continue to serve u

So Steam informs me I've almost 40 hours logged. I'm not even done with Cyseal (just did the Baron of Bones fight, hard difficulty.) Took over an hour and only had Jahan and my rogue still standing at the end. Can't remember when I last had a fight this epic in any game, even DKS.

You fuckers make me feel old and stupid seeing how far you're progressed :oops:

And now I'm wondering whether to restart as I made some idiotic errors building my Wayfarer. What to do what to do...

Little touches:
- If you sell item below its value - you may increase the buyer's opinion. Not sure why you want to do that but I found out about it while messing around with the next point.
- If you actually kill NPC like guards, they will drop most item you've traded into their inventory. However, that does not seem the case for gold. So if you want to prevent them from using that precious healing potion - trade a gold cup for it. THEN kill him, loot the gold cup back.
- Throwing any object (Drag & Drop) actually does damage to the NPC if you drop it directly at them, even in combat. Even a candle to the face does 1 dmg, and sets fire to the oily surface or detonate poisonous ones. High level Telekinesis can cheese some encounter if you smack the guy around with a very heavy object (tedious, but practical).

RPS depends on the attitude of the person you are talking to- it can be quite useful to make someone really like you to succeed some difficult RPS check (like, you know, getting into a treasure room).

High level telekinesis is great fun. Unfortunately you can't move mines with it though :argh:

Ah, then it can be used to gain high opinion to gain access... THEN kill them to get it all back. :smug:
Oh yeah, that 5 DEX starter bow is invaluable for Majora, gives her something to do with starting combat, like delivering special arrows that cannot miss.

What level were you guys when you killed
Loic
?

10 or 11, was one of the hardest fights, he resisted all my attempts to stun, knockdown, freeze, silence him and it took me ages to kill him due to his healing ability.
Felt pretty rewarding in the end...

This was also the first fight I have seen an enemy use a res scroll.
I actually saw an enemy use a rez school way back in early Cyseal, in the little hill next to the Lighthouse where we are ambushed by a couple of archers, a couple of warriors, and a couple of mage skeletons.

The first time I saw an enemy getting resurrected was during the Twins-by-fire-joined fight.
Luckily only the normal skelletons, not the twins...

12-13 maybe? When I got back from jolly lands of evil snowmen.
Was p. easy as I remember.

Only really hard fights I had were fire twins cause they were higher level than me and that season changing asshole that I spend like 5-6 hours on.

Hm. Ormagöden and I finished him at level 9 by accident, and I spent most of the fight naked b/c of the weakness debuff. This game really does not like MaA characters.
