KickStarter Knights of the Chalice 2 Thread - Augury of Chaos

[dunehunter]

Any plans to buff those weakest classes in future patches?

It comes with the base game.

What else come with the base game?

Hilarious voicelines for your dudes.

I just uploaded the newest version of the module 1.68 available to download here:

Hearkenwold

If you replace the module you have with this uncompressed Hearkenwold folder, you can continue with your existing saved game. The new changes will take effect.

There is now a club and a quarterstaff in the stash at the Castle
The blacksmith you can find now allows the forge and enchant functions

Thanks again for playing!

 

[Desiderius]

Does he sell Steel Ingots?

 

[Dorateen]

Does he sell Steel Ingots?

There is a steel ingot

Spoiler

In the Lower District of Khyn, in the barrel on south part of the map.
There are also ingots at Edinmoor Keep, which should be accessible in the full version of the module.

Can you not get Pierre to update that himself for you? Would benefit you both.

If it's on Nexus it doesn't show up when you search for the game. Not sure how people are supposed to find it.

I post regular updates in this thread. This is the link to the Nexus page:

https://www.nexusmods.com/knightsofthechalice2/mods/5

I had no idea Pierre is bundling the module with his releases, I will check with him to make sure it is upadated accordingly.

I completely forgot that I wanted to ask you about this. Is it actually bundled with the game now?

I'm not sure, I had never considered the possibility. I will email Pierre and ask him if that is the case, and if so, ask to include the most updated version.

 

[Desiderius]

I could just be forgetting downloading your mod in the first place, but then I again don’t know where I would have gotten it.

Enquire about his offer to share the revenue from people who would create new adventures. I know you didn't make it with the idea you'd make money, but for people going forward it might be worth addressing with him if it's true. Would be helpful for Pierre, too, I suspect.

 

[Desiderius]

So, uh,

Enjoying the game but feeling like sort of an idiot

Is there an obvious way to lift the curse on Witchlight that I'm missing? Also (maybe related) is there a nearby place the Troll King Trolls are hiding?

Cleared two big dungeons with temples that I thought would do it but no dice yet. Seems like all the people wanting to trade once the curse is lifted suggests I should have already.

 

[Desiderius]

Weird bug:

Pal died and I rezzed her at castle crystal, but now she doesn't show up on formation screen which hangs when I bring it up.

 

[Darth Roxor]

Lifting the curse on Witchlight comes fairly late and you need to have a cleric to do it.

You should encounter the Troll King's trolls eventually. I couldn't really do anything about them though, so I wonder how that quest can be resolved, if it even can

As Roxor mentioned above, the resolution to the village comes later and is part of a class specific mission.

There are two resolutions to the Troll King's missing fugatives.

Spoiler

One involves answering a riddle or you can fight them both when you encounter them. But this fight has to be triggered by doing something in the desert.

I have never seen that resurrection bug before, usually the dead character comes sliding back on screen after being healed. In the formation screen, trying moving the tokens around, I think sometimes they get jumbled together and another character token might be covering your paladin's token. Also, you could try switching to sprites (press alt-T) just to see if that clears any glitch, and then switch back.

 

[Desiderius]

you need to have a cleric

Cleric? Who plays a Cleric?

Must... have... domains!

Also damn Mass Protection from Alignment at lvl 2 on Pal is nuts. Turtle up and let the Mantis Rogue and summons run off and kill shit (HG Pal gets there to Grapple eventually).

Pro tip: discover that you can protect from Neutrality *before* fighting a gazzilion true neutral foes.

 

[Dorateen]

Cleric? Who plays a Cleric?

Must... have... domains!

Just a head's up, most of the Cleric related content is also available to Bishop characters, such as being able to call back the dead at the altar. So you shouldn't miss much by not having a Cleric.

 

[Desiderius]

I'll run Cleric in my next party.

Turning Domain surprisingly useful on Bishop.

 

[Desiderius]

Biggest problem with Cleric is the lack of Class Specific Feats other Pure Casters get.

If you (or Pierre) are looking to update weak classes Cleric is the place to start.

Knights of the Chalice 2 Version 1.70
Axes High! Version 1.70 of Knights of the Chalice 2 celebrates our worthy friends, the Mighty Dwarves! Join the party, everyone's invited! ^_^

• New Feats: Added two new feats for Dwarves: 'Giant Hunter' and 'Shieldbearer'.
• Graphics: Added modular Dwarf sprites, complete with a selection of beards, Dwarven armour, and Dwarven shields and weapons, including magical ones! Potentially, you could also use the Dwarf sprites for a Half-Giant character, by setting the character's height above 100%.
• User Interface: Reworked the Character-Creation Interface so that the first choice you make is the character's race, and selecting a race/subrace/gender will automatically set the character's physical appearance to something appropriate for that race. That way, you no longer have to spend time configuring the appearance of a character if you just want to create a new character without worrying about what he or she looks like.
• Enemy AI: Enemy archers won't use 'Rapid Shot' when they don't have enough arrows left to benefit from it.
• Bug Fix: Fixed a bug when changing the name of a weapon or armour in the inventory screen. The item would disappear after changing the name.
• Bug Fix: Psychic Healers of level 1 that have the feat Healing Focus will now be able to activate the power Cell Division. The game wasn't taking into account your feats when checking the caster level of a psionic power. Thank you so much Kyle for the bug report!
• Bug Fix: When launching a new module starting on a map containing no activable zones at all, there was still a source of crashes. This is now fixed. Thank you Kyle for the heads-up!
• Bug Fix: Fixed an issue with ambient sound sources associated with a hidden activable zone.
• Bug Fix: Fixed a source of crasheswhen an enemy character with multiple ranged attacks only has one arrow left in his ammunition slot and starts his round using a full attack to shoot. The game would crash after processing the first shooting attack, due to an empty ammunition slot. Thank you so much Steve for letting me know about this bug!
• Bug Fix: Fixed a bug concerning the energy damage reductions of characters when swapping items in the inventory screen. This was a potential source of crashes and memory corruption.
• Pregen Chars: The Dwarf pre-generated characters, Griswack and Belissaria, now have a Dwarf sprite, and the Drake pre-generated characters, Haphel and Cromwall, now have a wing sprite.
• Augury of Chaos: Changed the sprite of the Blackfire Shield from 'acid' to 'flaming'.
• Help Files: In the Help Entries for the conditions 'Enlarged' and 'Reduced', added a line indicating that the change in damage rolls does not apply to your Natural Weapons (claws, bite, etc). Also improved the formatting for the Help Entries of the Feats Oversized Two-Weapon Fighting and Overrun.

Please don't hesitate to email me at enquiries@heroicfantasygames.com if you find any bugs and annoyances, so that I can fix the game quickly. A saved game may be very helpful, too.

Thank You For Your Support, Loyal Mages and Warriors of the Realm!! Rejoice

 

[Dorateen]

This is a good update.

 

[Desiderius]

Is there a trick to using Grim's (Haste) Pipes in Hearkenworld?

Starts with 1 use then that use goes to zero before they can be used.

That sounds pretty grim. I will check it out and see what the issue is.

 

[Desiderius]

Mind the trap!

 

[Dorateen]

Mind the trap!

Killed almost everyone in the party, including the Bard I was going to test with, but Cleric survived so I was able to patch up the rest.

I fixed the Pipes, this version of the module 1.70 has them working correctly.

Hearkenwold

I tested and was able to equip a Bard character with the Pipes, and then Activate the Haste spell in battle.

Thanks for catching that!

 

[Desiderius]

Dorateen I lowered the forcefield in Morlo's Tower, but the one in the Owlbear cave is still there.

Is this WAI?
