(271KB) ============================================================================== Introduction [DS.02.01] ============================================================================== This introduction is taken from page 33 and 34 of the official manual. "You may wish to know the mysteries of this world: whom to trust, whom to battle. I'll give you a taste of the tale; the rest you must experience for yourself. Before your time, before the time of any ancestor you've ever known, Zaramoth the Unmaker ruled the earth. He drew his nearly godlike powers from the River of Souls, the underground flow that coursed the length of the planet from pole to pole. It was here that souls travelled after death, and it was their spiritual energy that transformed the river into a source of magical power. Zaramoth and his Dark Wizards ruled the planet with a certain firmness, which is to say, with an iron fist. There were many who were unhappy under Zaramoth's rule, but his power was unquestioned for centuries until the day when one tribe, led by Azunai the Defender, began to explore the power of the subterranean magic for themselves. Zaramoth had a problem with this, naturally. The inevitable result of this conflict came quickly - Zaramoth and Azunai were at war. Their forces ultimately clashed on the Plain of Tears and, at the front lines, Zaramoth and Azunai met. As their men raged around them, Zaramoth lifted his Sword and brought it down with a mighty roar against the Shield of Azunai. Then everything changed. Both Sword and Shield had destinies of their own - and the moment they collided, their time began. The earth opened. With a terrible scream, the souls of the soldiers tore from their chests and rushed into the fissure, leaving the lifeless bodies strewn on the field. In one horrific instant, the armies of Zaramoth and Azunai were utterly obliterated. The onrush of dying souls overloaded the River of Souls, stretching it beyond its limit. The river spilled over its underground banks into fractured lay lines, tipping the balance of the planet. And above the killing fields, the stars shifted. The Second Age had begun. A thousand years passed as a new world emerged from the ashes. Magic, which once travelled a single, controlled channel, now crisscrossed the planet in lay lines, putting its power in the hands of any brave enough (or foolish enough) to wield it. The kingdoms of Zaramoth and Azunai were part of the distant past; the world had become a far more chaotic, tribal, and wild place. People fought and loved and lived in their tribes, and the old ways were almost forgotten. Then one day, a prince of one of these tribes succumbed to a powerful illness. After several days of feverish delirium, Valdis, son of Utor, spoke of strange visions, which compelled him to travel into the mountains. Following that call, he spent three long weeks in solitude, and when he emerged, he wielded a precious object, something thought forever lost - the mighty Sword of Zaramoth. How had he found it? That is not mine to say. The whispering began - Had Zaramoth returned in the guise of Valdis? Might the great conflict between Zaramoth and Azunai return to this Age?" ============================================================================== Walkthrough [DS.03.01] ============================================================================== When you start a new game, you'll first have to select a difficulty. Once you did that, it's time to select the race of your character, appearance etc. Refer to the manual (it's also on the first CD) to learn what fits you the best. Dryads are the best archers and death magic; Elves can use any kind of magic; Half-Giant should go with melee weapons; Human is an all-around class with no real aim. Some general hints before we start, though; * Save often. It's not going to hurt you. * Be sure to use the powers of the characters in your party. * Once you or someone levelled up, be sure to set the specialities. Later in the guide you'll find a full list of the specialities. * When there are lot of weak enemies around, let your party fight for them self by pressing G (Rampage Mode). Stronger enemies should be taking together by pressing F (Mirror Mode). * Pause the game with space when things get crowded. This give you the time to use potions, select powers etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Act 1 [DS.03.02] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 1: The Siege of Geilyn Beach [DS.03.03] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This part of the game isn't hard at all, and doesn't even require a walkthrough. Just follow the instructions you get on your screen. The path is very linear, and there is nothing you can do wrong. Eventually, you'll go through a cave, and then end up at a temple, where the computer takes over. You fight a bit, and when you are about to take the mighty treasure, you get kicked in your ass. Hard. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 2: Prisoner of War [DS.03.04] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Armorer's Apprentice (Finished in Chapter 4) * Lumilla's Salve (Finished) * Secrets of Xeria's Temple (Finished in Chapter 10) You wake up in a cell. The Dryads have taken you as prisoner. Talk to the people in the cells next to you, and then talk to the guard. Amren will show up, and let you go. However, you're still a prisoner. You have to prove yourself worthy by doing a small quest. First, head to the blacksmith and talk to her. You'll get yourself the stones you need. Note you can also talk to Telinu to get a quest. You won't be able to finish it until you finished chapter 3, though. Talk to Lumilla here, in the same room to get another quest. She wants four nettle clusters you can find in the jungle. You can either get them in the jungle, or you can buy them from the merchant outside the building. They are quite expensive at this point though. Do as you please. Before you leave town, be sure to get yourself a (free) party member. If you have a person with melee attacks, get yourself the archer. If you use ranged attacks yourself, I suggest to take the half-giant. For now you can only pick one member (until you have 500 gold), but you can always kick them out of your party. They'll both be at level 3 when they join you. Head to the inn, and find the man at the bar. Talk to him to get a quest you can't finish until much, much later. Leave town the only way possible. Once you reached the ground, a guard will escort you to the nearby post. Talk to people on your way. Once you reached the post, you'll see Morden have taken it over. Kill them, and rescue the prisoner. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 3: The Morden Towers [DS.03.05] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Hak'u (Finished in Chapter 5) So, it's time to wreck some havoc. You can return back to town if you need to get new gear and that kind of stuff. If not, just follow the arrow on your compass. You'll get to the first tower. Kill the enemies, and free the prisoner. You need to low the tower up. Grab a stick from the cage, and hold it in the fire. Now set the tower on fire, and back off a bit. You'll find a teleporter if you keep going. Near the teleporter, you'll also find two chants. Now simply follow the path again and keep blowing up those towers. Not really needed for me to write down this in details. You'll run into a woman who gets attacked by a Hak'u. Talk to her for the Hak'u quest. Between the third and four tower, you'll be able to fight the hidden Hak'u cave. It's a bit easy of the fourth tower. Once you found it, remember where it was, but don't enter yet. We'll come back here later. Once you blew up the fourth tower, walk a bit further to find a teleporter. Go back to town, and go talk to Celia. She'll let you go. Now you can visit all the parts of Eirulan. To finish this chapter, head to the great hall, and talk to Taar. You have the plague, and you need to cure it. There is a rumor that there is a fountain the Elven Shrine that might be able to cure you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 4: The Plague [DS.03.06] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Armorer's Apprentice (Finished) * Lelani's Sorrow (Finished in Act 3) * Dire Wolf (Finished in Chapter 5) * Secrets of the Elven Shrine (Finished) * The Kithraya Hive (Finished in Chapter 6) Before we head out to the Elven Shrine, we can get some additional quests. Since the ring is removed, we are no longer limited in visiting the town of Eirulan. First, head towards platform with the pets. Don't enter yet, but find the house where Lelani lives. Talk to her to get a quest. Her daughter was recently murdered, and she wants to fulfil the wish of her child, even though she'll never see it. Pick up the doll. Remember how Telinu wanted you to check on a book? Inside the great hall are two books. Pick them up, and read them. She needs 5 squares of leather, 3 pots of boiling wax, 12 stoneshrooms and 2 basketfuls of leaves. She'll craft some armor for you. Note that in the great hall you can also listen to an old woman telling you stories. This is just for fun. Now head inside the place of the pets, and talk to Neda. Keep asking until she begins to talk about the Dire Wolf. You'll get a quest, and you'll be able to get a Dire Wolf as pet. Head up the stairs outside the pet store, and talk to Leanne. You'll need to go to the Elven Shrine anyway, so the quest can fit right in. Head towards the falls. Go down with the elevator and walk around to the next elevator. Go up, and find a house where Tamari lives. She's afraid of spiders because she saw a pretty big one. We can't kill it yet, but at least we have the quest. Pull the lever to lower the bridge, so it's not a pain in the ass to reach the house later, just in case. Talk to Fenella in this area too. You can trade the doll for ale. In the great hall is the mage you needed to talk to for the Dire Wolf quest. Pay him a visit. He'll give you the direction of where to meet him. We certainly will... later. If you wish to get a third party member, talk to the woman that runs the inn. It'll cost you 500 gold, but it's worth it. Now go to the teleporter, and teleport yourself to the western part of the jungle, near the last tower you destroyed. Follow the arrow on your compass to get to the shrine. You'll meet some monsters on your way, but nothing too serious. Enter the shrine. Inside, you'll find a door with a target on it. Let someone shoot an arrow into the door, and it'll open. Inside is a chest. Take the other door. You'll find an elevator down. Remember the side-quest with the secret elven room? Push the brick on the wall. Grab the stuff and then pick up a green block. Put it in the slot. Pull the lever to go down. Push the brick here, pick up a yellow block, and put it in the slot. Now pick up a black block, and use the level to go down. Push the brick here too, and put the black block in the slot. And finally pick up a purple block and put it in the slot near the chest. Open the chest too, while you're at it. Now, the final room has three slots. Just enter the block of the same color in a slot, easy as that. Pull the lever to find the secret room. You'll find 3 chants here, the quest item and some other stuff you may like. Now return to the elevator (stay down). Follow the path. You'll find a room that needs magic to be opened. If you can't open it, you can come back a bit later. There is a chest inside. You'll end up in a room with quite some enemies. You'll need to defeat the special ones in order to gain access to the next room. In the next room is the fountain you need, so use it to fill the vial. Don't bother walking back, there is a teleporter to be found in a room nearby. Be sure to get the chant in the room with the fountain too. Get back to town, and complete the Secrets of the Elven Shrine quest first. Now return to the great hall and talk to Taar. If you wish her to join you, buy yourself another slot. This will cost you 1500 gold. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 5: The Dryad Exile Colony [DS.03.07] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Hak'u (Finished) * The Hak'u, Part II (Finished in Chapter 6) * Taar's Investigation (Finished) * Dire Wolf (Finished) * Felwyr the Blacksmith (Finished in Act 1, Chapter 1) The best thing is to select some spells you want Taar to use. She has some great spells that boost your stats, so I recommend setting those to autocast. She also has other great stuff, but it's up to you to decide what she should use. Also set her specialities and equip her with the stuff she has herself. Before we go for great adventures, we should solve a quest we already have for a while. Use the teleporter, and go to the western part of the jungle. Walk east and go to the hidden Hak'u cave. Kill everything, and pick up whatever you can. When you get near the cage, the woman will go free, and it's over. Go back to the teleporter, and go to the great hall. Walk to Hesla, and talk to her to finish the quest. You'll get a new quest right away though. The new quest is in the same direction as your main quest, so that's a good thing. Select Taar, and talk to Arianne near the great hall. She'll give you a new quest. You need to investigate about a big Hak'u beast. Teleport yourself northern teleporter in the jungle. From there follow the path north until you find a Hak'u camp. You'll find the Hak'u Ceremonial Blade here. Now head to the south gate of town (from the pet shop). Keep walking south, and you'll find a cave. Equip the Hak'u Ceremonial Blade, and use it to slay the beast. Go back to Arianne, and she'll reward you. Now head back to the south gate again, and follow the actual path. You'll find a small Hak'u camp. You can enter ruins here. If you move the chalice, you'll reveal a secret room with an enemy and some stuff. A bit east from the ruins is a small cave. The enemies have good stuff on them. Continue down the path. You'll be able to find two more small caves. The one that's north of the ruins lead to the mage for the Dire Wolf quest. Talk to him, and he'll open the portal. Simply kill all the Nawl Beasts and the wolf will come true. When you have time, return to the pet shop. From that moment on, you'll be able to buy a Dire Wolf. Head back to the ruins, and continue down the path ahead of you. Once you passed the bridge, leave the mean path, and enter the cave ahead of you. Inside you'll find a blacksmith who needs your help. Accept the quest. Head down into the cellar and find his gear. You can't get lost. Also be on the look out for secret rooms (blue dots on your compass will tell you where the buttons and statues are). Once you've got the stuff he needs, head back to him. This time, the creatures stole him hammer. Go after it. After you found it, give it back to him and he'll send your weapon to Aman'lu. Note; be sure you save your game for the next part and set your party mode to mirror. Otherwise the game may crash on you. Follow the path again. You'll end up at the colony, but everyone turned into monsters. Save the Azunite Scholar, and talk to him. He'll tell you a story. Valdis has a sword, and if he finds a shield, which is shattered, he'll be able to bring havoc upon the world and change it to his wishes. Can you believe you helped him in the beginning of the game? ;p He'll open a path for you, and tell you where to go. Pick up the items he gives you too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 6: Leaving Geilyn Isle [DS.03.08] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Hak'u, Part II (Finished) * The Kithraya Hive (Finished) Remember the Hak'u quest? Don't take the path the scholar opened, but the other one. Enter it, and talk to Hrawn. Accept his quest to kill the Hak'u leader. You can find the leader by heading to the teleporter in the western jungle, and going straight west. The compass indicates where he is. Once you killed him, report back. Now head back, and take the path that was opened for you. Follow it, and you'll find another teleporter. You probably want to go back to town right now to get rid of a lot of goodies and make money. Continue down the path, and you'll find a cave. Pass through it, and you'll find Vix. He tells you his story. You can either take him in the party, or just tell him to get lost. You can also get two chants and a book here. Enter the caves, and simply find the exit. You'll find an elevator, but it's broken, so that'll have to wait till later. Outside you'll find a teleporter. Follow the path to enter the lower level of the cave. You'll find one of Tyr's man, but he'll transform into a zombie. A bit later, you can go either left or right. Go right to find the Kithraya Hive Queen you need to kill for Tamari. This area is hard, so beware. Once you killed the Queen, head back and follow the other path. You'll be outside again. Find the shard, and destroy it. This may just be the cause of the plague. Walk a bit further to find the scholar. Talk to him. He'll explain how the shard was indeed used to spread the plague. The plague isn't a disease though; those spirits you saw take over the bodies of men and beasts to fight again. Once they are killed, they'll find their peace. Take the portal to leave this island. Then talk to Captain Suzor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 7: Secret of the Azunite Desert [DS.03.09] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Lelani's Sorrow (Continued) * A Family's Heirloom (Finished) Talk to Soldier Balamar to trade the Elven Ale with Skatch Cat ribs. Remember who wanted meat? Indeed, someone in the inn. Take the teleporter home (the one outside the camp, mind you) and go to the inn. Trade the Skatch Cat ribs with Soldier Jordan for a statue of Xeria. While you're here anyway, head to the falls and show the head of the spider to Tamari. She'll reward you. Head back to the desert, and follow the arrow. You'll find a big monster, but he's not hostile (yet). Talk to him, and he'll try to kill you. Once you killed him, you'll get the Stela of Blindness. Only three left. Head straight west from there, and kill the monsters to find the Stela of Life. Head back to were you found the first Stela, and open the other gate. Head that way. Once you find a tower, enter it and take the elevator down. Talk to Master Thestrin to get a quest. Let's do this quest first. Head back to down, and go southeast to find the crypt. Inside, don't open any door. There are level 28 monsters here, and it can easily be your death. Talk to the statue, and give the answer. If you give the wrong answer, you'll be attacked. I actually recommend to answer wrong until no monsters will attack you anymore. Why? Because they give a great deal of strong weapons and armor. Anyway, the correct answer is the order 3412. This will open the door, but inside are some level 28 and one level 30 enemies. What to do? Grab the quest item, try to open the chests (they contain good stuff, trust me) and make sure no one dies. Then return to Master Thestrin to get your reward - a chant. Give him his thing back, and he'll teach you a real chant. The other one isn't very wise to use. Now continue your main quest. Follow the path and kill the monsters to get the Stela of Death. One final one to go. Head north and a bit east to find the Stella of Sight. Now all you need to do is put them into the Lost Vault of the Azunites. You can first enter the cave for some fun, but the main goal is to walk east a bit, and enter the cave north. From there, you can reach the Lost Vault by going down some elevators. Good treasures here too, but watch out for the Mimics; they look like treasures, but are able to use magic against you and hurt quite a bit. However, by opening all treasures new rooms (where enemies come from) will be opened. One of them contains a chant. Whatever you do, head down and place the Stelas. Open the door and grab the chant in the main room. Then pick up the Silver Mirror and the map. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 8: The Lost Azunite Artifact [DS.03.10] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the door that just opened, and go up. Then, walk to the north until you find a teleporter. Perhaps it's time to sell some stuff? ;p When you're done, follow the path. It'll lead to a cave, and eventually to a room with lots of statues. Place the mirror you found in the statue that has no mirror. Then just solve the easy puzzle; the light must shine into the stone that's in the pillar next to you. Once this is done, the floor will lift up. Head down, and pick up the artifact. Then talk to the Elven Spirit. You have the blood of the Azunite in you, and are one of them. So much for that. The elf will leave a chest. Open it for goodies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 9: Windstone Fortress [DS.03.11] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * The Missing Squadron (Finished) * The Imprisoned Half-Giant (Finished) Go up, and talk to the Elven Spirit again. After a story of history, he'll open a path (or you can tell him to cut it, and open it right away). Head there. Outside is a teleporter. There is only one way to go, and that's inside the cave. In here, one path goes up a staircase. It leads to a shrine to chant. It's not really worth it, but the extra kills won't hurt you. In the Room with the Skaths you'll be able to turn two valves in order to open a secret room. Inside are enemies and goodies. Now head back to the other exit. For a brief second you'll be outside, but soon enough you'll be in the cave again. You can walk back to the other room on a higher level to access a chest. Now continue down your little journey. You'll find a teleporter, and a bit further the fortress. However, it's pretty heavily guarded. Don't you love it when that happens? Once you reached the fortress, someone will block the way to the bridge. What a warm welcome. Head to the end of the entrance, then head east. In the small hall, you'll find a room where Private Banos stands. Talk to him for a quest. We need to save some people. Continue down the hall, and open the rooms for goodies. Watch out for Mimics though. You'll find a book about half-giants on the floor. In that same hall, enter the door to find a chant. Go back, and look at the small statue in the hall. Active it to open a secret room. Leave the hall. You can go either to the west wing, or continue the main quest. First head to the west wing. You'll find a survivor here, a book about Xeria and a chant. Now head the other way, up to the bridge. You'll find a teleporter, and both Squadron Leader Taarth and Captain Dathry. But first, head to the west, into the barracks and find the last survivor. In the same room you'll find a chant. Head back, and talk to Squadron Leader Taarth. He'll give you a key and some other stuff. Now talk to the half-giant in the hole to start yet another quest. Talk to Soldier Orayne about this matter. Anyway, talk to Captain Dathry. You'll get one of the keys to the vault. Now head down to the east, and open the vault. Continue to the next room. Pick up a yellow block here, and put it down the socket. In the next room, find yourself two green blocks, and put them down the socket. In the room after that, kill the enemies to get a key, then put two red blocks down the socket. Use the key to open the vault. Inside, kill the enemies, grab the stuff and then combine the bowl with the blue flames. Time to head back to Captain Dathry. Talk to him, and they'll blow the barricade up. After that, talk to him again, and he'll let Sartan free. You can let Sartan join your party, if you want to. Anyway, continue over the bridge, into the temple. You may want to help the soldiers slay the demons though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 10: The Temple of Xeria [DS.03.12] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Secrets of Xeria's Temple (Finished) Inside, kill every enemy you'll find. Be sure you open every door as well, just to be sure. Once they are all killed, the magical field will vanish. Don't do anything with the artifact yet, though. Simply walk to the room before the one with the statue, and find the green balls. Put it in the socket. This will open a new room, with more balls, more sockets etc. I explained this already, and I'm sure you'll manage. In the final room you'll find a lot of stuff, and the quest item. Go back to the inn one way or another, and talk to the man at the bar. He'll give you some stuff. Now head back to the statue and use the artifact on it. You can now enter the next area. There are a lot of secret rooms here. Also find the book. Just find the shard by taking the obvious route. You may find the earth chamber when looking for secret rooms. You can't do anything there for now. You'll find the boss of Act 1; a giant multi-headed snake. Fun stuff. You need to kill each head, but it's not that hard. Once it's killed, destroy the shard and enter the portal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Act 2 [DS.03.13] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 1: The Town of Aman'Lu [DS.03.14] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Tywlis' Broken Staff (Can be finished, no further info) * A Dark Ohm (Finished in Chapter 5) * Viperclaw (Can be finished, no further info) * Arinth's Legendary Staff (Finished later) * Mythrilhorn (Finished later) * A Family Heirloom, Part II (Finished in Chapter 5) * Lothar's Innocence (Lothar needed, finished in Chapter 4) * Deru's Treasure Hunt (Deru needed, finished later) * Mark of the Assassin (Finished later) After the cinematic and the small talk, head inside the magic shop. Talk to the woman to get a quest - it'll allow you to talk to the spirits later on. On the top floor of the shop, you can find yourself two books. Head towards the south gate (the bridge is broken). There is a small house to the east. Enter it, and pick up the stone. This will start another quest. After this, go to the pet shop and get another quest for another new pet. After that, head south from there, and be sure you have Daru in your party. Talk to the prospector for another quest. Head back to the southern jungle of Act 1. From there, walk to the ruins next to you. This is where you'll find the hidden treasure. Let Daru open it to find some gold, and a riddle. That's it for now. Return back to the town of Aman'Lu. Go northeast of the portal, and talk to Eolanda. Accept the quest for the quest itself and a book. Inside her house is another book. Around the house is Eumenidie. Talk to her for another quest that requires you to gather ingredients. You can find them in the forest. You can buy a griffon feather at the local magic shop. The house near her has the book "Dryads and their Customs". From there, head to the northwest, and talk to Tywlis. She has another quest for you. You can also find a book in her house. To help her, you need a Rainbow Trinket. I got lucky and found it in town after a few tries at the merchant. In the house behind the armor and weapon sellers is another book to be found. If you did the quest for the blacksmith in Act 1, talk to his brother to get your weapon. Head to the inn. With Lothar in your party, talk to Roland. You'll get yet another quest. Then talk to Athelas for another quest (that is, if you did the Family Heirloom quest). You can get Amren to join your party, if that's what you wish. I suggest you to wait. I'll get back to him once we can finish his special quest later on. Upstairs is another book. Now head to Celeb'Hel (the main quest, remember? ;p). Inside is another book. After you got it, talk to him. You'll finish the quest, get a new one, get a teleport stone and a map. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 2: Finala and the Broken Bridge [DS.03.15] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Not a hard part. Leave the town by heading north, and just stay on the path. You'll cross a bridge once. You'll find Finala after a short while. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 3: The Elen'Lu Isles [DS.03.16] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A bit further north is a teleporter. Just keep going north. Why did you need this walkthrough again? Just follow the path. When you get to a shrine for chants, you can take a small shortcut by going north. Then follow the path again to the next teleporter. Head through the small temple, and then you'll find the isles. The FMV that'll start spoils the whole "puzzle". You need to kill the enemies to find small prisms. Use the magical bridges to access other isles. Put the small prisms inside the devices you find in the north, east, south and west, and make sure they point to the main structure. Once this is done, find the bridge that leads to that main structure, and kill the enemies to find the large prism. Put that on top of the structure. The flames will go away, but you'll be ambushed by enemies. Kill them, and then head back to town with either a spell or by the teleporter. Head to the south and talk to Finala. She'll offer you to join your party. It's up to you. If you follow my plan, wait a bit longer, and we can get her in the party for the rest of the game. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 4: The Royal Caravan [DS.03.17] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * A Servant's Haunt (Finished in Chapter 5) * Lothar's Innocence (Lothar needed, finished) * Finala's Contempt (Finished later) * A Servant's Haunt (Continued) Leave town and head south. You'll see a house in the west. There is a book here called Downfall of the Manu Ostar. Grab it. Then head to the house in the east for a quest. Head further south. Once you find two signs, you'll notice another path that leads up a staircase. Head there. Inside the house are two chants; Chant of Dexterity and Chant of Intelligence. Head back and go south. You'll find a tree with a door. Enter it and push the brick for a little treasure. Then follow the path again. You'll find a teleporter. Head down south again, but once you're able to go to the west, do so. You'll end up in a cave crawling with enemies. You only need to do this when you're doing the quest "Lothar's Innocence". Find Magrus and talk to him. He'll flee, but he'll drop the key to his house. Let's go find the house. Head back to the teleporter, follow the path back to where you came from. Once you see the health shrine, walk north a bit more, and then head east to find the house. Talk to Magrus, but he'll fight for it. Attack him, and once you damaged him enough, he'll surrender. Head to the inn, and talk to Roland to finish the quest. Depending on your situation, you might want to kick Lothar out of your party now, and get Finala. His quest is done, after all. At least, that's what I did ;p We'll get him back in a sec. Finala can active a new quest. You need to head to the Kithraya Valley, and head inside the upper cave. There is a broken elevator here that Finala can fix. Go down, and let her open the big chest. It seems the Morden have more towers on the island, and we need to destroy them. First head to the southern jungle teleporter. From there, walk away from the big ruins (yes, away). You'll find an area with an entrance to some small ruins. Finala will find a secret door there. Follow it to find the first tower. Blow it up. After that, head to the northern jungle teleporter, and go north. Remember the wall that blocked a path? Finala will open it. Here you'll find tower two, three and four. After that, you need to head to yet another Morden base. However, we can't do that right now. Simply head back to the teleporter in the forest we last found, and continue the main journey from there. After a while, you'll notice you can take an elevator down at some structure in the middle of a field. Do so. Once you are down, the ghost wants a word with you. We can't talk to it yet though. Take the only door that you can open. Inside you'll find the Chant of Fighter Health. In the next room you'll find the Chant of Ranger Health and the Chant of Mage Health. In this room, also push a brick to open a hidden room. Now head back. We can't do a thing before we know the Chant of Dead. Continue down the path, and you'll notice the caravan is shattered into quite some pieces. Time to pay back the Vai'Kesh. Note the teleporter and how the guy has a quest. You can't do this yet, since you need Eva for this. I'll get back to this later. Continue down the path. After a while, you'll see you can leave the main path and go a bit higher. Do this, and you'll find a tree with an elevator inside (right...). Open the secret room and kill the big fat nasty enemy. You'll find a mysterious chant here. Now go back to the path and follow it. You'll find the Vai'Kesh, but you can't enter the gate. Just continue to find the sanctuary. Talk to the guard who's standing next to the door. He'll let you in. Inside, talk with the prophet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 5: The Vai'Kesh and the Aegis of Death [DS.03.18] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * A Servant's Haunt (Finished) * A Servant's Haunt, Part II (Finished) * A Dark Ohm (Finished) * Deru's Treasure Hunt (Continued) Apparently they don't want you to take the aegis. Then we'll get it by force. Kill all the enemies to release the spell on the door. On the upper floor is a brick you can push to gain access to the Chant of Fighter Power. In this room you can push another brick to open another secret room. Inside is a Mimic though, so I suggest to just leave it be. Enter the door that was protected before. Now simple follow the path. You'll end up outside. From there, head south to find a teleporter and a cave. Enter the cave. Once you are outside again (on the other side, that is), you'll find another teleporter. Why they put it there is beyond me. You just passed one. Before you head out and kill the damn elf, first head south. Enter the small cave here. The demon will be unleashed. Kill it, and talk to Athelas for your reward. Now head back, and walk towards the elf. He'll flee again. Kill his servants and enter the cave ahead of you. Kill the enemies here, and open the door. You'll observe the ritual, so you can learn the Chant of Dead. Finally. Kill the enemies here for some experience. You'll find the Chant of Fortification here. Head back to town and finish the quest for the Chant of Dead to finally get it. Remember the ghost that wanted to talk with you? Head to the southern Vai'Lutra forest to get there. Use the Chant of Dead on the shrine, and then head to the structure in the middle of the field. Go down, and talk with the spirit. After a short while, you need to follow him into the next room. Kill the enemies, and pick up the portrait of the Lady of the Estate. Return to the ghost and talk to it. He'll move to the next room, where you'll find a lock of hair. Return it to the ghost for another story. He'll head to the next room. Kill the enemies, pick up the love letter, and return it to the ghost once again. He'll send you to a secret room where you'll find some jewels. back to Amen'Lu, and talk with Eldoriath to finish the quest. However, when you talk to the spirit again, he needs some more help. Accept this for another quest. Head back to Eiluran, and head to the inn. Talk with Lady Levreth here. She admits she murdered him, but tells her someone else convinced her to do it. He is in Amen'Lu. Head back to Amen'Lu and find Guardian Commander Withril (north of the teleporter). Talk to him, and then kill him. The elder will reward you, and the spirit can now finally rest. Head back to the teleporter in the Vai'Kesh forest. Cross the bridge (the one next to the cave where you learned the Chant of Dead). Follow the path again. Once you crossed the second bridge, head to the west, and enter the cave. I found an Onyx Fragment there, which you may or may not need. Head back to the path, and follow it. After a while, you'll end up in the Arinth's Ravine, and you'll find a teleporter. Continue until you walked over a bridges. There is an ice cave when you walk away from the path around here. Kill the enemies inside, and you'll find a chest. Let Deru open it for yet another riddle. When you follow the path again, you'll eventually find the prophet again. But once again, he'll flee away. You'll find a teleporter here. Now simply follow him again until you found him. This time it's finally time to kick his tiny little ass. Do so, and also make sure you kill his "friends". Now we only need to find the Aegis. The cave ahead of you have a shrine to chant and a lot of treasures. The other cave contains more treasures, a ghostly spirit (I'll get back to this later) and the Aegis. However, it's guarded by a boss called Knotted Shamble. Defeat the stupid tree. Burn it down. BUUURN! *Cough* It's a harder fight than you'd expect. Before you can hit him, you first need to cut through his armor. Fire is the best way. After the armor is gone, ignore him for a while, and go after his hatchlings and leaf generators. Once those are destroyed, finish the tree off. When the fight is over, grab up the treasures and pick up the Aegis. Talk to the Azunite scholar. You need to save the princess (they stole it from Mario). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 6: Princess Evangeline [DS.03.19] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Rahvan's Curse (Finished) Walk ahead and enter the portal. There is a crypt nearby. Enter it to find the Chant of Self-Awareness in a secret room. Find the local teleporter after that. Head back the east, and you'll find a frozen crypt. It's good for experience and you'll find a Quest Item (which has no use yet) inside; Champion's Death Mask. Also look around for secret rooms. Feeling adventurous? (I know you are) Head further east to find another frozen crypt. Inside is another one of those masks. And if that's not enough, you'll also be able to find more secret rooms. Lucky you. Now head back to the teleporter. We've had enough fun. Well not really. Next to the teleporter is another crypt, with another mask. Go grab it tiger. Simply continue down the road, until you find another crypt on your left. Enter it for another mask. Don't forget to check the secret rooms. Now follow the path to the next teleporter. Talk with Champion Rahvan here. Since you have the masks, you can complete this part of the quest right away, and get another one - kill the man who killed him. Now enter the catacombs, and just follow the path around. There isn't really anything else to tell you. Don't be afraid to take a detour in order to find treasures and whatnot. Find the teleporter in the south. Head back to the north a bit, and then head west. You'll end up outside. Find the tower in the north, and go up. You'll find some treasures here, and two chants; the Chant of Ranged Awareness and the Chant of Melee Awareness. Then head back to the teleporter, and go south again. There is a puzzle here. Good thing you wrote down the combination for it =D Wait, you didn't? *Sigh* The life of a walkthrough writer can be hard sometimes. Giving solutions and such. Anyway, the combination was written on the ground at the beginning of the catacombs. It's dead tree, closed eye, open eye, loving tree. Once the elevator is up, go down. So, all we need to do now, is save the princess. Once you can go either south or west, head south first. You'll find the dead symbol. Say the chant, and the door will open. Kill the enemies inside, and grab all the extra treasures. You'll also find the Chant of Purity. Now bring the soulstone back to the spirit who was guarding the tomb. Another good job done. Now head back to the serious business, and follow the path. Once you found her, it's time to fight one Evil Wizard of Valdis. He'll summon big skeletons to aid him. Destroy those first. When he summons a shield around him, you need to destroy the shield, before you'll be able to hurt him. It's a long fight, but not hard. Talk with Eva after the right. She wants to join your party. Let's not do that for now, since we have quests to attend. I'll come back to her later. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 7: The Siege of Snowbrook Haven [DS.03.20] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Arinth's Legendary Staff (Finished) * Arinth the Mad (Finished) * Lelani's Sorrow (Continued) * Evangeline's Folly (Finished) Simply leave the room, go up the elevator and go through the many halls. You'll end up outside. Follow the path to find a teleporter. Continue from there. You'll find a tower ahead of you, with the Chant of Magic Awareness and a chest. Find the shrine to chant. Use the Chant of Dead, and head back to the tower. Around there, look for a stairway that heads down. There is an elevator here. Talk with the guardian down there, and open the chest to find a part of the staff for Arinth. We'll go get the other two pieces in a second, trust me. Now head back on the main path. When you're able to go south, do so. The bridge to the west is destroyed and has no use. When you keep going south, you'll find a teleporter. There are more ways that lead to Rome, and there are more ways that lead to the next teleporter. You can either wander through the snow, or you can walk through the caves; the all link to the outside world. Do as you like, and cross the bridge to the next teleporter. Be aware that the caves obviously have more treasures. From the teleporter you should follow the path. A movie will trigger after a pretty long walk. That means you need to leave the main path, and go there. You'll find a teleporter. Before we continue with the main quest, let's do the staff-quest I mentioned a bit earlier. The first part is in the Cliffs of the Azunai. Head to the teleporter of the western cliffs, and head east. Enter the cave. From there, simply walk south until you find a staircase. Head up there, and find the shrine to chant. Then walk back and go down with the elevator. The button to active it, can be found on the steps next to the elevator. When you're down, talk with the spirit, and open the chest. Only one part left. Head back to Amen'Lu, take the teleporter to the Aman'lu Hills and walk north from there. When you find a shrine to chant, use the Chant of Dead. Keep going north, until you find a bridge. Head west from there, until you find a cave. Don't enter it, but turn around and head east. You'll be able to take a small path down. You'll find an elevator there (yes, go down with it). When you have the final piece of the staff, return to Eolande in Amen'Lu. You'll finish the quest and get the staff. We can start a new quest right away. Let someone equip the staff (Finala comes in mind), and head to the teleporter in the Lost Azunite Valley. Head straight east, and take the elevator down (the button is hidden). Inside, keep pressing buttons until you found the Elven Prison. Free Arinth. Lit the lamp here to open a room where you'll find a bucket (yes, a bucket - you need it for the secret area in the game). Teleport to the Emen'Lu Isles. You'll find Arinth in the temple. Kill him to finish the quest. Put the staff away, and get Eva in your party. She's waiting at the inn of Amen'Lu. Get her some gear, and then take her to the broken caravan (Southern Vai'Lutra Forest). Let her talk with Mylindril. Head to the Western End of Arinth's Ravine, and walk west from there. Enter a cave when you can (just before a bridge). Talk with the elf at the door, and he'll let you in. Of course, we'll do it the hard way, so we'll have to fight our way through. Find the enemy that holds the key, and open the cell. Jessic can't be found here, so we need to search for him. Leave the cave, and head east. Check your mini-map to find the next cave (just east, and when possible north). Free the soldier inside. Of course, it's not Jessic, but what did you expect? Head to the eastern teleporter of the ravine. Walk back to the west, and when you can head north. Then follow the path to find another stronghold. This is where you'll find Jessic. And now that we are finally done with all those silly quests, let's return to the main quest. Return to the last teleporter. Walk further towards the castle, and you'll enter through the servant's entrance. Now follow the halls. Enter the side-rooms for extra goodies. Once you went up some stairs, you'll find a room with a sprit (we'll talk with all spirits in one go in Act 3, but if you want you can talk to it right now). In the same room is a Mysterious Chant. When you crossed the bridge, you'll find the book Kings and Queens of the Northern Reaches. Head to the throne room, and get the key from underneath the throne. Kill the enemies, and enter the door in the east. Follow the path from here until you found the teleporter. From there, just follow the arrow once again. Once you reached the courtyard, you'll need to kill the Morden and talk with the captain. Before you do that, enter the building straight ahead of you, and trade the statue of Xelia with a Morden Head on a Pike. Now talk with the commander. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 8: The Siege of Snowbrook Haven, Part II [DS.03.21] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the building in the east, and find your way up. Once you got there, kill the Brall who are throwing things down. Take the elevator down, and talk to the commander. The Morden will break through the gate. Kill them, and talk with the commander again. You need to destroy the dragon. Head up with the elevator, and head south. You need to move the ballistic, so it aims at the dragon, and then use the ballistic itself to fire at the dragon. In the mean-time, he'll shoot fire at you, and enemies will drop down. Just finish the dragon off as quick as you can, and you'll be fine. Report to the commander when it died. She'll turn into a zombie, so just run, and get the Aegis (in the east). Once you try to go further east, after you found the second Aegis, the dragon will show up again. Finish it off once and for all. Pick up the stuff, and talk to the scholar. Before you leave the castle, pick up the Greater Chant of Intelligence behind the portal, the Greater Chant of Dexterity and the Great Chant of Strength. Then leave. Find Lord Kaltrathia in the town of Kaltrathia and talk to the little kid. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Act 3 [DS.03.22] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 1: Restore Kaltrathia's Water [DS.03.23] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests: * Dwarven Song of Ore (Finished later) * The Lore of Aranna (Finished later) * The Lost Jewels of Soranith (Finished later) * The Legendary Mace of Agarrus (Finished) * The Mage's Apprentice (Finished later) * Mark of the Assassin (Continued) So, the last act already. Talk with Historical Leontia for a quest. You need to recover a song. Then head to the inn, and talk with Khartos. He'll help you with a previous quest. Also talk to Kevarre the Explorer for another quest. Head towards the alchemy shops, and talk with Mage Boden for yet another quest. AFter that talk to Enchantress Valeria for an old quest. When you go straight east from the teleporter, you'll be able to enter a house. There's the book "Elves and Elven Culture" here. Outside is Berseba, who has another quest for you. Then walk to the house near the northern wall. Inside is the book "The Legacy of Azunai". Head up the stairs to the east, and enter the house to the north. Talk with Telgrey the Scholar for... yes, a quest. He wants twenty books from you. If you followed the guide, you'll have a great deal of them (but not all). Four are hidden and can only be found during Amren's quest, which we didn't start yet. Later, my friend. Finally, find Nora in Kaltrathia, and talk to her for a quest (northern part of town). We will do the quest right away. First, head to the Temple of Xeria. Head west from the teleporter, and then north. Use the statue to find the Chamber of Earth. Stand on the yellow symbol, equip the staff, and press enter. Then type "acresso arcanum" (without quotes). That's number one. Now the next one. Head to the Lost Valley of the Azunite and head south from the teleporter. You'll find the Caverns of the Phoenix. Do the same thing as before. For the last one, head to the Snowbrook Haven Living Quarters. From there, walk back towards the Servant's Entrance. Once you crossed a bridge, head north and you'll find the Caverns of Frost. Do your thing. We'll get back to the quest later. Return to Amen'Lu, and talk to Explorer Tai'esse in the tavern for an update on a quest. Head to the Snowbrook Foothills, and enter the grotto. Then find your way to two wooden doors, which you can open with the key (that's as detailed as it gets). Inside, pick up the tablet and return it. We now need to head to the Lost Valley of the Azunite. From there, walk towards the fortress. You'll walk over a bridge in a small canyon, before you enter a cave again. Here, seek the bridge that doesn't lead to the other side. Find the button to active it. Take the elevator down and talk with the man inside to finish the quest. Head to Amen'Lu again, and talk with the bartender. Deny the stories, and you can enter the arena. Use the elevator behind him to get down, and talk with the man. He'll let you in. All the way down is another man. Talk with him, and you can play. You need to buy a token, use it, and defeat the enemies. Do this ten times to win. Once you did that (you may need to come back later because you're too weak right now), you'll be able to get a token from the mysterious set - needed to enter the secret area. ============================================================================== Quests [DS.04.01] ============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Act 1 [DS.04.02] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Primary Quests [DS.04.03] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 1: Simply follow the orders and follow the linear path. Chapter 2: Once you are free, go to the blacksmith to get some stones. Then leave the town through the only possible exit and follow the guard. Chapter 3: Simply follow the arrows on your compass, and destroy the four towers. Then return to town. Chapter 4: Take the teleporter behind the fourth tower, and head south. Inside the shrine, you'll find the fountain with the cure. Chapter 5: Leave town through the south gate, and follow the path. You'll end up at the colony. Save the old man and talk to him. Chapter 6: Head through the cave ahead of you. You need to go through the upper and lower level. Once outside, destroy the shard and talk to the old man of chapter 5, who's standing on the beach. Take the teleporter and talk to the captain. Chapter 7: Head north of town, by taking the path down. Talk to the monsters, then kill them. Head west for the second Stela. Head back and go north for the third Stela. Then go north and west for the final Stela. Find the vault in the cave to the northeast, and put the Stelas there. Then pick up the goodies. Chapter 8: Leave the vault, head up and then head north. In the next cave you'll find a puzzle with mirrors. Put the mirror you found into the statue and solve the easy puzzle. Check the map you got if you're unsure. Head down the stairs, pick up the artifact and talk to the Elven Spirit. Chapter 9: Head up the stairs and talk to the Elven Spirit. Follow the path until you found the fortress. Inside, find the captain. Head inside the vault, and kill the monsters to get the key to the inner vault. Put the bowl into the blue flames, then return to the captain. Head for the temple and head inside. Chapter 10: Kill everyone inside, and put the artifact into the hands of the statue. Then kill the big boss, destroy the shard and enter the portal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Secondary Quests [DS.04.04] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Armorer's Apprentice (lvl. 3) - Talk with the girl inside the shop of the blacksmith to start this quest. Once you can access the great hall (at the end of chapter 3), head inside and find the book she needs. Read it and remember what she needs. Then tell her how it works, and she'll create armor for you. Lumilla's Salve (lvl. 3)- You need to get four clusters. You can either buy them from the merchant near the shops, or find them in the jungle. Your reward is an item to enchant your armor/weapons. Lelani's Sorrow (lvl. 3)- Start this by talking to the woman near the pet shop. She wants to get a safekeep. Pick up the doll. You can trade it with Fenella near the falls. The ale you get can be traded with a soldier at the end of chapter 6, in the desert. He'll give you meat, which you can trade for a statue with a guy in the inn. The statue can be traded with a soldier during Act 2, chapter 7, who's hiding in the building the commander stands on when you first meet her. Go south of Aman'lu, past the bridge and talk to the guy inside one of the houses there for some Elven water. Then, North of Kaltrathia is a small tower, take the elevator down there and give the water to that guy for an old relic. Take that to one of the guys sitting in one of the corner towers of Kalrathia for some feathers.

To place a spell in his Spell Book, RIGHT-CLICK a spell in his inventory or DRAG the spell to a Spell Book panel. The Character Panel on the left side of the screen is used to select equipped weapons and spells. The first four spells in a character's Spell Book appear in the Character Panel. LEFT-CLICK a spell icon in the Character Panel to select it and use that spell. Lesson 7: Casting Spells ------------------------ To attack an enemy with spells, equip and select an attack spell and then simply attack an enemy the same way you would attack with a weapon. When the pointer is over a valid target for an equipped spell, the pointer turns red. RIGHT-CLICK to cast other types of spells. To heal party members, RIGHT-CLICK the characters or their portraits. RIGHT-CLICK the ground to cast summoning spells and RIGHT-CLICK items to transmute them. When the pointer is over a valid target for an equipped beneficial spell, such as healing or embrace spells, the pointer turns blue, as shown. Lesson 8: Autocast Spells ------------------------- The fifth and sixth slot in a character's Spell Book are autocast slots. If a character has a spell equipped in an autocast slot, they will automatically cast that spell on any valid targets in their range. The following types of spells can be autocast. Healing: Characters will cast healing magic on any wounded allies in range. Enhancement: Characters will enhance any characters in range that do not have the maximum number of enhancements. They will recast any enhancement that wear off. Curse: Characters will curse any monsters in range that are not already cursed. Summoning: Characters will summon a creature whenever their summon dies or is dismissed. Lesson 9: Class Experience and Character Level ---------------------------------------------- Every time a character damages a monster he earns classes experience, depending on the type of attack he uses. For example, melee weapons, such as swords, increase Melee skill, while Nature Magic spells increase Nature Magic skills. Characters are most powerful when they focus on one class, but getting a few levels in a second class is a great way to pick up useful skills. Parties with a variety of classes are often more versatile and powerful. Increasing class levels allow characters to use more advanced equipment and spells. Progress towards the next class level is displayed in the progress bar in the Class Stats on the Inventory Tab. Character level increases when a character earns enough experience of any type. It is a good indication of overall power level. Characters earn one skill point each time they advance in character level. Progress towards the next character level is displayed in the progress bar under the character's name in the Character Window. Lesson 10: Stat Experience and Experience Sharing ------------------------------------------------- Fighting monsters increases statistics as well as class levels. The attack a character uses determines which statistic increases the most. Melee weapons primarily increase strength, ranged weapons primarily increase dexterity, and spells primarily increase intelligence. Strength increase melee weapon damage and maximum health. Dexterity increases ranged weapon damage. Intelligence increases spell effectiveness and maximum mana. A character's progress towards the next class level is displayed in the progress bar in the Class Stats on the Inventory tab. All conscious party members in a region share experience equally, so even if one of your companions isn't dealing as much damage as another, they will both earn the same amount of experience. Lesson 11: Journal ------------------ To open the Journal, LEFT-CLICK the Journal button in the lower left of the screen, or press J. Quests are listed on a Journal's Quest Log tab. They are organized by Act and divided into Primary and Secondary sections. Primary quests must be completed to progress in your missions, but Secondary quests are optional. Whenever you complete a task or are assigned a new quest, the Journal button flashes to indicate that the Journal has been updated. You can also look in your Journal to find maps, information about monsters you've defeated, and other useful information. LEFT-CLICK the Journal's Lore tab to see important items you have collected. Quest items, books, maps and chants that you find are stored on your Lore tab instead of in your Inventory. Journal Hotkey: * Open Journal: J Lesson 12: Finding Quests ------------------------- There are two types of quests: Primary and Secondary. Primary quests must be completed to progress in your mission, but Secondary quests are optional. Characters with gold exclamation points over their head can assign Primary quests to you, so you should speak to them to advance in your journey. Characters with orange exclamation points over their heads will assign Secondary quests. If you are working on a quest task for a character, they will have a grey question mark over their head. A character with a gold question mark over their head will complete a task in the Primary quest if you speak to them. A character that can complete a Secondary quest task will have an orange question mark over their head. Some Secondary quests can only be assigned to certain party members. Characters who assign these Personal quests are indication by a green exclamation mark. * Gold Exclamation Point -- new Primary quest * Gold Question Mark -- completed Primary quest * Orange Exclamation Point -- new Secondary quest * Orange Question Mark -- completed Secondary quest * Gray Question Mark -- incomplete quest * Green Exclamation Point -- new Personal quest Lesson 13: The Active Character ------------------------------- All party members are marked by green circles around their feet. The active character has a brighter green color around his feet and a brighter green border around his Character Portrait. You control the active character directly -- he does what you tell him to do and nothing more. The active character will not move or defend himself. Other party members act on their own, bases on the current Party Orders. To select a different active character, LEFT-CLICK that character in the world, or LEFT-CLICK his portrait in the upper left of the screen. You can also use hotkeys to select a new active character. Active Character Hotkeys: * Make Next Character Active: . * Make Previous Character Active: , * Make First Character Active: F1 * Make Second Character Active: F2 * Make Third Character Active: F3 * Make Fourth Character Active: F4 * Make Fifth Character Active: F5 * Make Sixth Character Active: F6 Lesson 14: Party Orders ----------------------- Party Orders control how characters in your party act when you are not controlling them directly. There are two options: Rampage: Party members actively seek out and attack any monsters they can see. Mirror: Party members imitate the active character. They move where he moves and attack the same monsters he attacks. To set Party Orders, LEFT-CLICK the View Party Option button in the lower right of the screen, or use the associated hotkeys. To gather your party to one spot, LEFT-CLICK the Regroup Party button or press the R key. Hold Ground: If you want everyone in your party to hold their positions, you can do so by holding down the C key. Formation Rank determines where in the formation each party member will stand. You can change formations by holding down LEFT-CLICK and dragging a character portrait up and down. This is useful if, for example, you'd like to move a weaker character to the back of the formation. Party Order Hotkeys: * Set Rampage Party Order: G * Set Mirror Party Order: F * Expand Formation: LEFT BRACKET ([) * Contract Formation: RIGHT BRACKET (]) * Regroup Party: R * Hold Ground: C Lesson 15: Potions ------------------ If your party members become wounded, you can LEFT-CLICK the Health Potions button in the lower left of the screen or press H to make them drink health potions. Only party members who are not at full health will drink a potion, and they will only drink as much as they need. To restore your party members' mana, LEFT-CLICK the Mana Potion button in the lower left of the screen or press M to make them drink mana potions. Potions restore health and mana slowly, so plan ahead in dangerous fights. Party members share potions automatically, so if a character is out of potions she will drink a potion a companion is carrying. Party members use only as much of a potion as they need. You can combine partial potions of the same type by DRAGGING one to the other in a character's Inventory. Potion Hotkeys: * Drink Health Potions: H * Drink Mana Potions: M Lesson 16: Monster Information ------------------------------ Some monsters are stronger than others. When you attack a monster, you will see its Health Bar appear at the top of the screen. The more ornate the Health Bar border, the more powerful the monster. However, you should be able to defeat any monster that is close to your level. When you place the pointer over a monster, information about it will appear in the Status Bar at the top of the screen. The monster's level is shown in parentheses next to its name, and its name and level are color-coded bases on the difference between its level and your own: * Green -- five or more levels below you * Blue - between four levels and two levels below you * Yellow -- between one level below you and one level above you * Orange -- between two and four levels above you * Red -- five or more levels above you Focus on fighting monsters that are close to your own level. If the monsters you fight are many levels above or below you, you receive reduced experience for defeating them. Lesson 17: Resistances and Weaknesses ------------------------------------- There are many ways to attack enemies in Dungeon Siege II. You can attack them with melee weapons, shoot them with ranged attacks, or cast damaging spells at them. Some monsters are particularly resistant or weak to certain types of attacks. It is good to know what types of attacks there are: * Melee -- damage from melee weapons * Ranged -- damage from ranged weapons * Physical -- damage from ranged or melee weapons * Magic -- damage from any spell attack * Fire -- damage from fire attacks * Lightning -- damage from lightning attacks * Death -- damage from necromantic attacks * Ice -- damage from ice spells When you are attacking a monster, you can see its resistance and weakness below its Health Bar at top of the screen. Try to use attacks the monster is weak to. Be careful -- if the monster's resistance to and attack is more than 100%, the attack will heal it! Your characters can find spells and items that increase their own resistance. Look for resistance items and use them when facing monsters that attack with elements. You can never resist more than 95% of an attack. Lesson 18: Compass Map ---------------------- The Compass Map is located in the lower right of the screen. It shows an overhead view of the area around the party and serves as a compass. Important locations, such as shops, are marked on the Compass Map with icons. Enemies are displayed on the Compass Map as red dots and neutral characters as green dots. Interactive objects, such as levers, appear as blue dots. The Compass Map also guides you to important quest goals. Primary quests goals are marked by gold starts on the Compass Map, and secondary quest goals are marked by silver stars. A gold arrow points in the direction of your next primary quest goal. Resize the Compass Map by LEFT-CLICKING the up and down arrow buttons below it. Zoom the Compass Map in and out by adjusting the slider below the Compass Map. Hold down TAB for a larger version of the Compass Map. Map Hotkeys: * Show Overlay Map: TAB Lesson 19: Configuring Powers ----------------------------- Powers are special abilities that can turn the tide of the battle for the party, but they require wisdom and strategic timing to use properly. To set powers for characters to use, LEFT-CLICK the Specialities tab in the Character Windows and DRAG powers to the circular slots in the Character Panel. You can configure up to four powers per character. LEFT-CLICK a power in the Character Panel to select it. When a power is selected, a small border appears around it. The party's currently selected powers appear as button in the Power Bar at the bottom of the screen. Each character can only have one power selected at a time, so the first slot in the Power Bar always contains the first character's selected power, the second slot always contains the second character's power, and so on. Lesson 20: Using Powers ----------------------- To use a character's power, LEFT-CLICK the button for that power in the Power Bar at the bottom of the screen. Powers with orange icons active immediately and do not need to be targeted. If you LEFT-CLICK a Power Bar button with a blue icon, you will enter targeting mode. A power targeting reticule will appear; place it over your target and RIGHT-CLICK to fire the power. LEFT-CLICK to exit targeting mode if you decide not to use the power. Different powers target different things. Check the power description on the Specialities tab to see what the power targets and whether it chooses targets automatically. You can also use hotkeys to active powers. Each Power Bar button displays that power's hotkey in its corner. Power Hotkeys/Buttons: * Fire Powers: RIGHT-CLICK * Exiting Targeting Mode: LEFT-CLICK * Active Power 1: 1 * Active Power 2: 2 * Active Power 3: 3 * Active Power 4: 4 * Active Power 5: 5 * Active Power 6: 6 Lesson 21: Recharging Powers ---------------------------- After using a power, characters must recover their strength before they can use a power again. After a power is used, that power's icon becomes dark. The darkness lifts as the party damages creatures. When a power is fully recharged, the Power Bar button flashes to indicate that the power is ready to use again. Powers have different recovery rates bases on their potency. If a character attempts to use a power before he has recovered, nothing will happen and an error message will appear. Characters can gain abilities or special items that help their powers recharge more quickly. Keep an eye out as you explore the world. Lesson 22: Learning Powers -------------------------- To view a character's powers, LEFT-CLICK the Specialities tab in the Character Window or press P. Under the Specialities tab are four additional tabs -- one for each class. Each tab displays the powers a member of that class can learn. Place your pointer over a power on the Powers panel to display a tooltip with information on what the power targets, what it does, and what happens when you upgrade it. Each power has three levels of strength, and each level requires certain skills. The skills that your character must gain before they can learn or upgrade the power are displayed in red. To learn a power, assign the needed number of points to each of the required skills. The character will learn the power automatically once they have the required skills. Plan ahead what powers you want to learn and assign points carefully. See the 'Skills' and 'Upgrading Skills' lessons for more information. Lesson 23: Skills ----------------- Skills give characters passive bonuses that enhance their effectiveness in combat. Characters purchase skills using skill points that they earn from quests and by advancing in character level. Characters earn one skill point each time they advance in character level. To view a character's skill tree, LEFT-CLICK the Specialties tab in the Character Window or press P. Under the Specialties tab are four additional tabs -- one for each class. Each tab has a skill tree for that class. Place the pointer over a skill for information about its effects and requirements. Every skill has a class level requirement that characters must meet before they can purchase it, and most skills require characters to learn other skills first. Each class has a unique set of skills. Some abilities can only be acquired through skills, and powers have skill requirements before characters can learn them. Some weapons can only be used by characters who have learned certain skills. Skills Hotkey: * Specialties Tab: P Lesson 24: Upgrading Skills --------------------------- When a character earns a new skill point, a plus icon appears over his portrait. When a character has skill points available to spend, a smaller plus icon appears in the lower left of his portrait. LEFT-CLICKING either icon opens the Specialties tab in the Character Window. If you place the point over a skill that you do not meet all the requirements for, any skill that you still need to upgrade will flash green. If you meet the requirements to upgrade a skill and have a skill point to spare, LEFT-CLICK the skill to assign a point to it. You can assign up to 20 points to a skill. To unassign an unconfirmed skill point, RIGHT-CLICK a skill. Assigning skill points does not automatically upgrade skills! You must LEFT- CLICK the Confirm button to lock in your upgrades permanently Unconfirmed skill point assignments will be reset if you LEFT-CLICK the Reset button or leave the Specialties tab. The number of points that you have left to spend is displayed at the bottom of the Specialties tab. Lesson 25: Saving and Loading Single-Player Games ------------------------------------------------- When you save your game, all information about your character and the world is saved, including experience, equipment, monsters killed and quests completed. When you load a game, the party returns to the nearest major town. To save your game, press ESC and then LEFT-CLICK Save Game. You may also save your game by pressing CTRL+S. To continue your most recently saved Single Player saved gamed, LEFT-CLICK the Continue option from the Main menu. You can also choose a party from the Single Player menu to play your last saved game for that party. Any tombstones from dead party members that were in the world when you last saved appear in town next to your party when you load the game. Save Hotkey: * Save Game: CTRL+S Lesson: 26: Item Shops ---------------------- There are many different shops in Aranna that sell a variety of goods, including weapons, armor, spells and potions. To shop, talk to a shopkeeper and ask to see their wares. The Shop window will appear next to the Character Window of your primarily selected character. To shop with a different character, LEFT-CLICK his portrait. The Shop window has tabs for the different types of items that the shopkeeper sells. LEFT-CLICK the arrows at the top of each tab to see more items for sale. Place the pointer over items to see their sell price. To sell an item, DRAG it from your Inventory to the store. To buy an item, DRAG it from the store to your Inventory. If you don't have enough gold, you won't be able to buy an item. To quickly sell or buy an item, hold down CTRL and LEFT-CLICK the item in your Inventory or in the store. When you sell an item to the shop, it immediately appears in the shopkeeper's Inventory. For a short time you can change your mind and buy it back for the same price you sold it for. Shopkeepers update their Inventory periodically, so if you see an item you really want, you should try to buy it right away. As your party grows stronger, the items offered by shopkeepers improve. If you didn't find anything you needed the last time you went shopping, check again later. Shopping Hotkey: * Instantly Buy or Sell and Item: CTRL (and LEFT-CLICK item) Lesson 27: Enhancement and Curse Spells --------------------------------------- Nature Mages can learn enhancement spells, including Embrace and Wrath spells, that can increase your party's abilities. Combat Mages can learn Curse spells that weaken the abilities of your enemies. Your enemies can also enhance each other and curse you! Small icons appear on your characters' portraits if they have been enhanced or cursed or have summoned a creature. Place your pointer over these icons to see the name of the spell and the time remaining until it fades. A character can be affected by at most two enhancement spells and one curse, and they can summon only one creature at a time. If you want to summon a new creature or cast a different enhancement, you must remove a beneficial spell first. To remove an enhancement from a character or dismiss their summoned creature, open that character's Inventory tab and LEFT-CLICK the View button to show the Character Viewer. The icons for any spells affecting the character are displayed here. RIGHT-CLICK a beneficial spell's icon to remove the spell. Lesson 28: Reagents and Enchanting Items ---------------------------------------- Reagents are items such as animal teeth or gemstones that have absorbed magical energy from the world. Each reagent has different magical properties, according to its nature. Enchanters can weave the magic from reagents into existing weapons and armor, creating an object with unique abilities. All major towns have an enchanter who uses reagents to enchant items -- for a price. Reagents come in all shapes and sizes. Place the pointer over a reagent to see what enchantment it grants and what types of items it can be applied to. Only non-magical items of good quality or better can be enchanted. Speak to an enchanter and place the item you wish to enchant in its item slot to see its reagent grid. Item quality determines how much space there is for reagents on that item: * Good Items -- 2x2 * Great Items -- 3x2 * Exceptional Items -- 3x3 * Legendary Items -- 4x4 To create an enchanted item, arrange the desired reagents in the reagent grid, and then LEFT-CLICK the Enchant Item button. The cost to enchant an item is based on the quality of the item and the number and power of reagents you wish to combine with it. Lesson 29: Teleporters ---------------------- In your journeys through Aranna, you will come across networks of ancient teleporters, once used to travel across the world but now in poor repair. Your party can use them to instantly travel to locations they've previously visited. Approach a teleporter to activate it or LEFT-CLICK it to open a list of teleport locations that you can travel to. DOUBLE-CLICK a location or select a location and then LEFT-CLICK OK to teleport there. You can teleport back to the nearest town by casting the Summon Teleporter spell, which creates a limited-use, two-way teleporter. Activate the teleporter by LEFT-CLICKING it to teleport back to town. Teleporters expire when your party creates a new teleporter, or when all character that teleported to town have teleported back to the field through the teleporter. Lesson 30: The Storage Vault ---------------------------- The storage vault is a chest located next to the teleporter in every large town. Your party can use the storage vault to store items that they don't want to carry, but don't want to sell. The contents of the storage vault are the same in every town, and are saved with other party data. To open the storage vault, LEFT-CLICK on the vault chest. The Storage Vault window appears in the same location as the Store window. The Inventory of the primary selected character is also displayed. You can DRAG items between your character's Inventory and the storage vault, or hold down CTRL and LEFT-CLICK items in the storage vault or your character's Inventory to transfer them instantly, just like shopping. You can select a different character while the storage vault is open by LEFT- CLICKING his portrait; this allows you to manage multiple character Inventories without closing the storage vault. Lesson 31: Death and Unconsciousness ------------------------------------ When a character loses all his health, he falls unconscious -- his portrait gradually fills with red to indicate how far below zero health he has fallen. An unconscious character regenerates normally and can be healed by magic. When his health rises above zero, he regains consciousness. If an unconscious character takes enough damage to fill his portrait entirely with red, he dies. His portrait turns grey. Dead characters do not regenerate and cannot be healed. They must be resurrected with a spell or a scroll. Resurrection scrolls can be purchased at the magic shop in town. Lesson 32: Party Death ---------------------- If every character in your party dies or is knocked unconscious, the entire party dies and may respawn in a safe place, such as a town. If you choose to respawn, all of your party's equipped items and 25% of their gold will remain at the spot where they died, marked by a tombstone. To recover their gear, the party must travel to where they died and approach their tombstones. When they are close enough, they will automatically reequip all the gear they can and place the rest in their Inventories. If a character's Inventory is too full to retrieve all his gear, the remaining items will stay on his tombstone until he can make room for them. When all his equipment has been retrieved, his tombstone disappears. If you choose, you can talk to a member of the Guild of Death, who can instantly warp your tombstones to town. He will keep the gold that the party dropped, but you will be able to retrieve your equipped items. If you save and reload the game, the Guild of Death automatically warps your tombstones to town, and keeps the dropped gold. Lesson 33: Hiring Companions and the Inn ---------------------------------------- Throughout your adventure, you'll encounter heroes who can join your party. It is your choice whether to take them with you; many are skilled fighters, and they may have skills that will complement your party. You can't invite someone to join your party if you don't have an available party slot. You start with enough slots for two characters, and you may purchase more from the innkeeper at any major town. If you decide that you no longer need a companion's company, open his Character Window and LEFT-CLICK the Disband Character button in the upper left of the window. Disbanded characters will return to the inn and will not gain experience while they are not in your party. You can rehire disbanded characters by talking to the innkeeper at any major town. The innkeeper will show you a list of former companions and pets. LEFT- CLICK the View button to see their statistics, and LEFT-CLICK the Add button to add them to your party. Lesson 34: Managing Party Inventories ------------------------------------- It is possible to view and manage the Inventories of the entire party at once. Press V to open the Inventories of all party members. DRAG items between character Inventories to trade, or DRAG an item to a Character Portrait to give the item to that character. If multiple character Inventories are open, hold down CTRL and LEFT-CLICK an item in a character's Inventory to transfer it to the next character without dropping the item on the ground. This is a handy tool for rearranging items quickly. You can still RIGHT-CLICK to equip gear from a character's Inventory Panel, even if multiple Inventories are open. To close a single character's Inventory, LEFT-CLICK the X button in the upper-right corner of her Character Window, or hold down CTRL and LEFT-CLICK her portrait. You can also hold down CTRL and LEFT-CLICK a portrait to open an additional character's Inventory. Party Inventory Hotkeys: * Open Multiple Character Inventories: V * Transfer Item to Another Party Member: CTRL (and LEFT-CLICK the item) Lesson 35: Adventuring: Health and Mana Bushes ---------------------------------------------- Following the great cataclysm, as the newly formed web of ley lines spread across Aranna, small trickles of magical energy rose to the surface. In some places, the flow was strong enough to create a permanent upwelling. Any plants growing in those places eventually take on magical properties of their own, becoming reservoirs of either health or mana replenishing energy. Some adventurers have mastered the art of harvesting the energy from these bushes in the form of berries that can restore health or mana, like potions. Rangers harvest health bushes by specializing in the Survival skill, while Nature Mages harvest mana bushes by specializing in the Natural Bond skill. Lesson 36: Adventuring: Incantation Shrines ------------------------------------------- Incantation shrines are mysterious structures that stand on nodes of magical power. By standing in the shrine and reciting a chant, your party can draw upon that magical energy for temporary bonuses. Incantation shrines are circular stone structures with five pillars, marked with runes and glowing with an eldritch blue light. When a character stands inside, the glow intensifies, indicating that a chant can be used. To recite a chant, open the Chants page on the Lore tab of your Journal. Select a chant and then LEFT-CLICK the Recite Chant button in the lower right of the Journal. You can also recite a chant directly. Open the chat interface by pressing ENTER, type the chant, and then press ENTER again. There are many ways to learn chants. You can learn some chants from wise teachers, and others are written in tomes or on scraps of paper in long- forgotten dungeons. When you learn a chant, it is added to the Chants page of the Journal's Lore tab. Lesson 37: Adventuring: Sanctuary Doors --------------------------------------- The origin of the traveller's sanctuaries remains shrouded in mystery. These small treasure rooms locked behind magical doors serve as a welcome boon to any traveller able to access them. They are usually found along the old trade routes within ruins of ancient civilizations -- remote, dangerous regions where only adventurers dare to tread. Each sanctuary door can only be opened by a character sufficiently skilled in a certain class; the necessary class is marked with an icon on the door. If you place the pointer over the door, the Status Bar at the top of the screen will display the level and class required to open it. To open the sanctuary door, select a character with a high enough level in the necessary skill, equip him with the appropriate type of weapon or spell, and direct him to attack the door. Lesson 38: Adventuring: Rare Items ---------------------------------- Most magical items in Aranna have only one or two modifiers, but some were forged by exceptionally skilled mages or under particularly intense circumstances. These rare items can have up to four modifiers, and are especially valuable to adventurers. These items' names are displayed in light blue. Adventurers may also find lost magical relics. These weapons and pieces of armor once belonged to the legendary heroes of Aranna's past, and often carry a fragment of a hero's essence with them. Some increase in power when combined with other items that once belonged to the same hero. These 'set' and 'unique' items are the most powerful tools in an adventurer's arsenal. Set item names are yellow, and unique items names are purple. Lesson 39: Adventuring: War Pedestals ------------------------------------- The origin of the war pedestals remains shrouded in mystery. These strange monuments are scattered throughout the ruins of Aranna and are avoided by most travellers. Unknown to many, the war pedestals house magic that those with good hearts can use to instantly recover their powers. To activate a war pedestal, RIGHT-CLICK it to attack it with your active character. This will release the pedestal's magic, and the active character will instantly recover his powers and will be able to use them again immediately. Lesson 40: Adventuring: Monster Hatreds --------------------------------------- Every time a character does something to oppose a monster, such as attacking it or healing his companions, the monster will become angry. Normally, monsters attack whatever target is easiest for them to reach, but if a character makes it especially angry it will flare red with anger and attack only that character. Clever parties can use monster anger to their advantage. Some monsters have hatreds -- certain actions that make them particularly angry. When attacking a monster, look for information about its hatreds in its Health Bar at the top of the screen. Avoid performing that action with your character unless you want to make the monsters so angry that they attack him! Some powers, such as Provoke and Summon Provoke, can instantly make monsters angry at the character of your choice. Use these powers to keep monsters away from vulnerable party members. Lesson 41: Hiring Pets ---------------------- Pets are special non-humanoid party members that can help you on your journey. They cannot learn skills or wear gear, but you can customize them by feeding them items, and they can learn special powers that your other party members cannot. Your pets will get more powerful as your party increases in levels, but they don't earn experience. Unlike your other party members, a pet's level is always equal to your hero's level, even if it is disbanded and rehired later on. A pet's stats grow according to its level. You can purchase pets at pet shops. Pet shops exist in each town, and new pets become available in the pet shops as the party discovers them along their journey. Speak to a pet seller to see a list of the pets they sell. LEFT-CLICK the Details button to show the abilities and stats of each pet. LEFT-CLICK the Buy button to add the selected pet to your party. When you disband a pet from your party, you can choose whether to send it to the inn or release it into the wild. Released pets are gone forever. If you send your pet to the inn, you can talk to the innkeeper to get it back in your party. You can also release your pets into the wild from the inn. Lesson 42: Powering Up Pets --------------------------- You can feed pets items to increase their maturity. The more expensive an item you feed them, the more they grow. To feed an item to a pet, DRAG the item to the Character Viewer on your pet's Inventory tab. LEFT-CLICK the pet's Development tab to see its stats. Pets can gain bonuses depending on the items your feed them: * Fighter weapons give a large strength increase. * Ranged weapons give a large dexterity increase. * Mage weapons and spells give a large intelligence increase. * Fighter armor increases armor and adds a little strength. * Ranger armor increases armor and adds a little dexterity. * Mage armor increases armor and adds a little intelligence. * Potions increase health and mana. * Reagents, rings and amulets give a small bonus to everything. Lesson 43: Pet Emanations and Powers ------------------------------------ Your pet can learn an emanation or power at certain maturity levels. Each pet has a unique power and emanation. Pets learn their power when they have eaten enough items to reach juvenile maturity and their emanation when they become fully mature. Pet powers are used the same way as character powers. To learn more about a pet's power, place the pointer over the Power icon on the pet's Development tab. And emanation is a powerful aura that grants a bonus to all character's within a certain radius of the pet. Each type of pet grants a different bonus with their emanation. To learn more about a pet's emanation, place the pointer over the Emanations icon on the pet's Development tab. Emanation bonuses from the same type of pet don't combine. Lesson 44: Saving and Loading Multiplayer Games ----------------------------------------------- Your multiplayer party -- including all experience and equipment data -- is periodically saved as you play a multiplayer game. No information about the world is saved, however, unless you save the session. To exit and save your party data only, press ESC and then LEFT-CLICK Save and Exit. To save your party and the current session, press ESC and then LEFT-CLICK Save Session. World data, such as quests completed and monsters killed, is saved along with your party's information. When you start a multiplayer game, you can start at the beginning of the game or load a saved session. To load a saved session, select it from the list of saved sessions in the host's Game Options window. ============================================================================== Specialities [DS.09.01] ============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Melee [DS.09.02] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Level 1----------Level 5----------Level 12----------Level 24---------Level 36 ------[Barricade]------------------------[Reinforced]-----[Rebuke] / [ Armor ] [Fortitude]-----------------------[Toughness] \ ----[Overbear]-------------------------[Smite] / [Critical]-----------------------------------------------------------[Deadly ] [ Strike ] \ [ Strike] ----[Dual ]---------[Alacrity]--------[Fierce ] [ Wield] [ Renewal] Powers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brutal Attack "Though originated by half-giant warriors, many warriors learn this technique, focusing all their strength into their next attack, fighters deal massive damage with a single, brutal strike."

Deru - Like most Dryads, Deru is very straightforward. She is energetic, lives completely in the present, and adapts instantly to changing circumstances. She doesn't spend much time pondering the mystery of the universe, but she'll spot danger before anyone else does. She's also decisive to the point of being impulsive. If she thinks it's time to attack, she'll do it and deal with the consequences later. She's not all straight-faced, though - she's able to defuse tense situations with her wicked sense of humor. She might be a bit too impulsive however. Her love of adventure overwhelms her, particularly when there's a mystery to unlock. The slightest rumor of a lost treasure is irresistible to her. Though her habit of bald truth-telling comes off as impolite in some circles, she is an extremely valuable ally for exactly this reason. In a combat situation, your best friend is someone like Deru: quick, clear, and on the job. Found near the merchant in Act 1. Lothar - Half-Giants are normally reserved, but Lothar is even more so. His few verbal expressions are gruff and terse, and he silently communicates his dislike for most people. The key to his isolation may lie in the accusations of thievery levelled at him years ago in his home town of Aman'lu. Though that Elven town is famous for its diverse population, a few residents harbor the worst kind of bigotry in their hearts, particularly against Half-Giants. Did such bigotry drive him from his home? He doesn't seem the type to run from anything. More likely, he prefers the lone path of battle and adventure to a small-town life as a craftsman. He fears no one, and if you are one of the rare people he considers a friend, you'll find a fierce loyalty. He also has a deep understanding of craftsmanship and can make, build, or forge almost anything. This talent makes him invaluable before, during, and after battle-building, using, and then repairing weapons. His size and strength don't hurt either, and there is little chance he will let that go unnoticed. If your friendship should extend to the battlefield, there is no one you would rather have at your side than Lothar. An expert swordsman, he is all business in combat. And that is where he is most comfortable; misanthrope that he is, he enjoys ridding the world of bad characters. He doesn't have much to say about Valdis, but seeing the destruction he creates makes Lothar want five minutes alone in an arena with him, but the open battlefield may have to suffice. Found near the merchant in Act 1. Taar - Taar is acutely aware of the world around her, but she is more laid back and relaxed than her Dryad sisters. As a child, she was a good communicator with both humanoids and animals, qualities she has retained in her adulthood. Taar's passion for animals is intense. If you have pets, she is instantly drawn to them. Taar is cautious around Half-Giants, wary of their size. Her relationship with Elves, though, must be described as nothing short of fascination. It is said that Dryads were created partly from Elven blood during the great cataclysm. But the trait that most attracts her to Elves is their talent for tapping into the subconscious of the creatures around them. Found at the end of Act 1, chapter 4. Vix - One of the stronger and more assertive Humans you'll meet in Aranna, Vix's first words were probably, "Move over, I'll handle this." Vix is a natural leader despite his spontaneity and apparent hubris. He values truth above all and is not convinced by emotional appeals - he wants the cold, hard facts. One such fact is the devastation that war has wreaked on his troops. He is very close to his men, and any entity that harms them will answer to a very angry Vix. He strives toward mastery in all things, not just battle. He instinctively sizes up people and situations and naturally asserts his innate dominance any time he can. Though he's extremely competitive, the people he admires are as strong as he is. He takes more pleasure from a pushy, surly Dryad like Deru than one he can easily control, like Taar. He can be argumentative and hard to approach, and he doesn't welcome advice on the battlefield. He acts quickly - his impulsiveness sometimes puts himself (and others) in harm's way. All the same, he's very entertaining at a party: No one can put away flagons of mead like Vix. Found during Act 1, chapter 6. Can be found at the inn once rejected. Sartan - Half-Giants - as naturally solitary creatures, have difficulty making friends. Most are considered contemplative and mysterious, but that is the last thing people would say about Sartan. The words "narcissist", "lunatic", and "overbearing" are somehow more appropriate. Needless to say, he has more problems making friends than most, but he always tries. If you are female, he will remind you often of his nearly perfect physique and battle prowess. For all his faults, Sartan is a natural soldier who thrives on challenge and action. He's realistic and practical and understands exactly what any given situation needs. He can be reckless at times, but those who adventure with him can temper this trait. Found at the end of Act 1, chapter 9. Side-quest needed to release him. Amren - Many residents of Aman'lu have only heard legends of this wayward Elf. His travels have taken him to exotic places, and his stories are now gilded into legend. Amren is known throughout Aranna for his wisdom and his gift of sight. He is one of the few trusted advisors to the Dryads on Greilyn Isle and frequently spends long periods of time away from his hometown. He is "Amren the Absent" to those in Aman'lu who feel abandoned. To others, he is Amren the fearless warrior, expert archer, and visionary. But the opinions of others are meaningless to Amren; he has always trusted his inner voices. He joined the resistance against Valdis, for instance, long before people knew it was necessary. The accuracy of his arrows and his complete lack of fear have made him a priceless comrade and a fearsome foe on the battlefield. But his private life is a bit more mysterious. He suffers from tremendous headaches and accompanying visions. While second sight is common among Elves, it is much stronger in Amren's family, and particularly strong in Amren himself. The visions themselves, though, are sometimes disturbing. There are times when he would prefer blissful ignorance. He takes comfort in the handful of kindred spirits he has found in his travels, like Lothar the Half-Giant. Amren has also always admired Finala but has never been able to approach her as more than a friend. Maybe someday he'll be able to speak as freely of his emotions as he does of his visions. Found in Act 2, at the inn. Finala - the famous Elven engineer of Aman'lu, has a reputation as a perfectionist. While this is not strictly true, she has set very high standards for herself and expects the same of others. If you can endure her sometimes prickly personality, though, you will reap the rewards of a sparkling mind. She is a true mechanical genius; if anyone has a problem fixing an object, it is to Finala they turn for a solution. Long before the Morden joined the mercenary forces of Valdis, Finala held them in contempt for the ruffians they are. Now that all of Aranna seems to be in conflict with them, she is confident she can outwit the plans of their generals, not that she would try to take them on her own - she's far too practical for that. But if Finala were in your raiding party, you would certainly rely on her for your next strategic move. For all her impatience, Finala has a warm and caring heart. You won't always see it during crisis, but only because she puts first things first. She knows the best way to show her friendship is to help her friends survive. Found in Act 2, chapter 2. Evangeline - Princess Evangeline, from the Northern Reaches, is a strong-willed woman who speaks with authority. But this gifted regent is also full of surprises. She resists the formality of royalty. If called "Princess," she's likely to insist that you call her Eva. Her personality is mercurial and demanding. This is not to say she's self-centred, however. If she is demanding of others, she is even more demanding of herself. In fact, no one in Aranna is more fiercely loyal to her friends. Her talent as a leader depends on her ability to see and appreciate other people's abilities, and she’s very good at combining her talents with theirs. She’s also extremely creative and inventive. Nothing stops her once she’s made up her mind. But she can also be willful and quick to anger, especially when someone is being dense. The other key to her success is that she’s a master strategist. In a combat situation, she can analyse the logistics with frightening speed and announce the correct course of action before you know what’s happening. It's no surprise that people around her just wind up following orders; her orders are usually correct. Found in Act 2, Chapter 6. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pets [DS.12.02] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dark/Light Naiad ---------------- Cost: 1375 Gold Class: Nature Mage Weapon: Duskbeam (Nature Magic, ranged spell) Spell: Fade Wounds (Chain heal) Power: Arboreal Rejuvenation (Heals party members instantly) Emanation: Regeneration (+200% health regeneration rate) Dire Wolf --------- Cost: 500 Gold Class: Fighter Weapon: Bite (Melee attack) Spell: n/a Power: Furious Howl (Cone-effect sonic damage) Emanation: Vicious Counter (60% physical damage reflected to enemy) Fire Elemental -------------- Cost: 1000 Gold Class: Combat Mage Weapon: Firestrike (Combat Magic, ranged spell) Spell: n/a Power: Inferno (Cone area damage) Emanation: Fire Resistance (+40% fire resistance, +8% magic damage) Ice Elemental ------------- Cost: 500 Gold Class: Nature Mage Weapon: Icestrike (Nature Magic, ranged spell) Spell: n/a Power: Freezing Aura (Damage and freeze nearby enemies) Emanation: Ice resistance (+40% ice resistance, +150% mana regeneration) Lap Dragon ---------- Cost: 2250 Gold Class: Nature Mage Weapon: Dragon Fire (Nature Magic, ranged spell) Spell: Dragon Scales (Protects from Curses, increases Lightning/Death Resistances by 60% and Power Recharge Rate by 90%) Emanation: Dragon Vitality (+34 Dexterity, +22 Strength, +21 Intelligence) Mythrilhorn ----------- Cost: 1750 Gold Class: Fighter Weapon: Claw Strike (Melee attack) Spell: N/A Power: Enrage (Gets enemy attention, like a Provoke) Emanation: Defence Aura (+12% Armor) Necrolithid ----------- Cost: 2250 Gold Class: Combat Mage Weapon: Deathstrike (Combat Magic, ranged spell) Spell: Dissolution (Reduce armour and make vulnerable to Death and Ice Magic) Power: Decompose (Dead bodies heal party members) Emanation: Mana Steal (+10% mana stolen) Pack Mule --------- Cost: 300 Gold Class: Fighter Weapon: Kick (Melee attack) Spell: n/a Power: Staggering Kick (Shockwave + stun target) Emanation: Reveal Treasure (Opens chests and breaks containers around the mule) Scorpion Queen -------------- Cost: 350 Gold Class: Ranger Weapon: Scorpion Sting (Ranged attack) Spell: n/a Power: Explosive Sting (Area damage) Emanation: Evasion Aura (+20% chance to avoid attacks) ============================================================================== Cheats and Secrets [DS.13.01] ============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Unlocking Higher Difficulties [DS.13.02] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Not a real secret, but whatever ;p To unlock a higher difficulty, you need to finish the game on an easier difficulty. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Infinite Resurrection Scrolls [DS.13.03] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In Act 1, chapter 1, you'll come to a room with a few wounded Morden and a closet.

A: Everything that does not involve leaving through the south gate. Q: Once I saved, and reload, I end up in town! A: Yes, lovely, isn't it? It's to make the game a bit harder. Q: Pet or human as party member? A: That's up to you. Human can do unique stuff (like how Finala can fix stuff), plus they open unique quests. Q: In Act 1, there are two areas I can't seem to visit. One if a high cliff, the other one is a wall that blocks the path. How do I get there? A: In Act 2 you'll find a party member who can fix things. That way, in the Kithraya cave, you can fix the elevator and go there. Q: There is some guy called "???" that's level 100 running around. What to do? A: Simply hit it as much as you can. You'll get a mysterious stone once you killed it. It won't even be in the room for 10 seconds though, so hurry up (you probably should be around level 35, and use full powers on him) with it. He'll also steal rare drops. Q: The innkepper won't let me register a 5th slot, and says something about me needing to be a Veteran. What's that all about? A: Open up the game, select Single Player (No, not Continue), then your hero and look at the difficulty screen. Veteran is the second difficulty, so you would need to finish the game before you can get a 5th character with you. ============================================================================== Conclusion [DS.15.01] ============================================================================== I hope you enjoyed our guide, since we put a lot of work in it.
