You can find all the items you need around actually.
First weight is easy since it's a vase, 2nd is also easy since it's a heavy barrel, 3rd you need to go find the bucket that's kinda "hidden" behind a secret door with a switch and 4th you just drop a book or a letter you loot in that room too I forgot which it was. Maybe both but anyway when I did it the 2nd time I had no trouble with it just dropping stuff I found in the room to the north with the bucket.
You can
use multiple items

The gate in the faery realm for finding the white witch quest. I am near the spike gate just before the winter area. I assume it's similar to the first gate but I can't find the fucking switch on the ground anywhere
To be fair the tombstone did warn you.

There's 2 gates, north one is opened from the other side, you need to go to the southern gate(past the sentient sentinel that drops ice on the ground, switch is up the hill to the right that's overlooking the gate.
Any info on the number of star stones I should have by the end of Cyseal? Are any missable?
Thanks

the Bloodstone from Pontius Pirate which you may not want to use just yet.
Ah, thank you. I do have the

Few questions
1) Can I have two summons at once if they're from different characters?
2) Is there any point at all to using a staff instead of a sword, if you can use spells anyway?
3) Why can't I equip 2 different one-hand weapons?
4) How do you use the blank skillbooks?
5) Is it normal to have not found a single belt at Level 7?

Every character gets one summon, so yes. You can raise an army before going into battle.
Staff lets you use the magic missile skill every character gets, which is a generic ranged magic attack.
No dual wielding in this game.
Blank Book + Spell Scroll = Spell Book for that Spell, requires crafting 5
Gear is entirely random so it's totally possible. Crafters can make some cheap belts to tide you over until you find a good replacement. Check all vendors as well, I'd be really surprised if not a single one of them carry belts for your characters.

The dual wielding thing is weird, since it doesn't blank out the other hand in the equipment screen
Struggling to get Madora using a good weapon, stuck on 8 Strength and all the good stuff I have needs 9
Not entirely sure how the levelling up works, what levels do you get a base stat at?

You'll very soon run into a quest that (optionally) needs one. You'll find more eventually but might as well use that one! You still get the star stone benefit for using it in a quest.
1. Each party member can have one active summon.
2. Stat modifiers. And weapons have skill requirements.
3. Larian didn't include dual handed fighting as it would require a whole new skill tree and animation set.
4. Use crafting to combine a scroll and skill book.
5. I would worry if this continued when you were level 10+.
that's because you can equip a shield. you need strength for it though, if you go dex with daggers you probably won't use it.
you get ability points every level, stats and talent points every 2-3 levels.
I did the one with 5 and 1 since you get items from there but I couldn't find that barrel and bucket with 7.5 and 1.5-2, so I just tried to add items to the whole thing but the weight didn't match. guess I had to explore better
but with the Rot on me I didn't like too much that idea. (I only discovered later that you can actually heal while having Rot and that you don't even die from it since it leaves you with 1 hp)
Larian released the game with the Global Chat functionality (I think it was originally implemented in beta phase, to aid in obtaining player feedback), then a bunch of noisy kids used it to talk nasty, hateful shit. Larian disabled it a few days after release. They said they'll reactivate it when/if they can get a decent obscenity filter going.
The in-game DLC is simply some kooky kickstarter stuff, completely unimportant. A magical item that allows you to turn items into gold versions, so they sell for a little bit more. And a piece of comedic talking underwear that doesn't really talk all that much. If you buy the deluxe version, only do so for the free older games and the (excellent!) soundtrack.
When Larian do get around to DLC, it'll be more in the form of large expansion pack type stuff. They've said they don't have plans for little bits of paid DLC here and there.

Is there an option to rebuild your characters/party?

Great, I've got a bug that means I can't read pieces of parchment
edit: Seems that they're blank and Larian overlooked the fact that they shouldn't be marked 'Use to read'
Think my sheep sidequest is glitched though, never had the option of confronting

Around level 16 or so you get enough blood stones to open a portal that gives you the ability to rebuild your character for 1000 gold.
The downside is that you lose all trained skills so you gotta hunt down spell books all over. Some spells like whirlwind don't even have more than one spell book.
Yes, I got it around level ten. But! Doing so requires you forget all of you skills/spells. So if you want to go down that route, plan ahead and stock up skill books to replace those you'll lose. It might be expensive to buy all those books...
You might be better off rerolling, you can cook through the early stuff if you know the critical path and you're experienced with battling.
I used a TV as a monitor replacement and it was fine. But your question is ambiguous. Are you asking relative to typical television viewing distances?

That's fantastic, good for them (and good that Sacred 3 has sunk without trace). Have Larian released any updates on sales figures, do you/ anyone know? Last I heard it was at around 200K, I think, which fit in nicely at the time with the concurrent players: total sales ratio for new releases at about 1:10.

At the same time, depending on how you've been playing you might already be swimming in gold at that level and have nothing to spend it on. I stopped looting most stuff around lvl 13 or 14 cause I put 2pts in Barter+1 from trait +2 from gear so with decent reputation(or giving NPCs like 1-5k gold to get 100 attitude) I could sell at full value which put me around 300k around that level and there's just not enough stuff to buy. I guess legendary items vendors later on are nice but since I'm playing Lone Wolf I don't need as much gear and I only need fairly specific stuff.
The biggest issue of the respec is some books are basically unique. Stuff like Barrage, Whirlwind, Burning Blaze, Lightning Bolt(actually 2 of these), Summon Wolf, Summon Undead(the crappy one though and unlike earth summons, the 2nd witchcraft summon is strictly better than the first in every situations), Freezing Wall, Eye Gouge and I believe Lava Core, Invulnerability and Terror(haven't seen those 3 yet but found an invuln scroll so made the book). Dust Devil also doesn't spawn anywhere I think, can only get at char creation which is quite annoying since Whirlwind is the other aoe and is unique, making aoe very weak on warriors if you respec to that. Some of these unique books you can find scrolls for too and make them yourself, like Summon Wolf and Summon Undead are very easy to get before you find the books.
Also not sure how it works with Tenebrium if you keep that or not.

Can't you just switch to their inventory and repair there? Arrows next to the character name on the left side of the vendor window lets you rotate which character is active and the 2nd filter on items is Equipped items, then I guess repair, might need money on every char though.
Ah, you must have gone through the Immaculate quest line. Head to the white witch's hut to see the Lv 10-12 enemies.

Playing on my 40 inch LED / 1080p and it's just fine. If you are very far away some of the text can blend together a little but it's not bad

Some question:I just fled from the Mangoth battle below altar because it was getting too serious over there >
Are those guys waiting in that room until I go back? I however managed to steal the blood and the book.
If you have the items, you probably don't have to fight them, but yeah they'd be waiting in there until you come back.
I figured out that
if I shot her with a poison gas arrow before even talking to her then she doesn't summon anything.
The fight was super easy after that.....at level 4/5.
Just change the resolution if you can't read it.

Silverglen end question:
I have Leandra's blood and created the spell to remove Death Knight invunerability. Do I have to go back and wreck the death knights I originally fled from or should I just move on to Hunter's Edge?

Anyone know where I can recruit a Ranger? I'm pretty early in the game, got distracted stealing paintings and selling them, lol.
I see, in your case, I think some of the text will be too small outside of dropping the resolution.
Continue with the murder investigation and you will unlock access to henchmen.

After nearly 80 hrs, I'm at level 21 and about to hit the point of no return for the final fight.
Strangely I don't want this game to end so I've been playing less and less the last few days hoping to make the game longer. I think I'll run around a little bit more and clean up everything before I do the final battle.
