Minor DLC side quests Spoilers:

Are these quests seriously nothing more than location markers that you trigger, or something, and then you get a mark? Seriously?! And these were on the disc, yet still Capcom decided to take money for them?

......................................

Minor spoilers about ingame side qust:

Wow, weird! I was doing a side quest with Symone, the one where you have to escort her about town. And as we were walking around the fountain, I thought it'd be fun to pick her up -- but as soon as I clicked the button, a guard came up and threw me in jail.

(A tip about jail, incase you didn't already know: if you have a skeleton key, even before you get arrested, you can just unlock the prison door. And if you go straight to the left at first, there's a chest with a Skeleton key there (Gotten it twice now, after locking myself out twice.). Then, to get out, you just have to go to the bottom of the prison hallway, and take the door to the right (If running from the chest with the skeleton key.). Use another skeleton key here, and then follow the hallway system out (It's a sewerish area.)

OMG Schwabe/Tenji! Thanks for gifting my Pawn with the Talarian White staff - it is awesome! =D

I'm getting destroyed by the two cockatrice room in the everfall. Should I just go to new game+ and try again once I'm higher level?

You can just skip it. I mean, you don't have to do everything there you can skip it and farm other rooms.

 

[Raptomex]

I've been taking the game real slow and enjoying every minute of it. I kind of wish there was more stat tracking (how many kills, pawns lost, pawns hired, etc.) but that's just a personal preference not really a complaint. The only enemy I haven't been able to take on was

some dragon in the woods I found

Aww... where can I find a Metal Golem? I'll bring it to justice for you.

 

[burgerdog]

What in the world. Decided to check on the ur dragon and he landed with 0% health. Shot it a few times and got the killing blow.

Call me dumb but what exactly is this Ur-Dragon stuff? I've been taking the game slow.

The river next to the capital, past the first waterfall near some sulfur saurians. Look in the fish pools thingies.

man i've been all up over this area, like, 30 times in every pool, barrel, and enemy in the vicinity. This shit is annoying :<

 

[Sir Garbageman]

About to start the game. Aiming to make my main toon a mystic knight, should i go with a strider or a warrior for my main pawn?

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Second Ur-Dragon online felled for me!

Got:

Angel's Fist (Hammer)
Dwells-in-Light (Longsword)
Talarian White (Archistaff)
Heaven's Key (Daggers)
Beowulf Mask
Abyssinal armor set
20 Wakestones

All you fuckers in post-game are pissing me off. I want to join you but I don't want to rush, either.

I found TWO in one playthrough, helped in NG+

[Myriadis]

I just tried the demo. That prologue part where you fight that Chimera or whatever was just alright, but the other part, where you fight in the open is really amazing.

Good news: Most of the battles in the game take place in such wide-open areas. Fighting a chimera in an open woodland is so much better than fighting it in that cramped dungeon.

Any way to make money in this game? I'm only at Gran Soren.

Quests. I made my first 100,000 doing escort quests and the like. A lot of them have expensive rewards that you can sell if you don't want them. Look for quests that reward you with golden weapons, for example.

 

[Slayven]

Damn those invisible Kenyan lizardman kicked my ass.


Anyone seen any rats?

 

[bob_arctor]

Finally made it Gran Soren! Today was the first time I've been able to put in some time and what a difference it made for me. I had traveled at night to meet Mercedes and damn bandits are a real pain in the ass, specifically the fighter/tank dudes. I'm so happy now to just upgrade my gear. My poor Mage pawn (Morrigan) kept getting killed with the quickness out in the wild. And hell, even the escort mission to Gran Soren was fun. That shit never happens!

[Augemitbutter]

how does stealing work in this game? i don't get any real feedback. maybe i'm using it wrong and it's just a solo skill?

 

[GotchaForce]

So frustrated, I've loved the game the 75 hours I've put into it but I'm trying to do everything. I have the guide but wish there was a clear list of what you have to do for the Hero achievement. I went through the whole quest list and was checking stuff off with a pen as I went but I think I've gone past what I can do with Maul (dealt with Pike in Cassardis but he won't give me a quest). Certain quests go away if you do certain things and I'm on my second play through and pretty sure I just fucked myself over

 

[Grisby]

I'm using the strider skill master thief and its only worked once. I don't know if there's anything special I have to do.

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

So the whole getting arrested thing? Anybody know what that was about? Seemed completely random and inconsequential.

 

[The Last Wizard]

A tip for some people, don't arrest fournival you'll pay in post game

 

[Augemitbutter]

same here. i've used rank 1 and 2, but it's not working or i just don't know when it does work.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

I use Master Thief on any wandering pawn I find. It worked everytime and I usually got some nice loot. A gold sword, for example.

It also works better/has a higher chance when enemies are blinded, paralyzed, or your pawns are holding them, IIRC.

you need to get up in dat heart area and use 1000 kisses. it'll shorten the fight by a few minutes.

I usually just throw them off cliffs.

My pawn finally learned some expressions. I don't know how but its neat.

 

[Clear]

Try snaring enemies first. I don't think it works if the enemy is actively trying to attack.

 

[Schwabe]

i saw him in his mansion, but as soon as i entered with a bunch of guards behind me, he ran away...

got Ur-Dragen Gen 39 for my 6th kill... 10million trophy and 4,5 million cash now and a bunch of stuff to sell in the inventory... i think tomorrow i will go into ng+ ...

yes, i know now. but at the first wyvern i was a little bit confused O,o try the one at bluemoon tower...

Have you checked his mansion?

Do you have all that money from selling the wakestones?

 

[The Grim Heaper]

How cruel. ):

 

[Schwabe]

wakestones and dat ur-dragon loot. yes. and i didn't even sell anything... got a bunch of weapons to try and some nice shields for mystic knight action =)

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

I checked and he wasn't here. I did get greeted by the

castle goons

and was

attacked - those guys are pretty damn strong.

 

[Augemitbutter]

didn't know it would work on pawns. will try that and ensnare next time!

Fournival also sells ferrystones at half price too. I always made sure to stock up in between quests.

 

[Jac_Solar]

Is the 'cockatrice' room somewhere in the dungeon you can only access by pulling the 2nd lever, for example? Cause when I did the first quest, which required pulling one of the levers that opens or shuts various doors, I didn't find any cockatrice.. I fought the Ogre, the snake like things and I think some zombies. Is there significantly more content than this in there? Or just 2 cockatrice?

 

[joe2187]

We should have a list of all the Gaffers pawns, wouldn't mind renting out some lower level pawns to help out and give items away, I believe if you equip a pawn with some armor or clothing it travels back with them. I've went through so many dungeons and caves I got tons of extra armour and items I dont know what to do with.

What dungeon are you in? the cockatrice seams to only spawn in Soulflayer canyon to my knowledge.
