Each country that adds the help to the Task increase the VC in 1. Vhala Influence: can be used to increase the country score of any nation (10 or 5 points usually, depending of the country). Maximum value: 4 on the good path (It requires to spend 500,000 ProN to get help from Megail): +2 if Reputation Survived ON or +1 otherwise.

(from 1 to 5). You get VP by getting support from the various nations around the planet and other actions. The amount of support depends in most cases of the score of each country, but other factors that can help as well: Yhilin: you can increase Yhilin score (+5) by using Vhala Influence (-1).

Raiker

lostone2 Rewards:

VPs >= 99: Crest of Nations

From what I see, it's actually impossible to reach 99 VP even if all country scores are through the roof. Unless some of the fights are repeatable.

Thosha

lostone2 Great information, one inconsistency I've noticed so far is that with a 90 New givini country score you get +8 Vhala Point, not +7.
At 80 or less country score you still get a a +6 so that part is still accurate

LOLtohru

Whoa! Thanks for all this work. : )

lostone2

Potion's mini quest:

You need to have the following key items:

Deepstone
Arcane Drop
Ecstatic Drop
Pureflower

Visit the Hermit in the Sylvan Region. Visit the Last Output in the Wilgs and interact with the BK next to the Potion seller (top right). Visit the Hermit again and get the potion.

lostone2

Raiker I'm sure that I'm missing some sources of points. Right now my calculations give 89 VP.

Grim8P

I took a look through and only found one set of points that I think you missed.

Helvanna > Helvanna Cathedral. 1-4 depending on decisions.

lostone2

Grim8P Added, thanks. If I'm following the math correctly you can get as much as 8 VPs there but only in the New Religion path, if the switch Yelarel Blessing (that really doesn't ring a bell) is ON.

throwaway531

Hey, thanks for this. Been waiting for someone to dump the data from recent updates.

lostone2

throwaway531 You're welcome.

lostone2

Added the changes brought by version 0.73.2. There is a VP still pending. If anyone knows where I could find, please post it here.

lostone2

0.73.3 novelties:

Most of it are only available if you have invested in the Erosian smith (so they are available during the first Open World section of the last chapter)

New investment in the Palace (75,000 ProN, +5 Erosia)
Temple: new equipment for Ginasta: Blade of Erosia, new equipment for Hilstara: Ryoken Waraxe, new equipment for Uyae: 3 choices: Winter, Spring and Summer Gloves.

Also there is a now an option to create a Cloak of Gold for Megail after her quest is completed. It's another key item like the Divine Branch and it has no effects on the game yet.

Ripatti

Does anyone know if it matters how many steps you took to find Aram's old man and Yhilin's old woman, who are "Vhala: Yhilin Hunt" and "Vhala: Aram Hunt" in the savefile?

lostone2

Ripatti it doesn't matter at all, AFAIK.

lostone2

Thosha Thanks for the warning. I will use on the wiki guide.

Thosha When you choose to close you can get +3 VPs if all the nations in Arclent and an additional +2 if all the countries in the other countries support you.

Thosha

From what I tested there are some more VP point gains at the end (I did a save right before concluding and right after and compared the Vhala points). Also is there a point to getting more than 85 for the Crest of Nations?

Thosha

lostone2 But are there any other checks beyond the 85 for the crest?

lostone2

Thosha Not right now. I'm not sure if the VPs will have any influence in the Final Dungeon section.
