Thosha swears To be fair I probably will only post a temporary working version pretty soon since the best results for Vhala's quest are pretty easy to get (with the stats we have). It is an inelegant solution but without knowing more I don't want to put requirements to play again from a certain point (which would be 10h+ at least) just for another temporary solution that will most likely change again. I'd like to get the most possible support from all countries, but there is quite a bit still unknown about some variables before I can do that (so again it is postponed until after the gale's full release).
cgh Thosha Excellent, Thosha. The further forward we progress in the game the greater seem to be the unknowns. Your work here is much appreciated. Without it, I suspect the game would have become unplayable in its sheer complexity.
Thosha cgh There were max and raphael's guide before mine (albeit not really optimized) and after me came Grim8P's guide (which is quite a new guide to be fair). Now Grim and me are practically synced up on choices and he helped we get back into it after my long break (doing individual updates can make you lose sight of the bigger picture)
Thosha cgh I can copy his style, however, technically Fulminato's is still shorter so I'll keep that one (but make it more clear with what to interact)
swears Thosha No worries. I always assumed there'd be a back tracking at minimum to best use the pron we've been hoarding and possibly to use up the Sx though obviously we've been able to get this far without the best weapons and armor along the way. Glad you've been keeping tabs on our various hidden stats along the way. The country scores required for Vhala's best score seem difficult especially in the newer lands though perhaps a few investments would change that. Either way no reason for you to have to test too far back if you might just have to do it again once the variables for the final battle come out
Thosha I've updated the walkthrough to include Vhala's quest, no backtracking required for best results, the threshholds were lower than I initially thought
cgh Thosha In the walkthrough for Vhala's Quest, it states the following: "Vhala Armour Leave the projection room Go to Renthor Wilds (central building) and talk to Lynine[222], "Yes", "Arcane Formation"[223], "Crystal of Stability"" My problem here is that when I talk to Lynine there's no choicce here. It only takes an Arcane formation and gives you the Divine Branch.
swears Small correction. During Riala's quest during trip 4, you can't get to "H" and "F" without clearing "L" (though if you've been paying attention during the quest, it's not hard to figure out)
Thosha cgh I am not very familiar with that interaction nor did I find any information on the wiki, I didn't even know she could have a forced trade, she does have the posibility to create a divine branch in the Nostalgic Home. Also from what I just read you get a second crystal of stability from Ivala's Crystal (it was changed). Hence you no longer need to trade it in.
cgh Thosha Thanks very much. I see my error. I have to talk to Lynine in Renthnor Wilds NOT the Ancestral Home. that makes a huge difference. Sorry for wasting your time because of my misreading a straightforward line.
swears Thosha I hadn't got to that part yet but I was wondering why you needed a 2nd Crystal of Stability after the one from the Incubus War. If we still have the extra Arcane Formation , a Liq Sex seems like a good idea so we can get all the Succubus custom stuff?
Thosha swears For sure, I just looked it up and it seems like you get a second one for freeing Ivala, which I didn't get ;( But good of you to point it out. I put a notice to warn people not to do the exchange if they already have a crystal of stability
swears Any idea yet what the Cloak of Gold in Megail's quest does? It doesn't look like it's listed anywhere in the playthrough or the Quest walkthrough or really anywhere in the wiki
Thosha swears nope, no clue. I don't think any triggers are available for it yet. Probably for the optional endgame dungeon if I had to guess (similar to Yarra's quest that it can alleviate some of the difficulty)
lostone2 swears As many other items like the Divine Branch, Wynn's staff, Final Potion or Crest of Nations they have no effects yet. I suppose that they will have an effect in the Final Dungeon. And they are listed in the wiki, in the Inventory items page.
cgh Thosha The walkthrough states: "The Final Potion Interact with the shining spot near the Potion Hermit (Sylvan region map, S) Interact with the shining spot in Renthor Wilds (NE) Interact with the shining spot near the Potion Hermit" I'm unable to find any shining spot in Rentor Wilds NE.
swears lostone2 Well that's a interesting page I don't think I've ever stumbled across, thanks. I generally use the "Tools" drop-down as a table of contents for the wiki but i have in the past found other pages that are similarly not listed there. Always another secret 🙂
cgh Thosha No. Robin's comment is "I think one more ought to do it." The ingredients I have are Pureflower and Arcane Drop. Do you know what the other one is?
