Troglo/Giant Quests
Bruce Mitchell replied to Bruce Mitchell's topic in Avernum Trilogy (2011-2018 Remastered Versions)
Spoilers ahead... For the record:- This thread refers to A3. Despite not being able to deal with Mayor Knight, I have found today that I am still able to access the SE temple of Grindstone Cavern. This was with help from this thread. This gave me the map to the Concelaed Tunnel. I could then open the tunnel between the Troglos and Giants, which may help in the Ending. So, although the quests seem closed from the mayors or diplomatic route, the end result (troglo-giant war restarted) may still be attained. -
A3: Under Tower of Zkal

Okay I get it:- Try and enter NE portal, get thrown back and disoriented. Try again to enter NE portal, get thrown back and disoriented. Try and enter SE portal, get thrown back and disoriented. Try and enter NE portal, and you are teleported to a new location in the lower level of the Tower of Zkal. Many thanks for your help! -

Do you and the walkthrough mean the NE portal in the lower level room (where the 5 portals are)? If so, it isn't working. Or do you mean on the ground floor level? -

Troglo/Giant Quests
Bruce Mitchell posted a topic in Avernum Trilogy (2011-2018 Remastered Versions)
Two questions regarding the Troglo and Giant Quests:- Troglo Quest So I got the message from Mayor Knight to parlay with the Troglo King. When I was in the throne room, I felt like going walkabout, and the troglos didn't like this and attacked me. So, there is a dead king and I am told peace with the troglos is unlikely. Found the evil priest and slayed that troglo too. Return to Sharimik, but Mayor Knight keeps asking me for proof for talking to the King. Obviously, I can't provide proof. I return to Troglo Castle in hope that King may have somehow resurrected, but nothing going. So, it seems that quest is closed, unless reload from earlier saves? Giant Quest Moving on to the Giant Quest, it seems because Troglo Quest is incomplete, I can't get Giant Quest from Dervish Bruskrud in Lorelei. This is despite having rescued all his imprisoned-by-the-giants soldiers and their personal possessions. So, it seems that this quest is also closed? -
Thank you for Avadon 3, it's been great fun. I tried to get the new version from here by re-downloading the demo. I installed it and used my old files. I am near the end. The files open up fine. I am in Fort Foresight. But when I try to travel to another area, it says Demo Only. How do I get it to recognise I have bought it?

Hi there, Kelandon and other old timers! I think people could get quite a bit lower than level 17, especially if they have the patience to nail the art of looting without killing (money was generally low, so this strategy had to be done a bit). Invade, distract, loot, run (and shadow step)! Part of the advice for the Corruption (run!) became useful. Also, most useful is the use of stairs (etc) to handle enemies, and going out of combat to miraculously transport and resurrect characters. Randomizer, that must have been disappointing to get so far and have to capitulate. What was so difficult about the last boss fight in the Corruption (as a singleton on torment)?

Inspired by this thread, I gave this a go at 'casual'. Some of it was as hard or harder than playing on 'torment', especially in the early stages! I tried to do it as a singleton initially, but had to use a party inside Monitor Base D. The Fort Foresight zone endgame was overcome by using a shadow walker's 'shadowstep' and speed potions. My character and party were level 17 on completion, well below the level 30 cap.

I've just completed the game but don't remember feeding a drake. Where is this hungry drake? -
Thanks for this scenario, Bain. A good quality enjoyable small scenario!
