Going back to Cotra, you really needed a Recall Crystal, would cut the journey in half...

 

Demonslayer, you are looking for a forge where the sword can be re-forged.

 

 

Talk to Boutell in Fort Draco

 

 

 

Unlock Doors, level 3, you don't just find it someplace. You have to run around a bit, clear out a certain dungeon then commute between three towns.

 

 

Go to the gate NE of the Giant Castle

Open it, go north and get a boat. Travel to an island north of there. Make sure you are Enlightened before walking through an energy field or you will be dead. (Go to the island just west... )

Enter the tower, talk to Aydin about everything.

Report back to Erika, ask about assassinating King Hawthorne.

She will tell you the password for the statues.

Go to Almaria and talk to the statue in the SW part of the town. Statue will tell you the formula for Unlock Doors, level 3!

In Bargha you can sell stuff to Prynne the Healer.

(You missed an interesting hidden area in the Lair of Khoth.)

 

Bind Foe can be useful for immobilizing particularly annoying foes, like spellcasters, while you wipe out their fellow monsters.

(In A2 you really must start the game with this spell.)

You should have saved immediately after winning the fight in the main room, the Barracks, especially when it left you low on spell energy.

Can Wizards be immobilized with Bind Foe? No, not on a regular basis, they resist too much.

 

My first PC uses Alien Blade and Demonslayer, he has the Crystal Charm to defend against Basilisks.

 

When to save your game:

 

 

You will be to the north of the giant docks and you will see a message stating that the passageway ahead is blocked by a beautiful curtain of blue light. &&&

 

 

This has the potential to wipe out the whole party unless you know what to do.

"This has the potential to wipe out the whole party unless you know what to do."

Enlightenment is a state like Sanctuary or Hovering Feet, it only occurs a few times in the game. When the scroll icon disappears the state has worn off!

 

 

Drink at the pool, become Enlightened and head to the blue field pronto!

(Avernum 2 is different indeed, you will find far fewer level 3 spells in the demo part of the game. You will probably want Bind Foe at level 2 as soon as you can get it. Default starting party leaves a lot to be desired, you might do well to use Custom PCs.)
