Avernum 3: Uper Avernum island

[ohbejuan]

There is an island in upper Avernum you can only get to via a boat. When you go there a little old woman says you are cute and says she not trades with more mature warriors. Does she have anything to trade? I go back here periodically (I am not level 30) and always get the same answer. What do I need to do to get here to trade with me. 

 

Thanks!

You need to end 3 plagues to get her to sell elixirs at exorbitant prices. Some are worth it.

But I took care of slimes, roaches, and golems.

Hello ohbejuan,

 

I'm not entirely sure about this, but I suspect the problem is the order in which you've dealt with the plagues. The golem plague is optional, and behaves a little differently from the others. While the game is an open one, it's generally arranged with the expectation that the player will deal with the plagues in a particular order. It sounds like, for the tower, the golem plague 'doesn't count'.

You'll need to deal with the troglodyte/giant plagues before you can enter the tower. On the upside, since you've dealt with the golems already, your party should be able to breeze through them!

I recall in the original version you needed a certain amount of reputation, not sure if they changed it in the remake
