If you kill Gladwell before fulfilling some or any of his quests, will you gain access to the rest of his treasures or are they forfeit?

I'm at the end of the game and I still can't read the Spellbook in Solberg's East Tower, the one you get to by secret doorways. Is it acutally readable?

Can't you fulfill Shafrir's request for the Anama scrolls first, which he gives you copies of to hand out, and then give a copy to Gladwell. Or will Gladwell only accept the originals?

I stand corrected. Thanks for the advice.

Actually Riposte is very valuable. It has saved my characters from a ton of damage.

The lesser hit points in the more expensive poles are greatly offset by the extra free skill points they give just by equiping them. That's why they're more expensive. Imagine how many levels and the hard work involved to increase any one skill by 3 points or acquire a skill you don't have yet. You only get 5 points at every increase in level which become increasingly more difficult, and they have to be divided among all the skills. So it's better to use the more expensive poles even though their hit points are lower.

If one of your team is killed in a battle, does that character lose the points earned for that battle?

I got the correct directions for this puzzle, but I still can't get it to work. Is the North & South orientation different, because in one of the clues it said "2 orbs on the diagonal". Also, the SE sparkle is to be set to "no sparkles". Does that mean the lamp is completely empty or it has a bulb in it? Here are the supposed correct settings: NW orb green NE orb blue SW orb red SE orb none Thanks

Why are the pages being cleared in this forum. Last night there were six pages going back to at least November 16th, now there are only two this morning.

There is this monster in the Pit of Abomination that keeps replicating itself like red slimes . Is the only solution to be powerful enough to kill or severly damage the first one before it can duplicate too much?

Where is Pefko? He left a quest called "Empty the Cache" on a board and I don't know where he is. I've completed the quest. Thanks

I had the same problem. Don't look for SIGNS at mine entrances. Just look for POSTS which are not near any mines. They're wider at the base than the top. When you're near one it will say in the dialog area who it belongs to.

I've found every claim and tunnel from Harkin's Landing to Exodus but none of the claims were Tobias's. I found some claims with the names scratched off, are those his? Even so, I still must be missing one or more because the claims office doesn't acknowledge me yet. Anyway, I don't know where else to look. Please help.

I've looked everywhere for Tobias's mines that are supposed to be near Exodus and the closest I can come is the Three Tunnels Mine which is near Harkin's Landing, but I can't find any sign with his name on it except some that have been damaged & can't be read which might have been his, nor can I find his body if he's been killed. Can anyone help on this. Thanks

I found West and South towers in Solberg's Tower. You need Tool Use of 25 & 30 to open the doors which would take forever to get. I'm at 10 with some piercing gloves for a total of 12. Are these quest expected to be done much later in the game or have I missed something. (Had to use the editor).

I made the huge mistake of releasing the dragon in Harkin's Landing before I completed the quests for the town. Now I can't return because they all try to kill me. This means I lose out on the skill points for those completed quests. Is there any way to reverse this? The game has Character Editor, but not Game Editor like prior Avernum games? Also, I'm at Solberg's tower and I'm asked to go to the East and South towers to complete quests, but I can't find the tower entrances. The only stairs in the tower are to Solberg's quarters. Thanks

I think the mayor is in the bar or inn sitting at the table.

I have killed the demon upstairs in the Tower Colony, but their are areas up there I still can't access because of rock cave-ins. I can see a book behind a gate. I was thinking the area could be accessed from X's upstairs rooms with the doors that can't be picked, but that is just a guess on my part. Does any one know how to access those areas? Thanks

There is an area I can't find the route to in the area to Rentar's Keep. It's one level below and to the right side, but you can't get to it because of a gap. Has anyone noticed it and been able to find the way there? Thanks

I can't find the access to the final golem spire. I should be able to access it from inside the factory, but I can't find any door to it. Please help.

I'm playing the Demo of Avernum 3, and my Mage spell skill is at Level 10, but when I bought Level 1 spells of Lighting Spray, Far Sight and Create Illusions, which only require Level 6 spell skill, they are not highlighted for use in the Info window or represented in the Cast Mage Spell window. Is this because I'm using the demo, or some other problem?

At the Tower Colony upstairs in X's Tower are three locked doors. Is there any way to access them. Also, upstairs where you fought the demon there is an area beyond the rocks that you can't access. Do X's rooms lead there?

There is an area in Rentar Ihrno's Keep that I can't find a route too. It's one level down and to the far right. You can see it is separated from the tunnel above it by a small dark rectangle representing a chasm. I've accessed every tunnel, but can't find any way to this area. Would appreciate any help. Thanks

THANKS EVERYONE FOR HELP WITH THE MANGY WOLF. Does anyone know how to cancel a spell, such as you click fire, but then you decide you want to use Smite instead during battle. I used to know, but I forgot. Thank you again

Is there anyway I can help the sick wolf south of Fort Monastery? I've cast both a heal and cure spell on him, but it doesn't seem to help. Then I bought some fish from the guy farther down and set them next to the wolf, but nothing happened. Also, I have the Stability bauble, but I don't know what it does. Thanks
