Ineffable Wingbolt Milla Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I don't mean the crazy guy north of Formello. I mean the quest from the Job Board in Fort Monastery- find the dead necromancer south of Fort M. and kill him again. But I still haven't found him. Anyone know where I should look? Also, is it possible to complete the rat tails quest for Captain Graham if you killed alot of the actual rats before getting the quest?

Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I believe you mean Harko. He's in a locked crypt under the Goblin Lair (the one south of Fort Monastery). Sadly, you can only start collecting rat tails after getting that quest. After all, why would you bother if you didn't have the quest?

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 It's still quite possible to complete the quest, though. Rats will reappear in storerooms periodically, so check them more than once. You'll get the tails you need eventually. —Alorael, who got very bored of rat tail loops around Formello.

Ineffable Wingbolt Milla Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 @Ephesos- I have a habit from my Avernum/Exile days where I'd case the outside of the town and map the surrounding area before entering the town. I'm a fanatic for filling out the auto map. It just doesn't feel right until it's whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I know what you mean, and I have the same problem too. (Problem? Problem? What problem? I can stop any time I want to!) I just meant: Why would anyone think to collect the tails from dead rats unless explicitly told to do so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Milla Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 I meant I was killing anything that got in my way while I was mapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 It's funny that your adventurers don't stop collecting body parts until the quest is completed, even if the appropriate number has been reached. Why does my party need five mottled bat wings when Lark only wants three? Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 That's true. They run around picking up trash, plates, and other worthless objects just so they can dump them in one central location. But not nearly so obsessive-compulsive as my shapers, guardians, and agents. They arrange the worthless items so that there are ten of the same item in each pile and nineteen piles in a cleared section. At least my party in Avernum dumps all the worthless items outside where they are lost forever. This is why it takes Dikiyoba two to four months to play through any game.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 My OCD isn't that bad yet. Some items like red lamps (value 3) and thread (value 5) will stack so like food does so you can maximize money when selling them. I just leave the rest for now.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Sticky Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Was it just me, or do you not actually need 10 rat tails for the quest? I took 8 to him and he ended the quest. Oh, and for the question, Hrickis is in the very north-east of the cave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 The question had already been answered, and it was specifically mentioned that it wasn't Hrickis... just so you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Walter Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Actually he was underground one map square south of the goblin lair. As for the rats, there actually are fewer than 10 places where they can appear, so you have to visit them multiple times to get enough tails.
