Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I've been whacking away at this guy Hrickis for about half an hour now, and the last sliver of his health refuses to go away. Before I waste any more time on this jerk, can someone please tell me how to kill him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 I found another thread where someone has had the same problem. He has teleported twice, and is now in the lower circle with a sliver of health left, but he will not teleport again to his sanctum. The other thread had no solution. Any suggestions? My last archived save is from way before I killed the drake and his minions upstairs, so I'm not doing that all over again. It sounds like there is a broken script at work, here. There must be a way to fix this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Fael Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 You've probably encountered a bug. See http://www.ironycentral.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=191154#Post191154 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Fael Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I think the solution was to leave, let him restore himself to full health, and try again, being more careful of the damage thresholds next time. Don't know if that works, but if their theory of what's happening is correct, it should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 So far, he has not healed himself, but I'll wait longer and try again. This should probably be fixed in the next update, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast *i Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I would recommend e-mailing Jeff about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Go back to an earlier save if you have one from just before this fight or maybe your autosave. This is a bug that happens when the script gets jumped past the next part because of excess damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 As I said, that would require me to fight the drake and his horde again, which I am not going to do. If I cannot solve the problem, then I will just leave this quest unfinished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan jlsgaladriel Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 It's annoying, but it won't mess up the rest of your game. It's definitely not a requirement for any core quests, and I don't believe it's even a requirement for any other side quests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 This will be fixed in v1.0.2. In the meantime, just leave the area, use a portal (to force the area to be reloaded), return, and try the fight again. Damage Hirickis more slowly. Killing the drake and horde upstairs again is entirely unnecessary. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted January 1, 2010 Author Share Posted January 1, 2010 Thanks Jeff. Hirickis lives no more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chittering Clawbug scottk Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Could you cast a heal spell on him to get his life back up a bit so that it trips whatever trigger didn't fire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 You can't cast heal spells on enemies. However I think mass heal works on charmed enemies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
