Fledgling Fyora Syff Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 While this isn't as technical as the other problems here, this is an in-game problem that seems not to have an in-game solution, including any uses of the Exile Editor I can see. My party used the Orb of Thralni to fly over a river to a small ledge, just east of the Crypt of Drath. However, there's a group of monsters in the narrow tunnel back to "land," and you can't fly over monsters. There are two other ledges I can get to, one north and one south, however neither allows me any option of flying elsewhere. Screenshot available upon request. Is there any known solution?

Easygoing Eyebeast *i Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Go do a bunch of other stuff until those monsters disappear and come back later? Most monsters like this, I suspect, were randomly generated. Also, this belongs in Exile Trilogy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Syff Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 That's the problem - There's no "other stuff" to do. I'm stuck in a dead-end, with the only way out blocked. My only options are pretty much either to rest until I starve, use the orb to dunk myself and die, or stop playing. A game-ending situation without an in-game solution sounds like a technical issue to me. Screenshot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan ef Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 There's space enough to walk a bit, and that's all that's needed. When you start moving, monsters move too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast *i Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Otherwise, I believe the character editor can help in these situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Aoslare Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I don't remember how E1 handles monster movement, but I don't think the gazer will sit there totally unmoving -- I imagine every so often it will move a square away. Moving to one of those other ledges should certainly get him to move. Maybe it's impossible, but I bet if you fool with it you can manage to escape.

Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Isn't there a little landing you can reach to the south, also? Even if not, those gazers should walk around a little if you walk around long enough, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Can't you use the editor to return the party to the start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I don't think the E1 character editor has that option - there's only leave town, which is not much use in this particular case. Unfortunately there's no Word of Recall spell in E1, either. However, having looked at that screenshot I see a not unfamiliar situation, which I've encountered myself and out of which I managed to get. I'm confident the eyebeast will move around if you wait. Try resting; you have plenty of food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I've been in similar situations many times before. Either sit there and wait, or move back and forth. The monster should move; when it does, spring into action and fly out of there. The only drawback is you'll probably have to fight the eyebeast to continue on.
