Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I tried the search function. Nothing. I tried looking through the geneforge pages, nothing. Can someone tell me what zone and nest the tool is in geneforge one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think it's the Tribal Woods, but it's been years since I played GF1. The search function is useless for finding this type of information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I'm pretty late, but this question hasn't been answered, eo eh. The tool is in East Pentil (the zone with several spawners and a horde of cryoas) in a nest somewhere in the southwest quadrant of the zone. Be careful, because if you pick it up with another living tool in your inventory, it'll be lost forever. Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious Artila Bane of Rebels Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 In G1, The Xian Tool is in Pentil East. Look in the southwest quadrant in a nest, but don't pick up the tool. Drop all living tools you currently have, then right click on the Living tool in the nest to see if it weighs 0.0lbs. If it does, you now have an unlimited living tool.

Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 Dikiyoba already explained it, but thanks anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Lauren CW Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Hm. I have min-maxxed the crap out of every Geneforge game, spent hours in every strategy central before even beginning the game to plot out optimum... stuff. Never once heard of this Xian Tool.

Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Because its shown as a normal living tool, and doesn't do anything if you already have one or more tools, and most people don't know what they just picked up. Personaly, I think it was a bugged item, something wrong in the codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall A less presumptuous name. Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I'm not sure how a bug like that could have happened. It's most likely an easter egg intentionally placed by Jeff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Lauren CW Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 ^That. It's more his style. Reminds me of stuff like in Nethergate when you step in all 4 corners of the map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 It's an ordinary living tool with 0 charges. It's very easy to make a mistake like that given how many items Jeff has to place and alter the default charges of in each game. Plus, it disappears if combined with other living tools. That doesn't seem like the sort of thing that would happen with an intentional easter egg. Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall A less presumptuous name. Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 But why would the zero charges stay in your inventory and not disappear, either when picked up or when used the first time? I wonder, would it show up in the items script if it was intentionally placed? Or has Jeff ever commented on its existence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
