Curious Artila Shadow Bunny Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I inadvertently left the zone in between talking to Watcher Ibu and killing the zephyr, result being that he was dead by the time I got back to the tower. Also, I drank from the cauldron downstairs in that tower, thinking it might be one of those vitality-restoring drinks, but a couple minutes later realized I'd been warned repeatedly not to drink anything in The Corruption. I have another save file from an hour or so previously, and am considering reloading from there to fix those mistakes. I was wondering if anyone who's played later in the game could give me a yes/no answer about whether those two things will make enough of a difference to bother redoing that much game.

Unflappable Drayk Edgwyn Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I am only a little farther along then you are. After killing the zephyr I returned the essence to Watcher Ibu and Wyetta gave out the hint that Miranda was in Base D. I would check to see if you can get into the Base D back door. If you can't, I would definitely reload. I do not think that the basin in the tower does anything, but there is one a little later on that is very bad to drink from.

Understated Ur-Drakon Sudanna Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What does that one later on do, exactly? I'm at that point and paralyzed by indecision. It's obviously a terrible idea but I keep wondering if it'll end up as something cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Edgwyn Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 According to Randomizer's Synergizer's Item List, the basin inside monitor base D "-3% bonus on all abilities on the top". I choose to believe him/them and have not tried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish Shogo Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 If the description you get after drinking from it is accurate . . . It makes you slightly more powerful while in the corruption. Perhaps less powerful outside of the corruption? I saved right before drinking just to see what would happen . . . So it was pretty easy to reload to before I drank. Also . . . There's two such basins that ask "Do you really want to drink this?" Whether or not you drink from none, one, or both has an effect on the ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Shadow Bunny Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Okay, so the basin's probably not a big deal. I feel bad about letting Ibu die, but assuming he doesn't appear again it's probably not worth replaying a whole zone to save him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 is Watcher Ibu relevant? Ibu had died before I got back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I don't think he actually matters for any future quests. If you want to save him, you have to defeat the zephyr and return to him without leaving the map area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I killed Zephyr and collected loot and returned to them but Ibu had died. Did you leave the area after seeing Ibu but before fighting the zephyr? That will also kill him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Did you leave the area after seeing Ibu but before fighting the zephyr? That will also kill him. Nope since I leave area only to replenish vitality and I had full vitality at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
