Kyshakk Koan BenS Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I cannot catch these green buggers for the life of me, and I have 19 accumulated points of Nature Lore in the party! The hint book said you needed "8", and even if that was a typo and supposed to be "18", it's not working. Unless--god forbid--a single PC needs a total of 8 (shudder) Nature Lore?

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 It should be a combined level 8 or 9 in Nature Lore. If you have enough when you take the attack option they automatically die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan BenS Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Assuming you meant "combined" as I thought you did, split 4-ways, then it's definitely a bug, b/c I have 19 points in all. I'll report it as a bug, thanks. Edited February 18, 2018 by BenS duplicate words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan BenS Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Update: this is weird as heck, but swinging through the area again, I was now easily able to catch/kill the unicorns. I did not add anymore Nature Lore since my earlier post! Glad it resolved itself, but I can't explain why it happened in the 1st place.

Garrulous Glaahk Minion Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I had a similar experience where I was first unable to catch the unicorns with Nature Lore 12-13, but was later able to hunt them down without having increased my Nature Lore (either by skill points or items). I suppose your level might affect it somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Dorgath Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Someone in this thread said they need to be "occupied"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't notice anything different in the dialog box when I ran into them to suggest otherwise. Maybe I didn't pay close enough attention?

Tenderfoot Thahd Coach Lee Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I can't catch them either, and I edited my Nature Lore up to 16. Do you have to be Level 30 or something? I'm at 29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 It should be strictly a Nature Lore check and much lower than you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Toast Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I can't catch any of these guys either and I have 18 Nature Lore and the party is level 32... can the person who said they need to be "occupied" please spell out what you need to do, for the slow among us? Because I'm not getting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Electrons are Eigenmetric Solitons Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) It was a sick twisted joke. Don't follow me into the abyss if you value your sanity. But maybe you've already left it at the door? I honestly don't know what the bug is or even if it's a bug because I'm having the same issue. How many plagues have you finished?

Curious Artila Toast Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 All up to and including the golems. I've just trashed the alien beast factory, actually, but I haven't swung back through Recalcitrant Unicorn Valley since then. I'll give it a shot later.

Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 This is indeed a bug. We were checking FIrst Aid, not Nature Lore. fixed in v102. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyshakk Koan Kennedy Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 It was kind of disappointing that when you catch the unicorns that you couldn't take their horns to turn in down at Krizsan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk ĐªгŦĦ Єяŋϊε Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I just want to know why Jeff hates unicorns so much. I'll never forget the first time I met them in exile 3 and read their description. I had never heard them described as anything other than mysterious and friendly.

Unflappable Drayk Edgwyn Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I suspect it was a perverse reaction to all of the positiveness in every other fantasy about unicorns. Just like Spiders are almost always negative except Jeff had to have the GIFTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I made the unicorns that way in 1997 because I thought it would be funny. My opinion on that matter has not changed in the intervening 20 years. ĐªгŦĦ Єяŋϊε and fractalnavel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora MrFreeze Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Hello there, I am playing the game in 2023 (V1.03) and have the same Issue. Nature Lore is >15 and First Aid is 8. Do I need to get more or something completely different to hunt these pesty Unicorns down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
