Curious Artila Buzko Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I keep poking pylons with bare spots and getting a pain in my arm. I don't think I've found an explanation of what they are in-game. Could I get a hint about what they do? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 The pain is from doing them in the wrong order except for one that gives a prize if you have the right mechanics level. You probably aren't far enough in the game to find the first one in the correct order. good luck with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall alhoon Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Hmmm? I don't remember those pylons. Where are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably aren't far enough in the game to find the first one in the correct order. good luck with them. Hmm. I've found a few of them and am really not sure what order I'm supposed to follow. I've been bouncing around the island a fair bit and think I'm pretty far into the game - I just stole Spoiler Goettsch's Shaper Gloves and have picked up the entry and control batons. 3 minutes ago, alhoon said: Hmmm? I don't remember those pylons. Where are they? They're listed in the Atlas as "bare" spot or patch. Drayk's Vale, Diarazad, Western Wastes and Valley of the Wind. alhoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The correct order starting point and hint from Matt P's guide to Geneforge 1 original game still works: THE GREAT SECRET: Sigh. All right, I'm not going to give this one away. For one, you don't get anything really all that good out of it (at best, a pair of magic boots). Start in the Drayk's vale. Touch the pillar- and- Travel Clockwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious Artila Buzko Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 For what it's worth, a more detailed walkthrough: Spoiler There are 8 pylons with bare spots: Drayk's Vale Ancient Crypt Diarazad The Junkyard The Dry Wastes Western Wastes Valley of the Wind Spirit's City Touch each pylon in that order, and you will complete a ritual pilgrimage. You will then be allowed to enter the inner temple in Spirit's City. Talk to the Priest Shade and learn some interesting history. I don't know where the magic boots come into it, but maybe I'd collected the boots on my earlier journeys through those regions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Stragbou Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) When I saw topic name I thought it was about enemy pylons. Just found out in the Eastern Docks with my 8 stealth that I can spam up to 4 rounds of attacks while standing on maximum shooting distance without them attacking back, only sending me single stunning ray in return after 4 rounds. For my character it's ~4-6 firebolts before I've get a chance to take damage from them. Figured it out! Maybe it's not stealth, but an essence lance's distance. I couldn't cast it too. Probably pylon have 2 attacks per round and choosing each time either stunning ray or essence lances. And when it cannot perform Essence Lancec it will wait.
