Burgeoning Battle Gamma Bryce Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Will sending the giants to attack muck threaten my knowledge brew supply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 If you mean items you dropped for storage..I think not.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I believe Bryce is referring to the slith alchemist in Muck, who I think makes knowledge brews. It might be a bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 There is plenty of time to wander down to Thalants, collect a reward and return to remove the giants as a threat. At least I think so since I never checked. You can always save and see what happens. I know there is time to claim the Highground reward and go back to kill the giants. I know if you leave Morbo alive and don't get back there quickly to kill him, that he disappears. No gazerskin sandals for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma Bryce Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Yeah, I already lost Morbo (funny encounter!) but it's just as well because I'm a singleton and don't have any additional feet to put them on. Anyhow, yes, I meant the Slith alchemist. So as I'm understanding it, this is the sequence: Send the giants to attack Muck. Report this to the Vahnatai and Highground. Kill the giant queen. Report this to Muck. Right? (For optimal rewards.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Pretty much. At least the rewards from Highground and Thalants are nice. Muck's is only useful for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Emperor Tullegolar Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Telling the giants to attack Muck doesn't really result in that much destruction. Every now and then, a giant or two will appear outside and attack the city when you're near it, but the guards can usually handle them. I've never seen them get as far as the alchemist. I have, however, seen that one nephil village completely destroyed by undead, which was hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Khoth Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I've seen the Muck blacksmith get killed by giants, but I think the alchemist is made of tougher stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Sources of knowledge are many..so you don't have to mope around in one place.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Synergy Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 What's funny is that even after you have killed every last living giant in their keep, they still keep coming to attack Muck. -S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this meant to mean there are multiple sources of knowledge brews? News to me... Then again, the endgame came so quickly for me that I forgot to drink my 30 or so remaining knowledge brews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I'm not referring to knowledge brews..I'm referring to knowledge itself.. If you look at the Board overview..this thread's title is not fully shown..instead.. "Protecting my source of knowledge..." Is shown.. And I haven't played A5 yet..Windows user and all that..@_@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma Bryce Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 I did the sequence I mentioned above and got rewards from all 3 towns... duplicity for the win! In a nice touch, some nephils from Highground attacked me on my way back. They might actually have killed me, but I ran back a few screens to the area that has patrollers from Muck, together we defeated them without serious trouble. I am yet to see Muck be attacked by giants, although I've only been back to it maybe three times. There is a source of knowledge crystals in the Vahnatai city, but they require focusing crystals and mandrake to make, and I have sold most of the focusing crystals I found, knowing that as a singleton I would have more awesome artifact armor and weapons than I knew what to do with anyway. (Which was true.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgeoning Battle Gamma Bryce Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 I don't think so, but it takes focus crystal, some other herbs - either energetic or spiritual, and of course mandrake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
