Lurker > Shotgunnova

Finished the Waldensians quest, right in time for the weekly tourney. I was surprised that St. Michael's sword is kinda lame, though. It has 58/58/3 damage stats, but my Longinus' Sword has 68/53/3, so there's not much point in switching. Guess saints ain't all they're cracked up to be.

EDIT: Won the tourney, but it overlapped with the executions, so I failed that step and missed that achievement, presumably. Reload time...

Okay, I'm starting my sabotage now. How do I know if the sword is dull or not? Just run its condition all the way to 0% or something? I've used a grindstone twice in 150+ hours, so it's not something I'm too familiar with.

EDIT: Never mind, that worked. Now I just need to replace the rope and poison some tongs.

Booya!

Ahh, good to know it's timed. It shouldn't be too hard to do the executioner stuff, then do the Waldensians stuff. And if it effs up, I'll just reload a save and do it one at a time -- no big deal. Do you have to get the executioner sword before finishing up because their camp despawns?

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

I saw it was timed initially, so I just reloaded and skipped it until now. I'm glad it wasn't one of the quests that auto-failed by advancing the main plotline. I lost a few of those, but they weren't too consequential -- stuff like a miller wanting Stephanie's jewels, etc. I wonder what would happen if I went to the nu-executioner's camp outside Rattay and just murdered them all. I remember seeing 'em out there when I did some main quest, haha.

Also, Hanush wants me to investigate some church dude in town and secretly sabotage his heretic hunt. I have no idea how this quest'll go -- it's completely new to me -- so hopefully that one's good, too. It certainly has the makings of a fun one.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends
And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame

Yeah, I gave some excuses to, but it only gives a little reputation back, so meh.

Before I do the pilgrimage crap, I went back to Rattay to do the next leg of the tourney. Then I remembered, "why don't I do that quest I skipped before?" I'm talking about aiding the executioner when Hanush calls in some out-of-towner to handle his jobs. We're concocting a plan to sabotage the executions with old rope, a dull sword, and poisoned torture implements. Should be fun, especially since I don't have to worry about the old "I can't pick very hard locks" stumbling block.

I haven't done the pilgrimage yet. Trying to get this missable trophy of committing all these sins for Johanka to judge me on. Had to go use some bathhouse wenches, get put in jail, and am currently trying to drop my nourishment levels low enough to get hammered. Maybe that'll work, since I already did the other stuff (kill Runt, kill other people, be a thief, introduce Stephanie to Li'l Henry). This seems like an incredibly annoying cheevo to get, honestly, but at least using a bath wench saves the game and removes fatigue, so...there's that.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

I think in this new quest, Johanka wants me to walk to some church while wearing a penitant's robe, then confess my sins and give 1200 groschen to the church. This...vision business is getting a little extreme, haha.

I wish I could uncover the whole map without relying on Reading Lv12 or whatever. There's tiny spots in the map where the clouds cover things, and you're prevented from approaching by invisible barriers. In fact, when I went to Pavel's hidden treasure, that whole area was cloud-filled, so I think the game prevented me from going there earlier. (I was definitely there, since I stumbled on a poacher's encampment and murdered him when he got mad, lol.)

I think I'm on 9-2 or something. Hasn't been too hard or anything; I just put it on the back burner for other stuff.

Alright, I finished Pavel's quest. At first, I thought I was going to miss his achievement (get treasure without alerting camp), but it turns out it pops when the quest ends. So...going back to do all those steps over again, including stripping naked for sleepy stab time, was unnecessary. It was interesting how there's 3-4 separate treasure stashes all around that camp, though, including some well-camouflaged spots.

ShadowElite86 posted...

I started the game two days ago and she was my first Super Rare build. I was also lucky enough to build Queen Elizabeth to go with her. Really enjoying the game so far!

I think the game gives you a random super rare build within the first 10 or so, so it's nice that you got a limited-time event one. Make sure to check out the exchange shop because you can also get SRs by trading in 80 medals (you get them by destroying non-common ships you don't want). They cycle through, but you can get other useful ships there, too, like Enterprise, Illustrious, Hood, etc.

Got Dido this morning! Just need Gloucester and Halsey Powell now.

---

I should remember to test that threshold if I ever write a guide for this game. The more I play, the more I want to.

Anyway, after helping the tailor give up his wicked ways, I helped the Ledetchko bathhouse whore relocate to Sasau to be Johanka's gal Friday. That one dude ambushed us en route, but I fought all three of 'em off, so that was nice (thanks, Headcracker!). Now, I'm looking for Pavel's treasure buried in the nearby woods. If this were earlier in the game, I'd consider ripping him off and even stealing his yellow hat, but I have over 100K now, so I'll leave well enough alone.

Picking every "three beer" option in a row worked out fine. The quest ends up failing, though, so I'm going to restart. As it turns out, my drinking stat is at 9 right now, so maybe I lucked out a bit, haha.

Hmm, I'll need to check my drinking skill. I rarely drink anything, especially now that I have the "nourishment doesn't decrease while you're standing still" perk, but combined with Saviour Schnapps + drinking in the main plot, maybe I reached the limit without knowing it.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Huh, I thought Johanka's part of the DLC would also be a flashback, but she just wanted me to check out some mine from her dreams and help wean Ambrose off the devil's dice. Honestly, when she said she wanted to tell the townsfolk about her dreams, I instantly had a "you gon' get burned at the stake, lady" thought, but that didn't happen, thankfully. I didn't get the trophy for drinking with Ambrose, even though we both got sauced and I had to pickpocket him while barely able to stand upright.

Gonna reload and do that properly. I guess I have to pick the options with the "three beers" icon beside 'em?

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Ahh. The achievements for that (half of the) DLC are the only ones I didn't look at yet.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

What achievement requires low drinking skill? I don't remember that one.

---

BTW, do you know if the tournament wins give you random Leipa equipment or if it's selected from a unique pool (i.e. once you get the gauntlets, you can't get the gauntlets again)?

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

You can buy 'em in the black market. I went to do so after the maintenance that added HOCs, but I already bought all the normal combat reports, so it wouldn't let me buy the HOCs' stuff. Not sure if that's an error or it's meant to be that way.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Yeah, I remember reading the secret achievement for it, so I was a little disappointed. It still displays the "new quest here" sun icon, though, so I thought maybe it would work...but naw. Unless I'm missing some trigger condition, like a certain time of day, etc. I have some other "become a poacher" quest already started, which I thought might conflict with it, but the window to complete it may have already passed, so...

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Don't they only give +10 at a time? I remember checking when they first came out and it seemed like a pointless item.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

I've always hated auto-battles, but I should really reconsider that opinion, since they can be a good source of equipment drops. I already have everything in the first five chapters, I think, but I'm still leveling up STAR's special equipment from last event, so it could use a li'l boost. (If I have too many resources, I usually do a few basic fairy pulls instead.)

---

Hmm, you could also mean Pribyslavitz? That one's towards the middle of the game. The good news is, when you finish that series of missions, you can rebuild that town (if you have the related DLC).

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Do auto-battles for night maps count toward the event? If so, I should do those. Stopped attempting it yesterday when doing 6-6 three times didn't give any boss kill EXP.

---

You mean Vranik? Yeah, that's in the final third of the game.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

The final missions aren't that difficult, honestly, so you should just go beat it. You can continue to dick around with leftover quests and stuff in the epilogue, if you want.

Won the Rattay tourney on my first try! Well...I guess second. Long ago I entered unassumingly and lost in the first round (pretty sure this was before I had weapons training from Bernard). Kicked Black Peter's ass by finally getting some perfect combo+counter stuff down. I rarely use combos, though.

I wish I'd paid more attention to the quests that fail by advancing the final battle stuff. I know one of the Miller theft quests failed, but I wasn't too interested in doing that, anyway. (Picking a very hard lock in Stephanie's bedroom for jewelry or something, even though it's impossible unless you're super high in the stat. Lame.) One of the quests, for the Talmberg huntsman, is glitched and won't even start.

She can't equip any good gear, so she's basically has Batman stealth in a dress. Ahh, it seems like only yesterday I was doing that DLC and forgot how to use any melee weapons.

New Azur Lane event stuff is out tomorrow.

All the new ships are in light construction, too, so it seems like it'll be easy on the ol' cube stockpiles.

---

Batons are nonlethal, huh? Never really got around to using bludgeons and maces like I wanted, unfortunately. I suppose combined with fleeing like a ninny as often as possible, and looting battlesite corpses for $$$ and gear, it wouldn't be too hard to go through the game in short order. Not looking forward to that monk mission, though, haha.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

I think there's an in-game list of activities (criminal, kills, etc.) like Skyrim, but I never used it. I think that could probably be used to keep track. Are there any hard spots on that kind of playthrough? I'm sure you can just do nonlethal takedowns or run away from most stuff, and leave major conflicts to NPCs, yeah?

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

For the "Cuck Henry" playthrough, did you just go through the game as quickly as possible? I suspect that's the easiest way to ensure you don't accidentally kill someone and forget later on.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

I have the clinch perk, so that should help. As for Magdeburg stuff, it should be inferior to Zoul stuff, at least defense-wise...I think. Usually, Zoul stuff is better than anything you can scrape off bandits' hides.

Also, I kinda want to go through again and maybe do some of the quests/feats I missed.

• killing no one in the entire game besides Runt
• beating game as a virgin (lol)
• building Prabyslavitz without knowing how to read
• betraying Matthew & Fritz in "Gallows Brothers" (which I didn't even do...or maybe I couldn't do)

I think there were some other secret achievements that seem kinda funny, like beating Hardcore mode with all bad perks or something.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends
And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame

Yeah, I want the armor pieces. Did you get the House of Zoul armor from Band of Bastards? I'm curious how the tourney prizes stack up to it. Been wearing it ever since I stripped it off the old man's corpse, haha. I'm also curious how the Headcracker perk works in the tournament and if it's as OP as it could be. (Headcracker gives +10% chance of instant knockout on head knocks, if you remember.)

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Hmm, now I'm intrigued. Should try this later.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Beat the game! It kinda got me in an FAQing mood, honestly -- haven't written anything since last March. Might try to do some stuff after I go through the DLC thoroughly (skipped the tournament stuff and Johanka's part of A Woman's Lot).

As for the storyline at the end, I rather liked it. Yeah, the part where Henry is Radzig's son is kinda lame, and letting Istvan escape is lame, but not everything has to be super complex in medieval times. This game definitely got me more interested in a sequel -- if not for the lovable characters, but to see how the gamecraft (bugs, etc.) improves on a sophomore take.

---

Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

Built the trebuchet after a lot of countryside trips, and managed to fend off Istvan's reinforcements down by the "ford". Now, the trebuchet is in danger of destruction. Reminds me of that one mission in Dragon Age: Inquisition, haha. The problem with this series of events is how the big bad seemingly knows what we're doing at all times, and at the right moment, when really it shouldn't be anything of the sort. Kinda annoying, even for scripted events.
