You run the Eon Altar main game on your PC and use your Android or iOS device as the controller. There are five heroes to choose from each with different powers and motives. The game has a campaign (story) and a combat arena (enemy waves) game mode. Fact Sheet ****** - Title: Eon Altar - Developer: Flying Helmet Games - Publisher: Flying Helmet Games - Genre: Role-playing game (RPG) Turn-based strategy (TBS) Adventure - Theme: Fantasy - PC platforms: Windows and Mac - Controller platforms: Android and iOS - Release dates: Early Access: August 28th, 2015 Season 1 Episode 1: June 22nd, 2016 Episode 2: October 6th, 2016 Episode 3: January 19th, 2017 - Local single player (PC) - Local co-op 2-4 players (PC) - Wi-Fi required - Website: www.eonaltar.com - Twitter: FHG_Games - Facebook: FlyingHelmetGames Future Plans ******** It has been planned there will be three Seasons and each consists of three Episodes. An Episode usually has about two levels. Episode 1 has three levels where the first one is a tutorial level. There is a plan for a console version also. ================================================================================ [G2] WHAT YOU NEED ================================================================================ Requirements in Short ***************** You need a computer, a Wi-Fi modem/router and at least one mobile device (phone or tablet). You need one mobile device per player. There is a possibility you can use a phone as a router (also known as tethering), but I haven't tested that myself. Check the latest information for the requirements from the official website. Computer Requirements ***************** You need a computer with Steam and Eon Altar installed into it. The minimum system requirements for a computer at the time of writing this text are as follows: Windows Computer ************ Windows 7 Processor: 2.4 GHz Dual Core Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: 512 MB NVIDIA GeForce 9800 / ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT DirectX: Version 9.0 Storage: 4 GB available space Sound Card: Direct X compatible Macintosh Computer ************** OS X 10.8.5 Processor: Intel Core i5 @ 2.5Ghz Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: Intel Iris 1536 MB Storage: 4 GB available space Mobile Device Requirements ********************** You need a mobile device with the Eon Altar Controller app installed into it. The minimum system requirements for a mobile device (phone or tablet) at the time of writing this text are as follows: Android Device ********** Android version 4.1 or later iOS Device ****** iOS 8 or later ================================================================================ [G3] TECHNICAL PROBLEMS ================================================================================ Introduction ******** This text does not give you technical guidance on how to make Eon Altar work with your computer, phone/tablet and router if you are having problems. Having said that, I'm giving some general advice that may be helpful regarding mainly the controller application. Updates *** Check that you have the latest version of the Eon Altar game and the Eon Altar controller application. Close Other Programs **************** Let's assume your computer, phone and tablet have enough computing power, working memory and storage space. Other programs may consume those resources or even cause problems with your device, so try closing all unnecessary programs you have open. With your Android or iOS device, launch the recent applications menu and swipe up or right to close programs. How to launch the recent applications menu depends on your device. If you have an Android phone try tapping on the left or right corner below the display when the display is turned on. If you are using an Android tablet try to find a Square icon at the bottom of the display and tap it. If you have an iPhone or an iPad, try double-clicking the Home button to see the recently used apps screen. Close Eon Altar Controller App ************************** With my iPhone I have noticed I sometimes need to restart the Eon Altar controller app before it can connect to the game again. Launch the recent applications menu as described above and use swipe to close the program. Then start the program again. Restart Your Devices **************** Even if you close a program there can be background processes left running in your device causing problems to other programs. Restart your device to get rid of those processes. If the program that is causing problems is set to start automatically when your device starts then you can try to disable automatic start if there is an option for that and if the program is not any essential software that needs to be running. If you didn't close other programs as mentioned above, those programs may auto start again and cause the same problems, so try closing those unnecessary programs for trouble-shooting purposes. Empty Cache ******* Sometimes the cache files (application's temporary files) get corrupted, so try emptying the cache for your Eon Altar controller application. Usually other programs use their own cache also, so at least try emptying cache for your device's web browser, because that cache can be huge. In Android, go to Settings, Apps (or Application Manager), Eon Altar, select Storage and Clear Cache. Reinstall Eon Altar Controller App ****************************** There can be something broken in the Eon Altar controller application, so try removing it from your device and installing it again. Battery Optimization **************** Your Android device may have third-party Battery Optimization software aiming to decrease the amount of energy used by the apps. Try disabling Battery Optimization for Eon Altar Controller app. Security Software ************* Your security software may not identify your Eon Altar game on your PC or the Eon Altar Controller App on your phone/tablet. Your security software may block all new programs on your device by default. In both cases allow internet connections and other functionality for your Eon Altar applications in your firewall, virus scanner and spyware blocker. Also, try updating your security software in case it doesn't automatically update itself. With some network cards there may come network management software that causes problems with applications, so try allowing your game with that software or try closing that software for trouble-shooting purposes. Router/Modem ******** Your router firmware might be be working incorrectly because of software bugs, so try a hard reset if there is a possibility to do so. A hard reset means a physical button or a hole marked with the label Reset in your device. Before the reset operation write down any important custom settings you may have done, so it will be easier to make those settings again. Wi-Fi Connection ************ Eon Altar uses a Wi-Fi connection to connect your Controller App to the PC game. That means your Controller App and PC need to be on the same Wi-Fi network, so you need to enable Wi-Fi on your phone and connect to the same network. If your PC is connected to your router/modem via an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi it may cause problems connecting the controller app with the game software. Try connecting your PC with Wi-Fi only or try using a newer router/modem. See also the manual and support website for your router/modem in case you need to change the settings. Your Internet Service Provider may require certain settings, so write down all the settings before changing them to be able to switch back to the old settings. Consult your Internet Service Provider for more information should you try to change any settings at all. Contact Support *********** If none of the above helps and you have tried to search for solutions from the Eon Altar forums and FAQ, then post a message to the forums or contact the Eon Altar support. There should be a contact form page on the Eon Altar website and you might find the support email address from the forums. It will help the developers if you mention your computer's and phone's operating system version number and security software and the name and model of your router/modem. ================================================================================ [G4] FAQ ================================================================================ Here are some of the frequently asked questions (FAQ) found in the forums about Eon Altar. Visit the forums to find more thorough answers. Q: Why does the Eon Altar Controller App consume so much battery energy? A: There can be other reasons for that. Keeping your phone's screen open all the time uses a surprisingly much energy. The same applies to using your phone's Wi-Fi chip for surfing the Web and downloading videos. Q: Can I play Eon Altar solo using multiple phones and tablets? A: Sure you can. I have been playing it myself with an iPhone, an Android phone and an Android tablet controlling three heroes almost simultaneously. Q: Can you play this game online with your friends? A: No. It is meant to be played with your friends in the same house. Q: Can you play this game on a campus network? A: Probably not. This game is meant to be played home with friends using a home router/modem that is capable of serving a few dozen machines instead of hundreds of different clients. Q: I have updated my game and Controller App, but they don't have the same version numbers. Is that a problem? A: No, it's not a problem. The version numbers are on purpose different for different operating system platforms for software development purposes. You can find the latest version number information for your Controller App from Apple's or Google's app store if you are unsure what version you should be having. Q: Is there any other way of controlling your hero other than a phone or tablet? A: The Controller Application gives you a lot of information about your character in addition to unlocking and upgrading your powers and equipment, so you need a supported phone or a tablet to fully enjoy this game. Q: Is there a Windows Phone version for the Eon Altar Controller App? A: No. There are no promises for a Windows Phone version at the time of writing this text. Q: The estimated playtime is 4 hours for Episode 1. Is it really only 4 hours? A: There are different characters to increase the replayability value when you can try different tactics and weapons with the same or different characters or character combinations. The tactical situation also changes with a different number of characters. You can change the difficulty setting and try again to see how well you understand the tactical perspective of all the attacks, defends, powers, weapons, buffs, position of your heroes in relation to the enemy groups in the same area and so on. There are also achievements, so you can see how many of those you can get. And there are votes where you make decisions. Try the different voting options in different gaming sessions to see the differences of your choices. In addition to the campaign there is also the combat arena mode. There you can see how many enemies you can take down in one go. It can take an hour to defeat 10 Waves and the next 10 Waves probably takes even more time if you like to think it through on how to proceed with every situation. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [B] THE BASICS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [B1] MAIN APPLICATION ================================================================================ MAIN MENU - in the game Main Menu is the screen where you can select which game mode to play or choose some other action - from the Main Menu you can select a new Campaign session (left) or load a saved Campaign session (right) - you can also start a new Combat Arena session, go to Settings, see the Credits, Quit the game or look at the Version information PAUSE MENU - on a PC version you can pause a campaign mission or a combat arena session by pressing the Esc key on the keyboard - in the Pause Menu you can go to the Main Menu by select "Exit to Main Menu" or you can quit the game by then selecting "Quit Game" ================================================================================ [B2] CONTROLLER APPLICATION ================================================================================ TOP MENU - in the controller application Top Menu button is at the top left hand corner and it looks like a circle that has three black horizontal lines on a white background - this kind of button is also known as the "Hamburger Menu", "Expand Menu" or simply the "Menu Button" - when you open the Menu Button you will see the icons for the screens Stats, Gear, Abilities, Upgrades, Lore, and Quests - when you close the Menu Button you will see the Move Marker, Power Wheel or Defend Wheel depending on what you were doing previously MOVE MARKER - Move Marker is the colorful rotating circle at the middle of the controller screen when the Top Menu is closed TARGET MARKER - Target Marker is the colorful rotating circle on the main game screen you can move around and target enemies, teammates, allies and items like chests CHOOSE A TARGET - to choose a target tap the inside of the Move Marker on your controller, keep your finger pressed on the screen and drag your finger towards the location corresponding the target on the main game screen RUN - to run tap the outside of the Move Marker on your controller, keep your finger pressed on the screen and drag your finger towards the location where you want to go POWER WHEEL - Power Wheel is shown during a battle and it shows what kind of powers or attacks you can use - select a power or an attack from the Power Wheel by tapping one of the small circles near the border of the Power Wheel - triangle-like icon at the bottom of a small circle tells you the range of the power or attack: a larger triangle-like icon means a longer range SELF BUTTON - Self Button is the round character icon at the bottom left hand corner - inside my mind I call this the Character Button DEFEND WHEEL - you can show the Defend Wheel by pressing the Self Button and you can switch back to the Power Wheel by pressing the cross in the Defend Wheel - when the Defend Wheel is open you can heal yourself with a drink, food, buff item or a healing power if you have any - you can use your hold back ability, which is the top icon with a hand and a shield behind the hand - Defend Wheel may also contain attacks or ally-protect powers, such as: - Baryson: Armor of Light - Marcus: Aura of Command - Muran: - Flame Aura - Stone Warden POCKET - the game does not have a Pocket section at least not at the time of writing this text, but I use this definition inside my head - if you have no potion or food shown on the Defend Wheel you need to put them in your Pocket - to put an item in your Pocket (and you are not in a battle) go to the Top Menu, then the Gear screen and activate the items you want to put into your Pocket ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [H] THE HEROES ================================================================================ ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [H01] LIST OF HEROES ================================================================================ BARYSON - "fighter/healer" - Crusader - Champion Swordsman - Cleric of Light - Healing Arts MARCUS - "juggernaut/protector" - Guardsman - Protective Shielding - Sweeping Spearman - Strength and Vitality MURAN - "witch/wizard" - Battlemage - Ranged Elemental Destruction - Arcane Defense - Scholarly Arts SHASEK - "berserk/frontline" - Sellsword - Swift-Striking Blademaster - Primal Fury - Loot Hoarder SILENTÂ THORN - "stealth/ninja" - Assassin - Strike from the shadows - Precision Archer - Thiefcraft ================================================================================ [H02] BARYSON ================================================================================ - Lord Baryson from Edgemont in Wymark, Crusader of Meldon - background: Order of Light and Truth sent Baryson to destroy Zaquent's Wish (orb of power) - interesting attacks: Great Swing (multi-hit), Blade of Glory (multi-hit), Healing Strike, Rebuke (radiant) - interesting defends: Lay on Hands (healing) - interesting powers: Restoration: you can use this in combat when you are out of healing potions and Energy (which is required for healing) - interesting drinks: Water of Life (+10 Fortitude, remove all negative status effects), Water of Life II (+25 Fortitude) - tactics: heal yourself and teammates while attacking the enemy (Healing Strike), heal teammates in a radius (Sanctuary) - tactics: if you see a lot of enemies around you, you could use Healing Strike instead of a multi-hit attack (Great Swing), because you probably will get a lot of damage in the following rounds from the enemies and a multi-hit attack is not very successful every time - tactics: if you see a large group of enemies near you before a fight and they haven't reached you yet, but you have a hunch you are their main target in the next round, you can use Restoration to give you healing in the next three rounds and it doesn't even cost you Energy to do so - tactics: you can first use Restoration in the beginning of a fight and then a Healing Strike for even more healing - tactics: Healing Water removes a Poisoned debuff, so you or your teammate will not get damage from the cured poisoning in the following rounds - warning: all of Baryson's multi-hit attacks are impossible to estimate how far they will reach your allies, so keep Baryson far away from your allies - warning: if Baryson is using Blade of Glory and there is a two character's distance from Baryson to your allie, then the allie will get hurt Stats at the Beginning (for Comparison) *********************************** -

interesting attacks: Barbed Bolt (projectile), Incendiary Bolt (Burning), Lance Assault (slam with your shield and then attack the nearest enemy), Shield Smash (attack twice if possible), Sweep Attack (multi-hit) - interesting drinks: Vial of Copperweed (+25% Fortitude) - tactics: the "juggernaut" or "tank" role means you disengage enemies (Lance Assault, Shield Smash, Aura of Command) and provoke enemies (Barbed Bolt, Bodyguard, Aura of Command) to attack you, so you take as much damage as possible from the enemies instead of your teammates, but that means you should take care of protecting yourself from damage (Aura of Command II, Battle Charge II, Skirmisher) and increasing your Stamina (Field Medic, Body Conditioning) -

See also your Abilities and Upgrades screen to see what powers, buffs and crafting skills you have unlocked. Fortitude and Energy **************** - Fortitude: health points - Energy: attack/defense points Properties ****** - Force - Accuracy - Defense Skills ** - Athletics - Scouting - Acrobatics - Stamina - Shrouding - Scholar - Thievery Attributes ****** - Vitality - Strength - Agility - Insight - Perception - Willpower ================================================================================ [H08] FORTITUDE AND ENERGY ================================================================================ Fortitude ***** Fortitude means how much your hero has health points left. If your hero's Fortitude decreases to zero, your hero needs to be revived or he/she will die. You can increase your hero's Fortitude by drinking potions or eating food that heal you. Baryson has healing powers (Lay on Hands and Armor of Light) and a healing attack (Healing Strike) to increase Fortitude. You usually can increase the maximum possible Fortitude your hero can have from Abilities or Upgrades. Muran has no unlocks to increase the maximum Fortitude. Energy ** Energy is the number of points you can use for attacks, defense and other actions that require Energy. There are actions that do not require Energy. Basic attacks, holding back, reviving your teammate and giving your ally a healing potion or some other buff item do not require Energy. Muran's Blink and Silent Thorn's Shadowstep do not require Energy either. You can get more Energy by making basic attacks. There are drinks that also give you Energy. Muran's hold back ability Meditate gives her Energy. Muran also has a power to give Energy to others. You usually can increase the maximum possible Energy from Abilities or Upgrades. Baryson and Shasek have no unlocks to increase the maximum Energy. ================================================================================ [H09] PROPERTIES ================================================================================ Properties ****** A hero has three properties, which are Force, Accuracy and Defense. Force * Force is the base score for calculating how much a successful attack damages the enemy. The damage is calculated based on your Weapon Level. Your total damage is your current Weapon Level's damage + your Force + any additional damage by the Power you use. Weapon Levels and the damage they cause are: Level Damage Battleworn 3 - 6 Polished 4 - 8 Fine 5 - 10 Superior 6 - 12 Exceptional 7 - 14 Masterwork 8 - 16 Accuracy **** Accuracy is used to calculate how probably your hero succeeds in an attack. Defense *** Defense is used to calculate how probably your hero succeeds in evading or blocking an attack. ================================================================================ [H10] SKILLS AND ATTRIBUTES ================================================================================ Skills vs. Attributes ***************** Do not confuse Skills with Attributes! In short, Skills are for Skill Checks and Attributes are for fights in the Campaign and Combat Arena. A Skill has the "book" icon in the Abilities and Upgrades screens. An Attribute has the "six-pointed star" icon in the Abilities and Upgrades screens. Skills ** Skills are used in Skill Checks in the Campaign, so you don't need them in the Combat Arena. Skills are Acrobatics, Athletics, Scholar, Scouting, Shrouding, Stamina and Thievery. Acrobatics is used to avoid traps. Athletics is used for opening chests and destroying obstacles like barricades. Scouting is associated with eavesdropping and finding hidden items and detecting traps. Shrouding is used to avoid damage from chaos by detecting traps. Thievery is used for opening chests and doors with locks. Stamina is used to avoid damage from impact-based traps. Scholar is used to uncover hidden lore, disarm traps (crossbow trap in mission 1-3) and unlock magic-based doors and chests. Stamina is not used in Episode 1. Attributes ****** Attributes affect your hero's Force, Accuracy and Defense, which are used in fights. Attributes are Vitality, Strength, Agility, Insight, Perception and Willpower. Which Attributes affect your hero's current Force, Accuracy and Defense depends on which Discipline Tree is used in an attack/defense. Keep in mind that if you increase your maximum Fortitude or Energy in one of the Ability trees it will affect your maximum Fortitude or Energy in all circumstances. ================================================================================ [H11] ABILITIES ================================================================================ Abilities and Upgrades ****************** Some of the Ability Icons are in the Abilities screen and the rest are in the Upgrades screen. I'm telling this to avoid confusion later in this guide when I'm mentioning an Ability Icon that is in the Upgrades. Ability Icons ********* The Ability Icons can be categorized into Attacks, Defends, Skills, Attributes, Hold Backs, Revives, Potions, Weapons, Companions, Buffs, Buff Items, Discipline Tree Buffs, Power Moves, Healing and Looting. Attack ** An Attack Ability Icon unlocks enhancements to an Attack you already have or it unlocks a new Attack you don't have yet. Defend ** Defends are used from the Defend Wheel. For example, you can use protecting, disengaging and weakening powers like Baryson's Rebuke, Marcus' Bodyguard and Aura of Command, and Shasek's Savage Roar. Skill * A Skill Ability Icon has the "book" icon. It increases the Skill it mentions. You can use Skills in Skill Checks in the Campaign. Attribute ***** An Attribute Ability Icon has the "six-pointed star with a triangle". It increases the Attribute it mentions. Attributes are used to calculate combat results. Hold Back ***** A Hold Back Ability Icon unlocks an enhancement to your hold back power. The power can for example heal Baryson or give Muran more Energy. Hold back powers are Baryson's Restoration, Marcus' Hold the Line, Muran's Meditate, Shasek's Seethe and Silent Thorn's Focus. Revive ** A Revive Ability Icon is already unlocked for all of the heroes. You can lift up a defeated hero who is not dead yet. Potion ** A Potion Ability Icon unlocks a recipe for that potion. Weapon ** A Weapon Ability Icon unlocks an enhancement for a weapon you already have or it unlocks a new weapon you don't have yet. Companion ***** A Companion Ability Icon unlocks a companion or enhancements to that companion. Muran has the temporary companion Stone Warden. It will attack your enemies. Buff A Buff Ability Icon has the "ten-pointed star with a drop". A Buff enhances the way you attack or defend or it may increase for example your maximum Fortitude or Energy. As an example, Shasek has Buff unlocks for his Bloodied state. Buff Item ***** A Buff Item Ability Icon unlocks an item that gives you an advantage when that item is used. For example, a buff item might increase one of your skills. Discipline Tree Buff **************** Discipline Tree Buff Ability Icons are the leftmost icons on each Ability tree screen. They enhance your hero for that particular Discipline Tree. It may for example increase your Force, Accuracy, Defense, Range, Movement or resistance for some damage type. Power Move ****** A Power Move Ability Icon unlocks enhancements for your Power Move. Muran has Blink and Silent Thorn has Shadowstep. Healing *** A Healing Ability Icon unlocks a healing power or enhancements for a healing power. Baryson has Lay on Hands and Armor of Light. Baryson's hold back power Restoration also heals, but only Baryson. Looting *** A Looting Ability Icon unlocks a better chance of gaining more resources or Gear when looting. ================================================================================ [H12] ABILITY LEVELS ================================================================================ Ability Levels ********** Here are some of the the Ability levels and how much Renown you need for them. LEVEL RENOWN NEEDED FOR A LEVEL 1 - 2 20 3 50 4 95 5 162 6 263 7 415 8 643 9 985 10 1497 11 2266 Ability Costs ********* Every level of an Ability tree has a different cost for an individual power. Each Ability on the same level does not have the same cost, so below are some approximate costs to give you an idea of the costs. LEVEL APPROXIMATE RENOWN COST FOR AN ABILITY 1 5 - 15 2 10 - 20 3 20 - 25 4 30 - 35 5 45 - 75 6 60 - 80 7 80 - 150 8 120 - 200 9 150 10 250 ================================================================================ [H13] ABILITY TREES ================================================================================ Introduction ******** Here are some things I noticed when I compared the Ability trees regarding what they have to offer. You may skip this section as it doesn't teach you much on tactics or upgrading. Attacks *** - the first Ability tree usually contains multi-hit attacks, but the second Ability tree may also have them - the second Ability tree usually contains projectile attacks, but the first Ability tree may also have them - the first and second Ability tree may also contain combo attacks - the third Ability tree is usually for defending, disengaging and healing Force, Accuracy and Defense *********************** - the first Ability tree most often gives points to Force and Accuracy - the second Ability tree most often gives points to Accuracy - the third Ability tree gives points to Force, Accuracy and Defense quite evenly Skills ** - the first Ability tree most often gives points to Athletics and Acrobatics - the second Ability tree most often gives points to Athletics, Scouting and Stamina - the third Ability tree most often gives points to Shrouding and Scholar Attributes ****** - the first Ability tree usually gives only one point to one of the Attributes - the second Ability tree usually gives one or two points to the Attributes - the third Ability tree gives almost no points to the Attributes for any hero ================================================================================ [H14] EQUIPMENT LEVELS ================================================================================ Equipment Levels: Costs and Perks ***************************** "Equipment" or officially known as Upgrades (weapons and armor) have the same names for the levels, but those levels give different kind of perks. Weapon levels give your hero attack points. Armor levels give you Fortitude or Energy points. Depending on your hero you will get Fortitude or Energy from the second unlockable level (Polished) and so on. For example Muran and Silent Thorn get +3 Fortitude from the Polished level and Baryson gets +3 Energy.

I use the slash-word (/word) abbreviations like /two and /sixty instead of numbers like 2 rounds and 60 rounds for easier reading as there will be less numbers mixed up with all that other numerical data in the Ability and Upgrades descriptions - /word abbreviations used in this text are: - /two = 2 rounds - /three = 3 rounds - /five = 5 rounds - /twelve = 12 rounds - /sixty = 60 rounds ================================================================================ [T2] BUFFS ================================================================================ Introduction ******** To understand the tactics and the abilities of the heroes, first we need to take a look at the buffs in the game. A buff is a part of an Ability or a Power and it enhances your hero, teammate or an allie. For example, a buff may increase Damage, Defense, Fortitude or Resistance, but a buff can also mean something not measured in numbers like Silent Thorn's Concealed (you cannot be targeted by enemies until your next turn). A debuff is the opposite of a buff and is used against enemies. A debuff can for example decrease Resistance to a damage type. A Status Effect mentioned in the game means a buff or a debuff. Terms * Bloodied - this is more like a Shasek's feature than a buff - normally Shasek becomes Bloodied when his Fortitude drops to less than 25% and he gains +25% Physical Resistance - with the Short Fuse ability (Berserker level 1), Shasek becomes Bloodied when Fortitude drops to less than 50% Free - power does not consume an action in combat - you can for example drink a healing potion during your turn Movement - Movement is not a buff, but this is an explanation for the "+x Movement" note mentioned in some of the buffs in this game - the number one in "+1 Movement" means approximately the width of a hero - Baryson and Shasek have the same Movement distance, but if you activate "Seethe II" (Hastened, +6 Force) for Shasek during combat and you compare how far Baryson and Shasek can move, then in that case Shasek can move about five hero's widths more than Baryson Move Distance - the distance your character moves Range Distance - the distance your projectile moves or how far your power reaches Buffs and Debuffs ************* Affliction - 10 Chaos Damage /three Aggression - increase the probability to get attacked by an enemy instead of your ally (used with the juggernaut-type character Marcus) Amplified - +10 Energy /three Angered - +25% Force, +25% Enemy Aggression (increase Aggro) Bleeding - 10 Piercing Damage /three Blighted - 20 Chaos Damage /three Blinded - -50% Range, -25% Accuracy Burning - 10 Radiant damage /three Cleansing Pyre - 10 Radiant Damage /three (stronger than Purifying Flame) Concealed - you cannot be targeted by enemies until the beginning of your next turn Cure - +4 Fortitude /three Demoralized - -25% Radiant Resistance and -25% Chaos Resistance Disengage - enemy's Engagement lock will be removed Emboldened - +25% Force, +25% Accuracy Engaged - your target becomes locked to you, and cannot use ranged powers Flesh Wound - 3 Piercing Damage /three Focused - +25% Range, +25% Accuracy Hastened - +5 Movement, +25% Ranged Resistance Hindered - -5 Movement, -25% Ranged Resistance Knockback - target is hurled backwards Mend - +8 Fortitude /three Misdirection - -25% Enemy Aggro (Aggression, decrease the probability to get attacked by enemies) Misery - 3 Chaos Damage /three Protected - +5 Defense - +25% Positional Resistances - 25% Engaged - 25% Flanking - 25% Ranged Purifying Flame - 3 Radiant Damage /three Regenerate - +12 Fortitude /three Renewed - +5 Energy /three Scorched - -3 Fortitude /three - from Chests Sundered - -25% Defense Taunted - enemy must attack a taunting character Weakened - -5 Force, -25% Positional Resistances ================================================================================ [T3] TACTICAL ADVICE ================================================================================ Attacks *** Attack Types - you can use basic attacks to target single enemies - Shasek's Double Slice is an upgraded version of Slice and it makes the attack a combo attack - you can use precision attacks to damage a single opponent more or more accurately/probably than a basic attack - you can use multi-hit attacks against multiple enemies when your allies are not too close to you, because they will also take damage - you can use combo attacks, which usually means you first attack against one enemy and then another - if you can't shoot a projectile, but you would like to attack an enemy far away, you might be able to use a charge attack Charge Attacks - a charge or assault attack can be used instead of a projectile attack, when you don't have Energy or other resources for a projectile attack - a charge attack means your hero runs a long distance towards the enemy before striking - examples of charge attacks are: - Baryson: (none) - Marcus: Battle Charge (Engaged) - Muran: (none) - Shasek: Bullrush (+2 Force) - Silent Thorn: Eviscerate (attack and then step away, Hindered /three, +8 Accuracy, requires Concealed from Shadowstep action) Combo Attacks - you can use a combination of actions with combo attacks - examples of combo attacks are: - Baryson: (none) - Marcus: Shield Smash (attack an enemy causing Disengage and Knockback, then make another action) - Muran: (none) - Shasek: - Bladestorm (attack one enemy and then up to two random targets, while Bloodied, this is actually a sequence of actions you can't control after the initial target has been chosen) - Slay (if enemy is not killed by the first attack you can make another action) - Silent Thorn: (none) Disengage Attack Without the Need to Disengage - you can use a disengage attack without being engaged when you want that little bit of more to your attack, for example Shasek's Kick gives +2 Accuracy and Silent Thorn's Broadhead Arrow gives +2 Force - not all disengage attacks give you more Accuracy, Damage or Defense Energy from Attacks - amount of Energy from a basic attack depends on did you miss, hit or made a Critical hit (maximum damage) - basic melee and projectile attack gives +3 (miss), +5 (hit) or +8 Energy (Critical hit) Melee Attack - a melee attack's strike shape can be an arc or a circle in addition to a blow to a single target, so keep that in mind when you decide which melee attack to use, because you may hit your allies also Multi-hit Melee Attacks - a multi-hit melee attack strikes at two or more targets at the same time or very fast sequentially - examples of multi-hit melee attacks are: - Baryson: - Blade of Glory (hit targets in front of you) - Great Swing (strike targets around you in Medium Radius) - Marcus: - Lance Assault (Disengage and Knockback to all enemies in Small Range and then attack the nearest enemy) - Sweep Attack (strike all targets in an arc) - Shasek: - Blood Rage (damage all targets in Small Radius) - Rend (melee attack all targets in front of you) Melee or Projectile - when comparing the basic attacks that don't require attack Energy, melee can cause more damage than a projectile depending on the damage type, which matters when the enemy Fortitude is near the maximum damage of your basic attacks and you want to finish the enemy, but don't have enough Energy so you could use an attack that requires Energy Precision Attacks - a precision attack is meant to damage a single opponent more or more accurately/probably than a basic attack - examples of precision attacks are: - Baryson: Duel (Engaged, +25% Front Resistance, +4 Force, +2 Accuracy) - Marcus: Lunge III (+4 Defense, +4 Accuracy) - Shasek: - Kick (Knockback, Disengage, +2 Accuracy) - Slay (precision and combo, if enemy is not killed by the first attack you can make another action, +4 Force, +6 Accuracy) - Silent Thorn: - Assassinate (Critical Chaos strike, +8 Force, +10 Accuracy, requires Concealed) - Eviscerate (attack then step away, Hindered /three, +8 Accuracy, requires Concealed) - Viper Arrow (poison arrow, Affliction) - Void Arrow (Chaos damage, Blinded, +2 Force, +4 Accuracy) Projectiles and Energy Beams - projectiles and energy beams that you can use are arrows, bolts, lightning, retrievable blade (Chakram) and explosives (Burst Chakram and Bolas) - you can use different kind of projectiles for different kind of situations and tactics: - cause damage over time - hit multiple targets weakening the enemies - slow down one or more dangerous enemies that should not get close to any of your team members - to increase your odds at hitting your enemies you can increase your Accuracy in the same Ability tree where you have unlocked your power - examples of projectiles and energy beams are: - Baryson: Sacred Light (beam, Purifying Flame, damage over time) - Marcus: Incendiary Bolt (damage over time) - Muran: - Aetherbolt (beam) - Fireball (explosive projectile, multi-hit in Medium Range) - Call Lightning (multi-hit autotarget, hits the chosen enemy and a random enemy or the same enemy again if there are no near enemies) - Soul Syphon (beam) - Shasek: - Chakram (throw blade at your enemy, if target is not killed retrieve the blade for a follow-up attack) - Bolas (explosive projectile, one target, Hindered, Sundered) - Burst Chakram (explosive projectile, Small Radius) - Silent Thorn: - Double Shot (shoot two arrows sequentially, Slowed) - Explosive Arrow (Radiant Damage in Small Radius) - Quick Shot (Slowed) - Volley (multiple arrows, Slowed) Projectile Comparison - initially Marcus' Incendiary Bolt (Burning: 10 radiant damage /three) causes more damage than Baryson's Sacred Light (Purifying Flame: 3 radiant damage /three), but on the other hand Baryson's Sacred Light doesn't cost anything Random Attacks - a random attack means your hero attacks a target that is calculated by the game - a semi-random attack means that your hero attacks the first target and then one or more random targets - examples of semi-random attacks are: - Muran: Call Lightning (multi-hit autotarget, attack a chosen enemy and a random enemy or the same enemy again if there are no near enemies) - Shasek: Bladestorm (combo, attack one enemy and then up to two random targets, while Bloodied) Defends *** Introduction With defends I mean protecting, disengaging, weakening and distracting powers. You can see Revive as defend also. With a defend you can help yourself or your ally. Defends are for example Baryson's Rebuke, Marcus' Bodyguard and Aura of Command and Shasek's Savage Roar. Disengage Attacks and Powers - when you want yourself or your teammate(s) disengaged from an attack you can use disengage attacks, powers and buff items for that purpose - examples of disengage attacks, powers and buff items are: - Baryson: Rebuke (Radiant attack, Disengaged, Knockback, +2 Force) - Marcus: - Aura of Command (aggro buff, Disengage in Medium Range, affected enemies are Taunted) - Lance Assault (Disengage and Knockback to all enemies in Small Range and then attack the nearest enemy with +6 Force) - Shield Smash (attack an enemy causing Disengage and Knockback, then make another action) - Muran: Blink (teleporting, Disengage) - Shasek: - Blood Rage III (Knockback, Disengage, +16 Force) - Kick (Knockback, Disengage, +2 Accuracy) - Kick III (turns Kick into multi-hit attack, all targets in front of you and to your left and right side gain damage, Knockback, Disengage and Hindered, +2 Accuracy) - Silent Thorn: - Broadhead Arrow (Slowed /three, Disengaged, +2 Force) - Shadowstep (Disengaged, Concealed, Emboldened) Hold Back Powers - you don't always need to attack the enemy in every turn, instead you can use your hold back ability for healing, increasing your Energy or otherwise preparing for the fight - hold back can be a good option when the enemies are far enough so that they probably can't attack you yet even with projectiles (arrows) - hold back abilities for the heroes are: - Baryson: - Restoration (Cure) - Restoration II (Mend) - Restoration III (Regenerate) - Marcus: - Hold the Line (Angered) - Hold the Line II (+2 Defense) - Hold the Line III (+15% Fortitude, +4 Defense) - Muran: - Meditate (+15% Energy) - Meditate II (+25% Energy) - Meditate III (Amplified) - Shasek: - Seethe (+4 Force) - Seethe II (Hastened, +6 Force) - Seethe III (+8 Force) - Silent Thorn: - Focus (Focused /round) - Focus II (Focused /three) - Focus III (Misdirection) Distraction Powers - you can use Muran's Stone Warden (stone warden fights for you /five) for distraction as the first level Stone Warden doesn't seem to cause much of damage to the enemies (about 3-4 damage per enemy) Revive - reviving your allies can be useful, but if you are the only one left and your Fortitude is very low you could try to run back and heal yourself first if that is possible without being targeted by projectile enemies (archers) or enemies who can catch you - the Revive powers are different for the heroes, which may affect the decision which hero to use for the revival: - Baryson: ally gets 100% Fortitude - Marcus: ally gets +200% Defense /three - Muran: ally gets Amplified - Shasek: ally gets +100% Force to all attacks /three - Silent Thorn: ally can act instantly after reviving Weakening Powers ************ Slow Down Enemies - when you are dealing with dangerous enemies, you can slow them down if you have any powers or buff items to do so - for example Silent Thorn can slow down one enemy for one round (Double Shot) or three rounds (Broadhead Arrow) or she can slow down multiple opponents (Volley) - examples of slowing down powers, weapons and buff items: - Muran: - Blink II (Slowed in Short Range) - Starseed Talisman (damage and Slowed to all targets in Large Radius /round) - Shasek: - Bolas (explosive projectile, one target, Hindered, Sundered, +6 Accuracy) - Kick II (Hindered, +2 Accuracy) - Silent Thorn: - Broadhead Arrow (Slowed /three, Disengaged) - Double Shot (Slowed, shoot two arrows sequentially) - Quick Shot (Slowed) - Volley (multiple arrows in Medium Range, Slowed) Weaken One Enemy - you can weaken an enemy before other teammates attack that enemy in the same round or for a longer period than only one round - for example, you are not supposed to use Bolas alone, because the enemy won't be Hindered and Sundered the next round - weakening debuffs are for example: - Blinded (-50% Range, -25% Accuracy) - Demoralized (-25% Radiant Resistance and -25% Chaos Resistance) - Hindered (-5 Movement, -25% Ranged Resistance) - Sundered (-25% Defense) - Weakened (-5 Force, -25% Positional Resistances) - weakening attacks are for example: - Baryson: - Duel II (Sundered, +25% Front Resistance) - Duel III (Weakened) - Rebuke II (Demoralized) - Marcus: - Battle Charge II (Sundered, +4 Defense) - Sunder (Sundered /round) - Sunder II (+2 Force) - Sunder III (Sundered /three) - Muran: Stone Strike II (Sundered, +2 Force) - Shasek: - Bolas (explosive projectile, one target, Hindered, Sundered, +6 Accuracy) - Kick II (Hindered, +2 Accuracy) - Kick III (turns Kick into multi-hit attack, all targets in front of you and to your left and right side gain damage, Knockback, Disengage and Hindered, +2 Accuracy) - Slay II (the first attack causes Weakened, +8 Force, +10 Accuracy) - Silent Thorn: - Broadhead Arrow (Slowed /three, Disengaged, +2 Force) - Eviscerate (Hindered /three, +8 Accuracy, requires Concealed) - Eviscerate II (Weakened /three, +2 Force, +10 Accuracy) - Eviscerate III (Sundered /three, +4 Force, +14 Accuracy) - Void Arrow (Chaos damage, Blinded, +2 Force, +4 Accuracy) - Void Arrow II (Hindered, +2 Force, +6 Accuracy) - Void Arrow III (Blinded and Hindered /three) Weaken More Than One Enemy - you can weaken two or more enemies before other teammates attack them, this means for example the Slowed or Weakened buffs or simply damaging them - examples of weakening multi-hit attacks are: - Baryson: Great Swing (strike targets around you in Medium Radius) - Marcus: Sweep Attack (Weakened) - Muran: Fireball (multi-hit in Medium Radius, +4 Force) - Shasek: - Rend (target enemies with -2 Accuracy, usually hits about two or three enemies depending on how they are located to each other) - Savage Roar (enemies gain Weakened /three in Large Radius) - Silent Thorn: Volley (multiple arrows, multi-hit in Medium Range, Slowed) Damage Over Time ************ - some attacks cause damage over time (DOT) during multiple rounds - damage over time buffs are for example: - Affliction (10 Chaos Damage /three) - Bleeding (10 Piercing Damage /three) - Blighted (20 Chaos Damage /three) - Burning (10 Radiant damage /three) - Cleansing Pyre (10 Radiant Damage /three) - Flesh Wound (3 Piercing Damage /three) - Misery (3 Chaos Damage /three) - Purifying Flame (3 Radiant Damage /three) - examples of attacks that cause damage over time: - Baryson: - Blade of Glory (multi-hit, hit targets in front of you, Purifying Flame, +2 Force, cost 5 Energy) - Blade of Glory II (+4 Accuracy) - Blade of Glory III (Cleansing Pyre) - Great Swing II (Flesh Wound, +4 Force) - Great Swing III (Knockback, +8 Force) - Marcus: Incendiary Bolt (projectile, Burning) - Muran: - Fireball II (Burning, +6 Force) - Fireball III (+2 Accuracy, +8 Force) - Shasek: - Blood Rage II (Bleeding, +10 Force) - Blood Rage III (Knockback, Disengage, +16 Force) - Rend III (Flesh Wound, +2 Force) - Silent Thorn: - Slash II (Misery, +4 Accuracy) - Viper Arrow (Affliction) - Viper Arrow II (+4 Accuracy) - Viper Arrow III (Blighted, +4 Accuracy) - Void Blade (replaces Slash, Weakened, Affliction, Disengage, +6 Accuracy) Healing *** Cheap Healing - Crafting Vial of Copperweed (+25% Fortitude) is relatively cheap costing 5 Remnants compared to for example Bottle of Madaras (+10 Fortitude and +5 Energy) costing 10 Remnants Healer is Missing - if you have no healer in your team, try unlocking healing potions and Crafting them - you can find healing potions from the Abilities or Upgrades screens depending on the hero you are using - Vial of Copperweed (+25% Fortitude) might not be enough in some battles between turns, so try unlocking Flask of Copperweed (+75% Fortitude) later - some Abilities may increase for example Defense and Front Resistance - another tactic is to increase the Damage you cause, so that the enemies will be destroyed earlier, so they can't damage you anymore Healing Drinks - healing drinks may seem useless if you have a healer in your team, but the amount of Energy the healer has is not infinite, so you probably need to use healing drinks also - there are situations after a battle where you can Craft healing drinks and give them to teammates when no Energy is left for healing - you can use Flask of Copperweed (+75% Fortitude) in fights and Vial of Copperweed (+25% Fortitude) between fights - Water of Life II can heal as much as 50% of Fortitude and you get rid of the Poisoned debuff at the same time, so it's not a useless drink at all Healing Items for Everyone - if you notice that one of your teammates has no healing drinks or food there can be situations where your teammates are in a bad shape and you can't heal them, because you have no healing items left, so you should craft some more - check regularly that everyone has healing items and if they don't then let the one with no healing items loot everything until he also has something to use in tight situations Teammates and Allies **************** Ally vs. Teammate - in this game, a hero's power or a buff item can be targeted not only towards your teammates (heroes), but also towards your allies (other non-hostile characters) close enough to your character, your power's targeting point or a buff item - examples of powers and buff items affecting your teammates and allies: - Amulet of Fury (+8 Force to Shasek and all allies /five) - Battle Standard (Protected for allies in Large Radius /three) - Bodyguard II (+4 Defense to allies /two) - Flame Aura (+25% Radiant Weakness to enemies, +25% Radiant Resistance to allies) - Healing Strike (strike and you heal your allies 25% Fortitude in Medium Radius) - Sanctuary (+25% Fortitude and Protected for allies in Medium Radius /three) - Transference (+5 Energy to an ally) Friendly Fire - this game has friendly fire and you will notice that with multi-hit attacks that include strikes and explosive projectiles - you can target Muran's Fireball and Baryson's Great Swing outside an enemy group instead of targeting a certain enemy character, so your teammates won't get damage if you are accurate enough - be warned, if Silent Thorn is Concealed she is not safe from multi-hit attacks - examples of multi-hit attacks that cause damage to your allies: - Baryson: - Blade of Glory (hit targets in front of you) - Great Swing (strike targets around you in Medium Radius) - Marcus: Sweep Attack (strike all targets in an arc) - Muran: - Fireball (multi-hit in Medium Radius) - Shatter (multi-hit with a column of sharp stones) - Shasek: - Bladestorm (attack one enemy and then up to two random targets, while Bloodied) - Blood Rage (damage all targets in Small Radius) - Kick III (turns Kick into multi-hit attack, all targets in front of you and to your left and right side gain damage, Knockback, Disengage and Hindered, +2 Accuracy) - Rend (melee attack all targets in front of you) - Silent Thorn: Volley (multiple arrows hit targets in Medium Range) Enemies Near Your Teammates - because this game usually has friendly fire with some of the multi-hit attacks you may want to know how to deal damage to enemies that are near your teammates and allies - the first thing that comes to mind is using a strike or shoot the enemy with a basic attack, but there are other ways also - examples of attacks that don't hurt your teammates if they are near an enemy are: - Baryson: Healing Strike (strike and you heal your allies 25% Fortitude in Medium Radius, +4 Force) - Marcus: - Lance Assault (Disengage and Knockback to all enemies in Small Range and then attack the nearest enemy with +6 Force) - Muran: - Call Lightning (multi-hit autotarget, chosen enemy and a random enemy or the same enemy again if there are no near enemies) - Flame Aura (Radiant attack at short range) - Shasek: Chakram (projectile, throw blade at your enemy, if target is not killed retrieve the blade for a follow-up attack) - Silent Thorn: - Assassinate (precision attack, Critical Chaos strike, +8 Force, +10 Accuracy, requires Concealed) - Eviscerate (precision attack, attack then step away, Hindered /three, +8 Accuracy, requires Concealed) - Viper Arrow (precision attack, Affliction) - Void Arrow (precision attack, Chaos damage, Blinded, +2 Force, +4 Accuracy) Energy ** Full Attack Energy - if your hero has a full attack Energy and there is only one weak enemy left, another hero with less attack Energy could use a basic attack to increase his attack Energy, so he is more prepared for the next fight Gain Attack Energy - you can gain attack Energy by using the basic attacks that don't require any attack Energy - there are also drinks that give you attack Energy Skills ** Already High Skill - you can increase an already high Skill to increase your odds in situations where that Skill is crucial like in the Skill Checks - already high skills at the beginning of the game for the heroes are: - Baryson: Acrobatics - Marcus: Stamina - Muran: Scholar - Shasek: Athletics - Silent Thorn: Thievery Damage ** Calculating Damage - the damage is calculated based on your Weapon Level - your total damage is your current Weapon Level's damage + your Force + any additional damage by the Power you use - Weapon Level damages are: Level Damage Battleworn 3 - 6 Polished 4 - 8 Fine 5 - 10 Superior 6 - 12 Exceptional 7 - 14 Masterwork 8 - 16 Damage Types - damage types may have different effects on different kind of enemies, try for example Radiant attacks on spiders - damage types are: - Chaos - Impact - Piercing - Radiant - elemental damage means all of the above Minimum Damage - look at the minimum Damage of an attack and compare it to the enemy's current Fortitude when you want that if the attack succeeds the enemy will be finished Unlocking Abilities and Upgrades **************************** Diversity of Powers - you should unlock pretty much every Ability from level 1 and 2 (that don't just increase one of your Abilities), so you have more attack and defend options to choose from for different kind of situations (healing, multi-hit, knockback, projectile, radiant attack, etc.) - example on how to diversify with Marcus: - run far to attack your enemy (Battle Charge) - shoot at your enemy (Barbed Bolt) - first push your enemy and then attack the same or another one (Shield Smash) - combo attack the same or an additional random enemy (Lance Assault) - help your allies to disengage from their enemies (Aura of Command) Early Upgrades in Campaign - upgrading your weapon level from Battleworn (damage 3-6) to Polished (damage 4-8) will give you more damage with the price of only one Godstone and no other resources - after receiving your first Renown points (5 points), there should be one Ability that costs 5 Renown, so look at your Abilities screen - after upgrading your weapon level from Battleworn to Polished you could upgrade your armor level from Battleworn to Polished, but remember to keep an eye on your healing items also - getting another Pocket early in the game allows you to have two items instead of one in battles, so you can have two different healing potions or other items - with Silent Thorn upgrading Eviscerate first rather than Assassinate might be wiser, because Assassinate costs more Energy per use, so you won't be using it all the time (without buffs) Miscellaneous ********* Buff Items - if you activate a buff item it will occupy one of your Pockets, which means you can only use one other item type in your Pocket (if you have two Gear Slots) until the buff item stops being active - in other words, if you have activated a buff item and you have another Gear Slot, you can only have one type of healing drinks or one type of ammo (or something else you have with you) in your Pocket Engaged - if one your allies is Engaged with an enemy, you may have the possibility to hit to the back of that enemy and that way cause more damage Moving - Muran seems to be able to move the farthest distance in a round using Blink Pockets - with a Pocket I mean an additional Gear Slot, but if you have been playing other video games it can take some time to figure out how to get that additional space for your items during the battles - the game calls an additional Pocket with the names like Pouch, Quiver and Scabbard - getting an additional Pocket early in the game can be beneficial when you need more than one pocket for healing and/or other items Probability to Hit - damage is not the only measurement in battles, you also need to weigh the probability for an attack to succeed by looking at the attack information by pressing the ability long enough Radius - there are powers and buff items that have a radius (or range), which can affect your tactical decision whether to use a certain power on a target or not - examples of powers and buff items having a radius (or range): - Baryson: Great Swing (strike targets around you in Medium Radius) - Marcus: - Aura of Command (Disengage in Medium Range) - Battle Standard (Protected for allies in Large Radius /three) - Muran: - Fireball (multi-hit in Medium Radius) - Flame Aura (Radiant attack at short range) - Starseed Talisman (damage and Slowed to all in Large Radius) - Shasek: - Blood Rage (damage all targets in Small Radius) - Burst Chakram (explosive projectile, Small Radius) - Silent Thorn: - Explosive Arrow (Radiant Damage in Small Radius) - Volley (multiple arrows, multi-hit in Medium Range, Slowed) Tough Enemies - you can use for example Shasek's Chakram against tough enemies (Arbolek Stonekin, Bloodguard Soldier knight, Collector spider and very big enemies I will not mention here to avoid spoilers at this point) that can take several hits before they are killed, because Shasek can attack several times with the same Chakram without losing it easily, so you don't need to craft them as often as single use weapons, on the other hand Chakram is not a very accurate weapon ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [I] ITEMS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [I1] RESOURCES ================================================================================ Introduction ******** Resources are the items that will help you increase your Abilities and "Equipment" (Upgrades). You can also use them to craft potions and ammo. Renown ** Renown is what you can think of as experience found in other games. Renown is only used for unlocking Abilities. You get Renown by finishing Quests. See your Quests Screen to see your Objectives. Godstone **** Godstone is only used for increasing your Equipment (weapons and armor) levels, but you also need other resources for leveling (except with the first weapon level). You get Godstone by visiting a Save Point (Destiny Stone) for the first time, so remember to get close enough of all the Save Points you find. Precious, Common and Remnants ************************* Precious, Common and Remnants are used for increasing your "Equipment" (officially known as Upgrade) levels and unlocking new upgrades for your Equipment (weapons and armor). They are also used for Crafting things like drinks, food, buff items and ammo/explosives (for example arrows, bolts and Shasek's Chakram and Bolas). Resource Types ********** Renown - crown icon (gray) - unlock Abilities Godstone - crystal icon (light green) - unlock weapon and armor Upgrade levels Precious - "gold" icon (yellow) - improve weapon and armor Upgrades - unlock Upgrade levels - Craft things Common - "stone" icon (white) - improve weapon and armor Upgrades - unlock Upgrade levels - Craft things Remnants - "chemlab" icon (light green) - improve weapon and armor Upgrades - unlock Upgrade levels - Craft things ================================================================================ [I2] BUFF ITEMS ================================================================================ Description ******* Buff items mentioned in the below sections Crafted Items and Looted Items are magical items like amulets, cloaks, runes, stones and talismans.

Area Names ****** Area names are given for example by activity (FIGHT1), dead end (END1), item (ALTAR, BLACKMESS, CHEST1), large doorway (DOOR1), room (KITCHEN), save point (SAVE1), skill test (SKILLTEST, EAVESDROP), or a person (VYRANDUS). An area name can also be on two horizontal lines instead of one. Symbols ***** - horizontal (-), vertical (\|) and diagonal (/ and \) bars are usually routes, but they may also mean a wall for a big area - asterisk () denotes a room that is not very interesting, but of course it may contain treasures, so check those rooms also - cross (+) means a turn in a route or a corner in a wall - tilde (~) denotes a central place in a map - quotation mark (") means a secret route - words in parentheses (MAP2) mean the route continues to the next map - words in braces {MAINHALL} mean the room is marked in the same map again, because you can go around the whole map clockwise or counterclockwise infinitely like in the mission 1-1-2 The Portal Obstinate Map of the Continent ******************* The Map of the Continent (below) has UPPER CASE letters for bigger areas and Start Case letters for smaller areas like cities, mountains and such. The Shimmering Sea and the Embersley Island are inside parentheses as they are outside the continent. ================================================================================ [M2] MAP OF THE CONTINENT ================================================================================ The map of the continent, or world, is shown on the intro videos for the heroes of this game. The world is called Arilia. Baryson is from the northwest area of the map where you can see Wymark and Edgemont. Marcus is from Gray near Averim Valley, Muran is from Easthaven near city of Illiar, Shasek is from Neskarl Peninsula, and Silent Thorn is from Old Yriel. Illiar -EASTHAVEN- Edgemont -WYMARK- Fallenhill Tekala Spinereach -GRAY- -TARNUM- Citadel Averim Black Sands -MYRODIA- Western Eastern Spine Gunnensalde Spine -OLD YRIEL- Ingarrin Galbador Swamps (Shimmering Sea) -NESKARL PENINSULA- (Embersley Island) ================================================================================ [M3] MAPS OF THE STORY ================================================================================ ================================================================================ SEASON 1 ================================================================================ ================================================================================ 1-1-1 PRELUDE - THE SIEGE OF TARNUM ================================================================================ MAP 1 (TOWN AREA) ================= (MAP2) / LOCKEDCHEST---INTERROGATEE / FIGHT4 / SAVE2 / KEEPER \| SKILLTEST \ SAVE1 \ FIGHT3---DEADKEEPER \ ---FIGHT2 / ALTAR \| VYRANDUS \| FIGHT1 \| ~~~~~ FIRST AREA ~~~~~ The "Town Area" in Map 1 consists of the route from the town square to the Interrogatee.

In other words, there is only one Main Hall on this campaign level. There are two corridor dead ends, marked as END1 and END2. If you want to save your game progress, go "North" from Main Hall or go to the Priests Quarters (PRIEST).

"But Zaquent the Shattered God whispered in Dagaz's ear and filled his soul with hatred. Dagaz forged Arilia's first blade and plunged it into Myrth's heart. The God Wars raged." "After centuries Dagaz was defeated at last. The gods imprisoned him in the Eon Altar, never to stand in the sun again." "Chaos and corruption have seeped from the Eon Altar for millennia. And drawn by their master's rage, the servants of Chaos draw ever nearer." Videos ** Baryson - crusader, Order of Light and Truth Marcus - guardsman, Marcus has a great sorrow, reason told later Muran - battlemage, Muran's family needs justice, more details later Shasek - warrior, Shasek fights for fun, gold and blood, he was in prison Silent Thorn - assassin, Silent Thorn of Silent Sisters is on a mission Story * Every hero has an interest in the Tarnum Fortress, which is built on top of the Eon Altar. Eon Altar is the birthplace of mankind. People are on their way to Path of Pilgrimage. Tactical Tips for This Mission ************************** If you have Marcus, try the Shield Smash against dogs. If you have Shasek try using his Rend (multi-hit melee) first when your other teammates are not near him. If you have a hero that can shoot, try shooting the enemies far away. If your teammates are not too close try the multi-hit attacks, which are for example Baryson's Blade of Glory and Great Swing, Marcus' Sweep Attack and Muran's Fireball. Items at the Beginning of the Mission ********************************* You have no Gear activated (in your Pocket), so you may want to put a healing drink there. You have no Renown or Godstone yet, so you can't upgrade your Abilities or Equipment (Upgrades). Skill Checks in This Mission ************************ Most of the skill checks in this mission are for Athletics, so you may want to lead with an athletic hero, but in the end it shouldn't matter much. If your hero has a low Athletics score it just takes more attempts to open chests. Athletics points for the heroes at the beginning of this mission are: Shasek 12, Marcus 7, Baryson 4, Silent Thorn 3 and Muran 2. With Silent Thorn you can use Thievery to open locked chests. Her Thievery level is 12 at the beginning of this mission. There is also at least one Scouting Check (eavesdropping). With Muran you can make a Shrouding Check (destroy an obstacle). Map 1: Town Area ************ (MAP2) / LOCKEDCHEST---INTERROGATEE / FIGHT4 / SAVE2 / KEEPER \| SKILLTEST \ SAVE1 \ FIGHT3---DEADKEEPER \ ---FIGHT2 / ALTAR \| VYRANDUS \| FIGHT1 \| ~~~~~ FIRST AREA ~~~~~ First Area ****** In the First Area of this mission angry pilgrims are shouting. There is some loot to collect before a fight and after the fight there will be a talk with a Keeper named Vyrandus. Loot - Large Crate (Baryson, Marcus, Muran, Shasek, Silent Thorn) - Small Barrel (Shasek) - Small Chest (Baryson, Marcus, Muran, Silent Thorn) Friendlies - Gray Keeper Enemies - Pilgrim Lesson: Secret Thoughts ******************* Secrets thoughts are only shown on your screen. They look like framed texts. Keep your character's secrets to yourself, or share them with your team. The choice is yours. Lesson: Moving ********** Tap and drag your Move Marker (colorful rotating circle) to target an item. Release your finger from the touch screen and your character moves towards the target. Lesson: Running *********** Tap and hold outside your Move Marker to run in that direction. Release from the touch screen and your character stops running. Lesson: Fighting (See "Fight 1" Below) ********************************** Combat is turn-based. Select an enemy with the Move Marker and the Power Wheel appears. On the Power Wheel select a power or action you want to attack with. Fight 1 *** After the fight you may and you should loot the enemy corpses for resources. You may find some additional resources from this town area below (south). Lesson: Power Preview (PP) and Area of Effect (AOE) *********************************************** Later you will get more powerful attacks and abilities that have an Area of Effect (AOE). Area of Effect means an area that has potential of damaging the targets. To see a Power Preview (PP) of the Area of Effect first target an enemy or an area, then press and hold the attack or ability to see the preview. You need to be in combat to see the Preview of Area of Effect (POAOE). The attack or ability needs to be unlocked and you need to have enough Attack Energy to use it. For example, with Baryson, select an area and then press and hold Great Swing. With Marcus, select a target and then press and hold Lance Assault or Sweep Attack. With Muran, select an area and then press and hold Fireball. Lesson: Character Dialog ******************** Speak your hero's dialogue lines to your friends. This is essential for real classic role-playing style gameplay where people interact face-to-face with each other. The dialogue lines are at the bottom of the controller app screen. Grand Keeper Vyrandus ***************** Go talk to Grand Keeper Vyrandus on right (east) of the fight you just had. You can reveal your mission or agenda or keep it a secret. Lesson: Menu Screen *************** Tap the hamburger icon (menu icon) at the top left corner of your screen to see the Menu Screen. You can access all of the sections of your Menu Screen when you are not in combat. You can access some of the sections while you are in combat.

Walkway (Area "The Pilgrim's Market") ********************************* Point of Interest - Dead Keeper 1 - starts objective "Discover why pilgrims killed this Keeper" - "A dead Keeper, surrounded by the corpses of pilgrims. You cannot make sense of the scene." Loot - Small Barrel - Small Chest Point of Interest - Slaughtered Pilgrim 2 - you spot a leather jerkin under the robe of one of the dead pilgrims - these pilgrims are bandits in disguise - ends objectives - "Discover why pilgrims killed this Keeper" - "Discover how the Guild infiltrated the fortress" Fight 3 *** Enemies - Attack Dog - Cloaked Pilgrim - Guard Dog - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Large Barrel (northeast) - Large Crate - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Save Point (Destiny Stone) Lesson: Destiny Stone (Save Point) ****************************** Destiny Stone is a save point. Your game auto-saves your game progress when you reach a Destiny Stone. If the whole team dies, you end up here. If one of the team members dies, you may get him/her from here. Lesson: Godstone ************ You get one or more Godstones for reaching a Destiny Stone for the first time. You use Godstones with other resources to upgrade your weapons and armor. The first weapon level ("Polished") unlock only costs you one Destiny Stone. Save Point 1 (Destiny Stone) ************************ At this point everyone should be able to unlock one Upgrade. You may need to give Common, Precious and Remnants to each other to do so. Giving is teached later in this Episode. If you have Muran or Silent Thorn you can unlock another "Pocket" (Gear Slot). Reward - reward for reaching this Save Point for the first time: one Godstone Bridge to Northwest *************** Skill Challenge - destroy a cart on your way Lesson: Skill Check *************** Sometimes you need to make a Skill Check to be able to do something like open a chest or remove an obstacle. See "Cart (Skill Check, Obstacle)" below for an example of a Skill Check. You can use your Move Marker to preview your chance of succeeding at a Skill Check. Cart (Skill Check, Obstacle) ************************ Skill Challenge - destroy an obstacle/barricade - Athletics, difficulty 3 - Shrouding, difficulty 0 (Muran) Lesson: Stats ********* Stats screen shows information about your hero's Skills, Attributes, etc. Force, Accuracy, Defense, Base Damage and Resistances are used in fights. Lesson: Skills and Attributes ************************* Skills are Acrobatics, Athletics, Scholar, Scouting, Shrouding, Stamina and Thievery. Skills are used only in Skill Checks, so you don't need them in fights. Attributes are Vitality, Strength, Agility, Insight, Perception and Willpower. Attributes affect your hero's Force, Accuracy and Defense. Which Attributes affect your hero's current Force, Accuracy and Defense depends on which Discipline Tree is used in an attack/defense. Keeper Segran ********* Enemies - Cloaked Pilgrim - Sellsword Skirmisher Friendlies - Keeper Segran Fight the enemies first and a discussion with Keeper Segran begins automatically. Heal Keeper Segran with a healing potion (Vial of Copperweed). Remember to target Keeper Segran first or you will heal yourself. Discussion with Keeper Segran will continue. Guild sellswords attacked the Keepers. Segran reveals there is a Keeper cache and gives the hero who healed him a key to the cache. Keeper Segran will appear later in this mission again. Loot - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Lesson: Using a Healing Item ************************ Activate the Top Menu and go to the Gear Screen. Put the potion, drink or food to your "Pocket" by tapping it. If you have already too many items selected then deselect them first. You can heal yourself by tapping the Self Button and then the healing item (potion, drink or food). Lesson: Crafting Potions and Other Items ************************************ You need to learn the recipe to craft a healing potion first before you can craft it. After unlocking the crafting skill you can find your healing potion power from the Abilities or Upgrades screen depending on which hero you are using and which item you are going to craft. Raw materials for crafting are Common ("rock" icon), Precious ("gold" icon) and Remnants ("chemlab" icon). Statues West of Keeper Segran (Area "Heroes of Virelon") **************************************************** Sheb Rashal - historical character - Tytheri (same race as Shasek) - last of the Sellsword Kings (you have fought against Sellswords) - betrayed Thaddeus Gray - head is like a lion's head - Lady Allevia in a later mission will mention Sheb Rashal Thaddeus Gray - historical character - founder of the Kingdom of Gray (Marcus is from Gray) - short beard, looks like Abraham Lincoln (16th president of USA) - during the Myrodian Invasion, thousand years ago, he found powers from the Eon Altar and used those powers to win his enemies Upward Slope to Northeast ********************* There is a bend on the road towards a bridge on east. Save Point 2 (Area "The Ramparts") ****************************** You get one Godstone here. For one hero it might be possible to unlock the Polished level now for your armor as you did with your weapon earlier using the Upgrades screen. Steps Up (Area "The Ramparts") ************************** Lesson: First Strike (See Fight 4) ****************************** Strike first on enemies that have their backs to you. If you kill the enemy with one shot it is possible he will not alert other enemies nearby. In some rare situations you can sneak past an enemy without fighting (see Fight 5). In Fight 4 if you go approximately to the fifth step on the stairs you probably get the first enemy to make his allies know you are close to them. That can be a good thing, because now you can retreat back by using heroes who can shoot at the enemies. This way there will be less enemies simultaneously around you, so you have more time to heal your heroes if that needs to be done. Fight 4 (Near Interrogatee and Cache) ********************************* Tactics: You may need to fight multiple times in this area until the area is clear of hostiles. There is at least one guard in north moving from west to east and back. It is possible to shoot that guard, but the enemies probably notice it. If you kill the enemies northwest first some enemies may remain east and you should be able to shoot at one or two of them before their turn begins depending on how many of heroes of your team can shoot. Another tactic is to go south first, so you may get a chance to heal your teammates more easily without being attacked at the same time. Enemies - Attack Dog - Pilgrim - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Cloth Sacks - Small Barrel - Small Chest - Large Barrel - Medium Chest (one chest contains the Keeper cache) Lesson: Non-Hostile Characters (See "Interrogatee" Below) ***************************************************** Non-Hostile Characters are marked with Yellow Rings below them. Talking to Non-Hostiles - you can talk to a non-hostile character by targeting him with your Move Marker and selecting the Talk Power on your Power Wheel Interrogatee ******** Exhausted (or Injured) Sellsword Skirmisher - "This sellsword is still alive. A forceful approach might convince him to reveal who his masters are and what they want." - after talking to him avoid killing him in case other players want to interrogate him also, so they will also get Renown - this Skirmisher works for Jormund ("Wolf of Yriel") who will appear in a later mission - he may mention the Portal Obstinate which you will see later in this game Lesson: Talking to Teammates ************************ You can learn more about your teammates by starting a conversation dialog. To discuss with a teammate target a teammate and select the "Talk To" icon. Lesson: Giving Resources ******************** You can give resources to your teammates. To give something to a teammate, target a teammate and select the "Give To" icon. Cache (West of Interrogatee) ************************ When you enter the Fight 4 area you may see a dialogue saying something like "This looks where the Keeper Segrant told you to look. His stash must be around here, somewhere." Only the character who received the key from Keeper Segrant can open the chest and the cursor near the chest has the same color as that character's Move Marker color. Hint: there is a pig being roasted near the chest. Map 2: Fortress Area **************** BIGHALL \| COURT \ KNIGHT \ EAVESDROP \ BLACKMESS \ SAVE4 \ STATUE / BIGFIGHT / ROUNDAREA / SAVE3 / FIGHT5 / (LOCKEDCHEST)---(INTERROGATEE) / (MAP1) Bridge to East ********** - dead pilgrims Fight 5 (Wall) ********** There are some guards at the wall. They are all archers (Sellsword Archer). There is an alternative route to this area from the Interrogatee. Tactics: you see four dead people with arrows on their bodies. You should be able to walk on top of the last body and then use a projectile or an energy beam (if your hero has any of those powers) against the enemies. Enemies - Sellsword Archer Loot - Small Barrel - Small Chest Save Point 3 ******** Point of Interest - The Fortress of Tarnum - Tarnum Fortress started out as a remote holdfast - Tarnum Fortress is built on top of the entrance to the Eon Altar - Tarnum Fortress was built before the Myrodian Invasion - thousands of pilgrims come here each year Loot - Small Barrel - Toolbox Bridge to East ********** Round Area ("The Oasis of Larethia") ******************************** Tactics: one of you can shoot the first Attack Dog and the other heroes can use their hold back ability (Focus, Hold the Line, Meditate, Restoration or Seethe). You can stay on the bridge and wait for the enemies to come closer instead of attacking forward. When the enemies are closer try to use a multi-hit attack (for example Muran's Fireball). Enemies - Attack Dog - Guard Dog - Sellsword Archer - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Cloth Sacks - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Statue of Larethia - let Muran talk about this statue (personal objective) - Goddess of Nature, Earth Mother - Myrth and Dagaz created Larethia together - long hair, a long robe and petal-like leafs Bridge to Northeast *************** Big Fight ***** There are more enemies than usual. Before beginning the fight you may want go back and save your game at the nearest Save Point. At this point you may have enough resources to unlock items in your Equipment screens (weapons and armor). For example, you might be able to unlock Duel for Baryson, Quick Shot II for Silent Thorn, Flame Aura or Call Lightning for Muran and Slay for Shasek. You may also want to use a buff item before fighting. The fight should start when you have walked up all the four steps of the stairs near the Medium Chest (Athletics 6 Skill Check). You can try to go against enemies on the left first as not all the enemies are striking and shooting at you at the beginning of the fight. If you chase the archers on left first, they can't escape from the higher ground. Instead of only shooting at the archers you can try to run towards them and strike them (I mean using only one turn to move and strike when you are near enough). Shasek may be able to take two archers down with the basic multi-hit attack (Rend). Instead of everyone going to the same direction you can scatter around so everyone with multi-hit attacks can more easily use those attacks. If you have Baryson, Marcus or Muran you can try their multi-hit attacks when your teammates are not near their targets and they have enough Energy for those attacks. Enemies - Sellsword Archer - Sellsword Marksman - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Large Chest - Medium Chest - Small Chest Statue ** Statue of the Herald - Watcher of the world - Servant of Myrth - there is a hint that Herald can see far away - looks like a boy or elf with a stick with five branches Save Point 4 (Area "The Watcher's Peak") ************************************ Loot - Large Crate - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Black Mess (West of Save Point 4) ***************************** Point of Interest - Dead Keeper 2 - it looks like a Keeper has turned into stone and there is black mess on the ground after some dark arcane power has been used - now you know what happened to the rest of Keeper Segran's unit Eavesdropping ********* When you are considering which hero to use for eavesdropping, check their Scouting points in the Stats screens. Scouting points for the heroes at the beginning of this mission are: Marcus 8, Muran 6, Silent Thorn 6, Baryson 3 and Shasek 3. Eavesdrop - Skill Check for Scouting with Difficulty 6 Captain Jormund is the Sellsword talking with the Bloodguard with the knight armor. Guild Lord is mentioned. Quest begins: Find What Killed the Keepers. Fight with the Knight ***************** Enemies - Bloodguard Soldier Gates to the Fortress (Area "Myrth's Court") **************************************** You may want to visit the nearest previous Save Point before this fight. Check your Fortitude and Gear also. You can increase your Attack Energy with drinks if you think you need them. Statue at Left - Meldon (wings, spatha-like straight sword and not much of clothes) defeating Zaquent (spider-like, six hands), God of Chaos - Zaquent wanted the whole world dead - Baryson's god Statue at Right - Eihwaz (woman with a double-bladed battle axe, long cloak, headband and leg protection) capturing Dagaz (two daggers), ending the God Wars - Meldon condemned Dagaz deep underground in Arilia for an eternity - Shasek's god Loot - Clay Pot - Clay Urn - Large Chest - Large Crate - Medium Chest There will be a vote about how to get through the gates. There are different ways of getting the gates open. For example Baryson can talk to the guards, Muran can destroy the gates and Shasek can take a "prisoner" with him. Fight against the enemies and go inside. Enemies - Baron Bloodguard Soldier - Lord Bloodguard Soldier - Mongrel Attack Dog - Sellsword Archer - Sellsword Sergeant Inside the the Fortress (Area "Tarnum Fortress") ******************************************** The lighting changes when you go in and you see a big table with candles. Save Point 5 ******** Loot - Medium Chest - Small Chest Walk towards the enemies. Video * The Guild leader with his hovering red orb thingy gets away and the big door gets closed behind him. Fight ("Hall of Penitence") *********************** You will choose a battle shout before the fight. It is still possible to upgrade your Abilities and Equipment after the battle shout if no-one moves too close towards the enemies. For example, you might be able to unlock another "Pocket" for items and your armor level to Polished to increase Fortitude. With Shasek you probably can craft Chakrams if your teammates give you resources if you don't have them enough. You can use Chakrams against the strongest enemies, which are the knights (Bloodguard Soldier) as the hero can make two strikes with the Chakram if the first one doesn't kill the enemy. About two Chakrams should be enough if you use other attacks also. If you have Marcus, you can use Battle Charge against the knights, so they can't hit the weaker heroes in your team so often. Start the fight by going west, northwest, northeast, east or the middle. I prefer going to west or northwest. You can try going very near the west edge so there is as much distance from the enemies as possible before they can get to you. If you see no enemies near your heroes after defeating the enemies on west try the hold back ability instead of moving anywhere. This way maybe only some of the enemy groups come towards you and not all of them at the same time. When they come close enough try to shoot them instead of moving towards them.

Hall of Penitence ************* Grand Keeper Vyrandus - Ask about Old Tarnum - Jormund is somewhere in the Old Tarnum - Ask what lies beyond - city's ancient catacombs - Ask about the Eon Altar - Vyrandus thinks Eon Altar is a myth Keeper Segran - wants to talk about a large feral creature - you vote whether to help or not, but you should be able to go to the Maintenance Tunnels anyway Three Rooms (North and Then West of Hall of Penitence) (Area "Old Tarnum") ********************************************************************** Description - you enter a room that is at the center of a three room group - the central room has two parts with a wall and a doorway between them Jormund - appears and leaves Floor Trap - Scouting check - you can avoid this trap for example with Muran, Shasek and Silent Thorn, but not with Marcus - you need to move very carefully to right/east close to the wall to avoid this trap - if you want the two doors opened, walk on the trap before or after killing the two Sellswords in the middle room Enemies - Sellsword Archer - Sellsword Crossbowman - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Small Barrel - Small Chest Save Point 1 (Northwest of Fight 1) ******************************* Lock Room (East of Save Point 1) **************************** Skill Challenge / Lock - Scholar 12 - Thievery 6 You can attack or wait when you see a man going to pick a lock. Instead of trying to approach the man directly from your starting point southwest you can try to sneak him from behind from east near the east wall, so go east and then approach him carefully. If you have Silent Thorn with you that man should open the door and go inside. Save Point 2 (North of Lock Room) ***************************** You can save your game progress by visiting this Save Point from south or north. Rats There are rats near Save Point 2 (one group) and northeast of Save Point 2. You can kill them all in Dungeon 2 by going northeast of Save Point 2 where you see more rats (two groups), so that the rats should flee to Dungeon 2 when they see you. Switches 1-4 and A-C **************** Lets call switches in Switch Area and Dungeon 1 as switches 1, 2, 3 and 4 to avoid confusion with switches A, B and C in Dungeon 2. Switch Area (Northwest of Save Point 2) *********************************** Switches 1-3 affecting Dungeon 1 - Switch 1 (west): open/close Cell 2 (nearest to the east) and Cell 3 (middle cell on west) - Switch 2 (middle): open/close Cell 5 (farthest to the south) and Port - Switch 3 (east): open/close Cell 1 (nearest to the west), Cell 4 (middle cell on east) and Port Suggested order of using the Switches 1-3: a) Switch 2 to open the Dungeon 1 port and open the cell farthest to the south, b) Switch 1 to open cells 2 and 3, c) Switch 3 to open cells 1 and 4, and finally d) Switch 2 to open the Dungeon 1 port to kill the creatures you have released. You may not want to use all the switches immediately, but kill the enemies that come out each time you have used a switch. Also, some cell doors get opened and closed by more than one switch, so going back and forth from switches 1-3 to Dungeon 1 is my recommendation, but you can experiment as much as you like. If there are more than one playing this game at the same time, you can leave other players inside Dungeon 1 when one of you presses the switches, so you will be able to get into all the cells that can be opened. Dungeon 1 (Southwest of Switch Area) ******************************** Switches 1 2 3 Port Cell 1 Cell 2 Cell 3 Cell 4 (Cell X) Cell 5 Switch 4 In Dungeon 1 there is one cell, Cell X, you can't open. Switch 4 closes/opens the Dungeon 1 port. Enemies - Arbolek Stonekin - Collector Loot - Cloth Sacks - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Dungeon 2 (Northwest of Switch Area) ******************************** (Cell E) Cell C Cell A Keeper Switch C Switch B Switch A Cage Cell F Cell D Cell B There should be about 9 rats near Switch C if you have scared them first near the Save Point 2 and two locations northeast of Save Point 2. The man picking the lock in Lock Room should be here also if you didn't kill him. You may want to have only one hero use Switch A or Switch B and keep the other team members far away from that switch, because Arbolek Stonekin probably strikes at all of the team members near the switch and you probably don't want to lose any unnecessary Fortitude. Switch A (first switch) - open/close cells A, B and D Switch B (second switch) - open/close cells C and D Switch C (third switch) - open/close cells F and D Dead Keeper - ornate key Destroyed Cage - Guild has let loose a large creature Enemies - Arbolek Stonekin - Collector Loot - Cloth Sacks - Large Chest - Large Crate - Small Barrel Audience Chamber (South of Lock Room) ********************************* You will see Jormund here, but he will escape. Enemies - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Chest Room 1 (North of Audience Chamber) ************************************ Crossbow Trap - disarm trap with skill check: Scholar 6, Thievery 6 - evade trap: Acrobatics check Chest Room 2 (East of Chest Room 1) ******************************* Crossbow Trap - disarm trap with skill check: Scholar 6, Thievery 6 - evade trap: Acrobatics check Chest Room 3 (East and Then South of Audience Chamber) ************************************************** Loot - Large Crate - Medium Chest - Small Chest Chest Room 4 (East and Then North of Audience Chamber) ************************************************** Eavesdrop - Skill check: Scouting 6 - two Sellswords are talking Enemies - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Sniper Loot - Large Crate - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Chest Room 5 (area "Training Room") ******************************* Loot - Large Chest - Medium Chest - Small Barrel - Small Chest Master of Hounds Room (Area "Hound's Lair") *************************************** The name of this area comes from the enemy Sellsword Hound Master who can summon new dogs around him.

Vote Area ***** You can decide whether to help or not the mutineering Sellswords against the Bloodguards. If you do not help them you will get more loot as there will be more enemies to kill. Save Point 4 ******** You see pillars and a long carpet here. Fighting Pit ******** Tactics: If you go north to the chests first, you probably don't need to fight the Stonekin at the south wall while at the same time fighting with Slave Hundari Forgeborn and two other Arbolek Stonekins. You can first loot the north chests for resources for Upgrades before the fights. If Arboleks are close to Hundari, take the Arboleks out first, so there will be less enemies causing damage. Enemies - Arbolek Stonekin - Muran's Call Lightning works fine - Slave Hundari Forgeborn - Muran's Flame Aura works fine - Silent Thorn's Broadhead Arrow doesn't seem to slow down this Hundari Talk after fight with the Hundari - the large creature is known as Hundari, but this one is larger and twisted - the Keepers kept it caged Loot - Large Chest - Medium Chest - Small Barrel Treasure Chest Room (Area "Keeper's Treasure Room") *********************************************** Locked Door Scam - this treasure room is a scam by Keepers, the coins are gold-plated copper made to resemble real gold coins - there hasn't been a real treasure for centuries Vote - you can decide to keep the secret of the Keepers or not, 10 Renown either way Loot - Large Chest - Medium Chest - Small Barrel Mutineers ***** You meet some Sellswords that start running. Fight 3 *** If you voted to help the mutineering Sellswords there is a fight between Sellswords and Bloodguards. Otherwise it's your team against all. Enemies and/or Allies - Baron Bloodguard Heavy Soldier - Bloodguard Soldier - Expert Sellsword Marksman - Senior Sellsword Skirmisher If Sellswords are your allies Soulless are mentioned at least if you have Silent Thorn with you. Cask Room (East of Fight 3) *********************** Enemies (and possibly Allies depending on your vote) - Ace Sellsword Archer - Baron Bloodguard Heavy Soldier (or Lord Bloodguard Heavy Soldier) - Bloodguard Soldier - Sellsword Crossbowman - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Loot - Coffin - Large Barrel If you voted to help the mutineers you hear that Guild Lord Davian is here to meet Zaquent cultists.

Enemies and Allies - Attack Dog - Jormund - Mister Muzzles - Mongrel Attack Dog - Sellsword Crossbowman - Sellsword Marksman - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher Talk with Jormund - Davian is more than just a Guild Lord - Davian wants to raise a Soulless army Vote - show mercy to Jormund or kill him Video * - the Soulless are coming - this will end Episode 1 ================================================================================ [S1-2] WHISPERS IN THE CATACOMBS ================================================================================ Episode 1-2 Whispers in the Catacombs Missions ****************************************** 1-2-1 Together We Fall 1-2-2 The Safehold ================================================================================ [S1-2-1] TOGETHER WE FALL ================================================================================ Objectives ****** Group - The Secrets of the Soulless - Discover how Soulless are being Revived - start: talk with Vyrandus in the First Room - Discover Allevia's Secrets - Learn the Truth about Lady Allevia - Descent Deeper - Reach the Lower Catacombs Baryson - Purge the Soulless from the Catacombs - Investigate Zaquent's Wish - start: talk with Vyrandus in the First Room - Purge the Soulless from the Catacombs - Find the Zaquentists before the ritual completes - Purge the Soulless from the Catacombs - Stop the Zaquentists - kill the Zaquentist in "Tomb of Prince Branomir" - Purge the Soulless from the Catacombs - Renew search for Zaquent's Wish - Purge the Soulless from the Catacombs - The ritual is likely complete.

General Advice at the Beginning of This Episode ******************************************* - if you have played this game before Episode 2 was published some things you have unlocked may be locked again, so check your abilities, weapons and armor - check that you have a healing potion unlocked (Vial of Copperweed or Water of Life) - you may have resources and Renown at the beginning, so use them now for crafting and upgrading - Shasek: check that you have Double Slice unlocked About Your Upgrades *************** At the beginning of this Episode with all of your heroes you should have at least the first three levels unlocked for your weapons and armor if you have upgraded them evenly. The first three levels are Battleworn, Polished and Fine. Some heroes may have Superior unlocked for weapons or armor also. Suggested Order of Visiting the Areas ********************************* Go west to Tomb of Prince Branomir first as the Soulless may be easier to fight with (or it makes no difference). Don't go to Chapel of Our Lady of Tears or Tomb of Atonement before visiting Master of Coin, so you can get the objective "Initiate dialogue with 3 Ghosts to learn more about death" (Marcus). First Room (Area "Catacombs of Tarnum") *********************************** Grand Keeper Vyrandus is in this room. You may see the body of Jormund here if you killed him in the previous level. Enemies - Soulless Animus Talk with Vyrandus and the Team - the Soulless you confront here are dead Sellswords - Silent Thorn mentions the Soulless are a plague in Yriel - one of your teammates wants to talk about the fake treasure of the Keepers seen in Episode 1 - if you keep to your promise in Episode 1 you should get some resources as a form of gratitude Second Room ******* Sylvaen the Accountant / Ghostly Voice - Sylvaen is an apprentice to Tarnum's Master of Coin - Master of Coin went to Maiden's Repose to check Lady Allevia's accounts Loot - Ornate Sarcophagus Hall of Martyrs *********** There are five rock sarcophaguses and two holes on the ground.

Combat Arena 1 is about fighting waves of enemy hordes. Combat Arena 2 is about stopping a ritual. Combat Arenas ********* 1 The Hall of Penitence 2 The Cultist Rising Enemies in Combat Arena 1 ********************* Selection of enemies for each Wave is random, so that the Waves differ in each gaming session to make it more interesting. For example, there can be only one strong enemy in Wave 2 or a few weaker ones. Below are examples of some of the enemies you may encounter: - Arbolek Spine Tyrant - Arbolek Stonekin - Bloodguard Commander - Bloodguard Soldier - Champion Bloodguard Heavy Soldier - Collector - Corrupted Harvester - Guard Dog - Harvester - Hound War Dog - Jormund - Man at Arms Bloodguard Soldier - Mister Muzzles - Mongrel Attack Dog - Sellsword Archer - Sellsword Hound Master - Sellsword Marksman - Sellsword Sergeant - Sellsword Skirmisher - Sellsword Sniper - Slave Hundari Forgeborn Enemies in Combat Arena 2 ********************* - Collector - Corrupted Harvester - Slave Soulless Aberrant - Soulless Animus - Soulless Wrack - Whisp - Wraith - Zaquentist Channeler Looting *** You get Common from humans and Remnants from animals. From some human enemies you may get Precious (Bloodguard Soldier). You should get more Precious from the toughest enemies. In Combat Arena 1 make sure every hero gets their unlocks from the Upgrades in the long run to be able to better fight the enemies. You can track your Precious and other resources from the top of the Controller App. Resources at the Beginning of an Arena Session ****************************************** 350 Renown 3 Godstone 100 Precious 100 Common 100 Remnants ================================================================================ [C2] COMBAT ARENA 1 ================================================================================ Introduction ******** In Combat Arena 1 you start a new Wave by selecting the Mysterious Sigil at the middle of the Combat Arena level. There is a Boss Wave every five waves (Wave 5, 10, 15 and so on) where you get more probably Precious and the amount of Remnants should be larger also. If you unlock Crafting abilities remember to craft those items also, so you can use them in combat. Armor and Weapon Level ****************** If you haven't used any of your resources for any weapon and armor upgrades and you haven't used your resources for crafting either, after finishing Wave 5 (Boss Wave) you should have one more Godstone and a possibility to unlock either your weapon or armor level. The cost to unlock anything in the Exceptional level can be too high as you don't get much Precious or Common by looting in the Waves. For example Baryson's Restoration III costs 1 Godstone, 65 Precious and 70 Common. Muran's Stone Strike III costs 1 Godstone, 50 Precious, 70 Common and 15 Remnants. If you are playing on Easy difficulty in about Wave 16 you might be able to unlock one of the Ability Icons in Exceptional level by not crafting any Energy potions. But in higher difficulty levels you probably want to craft Energy potions to keep your Energy as high as possible in case of unexpected and difficult situations. Ability Levels ********** You have the Ability Level 6 at the beginning of a Combat Arena session. If you look at the Abilities screen, you will notice you need 65 Renown points for Level 7. You reach the Ability Level 7 at about enemy Wave 8, Ability Level 8 at about enemy Wave 17 (two waves after the second Boss Wave), Ability Level 9 at about enemy Wave 24 and Ability Level 10 at about enemy Wave 32. Energy ** It can be wise to keep your Energy as high as possible all the time for difficult situations. You may need a multi-hit attack at the beginning of a wave or a bit later when the enemies gather around one or more heroes. You get more Energy by making basic attacks or by drinking potions that give you Energy. Your Energy increasing potion should already be unlocked for you. Depending on your character you can craft a Bottle of Madaras (+10 Fortitude and +5 Energy) or a Myrthvein Vial (+5 Energy). Shasek is an exception: he can't craft either of them. Fortitude ***** You can get more Fortitude by drinking healing potions (or by using Baryson's healing powers). For some of the heroes you need to unlock the appropriate crafting ability for the potion first. Marcus, Muran, Shasek and Silent Thorn can craft a Vial of Copperweed (+25% Fortitude) and later a Flask of Copperweed (+75% Fortitude). Marcus can also craft a Bottle of Madaras (+10 Fortitude and +5 Energy). Baryson can craft a Water of Life (+10 Fortitude and remove all negative status effects) and later a Water of Life II (+25 Fortitude and remove all negative status effects). Healing and Energy Potions ********************** It is possible that not everyone in your team needs to have a healing or an energy potion unlocked. If you have Baryson in your team, you can use Healing Strike often. Pockets *** Let's assume you have two Pockets and the other one contains a healing potion and the other one an energy potion. When you are in combat your Fortitude may begin to decrease rapidly, so instead of first drinking an energy potion and then making an attack in the next round (if your hero still has enough Fortitude to stay up), you probably want to heal yourself or an ally before you are all dead. So, if you won't be using energy potions in combat, then you don't need another Pocket. Sure, you can use a buff item, but you can use it on your ally and that way the ally won't need another Pocket for a healing potion. If you have Muran in your team, she might be able to give you energy if she is not Engaged at that moment. Saving Resources ************ If you want to save resources for later, then maybe you only need to unlock the healing and energy potions first. Then you could upgrade your basic powers next, because you will be using them a lot to increase your Energy. They don't cost you Energy when you use them, but they will damage the enemies more when they have been upgraded. Baryson's Water of Life is important against the Poisoned debuff. Marcus' Battle Charge III gives more Force and Defense. Muran's basic attack Soul Syphon II (Level 7) gives Muran more Energy and increases Accuracy. Blink II helps you move away from enemies, because they are slowed down. Call Lightning III (Level 8) strikes at more enemies. Shasek's Chakram is already unlocked, so I suggest you craft one but only one at the beginning, so you can attack a stronger enemy twice (maybe after killing weaker opponents first with Double Slice), on the other hand Chakram is not a very accurate weapon. Silent Thorn's basic attack Void Blade increases damage and weakens enemies. Double Shot increases damage. Shadowstep III weakens enemies' resistance to Radiant and Chaos damage for two more rounds. Suggested Order of Unlocks ********************** Here are my suggestions for the order of unlocks in Abilities and Upgrades for each hero for the Combat Arena game mode. You can't unlock everything mentioned here immediately or even later, so choose wisely. For some of the items you need to wait until you reach Ability Level 7 after about eight enemy Waves. It will take even longer to reach Ability Level 8 or more.

Costs too much to craft (100 Precious and 50 Remnants). Marcus: Aura of Command III (gain +100% Aggression). This costs a lot of Energy to use and doesn't damage the enemies and doesn't protect your hero much. Marcus: Battle Charge III (+2 Force, +6 Defense). I don't use this much, but more often than Sweep Attack. I usually unlock this later. Marcus: Battle Standard (Protected for allies in Large Radius /three). Costs too much to craft (100 Precious and 50 Remnants). Marcus: Lance Assault II (Disengage and Knockback to all enemies in Small Range and then attack the nearest enemy with _+10 Force_). There are a lot of useless Abilities to unlock first, so consider is it worth it at least in the beginning of a Combat Arena session. Marcus: Sunder II (Sundered /round, _+2 Force_). Doesn't improve the Property much, but costs a lot of resources. Marcus: Sweep Attack II (+2 Force). This attack is difficult to use near allies. I prefer having Baryson in my team, so I can use Healing Strike to heal everyone near him, so I can't use Sweep Attack much. Muran: Stone Warden (stone warden /five, warden makes multi-hit attacks, damage per enemy is about 3-4, cost 12 Energy, location of this power is in the Defense Wheel). Might work as a distraction, but can be quite useless as it doesn't damage the enemy much. Shasek: Bladestorm II (attack one enemy and then up to two random targets, Hastened, while Bloodied). This makes Shasek more dangerous to his allies as Shasek can move farther to blindly damage anyone on his way. This is a risky ability to use, but sometimes it can come in handy for example when Shasek is the last one alive or his teammates are far away. Shasek: Bolas (explosive projectile, one target, Hindered, Sundered, +6 Accuracy). Doesn't seem to be very useful, but remember that this is a weakening attack and your allies are supposed to attack next. The maximum number of Pockets in this game is two, so I prefer Chakram and a healing drink instead. Shasek: Kick III (turns Kick into multi-hit attack) is already unlocked. Avoid using it near other heroes, because it will hurt them! Shasek: Seethe II (Hastened, +6 Force). It might not always be useful to be able to attack enemies farther away from your teammates, because you may need healing and your allies might be too far away to help you in time. On the other hand, maybe Shasek can be the one who heals. This Ability also increases your Force, which means more damage. Silent Thorn: Viper Arrow (Affliction). In Combat Arena mode there is not enough Common to make these arrows much. If you are playing in Madness difficulty try to use about three of these and only in Wave 30 (and maybe later) if you are trying to get the Steam Achievement for 30 Waves in Madness for Episode 1 Combat Arena. Avoid Unlocking Skills ****************** Skills are used in Skill Checks in the Campaign, so you don't need them in Combat Arena. Skills are Acrobatics, Athletics, Scholar, Scouting, Shrouding, Stamina and Thievery. Do not confuse Skills with Attributes! Attributes affect your hero's Force, Accuracy and Defense. Attributes are Vitality, Strength, Agility, Insight, Perception and Willpower. Which Attributes affect your hero's current Force, Accuracy and Defense depends on which Discipline Tree is used in an attack/defense. ================================================================================ [C3] COMBAT ARENA 2 ================================================================================ Combat Arena 2 Introduction Text **************************** "It seems you have entered upon a coven of cultists, preparing a ritual to the dark god Zaquent." "At the center of it all, a gateway hums with the energy of corruption, drawing its power from a series of twisted Destiny Stones scattered about." "You aren't sure what will come through that gate when the ritual is complete, but you're not about to find out, either." Stopping the Corruption ******************* Start cleaning the Corrupted Areas. When you clean the areas you should get a "Purified Shard" which you need to take to the Gateway, which is the second "room" in this level. If you do not clean enough of the Corrupted Areas in time, a Slave Soulless Aberrant will be summoned and it will attack your team. Purified Shard and the Gateway ************************** If you get a "Purified Shard" you will see a blue light above your hero's head. You should also see a text above your hero's head mention the shard. Take the Purified Shard to the Gateway. Activate the "Pedestal of Alms" with the correct hero. Corrupted Area ********** Corrupted Areas will spawn randomly in each Combat Arena session. Every Corrupted Area will have three Zaquentist Channelers (and other enemies), a "Corrupted Destiny Marker" and a "Disrupt Cultist Ritual". If you kill the Zaquentist Channelers, the "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker" and "Disrupt Cultist Ritual" disappear. If you activate "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker", the "Disrupt Cultist Ritual" disappears also. If you activate "Disrupt Cultist Ritual", the Zaquentist Channelers (and other enemies) are easier to kill in that Corrupted Area. You will see "Enfeebled" appear above the enemies for a short time. Tactics: kill two of the three Zaquentist Channelers and other dangerous enemies and then try to "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker" or "Disrupt Cultist Ritual" when it is not so easy to die. Tactics: after finishing almost all the enemies on a cleansed Corrupted Area leave one Soulless Animus or Soulless Wrack alive and start going to the next Corrupted Area and see if that helps with the time limit. "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker" **************************** There are two different Skill checks for the "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker". Skill Check - Athletics 8 (Shasek 13-19, Marcus 10-14, Baryson 10, Silent Thorn 5-9) - Thievery 10 (Silent Thorn 14-18) When you have cleansed a Destiny Marker each hero should get a Godstone. The Destiny Stone may also blow up. "Cultist Ritual" ************ Skill Check - Scholar 6 (Muran 13-19, Shasek 7-11, Baryson 3-9, Marcus 2-8, Silent Thorn 2-8) Disruption of a Cultist Ritual causes "Enfeebled" to Zaquentist Channelers. Time Limit ****** Whenever you see an Ornate Sarcophagus, collect them for a chance of a Soulless Animus to appear. The game will think you are in combat, so you can use each turn for planning your moves to the next Corrupted Area instead of having a realtime running countdown. Increasing Skills for "Corrupted Destiny Marker" and "Disrupt Cultist Ritual" ************************************************************************* With most of the heroes you can upgrade your Athletics, Thievery and Scholar skills for a better probability to "Break Corrupted Destiny Marker" or "Disrupt Cultist Ritual". Here are the minimum and maximum values for those skills. Baryson - Athletics: 10 (minimum and maximum) - Scholar: 3-9 Marcus - Athletics: 10-14 - Scholar: 2-8 Muran - Athletics: 4 (minimum and maximum) - Scholar: 13-19 Shasek - Athletics: 13-19 - Scholar: 7-11 Silent Thorn - Athletics: 5-9 (minimum and maximum) - Scholar: 2-8 - Thievery: 14-18 Upgrade, Craft and Equip ******************** Remember to loot in the First Area. Upgrade your Abilities and Equipment. Unlock, craft and equip healing potions and possibly arrows. Remnants Used in Upgrades ********************* Unlocking some Upgrades consume more Remnants than others. You need to craft healing potions with Remnants to survive, so save enough Remnants for healing. Healing Potions *********** Only one hero needs to be able to craft healing potions, because during a fight no-one can craft anything. So make healing potions and give them to others between fights. Unlocking Silent Thorn's Vial of Copperweed costs more Remnants than unlocking Muran's Vial of Copperweed, so consider which hero to use for making healing potions. Shasek's Vial of Copperweed is already unlocked. Unlocking Marcus' Vial of Copperweed does not cost Remnants. See how far you can get by making Vial of Copperweed so that everyone hero has 10-12 Vials of Copperweed in the beginning of Combat Arena 2. Another Pocket ********** You might not need another Pocket, at least with every hero. Unlocking a pocket usually costs Remnants. Unlocking Muran's Pocket consumes only 10 Remnants. Suggestion for Unlocks ****************** Baryson - Crusader - Blade of Glory III - Knight Errant - Paladin - Healing Strike III - Sacred Light III - Cleric (- Water of Life II (if playing solo)) - Crusader's Vestments - Gilded Buckler, and - Crown of Revelation Marcus - Lancer - Vial of Copperweed - Sweep Attack III - Phalanx - Battle Charge III - Thick Skinned (or Spear Levy) - Soldier - (nothing) - Legion Spear - (nothing) - Centurion Armor - Glasses of Keen Sight - Ring of Alacrity Muran - Fire - Enduring Spark - Fireball III - Stone - Stone Warden - Transference II (if giving Energy to other heroes) - Scholar - Blink II - Aetherwise - Quarterstaff - Focusing Crystal - Battlemage Robes - Scroll Pouch (for a buff item or another potion like Myrthvein Vial) - Vial of Copperweed (if playing solo or you are the only crafter) - Reinforced Joints Shasek - Berserker - Blood Thirst - Double Slice III - Battle-Hardened - Blood Rage II - Hunter - Slay II - Nomad - (nothing) - Tytheri Quickblades - Bullrush - Sellsword Halfplate - Glasses of Keen Sight (or Crown of Revelation, which requires less Remnants) Silent Thorn - Assassin - Assassinate III - Archer - Void Arrow III (costs Energy, which could be used for Assassinate) (or Broadhead Arrow II, which is less accurate, but doesn't cost Energy) (or Intuition and Street Contacts for +6 Scholar and Yrian Constitution for +1 Vitality and Peak Performance for +4 Athletics and Myrthvein Vial) - Rogue - Shadowstep III - Bow and Blade - Moonbow Quiver (if using Broadhead Arrow II, which needs a Pocket) - Double Shot - Leather Armor - Vial of Copperweed (if playing solo) - Periapt of Power for +2 Strength (or Spiderweaveboots for +2 Agility) Enemies in a Corrupted Area *********************** In each Corrupted Area there are three Zaquentist Channelers and one type of other enemies (Zaquentist Channelers summon Soulless Wrack). The additional enemy type in a Corrupted Area can be one of the following: Spider - Collector - Corrupted Harvester Soulless - Soulless Animus Ghost - Whisp - Wraiths Zaquentist Channelers also summon: - Soulless Wrack Tactics: if you see Whisps, you may want to use your Energy before they eat. Zaquentist Channelers ***************** A Zaquentist Channeler causes "Zaquent's Boon" and summons Soulless Wracks. Ghosts ** Whisps eat your Attack Energy. Whisps turn into Wraiths. Wraiths cause damage. Spiders *** A Collector causes Poisoned. A Corrupted Harvester gives birth to Brown Recluse Spiders and Orb Weavers.
