This is the second FAQ I've made so far so it should look alright and provide lots of info. The main purpose of this FAQ is to help people easily find specific pieces of minion equipment. I don't know if I'll be adding the stats of each equipment since that would take lots of time and testing. Well, enjoy the FAQ! ========================================================================= ========================================================================= [EI] EQUIPMENT INFORMATION ========================================================================= In Overlord destroying breakable items and defeating enemies might yield pieces of equipment for your minions to use. By equiping your minions they become stronger and last longer in battle. To pick up equipment simply sweep your minions over them and they will automatically equip themselves. Note that sweeping minions over better equipment will discard any old, less useful ones they have. These discarded pieces drop onto the floor for other less equiped minions to pick up. Pieces of equipment can be easily seen by a bright shine they usually emit when on the floor. Note that most equipment is only visible on Browns. Reds, Greens and Blues may pick up equipment, but it might not be visible yet it will still have an effect. There's five types of equipment: weapons, helms, gloves, armguards and armor. ========================================================================= ========================================================================= [HT] HOW TO USE THIS FAQ ========================================================================= The lists of equipment will follow the following format. Here is an explanation of how it works. Name: (Name of the item) Location: (Where it can be found) Source: (Who or what drops it) ========================================================================= ========================================================================= [EL] EQUIPMENT LOCATIONS ========================================================================= The following lists are currently organized by location. I will be working on a ranking system for their strength later on. Note that all enemy related equipment can be obtained in the Dungeon with the exception of the piece of equipment Blaster Bugs drop. ****************************************************** WEAPONS [WP] ****************************************************** The following pieces of equipment are all the things your minions can use to whack, bash and slash enemies. These are held on your minions' right hand: Name: Wooden Club Location: Brown Spawning Pit Source: Brown's Initial Equipment Name: Hatchet Location: Mellow Hills Source: Barrels and boxes, Halfling Swordsmen Name: Pitchfork Location: Mellow Hills Source: Boxes in Spree, Peasants Name: Small Mace Location: Mellow Hills Source: Metal jars and boxes Name: Small Blade Location: Mellow Hills Source: Boxes, Halfling Swordsmen, Halfing Cooks Name: Short Sword Location: Mellow Hills Source: Halfling Swordsmen Name: Long Sickle Location: Mellow Hills Source: Boxes in Spree, Peasants Name: Cleaver Locatoin: Halfling Homes(2), Melvin's Kitchen Source: Halfling Cooks Name: Cooking Roller Location: Melvin's Kitchen Source: Boxes and jars Name: Bladed Spear Location: The Dungeons of Spree Source: Boxes and jars Name: Bow Location: Evernight Source: Skull Rats Name: Unicorn Horn Location: Evernight Source: Bloody Unicorns Name: Skull Staff Location: Evernight Source: Skull Stags Name: Metal Hammer Location: Slave Camp, Evernight Source: Boxes in Slave Camp, Skull Boars Name: Zombie Arm Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Zombies Name: Sai Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Boxes in town in the survivors area Name: Black Broadsword Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Fallen Knights Name: Pickaxe Location: Slave Camp, Golden Hills Source: Peasants in Slave Camp, Boxes, Dwarven Miners Name: Shovel Location: Golden Hills Source: Dwarven Miners, Boxes Name: Crossbow with Bayonet Location: Golden Hills Source: Dwarven Crossbowmen Name: Double-Headed Axe Location: Golden Hills Source: Dwarven Warriors Name: Ninja Blade Locatoin: Ruborian Desert Source: Ruborian Fighters, Ruborian Bombers Name: Golden Scimitar Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes Name: Golden Halberd Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes ****************************************************** HELMS [HL] ****************************************************** Every minion knows they need proper headgear if they want to survive in this world. Here's all they can wear on top of their little bald heads: Name: Pumpkin Head Location: Mellow Hills Source: Breakable pumpkins Name: Spiked Steel Helm Location: Mellow Hills Source: Boxes and metal jars Name: Slick Steel Helm Location: Halfling Homes Source: Boxes and jars Name: Bucket Location: Castle Spree Source: Jars Name: Pan Location: Castle Spree Source: Jars Name: Bull Nose Ring Locatoin: Mellow Hills Source: Trolls Name: Chef's Hat Location: Halfling Homes(2), Melvin's Kitchen Source: Halfling Cooks Name: Dead Rat Location: Mellow Hills Source: Rats Name: Rat Skull Locatoin: Evernight Source: Skull Rats Name: Stag Skull Location: Evernight Source: Skull Stags Name: Boar Skull Location: Evernight Source: Skull Boars Name: Steel Helm Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Fallen Knights Name: Knight Helm Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Fallen Knights Name: Theatre Mask Location: Half-way to Heaven Inn Source: Boxes in the dungeon portion of the area Name: Red Hood Location: Halfway to Heaven Inn Source: Red Priests Name: Mining Helmet Location: Golden Hills Source: Dwarven Miners Name: Slug Head Location: Golden Hills Source: Sluglets Name: Eagle Helm Location: Golden Hills Source: Dwarven Flamers, Dwarven Warriors Name: Ninja Mask Location: Ruborian Dessert Source: Ruborian Fighters Name: Golden Spartan Helm (Sideways) Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes Name: Golden Spartan Helm (Straight) Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes ****************************************************** GLOVES [GL] ****************************************************** Whether you're cleaning, gardening, pillaging or just bludgeoning a sheep for it's soul, gloves will always make it look cooler. The following are worn on either of a minion's hands: Name: Brown Leather Glove (Left hand only) Location: Mellow Hills Source: Barrels and boxes Name: Metal Glove (Right hand only) Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Zombies Name: Spartan Glove Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes ****************************************************** ARMGUARDS [AR] ****************************************************** What better way to avoid having your arm severed by slugs than using an armguard. These are worn on your minions' right hand: Name: Bound Metal Armguard Location: Mellow Hills Source: Boxes and jars, Halfling Swordsmen Name: Spartan Armguard Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes ****************************************************** SHOULDERGUARDS [SH] ****************************************************** Back problems? Great! These shoulderpads will definitely not help with that. Note each minion can equip up to two of these, hence the two shoulders: Name: Metal Shoulderguard Location: Heaven's Peak Source: Barrells in Refugee Camp ****************************************************** ELBOWPADS [EL] ****************************************************** Protect your elbows from any scrapes with the following: Name: Metal Spiked Elbowguard Location: Understreets(2) Source: Jars ****************************************************** ARMOR [AM] ****************************************************** Never go naked into battle, unless you're fighting a Succubus, if you catch my drift. Your minions wear these on their torso of course: Name: Leather Vest Location: Mellow Hills Source: Metal jars and boxes, Halfling Swordsmen Name: Spartan Armor Location: Ruborian Desert Source: Boxes ****************************************************** HERO [HE] ****************************************************** The following pieces of armor are drops from heroes. Therefore, they are one time only pieces of armor that once lost can never be recovered. Hero: Melvin Underbelly Location: Melvin's Kitchen Equipment: Melvin's Fork Melvin's Crown Hero: Sir William the Black Location: Angelis Keep Equipment: Sir William's Staff Hero: Goldo Golderson Location: Goldo's Stronghold Equipment: Goldo's Axe Goldo's Crown ========================================================================= [ME] MINION EQUIPMENT UPGRADES ========================================================================= Depending on what Mistress you choose you will be able to raise the strength of your minions' starting equipment. Here are the possible options. ********** Rose ********** Browns' Equipment Upgrade: Happens automatically once you choose her over Velvet. All your newly spawned Browns will be wearing full mid-level equipment when taken out. Blues' Equipment Upgrade: You can buy the upgrade from the Tower Upgrade Menu for 5000 Gold. Once bought, all your newly spawned Blues will be wearing full mid-level equipment when taken out. ********** Velvet ********** Reds' Equipment Upgrade: You can buy the upgrade from the Tower Upgrade Menu for 5000 Gold. Once bought, all your newly spawned Reds will be wearing full high-level equipment when taken out. Greens' Equipment Upgrade: You can buy the upgrade from the Tower Upgrade Menu for 5000 Gold. Once bought, all your newly spawned Greens will be wearing full high-level equipment when taken out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional to this, retrieving the Beer Kettle object from the Brewery in Golden Hills to your Tower will equip all your newly spawned, un-upgraded minions with full mid-level armor. Please note that there is a very dangerous glitch in the Brewery area. Once you enter, make sure you do NOT leave or turn off your game until you have retrieved the missing spokes for the broken wheel near the entrance AND have turned it completely. Failure to do so will result in a glitch that will make the spokes disappear permanently, thus completely halting game progress. ========================================================================= [OI] OTHER MINION EQUIPMENT ========================================================================= Besides pieces of equipment, minions can also pick up two other items and use them automatically. Name: Beer Mug Location: Mellow Hills, Heaven's Peak, Golden Hills Source: Crates, On tables, Drunkards, Dwarves of any kind Effect: Your minions drink it's contents to gain a power boost and a yellowish aura. They will end this state by taking a wizz. Name: Large Chicken Leg Location: Halfling Homes(2), Melvin's Kitchen, Golden Hills Source: On tables, Halfling Cooks Effect: Your minions munch on these for no apparent effect. ========================================================================= [UH] ULTIMATE HORDE EQUIPMENT ========================================================================= The following pieces of equipment are needed to get your horde to 400% efficiency and get the Ultimate Horde Achievent. They can all be located in crates in the Ruborian Desert, mostly in the Village. Helm: Golden Spartan Helm (Either) Armor: Spartan Armor Gloves: Spartan Gloves Armguard: Spartan Armguard Weapon: Golden Scimitar or Golden Halbert It is easier to reach 400% efficiency if your horde consists of 30 Browns and 20 Blues. ========================================================================= [CR] CREDITS ========================================================================= The following people contributed one way or another in completing this FAQ: TG x Jersey PipBoy2k DrunkMonkGar meralonne Kresselack ghettocloud5 Renamon Dog_Reservoir Many thanks to all of them for their help and support. ========================================================================= [CI] COPYRIGHT INFORMATION ========================================================================= This guide is Copyright 2006 Michael Atiles.
