Netherworld Tower

Overlord 2 Guide - Walkthrough

Netherworld Tower

The Netherworld Tower is where the administrative side of Overlording takes place. From the Throne interface, you can accept pending quests and teleport to regions that contain uncovered Waypoint Gates. It might be worth your time to take the tours of each section of the Netherworld to better familiarize yourself with the locale. Call up the Throne interface and select one of the quests from the list. While you can get started on the next quest immediately, it would be a good idea to explore your tower first.

In the Foundations, you can visit Giblet's forge to put turn resources into weapons and armour, as well as upgrade your Minion barracks. Both of these activities require Gold and in many cases, Fairy Gems, Dark Crystals, and Minion sacrifices as well. Before any equipment can be created, you first must retrieve the Red Hive. Collect Forge Stones to unlock new recipes. There are only three Forge Stones; refer to the “Forge Stone Locations” section of this guide for more info.

Visit the Forge in the Foundations to create new weapons and armour.

In the Minion Burrows, you can view individual Minions in the barracks, as well as revive dead Minions at the Graveyard. Reviving a dead Minion requires the sacrifice of lesser Minions of the same colour; the number of Minions required to bring a dead one back to life is dependent on that Minion's level. If no new born Minions are available, equipped ones will be used, so make sure you've amassed a decent amount of Lifeforce Orbs before reviving a dead Minion.

In the Private Quarters, you can upgrade your spells in the Magic Room using collected Spell Catalysts (refer to the “Spell Catalyst Locations” section for more information), and decorate the Netherworld Tower. Decorating the tower requires that you first have a Mistress, so there aren't many options to choose from at this point.

Before getting started with the next quest, consider collecting the five Dark Crystals hidden in the Netherworld Tower. Dark Crystals are the rarest of treasures, and used to forge weapons and armour, as well as upgrade your Minion barracks. Furthermore, acquiring 15 Dark Crystals will unlock the Crystal Collector achievement/trophy, and acquiring all 30 will unlock the Ultimate Collector achievement/trophy. Refer to the Dark Crystal Locations section for a complete listing of these.

Use the Throne interface to accept quests and teleport to different regions using uncovered Waypoints and Netherworld Gates.

When you're ready to get started, pull up the Throne interface and select “A Nordbergian requests an audience” from the quest list. Accept the villager's quest to automatically be teleported back to Nordberg.
