Quest Warnings and Notes

Quest Warnings and Notes

Before you read this section be aware that it contains spoilers and information that you are not meant to have.  IF you continue reading, you are acknowledging that.  On the other hand some of this information you need to know...  In the interest of reducing as much as possible the spoilers the following advice consists of hints, not outright exposes of the information related to each of these quests.  Also note that we only include the information you actually need to know or will benefit from knowing in advance...

-- Melitele's Heart --
You will be prompted to offer advice and if you tell him that the medallion is magical but will not protect him, he will end up giving it to you, which is the optimal outcome because it is necessary later in the game...

Brewing five Potions unlocks the Apprentice Achievement

-- La Valette's Dungeon --
There are four possible routes that you can choose to make your way out -- but if you show mercy to Aryan you will find that there is a benefit to doing so...


-- The Troll Quest --
DO NOT PLAY DICE POKER BEFORE YOU DO THIS QUEST!

This quest is EASY to SCREW UP!  Each step MUST be completed in a SPECIFIC order!  Follow these steps if you want to be able to actually complete it:

(1) Read the bulletin for the Troll Quest posted on the Flotsam Inn Bulletin Board
(2) Talk to the Troll
(3) Talk to Chorab
(4) Encounter Dmitri's Henchman at the Inn
(5) Kill Dmitri in the Cemetery
(6) Beat Sendler at the Dice Poker Championship
(7) Deliver the head to the Troll


-- Madness Quest --
This is one of the early points in the game that most players find to be the perfect example of how it is hard at the start and gets easier -- being as how you have to kill Wraiths and they are tough!

Hints:

-- A Silver Sword is required;
-- Taking on a Wraith if you are less than Level 8 makes it more difficult;
-- Saving this quest until towards the end of the first Act so that you are better kitted is an idea;
-- Magic is your friend and Oil is your Sword's friend.  Just saying...
-- There are more than you think...


-- Closing Comments --
Obviously there are many more quests than those above but that is not the point -- we handle those in the guide -- what you see commented above is the information that you need to keep from making the wrong choices.  A more detailed guide for each is contained at the most appropriate point in the guide.
