Hi

I am a little stuck in the game. I am playing Warrior character. I am level 9 and did almost all quests in Darion, swamps and Verlon area (except staff of destruction and the evil kid in the castle in Mershan swamps. The problem is I want to move to the island and I was there but my army is not strong enough. All my army gets killed and I don't have enough money to buy a new one.So I am stuck in this circle. Can't go forward but also don't have anything usefull to do in the Darion area. Any tips are welcome.

Thanks

Have u tried Arlania? There are 4 zones on the main island, and i think u might be missing 1 zone.

Yes offcourse. I did almost everything in Arlania also (except the wizard staff of destruction quest). The probem is the guard won't let me in the mines. How do you get in?

I can't decide what is better,so I'm asking for advice.There's 2 items for the same slot and I don't know what to use.30+ attack to my Cannonists(making it a whopping 74) who are MVP in most battles,or +1 Morale to all dwarves (3/5th of my army).Is morale that important? I already got them on 'Positive' moral thanks to my dwarven wife,but I can't decide if I should raise it more or not.

Turns out those two itens actually form a set.Ale Barrel and Telescopic Sight,combined,they give a +30% chance of critical strike to my archers.But both items are for the same slot! How can I combine them?:confused:

More morale, is much better. It adds defense, attack and crit chance. So stack it up, if you can.

I too, run with dwarf wife and ale barrel + telescopic sight. Granting me a wooping +2 morale and lots of Cannoneer bonuses. Not to mention the +30% chance on critical strike on archers. Awesome bonus.

You don't combine them. You simply put them both, and you'll recieve the bonus.

Well that's the thing,I can't put them both on the hero because they're for the same slot,and it won't let me put it on my wife as well.What do I do to get this critical strike bonus?

As a mage, I can equip 3 of those item types on my own character. I don't know about warrior or paladin. But I can say for sure, you need to use both, in order for the bonus to work.

Really strange...well,any help will be appreciated,I would love to have this bonus if possible!

Well since you are already on Freedom Islands, what you can do is buy a boat and grab all the bonuses on the islands' edge. Do it for both Western and Eastern islands without engaging the enemies first to give your character a well needed boost.

As for the mines in Arlania, passage will be given once u have progressed enough in the main questline as the mines lead to the dwarf lands, where the mobs are significantly harder.

You'll want to marry a different woman. Check the current last page of the Wives / Children thread for details on which wives have which bonus slots... I know the Pirate wife (Mirabella) has a slot for the Ale Barrel, that's how I am currently getting the crit chance bonus...

Well ok I have done a little sailing and picked up some bonuses. But now I am on the quest where you find Lucky James and you have to get 100000 gold for the dwarven map. That is ridiculous. I am now at around 40000. How did you guys manage to get that kind of money?

Don't worry about the money.

Go back and kill the guy that gave you the Black mark. once you've done that Lucky James will give you the map.

cheers,
DW

please, can someone remind me where Lucky James is? I had found him sometime but I totaly forgot...

I am not sure but I think he is in the eastern islands in a laguna up north in a cave.

I have another question about the strategy. I rely my fights on the army from the Greenwood and Mershan Swamp (I use mostly bears and snakes and cyclops). The problem is I almost always loose around 30 of both bear units so I must go back from the island to the capital to get my army back up. What fighting strategies are you guys using?

get the reserve skill and buy a load of polar bears and or Royal snakes. you can buy as many troops as u want there is no limit on the number for reserve troops. put 2 points into it so u get two slots.

Off course the reserve is the way to go. Thanks a lot. I have another question. Where can I buy Griffins?

Is it better to kill Lucky James or Red Beard?

What about the other quests that give you choices?
1. Which pirate gives you the best prize for the bandanna quest?
2. Should you kill the count in Verlon Forest like the ghost tells you to?
3. Do you get anything special if you capture the frog princess for the prince?
4. What would you get if you refuse to give the Succubus's love potion to the trader in Demonis?
5. Does it matter what you tell the demon recruiter in Demonis?

#5 - Yes. It does. The race you pick, takes over the dwarven kings castle. So once you visit it, they'll be defending it. So, pick whatever race you feel you have a decent anti-setup for :9

Not sure about the others. Didn't reload really to try the different solutions.

outside arlania there is an island . on top of it the griffin king gives u an quest. when u complete u can recruit loads.

there is an banner around i have found in swamp 3 times out of 3 wich gives -30% leadership cost for griffins to. very handy to have.

gl

1.
-one doesnt give anything wich i have noticed yet. might be stuff later in game or something.
-one offer 10000 cash
-one gives an tresure map wich gives and diomond worth 50 000

He (strong guy) provides you protection from other brothers (actually a brother - the smart one). It means one fight less (like it's something good, phi...) and gives you the opportunity to buy things from all 3 brother's shops, If you choose other you will get access only to one shop. The dreamer seems the best choice thought it is worth of checking if others have something really good to buy.

Is it possible to get all three frog bosses in Marshan Swamp to subdue under King's rule?
If so, are there any special rewards?

SPOILERS FOLLOW
While I was sorting out their power struggle mess I noticed one of the conversation options was "I'm sick and tired of blahblahblah, the Swamp belongs to the King blahblah". Picked that and fight began. After I won it there was the blue flag waving at the top of the castle. This was the, umm, eldest of the frog bosses. The youngest one didn't mind being under King's protection. But what about the third frog boss? The one in the middle, actually? Bagaba or Squelch was his name, can't remember. Can he be "persuaded" somehow to accept King as his ruler?

Sign Peace with the Dwarf
 

1)

I have this king quest to sign peace with the dwarf , suppose to go through this mine ( I can't remember the name )

anyone can point where is the location of the mine ??

2) Where is Kraken , the monster that I suppose to kill to marry Mirabella

Thanks in advance

1. entrance is creistion mines entrance in ardania. talk with guard king sent u and he let u in.

2 kraken quest can be getten. talk to mirabella in eastern harbour in eastern islands and she give u hints. then talk with the hunter captein on a ship with quest symbol. he will sail to kraken spot and die. from there its up to u. its in northwest eastern islands.

That because you keep searching the islands
 

You wont find the tears in the island.

***Spoiler***
The tears is not in the island of freedom...its in arla***

What should I be doing to keep the morale of the living item,Tactics Treatise,in tact?I was left rather confused from the info text.

i have founf a quest i havent done yet.

the griffin king second quest to make a portrait of him. in 3rd quest part i gotta find iron ore for some rude little dwarf in arlania.

any one know whereto find the 7 iron ore parts? in creiston mines?

Yes they are all in Creiston mines. Look for the red pieces of ore that are on the small wooden vehicles.

can someone tell me where to find the elf place it is the quest where the king's daughter has been kidnapped.

Thanks

If you mean the elven continent, you can travel there the same way you travel to the islands of freedom - by talking to the captain in Greenwort.

I was there before but forgot and am totally lost, how do I get to Lower Kadar?

Its driving me nuts I keep exiting at Upper Kadar which I have cleared.

Many thanks for any help.

GB

Use lifts (or elevators, if you are American...) from Upper Hadar to Lower Hadar, there are plenty of them.

at last thanks very much Kolorabi.

where is this Sheragga guy from the quest "Annore and Hneya"?
searched thru the death valley but couldn't find him.
help please

hes in the gray wasteland by the cemetary. you cant really miss him, hes on the main road in the south (i think).

okay found him, thanks!

Are these in order, i.e. when standing in front of the obelisks? From left to right or vice versa? I'm missing 2, but god knows which :S

Uhh... probably no "adventure" skills but I am level 10 stuck on western island (freedom islands) and can't seem to find the npc that takes you back to Darion. I've done the king's quest and all, just have to get back to Darion. Thanks in advance.

The NPC that takes you back to Darion is right where you originally popped out, on the beach near the major castle on the main island. Sorry I can't be more specific but it's just a guy standing there. :cool:

His name is Merchant Valdes.

Thanks a lot Zhuangzi. So much for reading NPC lines -_-.

Just one question, now there is a bug in my game. One of the elavators that leads to the truth arena on the dwarf land has been stucked by a evil beholder. It's just on one side of the elevator and I can neither attack it nor make the elevaor moving. Can anyone tells me if I can correct this bug? If I can't, can anyone tells me what you get for completing the truth arena quest? 'cause I really want to know what I'm missing here. Thanks a lot

Don't know if you can correct it. In my first game there was a magic crystal in an underground area that just could not be clicked on, so I suspect there is a slight problem with the interface. On a side note, I occasionally get enemies on the adventure map run towards me and straight past without attacking. Weird.

About the truth arena, you fight yourself, as in, an exact doppelganger of the stacks you have. You have to have used up your full leadership potential I believe. Anyway, the fight is easy because your hero gives your own troops improved attack/defense etc, plus you have spells/ragebox. I think you get 3 of each rune as reward.

You can fight in the arena again later, although at first I was told that I wasn't strong enough. The second fight is against DOUBLE your stacks. This is probably doable but I couldn't be bothered having to rebuild my stacks again, so I left it. I think I read somewhere that you get 10 of each rune for completing this but I'm not sure.

So in summary you aren't missing a great deal unless you desperately need the runes. ;)

Actually, more is always better than less,right? I hate it when this kind of thing happens. I guess I will just use the cheat code to reward myself 13 runes of each then. BTW, Thank you very much for helping me.:grin:

happened to me once but i restarted the game he wasnt there phew!

obelisk question:
according to amamake's post, the only obelisk that i have left unvisited (number 10 from left to right) is the one "next to the pyramid", which I am sure I have clicked as it is sitting in front of me right now (it is the one surrounded by all 13 obelisk lights right?). I even have the last one in the grey wastes turned on... I really would like to find out which one I have left untouched. Any help would be most appreciated.

i figured it was a better idea to go through every obelisk again and found out that i was missing the east island one (i was kind of weak at the time). so that means that in amamake's post while the locations are true, the numbers are not given according to the obelisks. so if you are missing let's say the second one from the left that doesnt mean it will be number two in the below list. hope that helps.

you get 2 of each rune for the first battle and 3 of each for the 200% battle.

I have the same problem - the tenth obelisk is not illuminated, but I've definitely clicked the obelisk in the middle of the circle.

When I click the obelisk by the pyramid it highlights the third gem, which seems to indicate that the obelisk mappings might be random. :(

hello everyone
 

where can i find dwarf king?

quest: treaty with the dwarves
return home to kronberg(?) with the signed treaty

You need to go into Creiston Mines. The entrance is in Arlania. :)

yep i'm in there but i couldn't find him :confused:

you must go through Creiston Mines and find entrance to Lower Hadar. In there find entrance to Kordar and in Kordar find stairs which leads to near his castle.

kordar is a island? how can i find kordar? so confused

gonna mad

finally completed :rolleyes:

I have already blown up the Alchemist bottle in the swamp lands..... so I can't get to talk to the zombie in the swamp lands, I mean to get the meat and feed him. Is there a way that I can get this one completed ?
Edit - I kinda figured it out. I was VERY lucky and got 2 arties from one battle. I got the Vampire ring from a chest IN battle ;) and the Pain Skull after killing the zombie, not too shabby imho :)
Question : Could someone tell me if the Pain skull is worth upgrading ( seems kinda hard to do with that -50% from mana each battle ) and also what does it give me after I have upgraded it to Death Skull ? I think I have read somewhere that it's +5 to attack and +5 to Intelligence .... but does it still take away 50% of my mana ?

hello guyz.... i'm new here.... i've been playing KB (normal) for almost 2 weeks now :p, i'm at level 27 in demonis...

i've just got the pain skull from the land of the dead, i forgot to use it and i'm now about halfway in demonis ( about 2 monsters left but i haven't done the quest in demonis yet... )

Is it still possible to change the pain skull ?? because i hear that it needed about 50 battles or so, do i have another 50 battles ahead ?? or should i forgot the skull ??? because the monster is harder now and i can barely make it if i battle with the pain skull ( -50% mana, i'm a mage )

thanks for the kind answer, hope you can help this noob... :)

Well, there's two mobs left in Demonis, and I'm guessing the Xeona and Baal battles, there's another 3 in Ultrax, there might some leftovers in the land of the dead if you haven't cleaned it out completely, like the dragon mobs and the stronger heroes. Then there's the Dragon labyrinth with quite a few mobs and the orclands whatever that island is called, depending on your luck, you might make it. Check around if you forgot anything like the ships on freedom island or the gremlin's castle. It's best to start early though, if you rely too heavily on your starting mana you probably won't be able to pull it off at this point.

i can still make it ?? i think the pain skull needed about 50 battles or so, my pain skull only at 90% after 5 battles...... sadly, i've cleaned up all in land of the dead and the pirate island.... thx for the tips though, really appriciate it...

Well, there's like another 15 or so battles in the labyrinth, don't know how many on the last continent, you'll have to wait for someone else to give you a more accurate estimate.

great, thx for the info.... i'm working on it :-)

I killed the guy for Annore and Hneya quest but now cannot find Annore:-(
Spoil me please where he was.

Is that the elf bard? If so, he's dead and burried next to her grave which just a few feet away from where you first met him (close to the book of death - in magic valey, I think).

Dear Keneth & Gamers of KB,

I need help for adventure maps.

After i enter Murock, can i still return to my homeland Greenwort through Haas' Labyrinth? I always end up lost in Haas.

Thanks in advance.

Danny

If you have defeated all of Haas' incarnations, you will recieve a magic word to instantly travel through the labyrinth. Although it's not that hard to go on foot, just memorize one path that leads through.

Starting from the last room (orc's side):
1 - E -> exit S -> 2
2 - W -> 1 S -> 3 E -> 4
3 - S -> 2 W -> 5
4 - S -> 5 E -> 6 W-> 5
5 - S -> 3 N -> 4
6 - S -> 4 N -> 7
7 - S -> 9 E -> 6 Central -> 8
8 - W -> 11 N -> 9
9 - S -> ?(4) E ->10 N -> 7
10- S -> ? W->? N -> 9
11- W -> 8 S ->12
12- N -> 11 E -> out (from here you'll get outside, on the mountain, then it is pretty straightforward)

So, the fastest way out is
(read from right to left, NumberOfRoom_ExitDirection):
12E -11S - 8W - 7Central -6N -4E - 2E - 1S

to be clearer from orc side head : S E E N C W S E

Dear Lari, Keneth & Gamers of KB,

Thanks for your help on Haas Labyrinth.

Got a question about ArchDemons. Where can i recruit them. Castles in Demonis do not offer ArchDemons.

Thanks in advance.

Danny

Hey guys, I know I can upgrade spells to lvl2 n 3 buy clicking the small arrow next to the spells. But I can only upgrade some of them...for eg, i can upgrade slow, but not fireball. I read elsewhere that fireball can go up to lvl 3. Do I need lvl2 n 3 scrolls for that?

Archdemons are not worth recruiting and there is no sure place to get them, there's usually a few in demonis other than that they're scattered around if they spawn at all.

Upgrading spells requires the corresponding skill to be at a sufficient level, e.g. level 3 distortion for lvl3 slow and level 3 chaos for lvl3 fireball.

I killed them all, returned to the dragon and supposedly learned the magic word, but how/when do I use it ??

You choose if you want to use it before you enter the Dragon Labyrint. So just get out of the labyrint on either side (orc or elf) and enter it again, you will get the option to use the shortcut.

Thanks for the quick reply ;) The dialog box appear when you click the "portal blur" on either side indeed.

I have been all over Grey Waste and Death Valley. Cannot find the last obelisk. Does anyone know if at "hard" level it is in a different spot? A screen shot would be appreciated. Thanks.

:S
 

Hello to everbody ;D

Hmm im Still having problems in a main quest...
the "slave-trade"....
I Dunno What do...
On the quest says that i must find a man Called Rootten Hake < i think the name is it > And he was hiding in a forest...But i don't know where is the forest...

Thanks who will help-me

and bye ;D

He is just slightly northwest of the main king's castle. Same place where the unsolvable Rina quest is at ;)

After I made the witch's quest to blow the alchemist's...thing in Marshan swamps I found out that there's a zombie which is supposed to give a quest, but only if I talk to the alchemist first. But I can't get the option for the zombie quest, I can only buy stuff from the dwarf or leave. Is this a bug or you just can't complete both quests...?
And I do have another question...In the islands of freedom I got a quest to give a pirate 60,000 gold or do a quest for him. So I chose to do his work and he told me to go to Eastern Islands, find a cave on an island marked by cross and skull and bring him 5 shrubs...Well, as you may figure I can't find the damn island, so if you can point me in the right direction I'll be very grateful :)

Try East of the Eastern Islands

Treasure Map
 

Can someone help me find the diamond in the treasure map given by one of the children in the bandanna quest?

Thanks.

There really is no need to post the same thing twice.

Where is the stupid ghost ship made of black gold in the freedom isles?

I have the raise scroll, but I can't figure out where to go to use it!

Outside an islet where the broken sunken house is. Sorry, can't be anymore specific at the moment.

I have to save the elves queen.I found the book of death and I'm in Death Land. Where is the General who I have to find?

There is only one castle in Death Land and he's there. It's in the far corner of the map, but there's a acces from the sea and it's best option if you wan't to avoid most enemies (you can buy a boat from a guy not far from one of the Books Of Life)

Thank you.The enemies are not so easy to defeat,so the sea route was a helpful tip.

okay did i mess my game up or what because i did everything up untill the kings daughter got kidnapped well i went and rescued her and took her back to the king and now all ym game will do is just roll credits then take me back to main menu then when i reload my completed game it does the same thing if i go back into the main castle i was wondering if i needed to start a new game or what cause i have 15+ quests that i wanted to finish but i cant because when i reload back at the Darion Capital i cant go anywhere because the royal guardsmen wont let me move past him without telling me to go to the king can anyone help me if this forum is even still alive?
