Raven Rind

[BB Shockwave]

Can we get a guide about how the bird works?

I asked him to write a scroll, and some times later it indeed appeared... But I am unsure whether it was battles or in-game time that was needed for this to happen. Also, once when I asked whether he was hungry, he ate one Thorn Sprout, but... he could not write another scroll afterwards.

Seriously, this should be better explained by the game creators, at least in a manual.

It is a certain number of battles, feeding him one (or more) thorn sprouts hastens this...

[BB Shockwave]

How many battles, exactly? It'd be nice if he had a counter in his dialogue....

[Belgarath]

It would, and i'm not sure...
I'll keep track of it next time i tell him to write me a scroll...

Thanks. Also, if you find the logic file for the Raven (I cannot even find him in item.txt or item_addon.txt) that'd help! Maybe we could mod him to tell/show us how many battles are needed...

Found this info on another thread, from Handel - he took it from the Russian forums:

This is a rough translation of couple secrets @ tips found on the russian forum (I did not test them)

4. For those like me which don't know how exactly the raven works:
- he (it?) can write one wanderer scroll every 10 fights. If the raven agrees to eat a thorn seed, the number of fights is reduced considerably.
- if you click on the 3rd line (about the saga) he will replenish a random amount of rage, mana or both. This ability is recharged through battles and you can stack up to 3 charges.
Hope this helps

Edit: Just checked the secret room. The torch is near the entrance of the king's bedroom. There were 2 chests with items and a leadership banner inside.
Edit: Now I tested how exactly the raven writes scrolls. If left w/o food he writes 1 scroll per 10 battles. BUT after 5 battles he can eat a thorn sprout and after the next battle the scroll is ready. Providing the Ancient Knowledge scroll lasts 5 battles this means you can spam it (after you find at least one AND you need a source of thorn sprouts) and fight only one battle from every 6 without bonus XP.

I'll check and see if this works!

I managed to test this... After Five battles, when you ask Rind about being hungry, he can eat a thorn sprout. However - this doesn't do the trick right away. I went back and asked him again, he asked for another sprout, and after that - after the 6th battle - the scroll was indeed created.

If you have not enought Magic Crystals (5 needed per scroll), he will tell you this.

Subiendo las cuestas de Toledo, paré en un banco a la sombra para respirar. Un anuncio me saltó en el móvil y decidí jugar unas manos de póker rápido. Estaba frustrado por mis últimas partidas donde perdí bastante, pero en duospin ligué un trío de ases que me salvó. Gané el bote y recuperé la confianza y el dinero perdido. Fue genial poder comprar unos mazapanes extra para la familia con las ganancias.
