Late-game quests help

She-Wolf · Post by **She-Wolf** » Tue Apr 07, 2009 9:57 pm

I found a quest list on a german forum which says that there is a "Find a Bridegroom" quest in Murolosh open after the Gruldur Deeps one is done. Anyone managed to find/do this one?

Also, are there any rules/tips on collecting 20 crystal shards Behind the Fire Falls? I thought smashing the crystal spire thingie before engaging/killing any of the ghosts would do the trick but... it appeares that is not so.
On a similar note, my first time through the game, I had those ten extinguished fire hearts with me, yet none of the merchants was willing to offer any serious ducat for them. Is there a merchant esepcially interested in them, like with the shards, or not?
On another similar note, during my talk with the guardian, I had the option of offering him the second cyclopean skull, which I did. Would the dwarf priest take the second one had I brought it back to Murolosh instead?

Finally, those Grolm switches behind the Fire Falls - any rule of the thumb for activating them properly? Last time, I went through it by trial and error, but I'm wondering if there is maybe a neater way to activate them - one that doesn't involve me getting poison-zapped every second time or so.

-"Find a Bridegroom" quest :
the female dwarf that is supposed to give this quest never mentioned it, bug in new patch?

-crystal shards
Kill all Grolm waves. kill the Grolm King only then destroy the crystals, in my game crystals destroyed before killing the king never gave shards

-firehearts
if memory serves you need 20, so the first 10 and when you used the new firehearts to open the bridge or whatever that was about, they are extinguished as well for a total of 20 extinguished hearts. one dwarf makes an offer then.

-Grolm switches
on top of the switches are grolm numbers (as on all these stones in there) the number you see standing in front of the switch indicates what segment of the switch to activate. (the topmost, the second from top etc.) You will forgive me - i don't remember the grolmsysmbols or which number they represented, but that shouldn't be to hard to figure out.

Thanks for the tips!

I went through the Fire Falls again and managed to figure out the switches this time around. I'm still baffled about the shards, though - how I gathered all 20 this time around, I'll never know. Possibly, I hit the king and then the crustal spire before touching any of the ghosts. When I tried to focus on ghosts themselves, they only kept spawning endlessly and the crystal spire was left crystal-less. *shrug*

each grolm group respawns 4 times i think. best is you have some of these intelligence potions or whatever they were called, those that make immune to Lightning Find You for 10min.

You have to talk several times to the female dwarf that stands next to Aldessia. If you are nice to her, she will give you this quest after returning from Gruldur.
