Nordom

Post by Andarian »

I am having trouble getting Nordom to give me things, like the twisted gear of something eva. I heard you have to beat the evil mage construct with him in the party to get the extra chat things, and I have, but I still can't get him to cough my spell up. Can anyone tell me what I have to do to make that lousy box give me what I want?

An easy way to get the int/wis you need is to acquire +2 tattoos. Of course, that's assuming your int/wis isn't too incredibly low to start with.

That's impossible, I have 25 of both wis and int, and I have tried casting friends for 25 cha as well! For some reason all it'll let me ask him about is what he is doing with his crossbows, how he wound up in rubikon (Which I have powered him up through, but still haven't gotten the items), what modrons are, what mechanus is, and how he is doing. I haven't been able to get anything from him other than powering him up through asking about rubikon, which is useless because I intend to dump him the moment I get my items anyway....

First of all, you should have talked with the Evil Wizard Construct about the past and to make it perfectly clear that the EWC killed the previous director.
After that, you should say to Nordom in no uncertain terms that now you are THE director of the Rubikon. If you found Nordom before the encounter with the EWC and chatted with him, this thread is "buried" under one of those you covered before.
Next, you should get an option to increase his stats and to proceed a "wayward recovery". Among the pieces of "junk" he will produce trhere is one "unstockable" item which looks like a piece of junk but in fact is the precious Enoll's Eva Duplication.
Ovbiously, you should be a mage for this.

P.S. Offtopic

Sorry for offtopic, but are users here allowed to edit their messages in order to correct the spelling errors? Apparently no...

How do I tell him I am the director? Where do I get this thread exactly?

All I have done is get nordom and then chat with and kick the butt off the EWC. For some reason, I can't ask about wayward item recovery or anything, only the few chat threads I listed before.

Hey, I have thouroughly covered all the chat threads I mentioned at least 5 times each, going through every possibility. There is absolutely NO way to say I am the director that I noticed, and it's VERY frustrating!! Can't anyone give me a shot-by-shot guide to telling him your the directer?

Alya, just look under your final message as-posted. There should be an EDIT option. Choose that, and you can change your post.

In the future, please post such questions under GameBanshee Discussion, okay? Thanks! :)

The Nordom conversations are probably the trickiest to manage in the game. It's true that you need to get the EWC to discuss his background and actions. After he's killed, you'll find at least one extra branch buried in Nordom's multiple choice dialog tree. If I'd played recently, I'd give it to you, but I haven't. :(

FINALLY got it to work.... it was a bug I think. I had to beat the evil wizard again and again and again before it activated the thread.... the patch would fix it no doubt, but I can't find anywhere to download it from that actaully works.
