I dun bad

Post by Invincible121 »

This is a kind of warning to people about fighting one of the liches on the Kangaxx quest.

Its about the liche with the name, i can't remember which one but you needed a rogue stone to get to him.

Anyways, as i went in the rogue stone disapeared like it should, i lost the fight and reloaded, this happened quite a few times.
What i didn't realise was that it saved after using up the stone, so everytime i reloaded and went back in it used up another rogue stone til i had none left.

That is my little story :( :rolleyes:

ah well time to clua methinks ;)

There's only one episode in SoA where you need the rogue stone. That's when you face the Twisted Rune Gang. It's not just a lich, but an entire group you face.

And you certainly can go back to your last save, and find the rogue stone securely in place. If you have any problems with this (which you shouldn't), then don't load your last saved game. Load your last autosave, which the game does whenever you leave a map area for a new one.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

rogue stones aren't really used for much else except maybe a weapon upgrade in ToB and for selling.

You get tons as you go a long btw.

I may be wrong here Fable, but doesn't the autosave save the game àfter taking the Rogue Stone out of your inventory?

Yep, it does
