Anyone know, with some degree of certainty, the triggers to for the following?
Handmaiden, what needs to happen before she'll allow additional sparring matches? I haven't quite nailed down the science behind it. A certain amount of experience? Finding a Jedi Master? A certain amount of game time?
Same thing with the player crystal. What needs to happen before Kreia will upgrade it. Having played 3 times already, I've never gotten my crystal above "glowing moderately".
As far as I know for each of your questions you have to become a prestige class at level 15 (eg.sith lord). You will then beable to have the third and final sparing match with handmaiden and do your crystal thingy with kriea. Hope that helps.
Well I know that the crystal can be upgrade prior to going to a prestige class because I just upgraded from "translucent" to "glows very faintly" and I'm at level 14. My current theory is that she'll upgrade the crystal for you ever 2 levels. Seems the same thing with Handmaiden.
I'm pretty sure (I've now beaten it 3 times and trained Handmaiden each time) that Handmaiden's battles come at 10th, 14th, and 18th level respectively.
