Help with Faithens Tomb

vinarian · Post by **vinarian** » Mon May 23, 2005 10:44 am

Hi all, I searched the forum but couldnt find any thread on this on yet, I cleared the tomb, put the two broken levers in the (elevator?) but nothing happens, the two gates open, but ive already been in those areas through the underwater tunells. Can anyone help with what to do next? Thanks in advance

Once you've come up to those two levers, pull the one on the right, which will open the right gate. since you have already done that, you need to follow that path through the right gate. Inside one of those tombs is a switch to open a hidden door where the amour is that you need to return to elves. Keep looking but i know it is in one of those rooms! Be ready though, if your character isn't a fighter you will have to deal with the guy guarding the treasure chest and the door is sealed until you defeat him, make sure you have plenty of heal potions.

Right, you need to go back to the House of Lords in Arindale.

i have also a problem with this quest.
after taking the armor and killing the wraith, in the other room (the room with the button to open the chamber) there spawn a few undeads and three ghosts! I mean ghosts like the wife of the headless warrior in fargrove... i think her name was ursula or something like that....
and this ghosts r a kind of tricky

i die every time... can u help me with them? they use all the time some kind of freezing breath and its nearly a one-hit-kill for me

last time i killed one of them and i got 5k (!) exp for one of them........

seems to me a bit weird that bosses (wraith) are easier then normal enemies!

Those banshees are a pain. If I see more than one coming for me, I usually load. But supposing you can't do that, realize that blocking with your shield will nullify their spells, so it's just a matter of timing your attacks in between their casts.

Magic like magic missile or lightning will take out the ghost, fast. They don't seem to have a lot of hit points. It also takes them awhile to get off their spell, when you see them start to wave their arms around, run to one side or the other and they'll miss. And if all else fails pause the game till you unfreeze. D

just had a look at my char. I got lvl 10 with 86hp... I think it should be enough for lvl 10, because i didnt have trouble with the spectres. And the ghosts kill me with one hit? seems to be a wrong world, or?
After some loading i passed it! Scorpions and wolves spawned, but no ghosts *phew*.
But now i dont find the kid *grml*. Have to look at the map

Wraith... but no armor

I'm not sure if I bugged something or not? I found the hidden room with the Elven Wraith in it... and beat it. I then beat all the spawning undead. I opened the 2 treasure chests and the sarcophacus. I still don't have the armor in my inventory. I read on another forum that the wraith won't spawn until you get the armor, but it was already there when I entered the room..... anyone have any ideas?

The little guy in the jail cell said I had to "use the key from one crypt to get the armor from the other crypt". Am I missing something? I thought I cleared everything out. The only thing that I missed was one treasure chest in the jail area where the little guy was. I jammed the lock on the jail cell.

There are actually two hidden rooms. It sounds like you still need to go to the one on the other side.

I spoke too soon!

Actually... I went back and looked at my map... then I discovered that I was reading it upside down.

After that I went to the other room and low and behold... there it was. Now I'm done with the Fathian Castle and on my way to finishing my various quests before I head up to Talendor.

One thing I have discovered about this game REAL fast... it's not always good to do things the fast way. You gain alot of experience by wandering around and gaining exp from the random encounters. I'm not sure if I'm doing everything the correct way... but I just finished Castle Ulm and I'm just a small amount of exp away from level 11. It really helped to take out all the elders in the Elder Quest.

All in all... I'm enjoying the game even though it's got more than a few bugs.

Hmmm...I've killed Elder Demus Fathien, but I couldn't find the Fathien tomb key. I used the fireplace during the battle, and maybe I left the key on the floor, and the key disappeared. It's interesting that plot items can disappear pemanently.
I suppose there's nothing left to do. I have to begin a new game, or delete the #%!grrr game

Can anyone help me?
