What the hell is this? Are they all on the whole

'appease the eldritch beast thing'

Anyone have any idea where to get a Mind Read Spellbook?

This. I'm going every where looking for it.

I may end up just grinding a bit. My Sage could learn Mind Read but I passed it up last level because I *THOUGHT* I had the spellbook but hahahahah turns out that was a scroll and now I'm fucked

No, there should be an ability to tell everybody what he'd told me! I can't even tell the inn owner about his role in the disappearance of her sister.
They all act like I slaughtered a peaceful NPC, not defended myself from a raving lunatic. And I can't even explain myself!

How do you give the letter of mark to the dwarf shopkeeper

 

[Haba]

That's just the beginning. Things will really escalate from there on.

Thanks but I don't think we're speaking about the same thing. I've already explored the NW part of Ukluk, used the harness to pass the pit, gotten the "cut-scene" with Smither's father, brought back the proof, gave it to him, and he gave me an amulet which, when examined, says it's missing a medallion. I'm looking for that medallion since I assume it's the key to Samhain's entrance.

Spoiler

Did you even read what Smithers and his father's cutscene were saying? The medallion in question is Loogmar's seal from Aquavia, the one you used to open the gate to the harness chasm.

I'm now reloading on a chest until I find a scroll or speelbook for that.

But really, you'll probably need the spellbook.

 

[mondblut]

Samhain underground, the encoded rune tablet - what do I have to grind to read it? Everyone is "cannot decipher it". Don't tell me I have to be turned into a duck in the chambers below

I'll do the same on the next chest. I don't know how long it would take to find mindread again, so I had to take it.

Ancient history? I have 25 and it's not enough, though.
It's probably a clue for the phoenix cage.

 

[Viata]

Yeah. It's better to have the spellbook. Doing it again.

, right? What am I doing wrong?

 

[DoomIhlVaria]

Is there a definitive list of maps anywhere yet? I'd like to organize a notebook in alphabetic order by map.

You have to. Simply finish everything you have unfinished before you do.

You can bribe/use diplomacy to calm people down, if you want to.

How do I get into the Black Cenopath?

Spoiler

I found the Bishop's grave under the Crusader Temple, but that doesn't do anything. I assume I need to get one of his hands or something, but I can't find anything

Maybe you need a hand? Check the skeletons down the stairs.

the Samhain Horror

, right? What am I doing wrong?

Oh god, this is so stupid. The beast kills every mage in my party before anyone can act, then my fastest character reads 'Hold Monsters' scroll. That paralyzes the Horror indefinitely, so my ranger kills it very slowly with Caliburnus, because nothing else seems to be able to hit it.
And my eyeperson doesn't get experience, because raise dead spell doesn't work in combat for whatever reason.
Uuuuggghhh.

My eyeperson was killed there too.

Thanks, I had forgotten that I had the item, wasn't marked as critical

I tried doing it legit, ended up using bard.

Bard never fails.

And the shawl is here to stay? How do I drop it?
