Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Random act 2 questions

1)When exploring i meet a imp who wanted to give me a ring. witch i accpeted then he ran off, later i meet 2 ghosts who seemed very upset i had there ring that was stolen form there graves.I retruned it as it semed the right thing to do , but i hadnt saved it ages and im curious if u decide to keep the ring what happens and do u still get the fire set armor piece that drops when u give the ring back?
2)When exploring the spider area of the map i found serval green 2 handed swords each with a differnt damage property.Fire,air,earth ect. I found 4 in total, the stats arent all that great even when sharpened up to lvl 8 im wondering is there any quest for these items and did i find them all?
3)What are the "odd looking gems "for? I found about 7 or 9 of them lying around
4)In the exiled Alchemists home there is some potions in the lower level that combine to make a item called a potion but i have yet to find any use for it.(its not the cure i already got him all the things he needs).
5)Im very near to the shamen battle, and form reading other posts this apears to be the ned of act 2, my question is 2 fold,does the act end when i kill the shamen or can i keep exploring and finishing quests off, and where is the final battlefield key? im up to battle field 5 but im sure i read act 2 had 6 keys.
6)Where is the key for the locked chest in the spider area?
7)There are 3 teleporters directly west of the alchmists hideout but if u stand on 1 it sends u too a small island, and the teleporter there sends u back too the first 1, how do u get too the 3rd teleport?
Thx in advance for any input

1) <span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'>They ghosts attack and you get a unique item and some treasure</span>
2) As far as I know, they're just magic swords. Could be wrong though.
3) Not sure.
4)<span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'> Need to give it to the imp outside that asks you to find a potion in the alchemist's house</span>
5) No, you can choose to stay in this act for a while <span class='standouttext'>Spoiler : </span><span class='spoiler'> After you kill the shaman, tell the imp you're not ready to leave for the temple yet</span>. As for the battlefield key, run a search for the excellent maps available. It'll be on there.
6) That's a pretty big area. I'm afraid you'll have to elucidate.

1. yes, you get, either by fight or in peace.
2. Nope, no quest swords - but quite handy against the elementals. Just take care of the res. malus.
3. => eggs for fire elementals
4. Creates Emu Eartes Sues for "imp needs potion" => outside the alchemist's house is an imp.
5. nope a lot of quest givers are dead - but I'd still explore area afterwards: Iriganirix will have dropped his 2 chest keys - you find the inquisition cross bow in imp her's house - and the dead dropped loot.
BF 6 => lava cave down far south in Fire Area - to reach with your pyramids

6. On the teleporter islands
7. Hop on teleporter to 1st island - drop your pyramid - hop back - use your pyramid => you're on the island now - use teleporter.

The chest in question is here
http://beyond.divinedivinity.net/help/act2_forest_nw.htm
its right between 6 and 7 and its the only locked chest on the entire map (the rest being barrels/spider cocoons ect and ofc not being locked).

Nope, I think, you have the wrong map - spider area has a locked one - Little Mushroom Forest has no spider cocoons => key is on the teleporter islands - I explained the procedure.

what about this one => number 16? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Yep your right, thx had wrong map.Few more questions, the tree of knowledge says
he takes some of your life force when he answers a question, What does he mean by this? I checked my hp on both deathknight and hero and no movement also experiance went up after tree encounter rather then down.
Reguarding the questions, the powerful weapon hidden under a bed, i read in another post that its the imp heros bed.. but in the imp heros small home(where the imp heros wife is) he has no bed (only a unmovebale blanket on the floor) and holding down alt key show only bread and chesse ect , with no weapons.
Do u have to look here after u fight the shamen? or do u have to have completed the send imp hero home quest? I killed the spider for the imp hero but after i gave him the legs as proof he ran off and when i meet him in the town telling the stort and say your wife wants u , he runns off but the game gets stuck in animation and doesnt give me back control.
Whats does the delious looking mushroom do when u eat it?
And how do u get the fire element eggs( odd looking gems) to hatch?

Tree takes no HP.

Inquisition bow => is behind a cupboard in the house you described - did you choose this option? If so, use ALT. If not - do the Shaman Realm and then have a close look at the village/houses => use ALT then again.


Imp hero => look SE of the Chieftain's hosue => circle of imps and hero in the middle <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Mushroom => +3 luck for each of you

eggs => well, a few "hatched" as you picked them up, that's all. Read the book by Redfingrix? "A nasty hot surprise" - There's nothing more to it.

CAUTION: After you return from Shaman realm => you can't complete quests anymore, ok? So, do all before you go to the alchemist to give him the 3 ingredients!

I still had several quests not finished when I killed the Shaman. When I went back to the Imp village all the quest Imps were still there for my quests except the Mushroom Farmer. So Kiya is right, you should stay and complete your quests before going on to Act III.

Thx again, but my game goes into a amimation and never comes out when i send the hero home.what is the Shaman Realm ? is this somthing you get to after killing the shaman or somthing? maybe im not there yet.
And do u know what the other things the tree is talking about if u ask him for a secret or powerful armor? He tells u somthing about a temple .. is that on act 3 ? or is it in act 2?

K ive prety much finished most quests, i still have a Drudanae root in my inventory ( i think i picked it up in the exiled alchemist house) does this have a use? Also i still have the spore antidote quest saying its unfinished, even though i woke them all up and got the Item revived message when they ran off, the antidote is still in my inventory.

Antidote is a problem => if you move it in your inventory => it triggers the log book again. That's all. And I'd throw it away. Follows you even in Act 3 (doesn't trigger then)

Following imps are dead => spider farmer Anourax, merchants, Iriganirix (no quest, but good to get at his chest again) - Tatourix ( lost money chest) - never tried to look if imp hero would still be amongst his fans if not sent home to Mommy.

Not sure about imp ghost, male imp, imp. I'm sure, Stignix is alive ("big secret").

Mushroom Farmer was there - outside his house (Mafnirx inside is not there, gives no quest).

so, it's better to finish off your quests before you go to Shaman's realm.

Root => Larakiri? this is required for the alchemist, main plot

Blocking hero animation => click on your char's portrait 1x to 2x => does game come back then?

Tree => weapon is Act 2, money chest is over 5000 gp at once, the rest is in Act 3.

Try leaving one character on the other side of the village, or something, when you talk to the imp hero and send him home. Someone else found that got them past the hanging cut scene.

After you get the alchemist to make the cure you will reach the shaman's realm (put this off until you have complete all other quests).

There is no use for the drudanae herb (in DD it could be used to make a super drug).

Ahh, the fond memories of drudanae... *sighs happily*

Great thx for all the replys, about to go to shamen.Just 2 things bugging me , i gave the guy who lost his key to the money chest his key back(from the lich cave) but i never checked what was inside it before doing this.Did i miss anyhting good? And 1 of the shop owner imps has a locked hatch in his shop that i cant figure out how to get into.

Hm, I saved before doing this => found a rune, weapons and gold in it.

Locked hatch => did you get the quest from his rival merchant to steal a box?
If so => touch the lever - imp will interrupt. Speak to him and lure him outside (via speech option)
Touch lever again and descend.

But, please, get the quest before doing so, ok?
