Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Help on Holy weapons

hi

i discovered the tomb with where you sacrifice all three holy weapons, before i found the dagger and the amulet. me being stupid, looking for more gold, opened all the tombs and i think i fought some monsters. Now that ive found the holy weapons, i went back to the tomb, now that lady wont even talk to me. any suggesions, like am i doing sumting wrong?
any help?

if the walktthrough speaks true.....then i guess, your f*ck*d.

only thing to do here is to reload before you entered and touched the tombs.

i did save it before i touched the tombs...but that was 20 hrs ago, i must have overwritten the saved game like a bazzilion times...well ill just hope the walkthru is WRONG...if the walkthru is right..and iam indeed F-ed...who needs the holy weapons anyways...

indeed, who needs a holy weapon if its stats will just like all the items in the game wherein the stats are randomly generated.

The walkthrough is correct, but you can still get the holy item;

FIX for broken Holy Items quest


Welcome to the forum. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

maybe iam stupid....*scratches head*..can you explain in "plain english"..step 2, 3 and 4....i mean a lil more detail...ESPECIALLY step 3...if i saved it before i entered the tombs...i wouldnt have to go thru step 1, 2, 4, 5 ,6...start a new game as in...click "new" on the main menu of DD...iam confused...

The game checks the story files when you step on the circle, to see whether you opened any of the tombs. You can trick the statue into performing the sacrifice if you temporarily use story files that say you never opened the tombs. This must be a temporary file swap, since the 'new' story files may break other quests.


in a new save, backup the story.* files, so you can put them back when the quest is done

place the story files from a save from before touching the tombs into the new save and load the game. This can be from an old save, or a new game (as in 'new' on the main menu).

If you had a -recent- save before entering the place of sacrifice you could simply reload. The temporary use of story files from an earlier point (or new game) will allow the sacrifice to take place without forcing you to redo whatever stuff you have done since you opened the tombs. This is particularly handy when such a save does not exist, so the choice is between using the temporary file swap or not completing the quest.

By placing the other set of story files in the new save and loading it, the game will think you have never opened any of the tombs. This will also effect other quests, so you need to put your original story files back at the end of the procedure.


Think of it like this; if your name (but not picture) is on list of people not to let into a bar, you can stick a fake ID in your wallet to enter, but you have to put your original driver's licence back when you leave, or at the next police check stop you are going to have problems with mismatched IDs and vehicle registration.

Clearer?

hi

i got it...thank you sooo much raze.

another question.

my character uses a lot of items like belts swords gloves rings all with a +1 sight or above...i loaded my saved game game today...and my character cant see...hes basically blind, only when enemies get to my face i can see them...my bow had +4 sight...now the stats show just +1 sight....i had a sword with no sight...when i equipped my character with that sword...it showed a +1 sight...dont know where that came from...any hints?

this has nuttin to do with the holy weapons

Do you have the patch installed? If that doesn't help, see the topics;

please help with my blind hero

Disappearing enemies (this person also encountered a sudden sight +1 bonus on all equipment


Do you have any recent saves that are ok?

Do you have any points in Elven Sight? If so, use iZakaroN's SaveEditor (or from Kiya's site, with description) to remove them (or give yourself skill points, if required). Re-load the save and put the skill points into Elven Sight (and maybe Ranger Sight, if you have enough). Save, and repeat if necessary. Someone else found that the sight boost when learning Elven/Ranger Sight was added right away, not calculated each time you load the game (for example), so adding and removing points to these skills can get your sight back to normal (removing the skill points does not drop your sight range and you can learn these skills multiple times, if necessary).
