broken valley - sleepers ; after finnishing the quest the group of three runs away - do they go somewhere in particular where i can encounter them again ? Same question for the man you help getting out of the hole he fell in .

bandit camp - the "testing" area where you get a first peek at yours to be sent tower ; wasnt i told that if complete the challenge i get to be the alpha & omega of the bandid camp ?
The quest daylight roberry (i think) ; i kinda changed my mind when i got to the point of robbing the travelers ; if i would rob them , would that effect my game afterwards ? Like would any of the champions or people i know find out about my double crossings ?

Near to stone mines theres a big red orb thing with pedestral infront . i never figured it out so i was using the pedestral to farm on mobs comming out everytime i used it untill it exploded .

In every single replay i helped Lovis & never the ghosts . Would the award be bigger if i would not do so ?

Orobas fjords : the guy in the champion docks who gives you some quest to catch certain criminals ;
the one in goblin caves where the catapults are asks me to kill the champion (apperantly his not such a nice guy after all) , i did not do so, again ; would the reward be greater & would there be any consequences ?

The blinded philosopher ; after giving him the malachite and completing the quest hes still amrked as important NPC on my map. is there something else he could help me with ?

Linking the teleporters to save Saul ; i linked the teleporter to high hall and right after he entered the teleporter the quest failed ; i take it that was Tilians quest ti kill saul ; but i received no thanks from Saul neither any award. Also as i followed him thru teleporter he was nowhere to be found . Beside that i thought i can go back to tilian and deal with him for framing Saul, but there was no options than to greet tilian .

Sent. Tower ;

in my last game i choosed allan over the other guy and the infamous allan brew ; i dont recall the other guy having any special brews ? I never used allans one anyway bc i was worried i might get a bad diarrhea or something (altho as i read on the forums it gives you a big resistance bonus smile )


after sent tower ; is there any more broken valley survivors beside needleman and the champions captured by the black order in the mines ?

after conquering a tower theres a raft far away from the island, is this raft availible before you capture the tower ? is the guy on the raft alive at that time ?


If you know the answer of any of these questions it would be much appreciated :P

edit ; just noticed - im so sorry for not posting this in ED section .

1. no
2. really?
3. no, it won't affect anything
4. yep, you need to destroy it
5. not really
6. you can't kill the champion, afair. It's intended that you lie to the goblins.
7. no, philosopher is just one-time side-quest
8. quests seems to incomplete for me as well
9. no, no diarrhea
10. no
11. no, almighty invisible barrier block the path in to wild open sea. Praise be the consoles with their 256 RAM!

thank you very much smile The questions werent that vital but i was certainly curious about it.

2 ) Now im not that sure hehe, i thought im challenging the guy in Bandid camp to take over his little gang if i defeat him . Should have payed more attention

& damn, i was so so sure im doing it wrong by destroying the orb . Thought im tottaly missing on something .

6) so if i lie to goblins i killed him i guess i get a little something for that... can i still kill the goblin afterwards and bring his head for the reward ? laugh

8. i just found out ; its up 2 who you choose to be in the battle tower. apperantly it must be Kenneth to complete it .

again, thx for your answers .

The 3 sleepers can be found again in the Broken Valley village, at the back IIRC near the talking cart. I don't recall running into the guy from the troll trap again.

Supposedly the only person to survive the Temple of Doom was the leader of the bandits, but defeating him wouldn't necessarily make you the new leader (through it probably would if the bandits were not destined to get wiped out, which can happen before you enter the temple, so there wouldn't be much left to lead in that case).

You can go through with the robbery or not, and it will not effect other quests or influence other NPCs. Actually, after helping the traders I went back to the bandit camp hoping to be able to report on the situation, but didn't get the reaction I was hoping for (one of the responses was quite amusing, though).

For the Hellgate orb thingy, you can get a demon's claw from the last opponent, one of 2 or 3 ways to solve the 'Greater Hunter' quest.

I saved and tried the quest with Lovis' soul stone both ways. There is quit a funny dialog option if you decide to help the ghosts, but the reward is worse and you don't get the second chest in the throne room (which in D2:ED contains a random legendary quality piece of equipment).

You can kill the champion, but the quest reward is worse, the promised reward from the Red Hammer chief was a lie, and he will attack you anyway. Again, I had saved before entering the cave, so tried the quest both ways. AFAIK there are no consequences for killing the champion; nobody noticed right away, anyway.

After getting a couple skill points from the blind philosopher he isn't involved in anything else.

Which quest failed when you helped Saul? The quest from the slayer will fail if you help Saul escape, but if you picked Kenneth as your trainer that quest should pass. I also followed Saul to High Halls and he was gone by the time I got there.
Wasn't there a reward when you release Saul? I tried killing and releasing him, but if there was a better reward killing him (don't recall) it wasn't enough for me to reload after helping him.
I ran around the slayer camp and hoped to get in to talk to the goblin prisoners in order to expose Tilian, but unfortunately there is no way to do so.

Barbatos can make weak stat bonus potions without the need for any ingredients, but more importantly with him you can use the Potion of Wisdom yourself (+5 Intelligence), which Allan wants for one of his quests.

Sentinel Island Servant picks....

Apparently some people from Broken Valley make it to Aleroth in the add-on (FoV / end section of DKS), or at least you find out what happened to some of them.

The raft was not ready before you got the battle tower, but you could talk to the guy making the raft in the camp (towards the beach, behind where the married cooks were arguing, IIRC) . Apparently he didn't get out soon enough, though (you can find his diary on the raft).

The man caught in the troll's pit ends up walking the wall at the Broken Valley village. Well, he stands still, on the wall, above the main entrance, but another guard walks his rounds up and down past him, and if you stand there eavesdropping you can hear the story of how awesome you are for rescuing him from the troll pit.

Not really, you can finish the quest even if you picked up the Harmona, but still.. even if you choose Kenneth the quest still seems to incomplete for me.

Yeah i did the same thing, hoping ill be able to use my super dragon troll art power once i get back to Ragnar and get away with it as a war hero laugh

Hellgate is than the 3rd way of getting them claws smirk (bellegar,crystalskull mine ). damn. now i wish there was more to the friggin orb lol .

Yeah the Second Lovis' chest made me to stick with lovis everytime >.<

Im not quite sure about the Saul Raze, i just checked my closed quest and i cant recall which one was it. All i know is that the second i let saul walk into the teleporter i got the "quest failed"
message & when i quickly followed him he dissapeared. Unfortunately it happend a bit too quick so i didnt memmorise the name of the quest, So i guess it was tillians quest of killing him that failed. i got no reward for rescuing him, i talked to Kenneth & nothing (would he open up a chest @ his enchanting platform ? - i completed his quests and he didnt open, he did offer to upgrade his enchanting platform tho ) . And i didnt get to peek inside a goblins tower either . If i remember i have a chance of confronting tillian and killing him but this time i gave him the A. sword in exchange for something i needed for that entrance with long dead dragon init (i think that was the convo where i could choose to fight him -tillian?) so, bad choice since i wanted to clear the camp sooner or later too.

Yeah i loved how Broken valley characters were mentioned here and there in FOV . and Folos pigs, ofcrs . after all some characters in BV mentioned their relatives/friends in Aleroth , including that whatsitsname inn smile

thx for the Sleepers answer, ive never noticed and their reward was kinda dissapointing for me, esp bc i found them in late game of broken valley and it took me some time to find another apple & brew smile

same goes for the guy in the hole, now i need to replay the game just to hear "just how awesome i am" laugh

And damn, that guy rly was creating a raft on sentinel, how could i forgot this :S

The chests on the platforms can be opened without doing any quests. The first key can be found in the alchemy platform, on the table IIRC, and when you open the first chest you'll get the next key, etc.
alchemy -> necromancer -> trainer -> workshop -> master's quarters

interesting . i recall picking up the first key but apperantly im blind bc i just checked the Alchemy platform again and i cant find the chest @ Allan. So i went to necro ; noticed i already opened his chest - went on , as spoiler says and i couldnt open up the other two chests . i guess i didnt get the key in necros chest, since you cant even drop the key once you get it smirk

Or i simply messed up the right way by opening necros chest first and got no more keys as a result.

There is no chest on the alchemy platform, just the key. Did you open the chest on the skill trainer's platform? There are 3 chests after the necromancer, but you mentioned not opening 2.

The order may have been changed or something added in DKS/FoV. Pre-patch there was also a bug that could leave certain containers empty.
