So I've now managed to get to A3 (though I know I've missed a lot in A2... I think you should get a warning before the mainquest advances so quickly you can't go back anymore. smirk - where are the other BF-keys btw? I only got 1-3...)

Anyway, the current quest on the information-thingie at the entrance of the temple says something about the General. Do I now have to find him? Where is he?

A merchant wants an amulet from the crypt and told me the key is with Kiya. Where to find her in game?

I've also met a talking tibar who wants me to help him with the curse a witch has placed on him. Where is this witch?

Zandalor also wants an ammy from some ruins. there are ruins everywhere about - but no amulet to find.

I've met some imps and the human they are chasing - and promised the imps to find them a special weapon. Again I can't find the cave. (And this quest doesn't appear in my quest-book btw.)

And btw, I found BF-key 2 but not 1...
I have managed to activate all teleporters but one while wandering around. (An imp told me not to return to the tp-island because someone had taken it over - but so far I've seen nothing amiss there.)

I'm feeling rather stupid - as I'm stumped on a lot of things - but usually I just wander around and there are so many things to do finally something works. But now I'm kind of running out of things to try. smirk

Thanks for any help. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

the GEneral is at 8 - all from Hellfighter's maps

merchant => Kiya will find you - as soon as you're number 2 in the ranking list. Did you get an entry into the book the Keeper of Ranks has? House west of the billboard


http://beyond.divinedivinity.net/help/act3_temple_district.htm
Talking Tibar => witch Cassandra cursed him, she's at number 24

http://beyond.divinedivinity.net/help/act3_ash-forest.htm
Zandalor should have flagged the ruins for you - it's the one, where you have to give answers to 4 pillars. Nr 4 on this map.

No, the imp cave is directly in the imp camp...

BF key 1 is in the Temple town, west of the church is a grave <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Teleporter Island => if you had gone east, after the imp spoke to you, you would have experienced what's going wrong => you are teleported to and fro. Go to the the tower there => Serrick has a quest for you.

(Grr, that rating-button where I expect a reply-button will be my death someday <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />)

Doh, I'm stupid. I had already found the general - but I guess I didn't perform up to his expectations... I let the soldier go free (well, he was feeding his cats with this money. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />) I suppose that's why I didn't get any points in my ranking for this.

I've now solved Serrick's quest and freed the monks. I guess that leaves only one quest for me to move up to rank 2 (I'm at 3), the holy relics. Which leaves me with another "Where?"-question. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Btw, on Serrick's island, there is some kind of lava-ring with a chest inside. Any way to get to this chest?

I've also done most of the quests for the Ranaar now - I'm only left with the Seeing Stone and the monster I'm supposed to kill. Again I can't find the monster - and concerning the Seeing Stone, I've read elsewhere I need a mirror (and have it) - but I don't know how to use it. smirk

Thanks for all the help, Kiya. I hope you aren't getting annoyed by my many questions yet. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Please, check, which ranking quests are still missing, Lira.

IIRC, Raze flagged it for you - should be number 9

The wine chest surrounded by lava => chuck one teleporter on it and use your 2nd in the inventory. Or use "teleport", ethereal magic.

Mirror => place it in front of the church doors (one of the locations the stone shows) - then click on the stone. It should stop as soon as it reaches the church pic.

Monster => there is a cave in the rebel camp (north edge) - please, go in there. In earlier versions, you didn't have to kill, but now... the stupid rebel acknowledges it only if you ahve killed. DON'T tell him the monster is dead - use the other option, better reward.

Ouch! Seems there's more than I thought. - I thought it was just the quests from the billboard.

Anyway, got the Ranaar-quests done now, finished with the unfortunately fake Zandalor and got the items from the chest.

On to the rest of the ranking quests now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hmm, something weird, though: I did not find BF-keys 1. I found 2 first (forgot where, though). You told me that 1 was next to the church. Anyway, I didn't found 3 at first, I found 4 (somewhere close to the Rebel Camp.) Now I found another key at the Zandalor-quest (which said 4 again, so I suppose it was 3 - which I should have found sooner. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />) And now I found another one in the winechest - which said 4 again... (Not that it is important. I'm not doing the full BF anyway. Too little exp.)

No, the wine chest BF is - what I call - a joker BF. It doesn't open up an additional dungeon. Number 5 is missing - but as you can find number 6 very late in Act 3, you can access 1-6 then.

Hm, if you wait a bit, I can modify and upload the BF key locations from 1-6 (without the missing 5) - I have them on my PC. 1 was in the grave. Your number 2 was near Bram's camp. 3 is in Zandalor's ruins (in a critter) - 4 is in Crystal Forest in a cove - 6 is in the catacombs. BUT! As soon as you enter these catacombs => no return to the main game in Act 3, ok?
Kiya

Wait, I think I know what the matter is => if you find the number 3 key first - and then the number 2 => the message says: you have access to number 3. The message always tells you the highest value, as you can access 1-3 at once. Errhm, did you understand?

Yes, I did understand. And which is why I wasn't wondering too much about getting the message 4 twice. But the third time did make me wonder.

Btw,I didn't need all ranking quests. Of the list above I have only done Tibar, Stolen Goods, Fire Elemental, Zandalor, Missing Monks and the Strange Teleportation. And Kiya appeared now.
*goes look for the other quests anyway* <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Yes, you only need about 10000 ranking XP for her to appear - my max was 25500 XP. I didn't follow the lady at once, why? Well, as soon as you meet her challenge and return afterwards (hopefully alive <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> ) - the book of ranks has removed your name. And I wanted to check out the max <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
