Just killed Laiken. then listed to Damiam and Zandalor argue with each other. Walked out on the balcony, cut scene had me pick up the Stone and now I'm a Dragon in Fjords getting my but kicked. Have died 16 times. Was able to hide behind a wall protrusion and made a save game.

I'm level 22.
Is this the end of my career?
How to I defeat Damian's forces outside the Battle Tower?

Keep moving; as long as you are flying at an angle to the ballista, they will very rarely hit you. Use Fire Sphere from a distance and you should be able to take care of the flying opponents and whittle down the ballistas, so it will be safer taking out the 3 nests (either with more Fire Spheres or getting close and using Fire Breath). Once you take out the nests you will automatically return to the battle tower.

Check your inventory; most dragon equipment gives skill bonuses. After this fight, you'll get access to a chest in the battle tower that you can use, which contains dragon equipment with very useful (non-skill) bonuses.

If you explored the start of the fjords you may have a dragon skill book you can use to learn Dragon Spirit, and can fly away behind the battle tower and use it to heal or otherwise rest up. If not, you will soon have easy access to alchemy material, so you don't need to conserve food or potions.

A burst of speed is triggered by right clicking or hitting the 'E' key.

Working on a side quest called The Horror of High Hall and I'm at a elevator in the Well Cave after meeting Kezzz , but the thing won't work. Is this a bug and is there a work around?

The levers there are to operate the elevator, rather than call it. Stand inside the elevator and then use the lever.

Initially the elevator only goes down one level. You then need to find a lever handle there to go lower (there is a slot on the ground beside the working lever).

Ok, it's deja vu all over again jumping these moving platforms.
I'm in a place called Sinister Cavern. I've found 2 levers and a book titled Book of the Dead.

I'm in a new area now with moving platforms and I can see another teleporter across the room. Have spent a few hours trying to make the jump without success. I'm going to assume it has something to do with the Dome thing I can see in the main area.

My question is this.
Is it worth all the time I spending on it?

Also a little off-topic. Does Original Sin have platforms like this in the game?

Thanks.

Barnabus (on the central platform in the main cave, with the forcefield around it), is part of the Hunting We Shall Go Again quest, as well as one of Igor's quests, if you choose him as a necromancer. A dragon skill book is available once you disable the two generators powering the forcefield, and you probably already got the skill book in the chest near the Book of the Dead.

There are no platforms or jumping in D:OS.


For the the platforms in the bottom of the three teleporters:

- jump up the first series of platforms until you get to the stationary ones
- jump to the moving platform to get to the first lever that activates the teleporter below
- drop down, careful of where you'll land, and take the teleporter to one up higher
- make your way across the moving platforms
- take the ladder up, and make your way back to the other side with a couple moving platforms, and one that starts dropping when you land on it (just down one level, if you stay too long)
- loot the chest and take the top teleporter... that will put you on the opposite side of the area (right at the T intersection)
- jump down to the platform in the corner to the right, when facing away from the teleporter
- jump down another couple platforms, and there will be a lever to disable a generator and get a platform moving back and forth below at 'ground' level
- drop onto the moving platform, timed so you hit it rather than the lava, then jump onto the stairs when you are close enough, and you are done with that section

Thanks. Finally got it last night after about an hour. I think the glass of red wine I was sipping on might have helped some.
