While I don't dispute that each and every answer in the above posted solution is required for the Achievement (that's the problem with broken Achievements), on the whole, the above one I posted, which came from Romanius, is VERIFIED CORRECT. It is not a guess, it is not a possibility, it works period.
Anyone following this thread, while I cannot dispute Daegon's solution works, I cannot verify it does; I can 100% verify the other one does. If I had to guess, I would assume you simply did not follow the exact steps above, instead changing some of the answers based on your judgement....read the initial thread, I did the same thing as it made no sense as I was clearly reinforcing her opinions....did not work (again, broken Achievement)....did it step for step....works. When multiple people attest to something, the best YOU should say is, "didn't work for me"; then allow reasonable people to come to their own conclusion (that conclusion would be you didn't follow the steps exactly).
Please read through the following post carefully before you dismiss me again or assume anything about me or the steps I followed.
For reference sake, here is 'The List' again :
Cyseal:
After the sparkmaster -> Fortunately for us, no one did ask you, Madora. No magician is perfect, and this little fiasco doesn't justify a wholesale rejection of all wizarding kind.
After talking to the grieving orc -> What kind of Source Hunter can't show an ounce of compassion to someone so obviously bereft?
After killing Victoria and telling Eglandear -> I won't deny responsibility for Victoria's death, but I hardly see this case as a cause for special celebration. Victoria was no Sourcerer.
Decide to kill the Charmed orc -> It's hardly the union itself to which I'm opposed - merely that, if that love potion wore off, she might turn violent.
OR
Decide to spare the Charmed Orc -> Does the thought of interbreeding sicken you so? For my part, the union itself is hardly a problem, and I'd claim that anyone opposed to the couple on those grounds is small-minded indeed.
Talk to Thelyron about the healing stone -> Given your penchant for spotting Source in Cyseal's every harmless cranny, such an accusation holds little weight.
After talking to a guard next to a zapper -> 'Doomsday device'? 'Source sapphire'? Why don't we keep along this 'poisonous path' and carry on with our 'insidious investigation.' Meanwhile, Madora, keep the crackpot commentary to yourself.
After leaving the homestead for the first time -> If what Zixzax says is true and we really are affecting the tapestry of time, I certainly want to know more!
Hiberheim:
After killing a snow warden -> Anything dependent on cloud cover for survival is better put out of its misery, I say.
Luculla Forest:
After talking to Lawrence -> I thought the same; his fawning is more likely a symptom of fear than of respect.
After talking to Almina at the Hiberheim portal -> Now that you mention it, it does seem rather foolish to heed the call of a disembodied voice within a known Sourcerer’s grotto...
Dark Forest:
After hearing Grutilda or Leonard talking about Norok -> Be patient; We can't blow our cover over a personal vendetta.
I can honestly say I followed every single step EXACTLY, EXCEPT I did not kill Victoria - therefore from the list I did 6/7 from Cyseal, 1/1 Hiberheim, 2/2 Luculla Forest and 1/1 Dark Forest.
Please do not assume 'I simply did not follow the steps above.'
My save / reload test CLEARLY counts for something here so let me explain..
I followed the list exactly EXCEPT I skipped Victoria, that is ONE check I missed. No achievement. I then reloaded and changed just ONE check - the snow warden one in Hiberheim. I got the achievement.
Is this not worth pointing out? Yes 'The List' is verified and attested by many - I did not say it wasn't. But lets assume you actually do think I am competent enough to have followed every step and not have missed a single check except for killing Victoria :
What my save/reload test COULD mean is that 'The List' does indeed get you the achievement if you follow every single step BUT it is the BARE MINIMUM to get the achievement because some of the checks are WRONG and so out of the 11 listed checks *just for argument sake* 6 are actually incorrect, meaning you still get 5 checks correct - the bare minimum. But if you were to skip just one out you would miss the achievement. Can I not logically argue this?
A real world example would be me giving you the answer sheet for a multiple choice test consisting of 11 questions. You need 5 correct answers out of 11 to pass the test, but the answer sheet I gave you has 6 incorrect answers already. So if you study the answer sheet off by heart and do the test exactly as per the answer sheet, you will pass - but if you get just one wrong you will fail. There is no cushion or breathing room.
Please don't dismiss me so easily, my simple save/reload experiment gives me every right to infer the above logic.
