Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) General Dark Cave, Little Boy

once you saved the boy by sacrificing yourself,
how to get back normal again?

I don't think you can! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

i used the teleport stone to get out then rested (i think) and am fine??now.

You do not gain back any of the stats you lost, but you can get some from the orb by the dwarven village, or the wishing well...

yes, i always hate saving the boy, for it makes my skill points messy, and then i have to put like 1 in each thing, and end up loosing like 2 stat points (if u make a new level and have to rework 'em).

you lost what!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

explain this to me like i'm a toddler. you lose ability points just to save the freakin boy and gain only experience right?
i did save the boy but i didn't notice anything bad 'xcept me health nearly dried up. and got only xps, no reputation increase.

talk to his mom, but before u do, kill the vampire. u lost some stats (like 3, randomly) from the vampire sucking ur blood.

i did talk to the boy's mom after saving his neck from the vampire's fang.

my reputation when i entered the cave was 8 and after completing the quest it remained 8. weird, huh?

strange. kill teh vampire and then go back.

I hate that. there must be some way around that or is there only two options. What would happen if you got the door open before he spoke.

u can't. the movie starts , unless u hex edited, but, the movie starts that way also. u have to looses stats (i hate being messy) to do that.

right forum. lol.

also, after you've killed the vampire, i think sir markham (?), the knight who's fighting a bunch of trolls on the road to verdistis, will grant you the skill "bless". though i'm not too certain about that, as i normally don't do this quest which requires a lockpick skill. i just read about it in one of the walkthroughs.

yes, no u can use telekonikts also, and he gives ya' bless.

how much lock pick do I need. And what would happen if i let the poor sod die. Would a future quest be ruined or would I get toasted by lightning from the divine one?

You need level 2 lockpick for the door, or level 2 Telekinesis for the lever. There are no negative consequences (that I know of) for letting the boy die, besides missing the rewards you would have gotten by saving him.

Hehehe i let the boy die up there thinking i could just revive him with my resurect. To bad it didnt work though <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />
Well at least i saved myself from losing 3 stat points <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Liked the reply to the mother of the kid when i said my life was more important then the boy's <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> *grinn*

If you talk to the knight before you save the boy and kill the vampire, then that knight teaches you "restoration" for completing this quest. Restoration is much better than bless because it's healing, whereas bless only raises a few stat points. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/freak.gif" alt="" />

Actually it is bless. Its has its uses...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

well i got "bless", and i much prefer it than "restoration" as a reward. "restoration", just like any skill in dd has its uses, but i would rather drink a restoration potion (even a minor one will do) than cast restoration to heal myself. "bless", on the other hand, is a very powerful spell at mid- to hi-levels. it is enough to sway a battle in your favor, even against tough bosses.
