oh noo... i messed up Helm's Hold!

Avatar · 08-29-2002, 04:15 AM

I thought the Helm's spirit was upstairs for some reason so i went up stairs to explore and guess what i couldn't come down even after killing Desther (which is ******* difficult for a level 8 wizard) I had to use level 5 summon (which made it really easy). I hate those skeleton chieftains and warriors they really make short work of Linu and any summons below level 5 spells.

Problem (s):

I missed out on the restoring either demon or spirit. Anyway to cheat and get the items or go back? (no saves not even auto since the next auto washed it)

Is there a Gauntlet of Lockgripping or am i wrong? Can someone tell me what loot there are on the 2nd floor just in case i missed some?

THANKS!

Well if you free the Demon, you can get a nice cloak of freedom or a nice axe, haven´t taken it so I don´t know what it is really.

When you free the Helm spirit you can get an elven court bow, which is nice.

Otherwise, the rest is random.

And with no saves, just keep going, you will get alot of money in Chapter two and be able to find alot of nifty items in there as well.

If not, cheating is an option, but you need to create a small mod and get the items that way and then restart chapter 2.. Just keep going I say, you will find better items for your character, espacially for a wizard in chapter 2.

Helm's Spirit can also give ring of elemental resistance (15/-) - very nice

please explain the cheat option in more detail

Well you have to make a small module with a chest or something in that chest you place items you like to have. Do this when finished with chapter one, choose start new game, other your own module, take the cheated items, equip, save character again (you have to do this first!) then take new game, choose premaid character your cheated one, start at chapter 2. Voila!

You have to know the Aurora alittle first.

So as I said above.. just keep playing and fool around afterwards!

There is no reason to do it really, as you didn't miss ANYTHING really worth of notice. First and foremost, the loot is based on your level, so further down the road you will find better items, not to mention these same items as well. What you really missed there was some XP, that is what has some value, as for gear - there's nothing really too important. I wouldn't really bother with creating your own "minimodule", I would just move on.

All of the items you missed will be available later in the game. There is a ring as good available for sale in chapter 2, in the temple.

If you're really frustrated, go back to an earlier save, or play chapter 1 over again.

There isn't a single thing that you missed that is worth the effort of cheating. No unique treasures, at all.

I really think going to all that toruble isnt worth it, i mean i found better stuff on the little dealerman johnny just b4 the end of chatper 1,it is better left where it is, although it is kinda characterful if an evil character frees the demon while a good character banishes it.
