How should one start the twisted rune quest?

SherpaDoug · 06-11-2001, 04:37 PM

I know the quest exists because I have read about it here. You go through a certain odd doorway while posessing a certain odd stone and you fight some really bad guys and get some really good treasure.
But what leads you to the quest? How does it fit into the plot? My first time thought that game a never ran across it. Are you expected to go door to door and see what trouble you can get into?

I'm confused. Explain to me again how peace and forgiveness will help me to crush my enemies and make them suffer.

I'm feeling lazy, so I'll just point you to this link instead. It should help you find the quest.

Note: SAVE first.

Something like that. There are no quests that point you towards that door, if that's what you mean. I think it's in there for 2 reasons...one, just as a tidbit for those people that DO go door to door, and two, to make you wonder wheteror not there's a connection to anything else.

How do you use the rogue stone to open the door? Haven't been able to figure this out...

I got this from the developer boards and originally it was going to be a huge quest involving the thing with the tanner as well but it got taken out for time reasons, if you download the infinity engine you can check out a load of interesting dialouge they left out.

This is about as hard as Kangaax and the Slave Lords put together.

Question....it isn't the elemental lich that summons all thoughs twisted rune guys is it? If its not which door am I suppose to enter to fight the lich which does?

The Twisted room house isn't a quest. It might have been though to be one but never put in, but there isn't really a quest to it. You simply have to have a rogue stone in order to ender the Twisted runehouse. If you try to enter the door without having a roguestone, it just won't let you in.
There are some Twisted rune guys outside of the house you run into during the game so maybe they were part of a broken quest somewhere.

The Twisted room house is in the bridge district. Its a pretty hard battle, so make sure you save before you go in. The best mage staff in the game is in there, so if you have a mage, you might want to get it.

Koshi - one of the hard guys from the Guarded Compound in the Temple District - carries a note detailing how to get to the Rune. I know a removed quest item linked the Guarded Compound with the slavers in the Slums.

OK, I have three questions:

Tancred: What is that quest item?

jabidas: How do you browse dialouge using IEEP?

sunder: There are some Twisted rune guys outside of the house you run into during the game so maybe they were part of a broken quest somewhere. What house? I can only think of that guy in Immelsvale, or the tanner at the second run-in.

Thanks,
Cayle
