Flail Heads

Mack_Attack · 08-23-2001, 10:44 AM

I am playin a Barbarian and finished the De'Arnise Keep but I could not get into the door on the thrid floor of the keep the one you need to get into to fight Glacias and get one of the flail heads. The door said I needed to find away to repair it before I could go through it. It is the door where you need to kill the Yuan-ti Mage and giant troll. Is there a sercet door some where to get into this area. Or is it possible to get the door fixed. I played the game through once before and do not rember having any trouble with this.
My problem now is that I have went and finished the quest off and now the door opens but there is no Glacias. Is there away to get the finale flail head with out using the cheat code to get it.

You will have to do the D'Arnise quest over to get all three flail heads.
************SPOILER*****************
************************************
************************************

To get the flail head that Glacias has, you'll have to get the key (hidden with Yuan-ti mage), then you'll have go to room that is on the north-west when you enter the ??third?? floor (same floor as the Yuan-ti mage). Find the hidden door (in the south of the room) go through the hallway find another hidden door. you'll get in a room, then beware of the trap on the door that follows, then you'll get in the room were glacias is with the last flail head.
Hope this helps.

This shows that I am a little newbie that I haven't even visited De'Arnise.
I have done a lot of quests in Athkathla though and... Oh nevermind..
Question..

Is it possible to complete De'Arnise quest with party which has... umm... lvl 8-9th average? Or should I get my party stronger?

demus · 08-23-2001, 12:07 PM

Uh, well, HooC, I hope it is cos Im about to attempt it

(the answer is definitely Yes 'cos i've done it before). However it is quite hard at that level and i'd advise regular saving and a lot of scouting with a hidden character

Some tips, have your mages memorise Melf's Minute Meteors and get some +2 enchanted weapons.

Oh, and some +1 Blunt weapons too.

And yes, you can. It won't be easy, but it won't be too difficult either.

Don't forget...if you have characters in your party that are good at archery..pick up some fire and acid arrows! After much hacking and slashing, you can get the trolls down, but you need to be able to KEEP them down.

For that matter, even if they aren't GOOD at archery, if they can hold a bow, give 'em one. Even with penalties, eventually an arrow will hit its mark.

HooC do not worry about going there at low level. I think It can be done with ease at lower level. It was just me and Nalia and we cleaned it out with a little patience.

oldbittercraig · 08-23-2001, 06:50 PM

it's one of the easier quests by far. With a party of 5 or 6 you should be able to slug your way through.

I finished the quest at level 8 - 9 it wasnt too hard i just had my druid summon a fire sword to kill the trolls once i knocked them down, make sure you have some kind of fire magic/acid magic or sword to kill the trolls, without this you'l be doin alot of runnin
