could only get 6/7 secrets in planetarium. I traveled through the whole map with the console, using the apparatus at various points, but no luck - is there really a 7th secret? (secrets found labelled with ' ! ')

SpoilerShow

I consoled my way again and was able to find the secret i was missing in the academy - there i met a dwarf and the dialogues basically says that 'we got teleported here by using an object on Feanor's forge' (the elfe in Housing) - but it doesn't say which one?

I've just finished Madonite, and about to start chap3. I found all the other secrets but the 2 mentionned above (+ the one in the sewers because of the gold key)


last, any hints what to do with these items?

SpoilerShow

terror of the dragon
gem of the moon (found in mount khan)
fire flower (found in tibianic mine)
starmetal ore (found in Xarasa Grotto')
lightning core (calculation plain) - only managed to get the techno sword here btw

hopefully will be able to finish this damn long mod for good one of these days (after many failed versions/attempts )

DonEmilio wrote: ↑Sun Jul 27, 2025 1:12 am "Terror of the Dragons": It's an easter egg, it's useless, but you can sell it to the guy who buys the books in rocky coast.

DonEmilio wrote: ↑Sun Jul 27, 2025 1:12 am "Gem of the Moon": There are 4 of them, if you get all 4 and put them in the forge of the elf Faenor of Malan Tael you can access the forge of time (a secret in the academy).

DonEmilio wrote: ↑Sun Jul 27, 2025 1:12 am "Lighting Core": Serves to access a secret near the end of the game, in turn that secret makes you get another object that you can use elsewhere to get an epic item. I think you will know where to use it when the time comes (i recommend you to insist a lot).

gold key for the sewers - the problem is that all my gold keys have already been used before - either to open chests, or for somer doors. So i mean i've nothing left :/ Actually i watched your video to check if a gold key was there (in the sewers) but then i noticed you had already one before going down (right at the start of the video, when you check your stuff). The others gold keys (found later) are meant to be used for the next levels - if i use one of them for the sewers, same problem will happen later (most probably).

Maybe the infamous missing gold key is in the planetarium So you're saying there -is- a 7th secret ?? where can it be ??

Yo Emilio, you didn't read carefully, the planetaruoim map is already there, in the spoilers balise. I marked the 6 secrets i found with ! (the one avalaible by the game) - pls check again

i found this one by myself today actually - i was pretty sure i checked that guy already, but obviously that wasn't the case

ah? ok then, tks. Do you know by any chance if the door with the 'restricted area' panel can be opened ? It seems there's something behind (though cannot be affirmative)

yes i must say i'm not too bad to trigger things that are not supposed to happen - my main quality actually..

Still, even if it happened only to me - it did happen - fact



___________


i'm now in the ravenkul pass, and as always i reload a lot (@ ambush and portals)

i prefer to kill everyone and then destroy the portals - but for some reason i suspect this is not a good tactic anyway that was just hell here, as always



pls check again the 1st post about the planetarium map - i found 3 secrets in the library (se part) , and the others 3 ones in the northern part.

I mean i don't get it since i used the apparatus everywhere, even in the parts you're not allowed (through the console)

Overcoming this combat brings nothing, only a bonus of experience. And I recommend you to destroy the portals as soon as possible with dark magic, death bombs and bow of the elements magic, as soon as you destroy two of them everything will be much easier xD Invisibility and force field also helps.

no, too late, i spent 2 hours here (battle is over), and i took care of the monsters first, and then only after the portals .

i know it's not supposed to be that way but i did try the portals at first, and i did use invisibility and forcefields too. The problem (i found while testing various tatics) is that i'm unable to destroy the portals fast enough. After that, I am surrounded from all sides, and the enemy queue to fight at the end.

Put simply I found that there are too many monsters right at the start. There's also the fact that i don't want to waste all my bombs & potions for one battle only.

I could find a nice place where to fight (sides are protected by trees). I didn't use too much stuff here, but then again, i reloaded a lot.

I don't recommend this tatic to anyone, but i found that's the one that works best for me.

Yes, that's the one
