Just finished Mission 1 (Again) CL really is a novel in process. No wonder I was ignored earlier. I hadn't taken the time to fully expore Murkbell, Lamfire and surrounding environs. I don't know if I have enough guts to tackle "The Fort". [SPOILER]I did pick the door with the ladder, but got busted when the lightning flashed. Dunno know about attempting it again. Too many guards! I found the sewer access from the jail too!:cheeky: [/SPOILER] But I did finish Arkhyn's tomb. That one really got my heart going in more than a few places !:eek: Read Purah's link to the old man's walkthrough, it will give you a good perspective on what can be done in mission 1. Going back in for 2 now.

Thank you for the consolidation of threads Nightwalker. I was about to suggest creating an entire temporary forum section just for Calendra's Legacy questions! :D

first: lovely mission pack!!! the architecture and story are SOOOO good!
I seem to be experiencing some problems, though:
Even though I play at the easiest setting, I can not knock some people out without losing the mission (the first chapter). I know for sure that they were not alerted at the time, and that nobody else saw I knocked them out, but still the mission ended (and it ended every single time I retried knocking these people out... which is what I usually do on my first time trough a mission: knock 'em all down :) ). Does anyone have a clue as to what I might have done wrong?
Something else: is there a way to go down the grave?

dryhte2 - That problem has cropped up and it seems that the AI alert just as you BJ them. I tried BJ the same guard in the same hallway from the same save 6 times. 4 times the mission failed and twice it worked fine. Just save before you try a BJ in case this happens or, if possible, just don't bother with the BJ. No-one pays any attention to you unless you're observed doing something wrong. If you want to pickpocket something, make sure the AI doesn't see you at all beforehand and, if they do, hang back and wait a few minutes until they forget about you. Then you can go ahead and take it.
As for the grave - [SPOILER]there is no way to go down, you have to find another entrance to the tomb. Go look in the park at the bottom of the stairs, not far from your meeting spot with Basso. First, if you don't already have them, you should go find a couple of useful books. They're in the house that was just across the bridge on your left from the start point. :)[/SPOILER]
Welcome to the forum, too! :D

Thank you nightwalker :) I'm not exactly new to this forum though... Even tho i never posted much. Lost my password for Dryhte, and changed email addresses as well, so no way to get my old password back :(

I know about the grave in the hills, but I thought there might be an easier way in through the other grave.
Having serious trouble with the crown (or necklace thingy) though... tried shooting it off its pedestal but won't work.[/SPOILER]

dryhte2 - I added spoiler cover to your post. It's easy to use. Just look above the square where you type and you'll see a little square labelled "Spoiler". Click on it and a box appears. Type the text that needs to be hidden in it, click OK and it will be inserted in your post. You can also just type {SPOILER} at the start and {/SPOILER} at the end of that section. Use [ ] these brackets though. I had to use the other ones so it wouldn't be hidden! :)
As for the crown - [SPOILER]You don't need to do anything elaborate. Just pick up the skull or one of the zombie bits lying in there and heave it at the crown to trigger the trap. Then the little door on the other side of the room opens. :)[/SPOILER]

I'm not sure that always works.
[SPOILER]Didn't work for me anyway. There are three other ways to survive the trap...[/SPOILER]
1) [SPOILER]Go just over the edge and backup until you are just on the edge. Kneel, lean forward, and grab the crown. You'll get webbed but you can get rid of them safely.[/SPOILER]
2) [spoiler]Stay near the edge but on the sinking platform. Grab the crown. While webbed, quickly turn around and mantle backup onto the edge. [/spoiler]
3) [spoiler]Just grab the crown. Remove the webs on the way down. When you get to the bottom there will be a little tunnel you can escape through. You may take a little damage this way from the gas though.[/spoiler]

It's always worked that way for me, with no problems. Let us know if it works for you, dryhte2. :)

I'm having major problems with act 1.
1 ) I've had the same problem with blackjacking anyone in the mission, every time I do I die. I managed to blackjack 3 guards behind the wall at the beginning of the mission but thats it. Reloading from a save doesn't seem to fix the problem.
2) If I use a water arrow anywhere in the act 1 I get the scull and crossbones.
3) Some of the guards attack me if they see me on the streets. They are freindly one time and not the next.
4) The jail house seems to be impossible to get through. A guard fell onto a ledge at one of the entrances to the rooms and I can't get by him. On the other end a sleeping guard woke up when I went down in the sewers, so I can't go that way either. Is there much loot in that building ?
5) At the end of the mission isn't basso suppose to leave a weapon cashe in the apartment. I can't seem to find the weapons anywhere.
I'm not complaining about the Fan Mission. I'm just confused if it is suppose to be this difficult. I only have $221 total loot . And I am playing on the easiest setting.
