Stuck in the colors floor panels, can anyone tell me what´s the right sequence, damm this puzzle is quite embarrasing. :p

There's lots of options. The plate tells you that you need to get a total of 25.

I, for example, jumped on 6 red squares and one blue one.

I was terrified of the large underwater area, I thought there was going to be some sort of enemy that could move faster there. Giant shark or something, but I dunno if Dromed does underwater AI.

It is possible to have AI follow and harm the player underwater. There are several examples of smaller hostile fish (e.g., Piranhas) in Christine's missions ("Mountain Monastery" and her pirate-themed campaign), and in one area in the "Ruins of Originia" campaign, you are chased by fish and Craymen alike in some kind of lake (the one where you're supposed to steal some kind of Rainbow flowers, IIRC).

Nice Mission Nicked, i had alot of fun playing this mission, only the first puzzle of the frobing masks was a bit unfair, apart from that the rest is acessible, nice architecture design, simple but beautiful, excelente choice of ambiente musics and sounds, good choice of textures, good storyline, and a lovely gameplay.

Thank you very much for this high quality group of missions :thumb:

I am having a great time and many hours of fun with this mission. I am now close to the end (I Think), and am stuck in the temple room with the movable stairs. Got up the first flight and have made the run up the second flight about ten times. Can't seem to get Garret to mantle up to the last platform. All the stairs retract nad Garret seems to be able to stand on the smallest outcropping of the last stair. But he just can't seem to reach high enough to mantle up onto the last platform. ANY HELP HERE APPRECIATED. Sturmdrang has been a delight. The puzzle are great. Hard enough to make your think but not so difficult so as to frustrate. I can't tell you how many missions I have abandoned because I couldn't figure out the puzzles. I also like the fact about not having to cope with zombies, haunts (except one), or other supernatural beings throughout the story. I haven't reached the end yet and I realize from reading other posts that there will be a supernatural being at the very end. Every good story must have it's ultimate antagonist. :(

Yeah, those stairs seem a bit funny. When i was climbing up them, it was like Garrett couldn't move forward and was been pulled into the wall... anyway, i kept as far away from the wall as possible and kinda jumped up the stairs, then on the last step, i jump and mantle up.

Also the very last step of the second flight of stairs, does not revert back out, once it retracts, is this by design, or a bug?

That was by design, shadows.

Thanks Shadows, Got it. Don't cha know right after you ask for help you get it to work. Got to the room with the lever to raise the bridge but the bridge didn't come up. I assume there are more levers somewhere. I already frobbed the one at the entry to the bridge room itself. Then this one after the sliding rock bridges that come out of the wall. Went back to the bridge at lower level and went left instead of right and negotiated the room with the rising and falling pillars. Avoided the second room with the pillars for the time being and went to the sundial room. Facing north? and striking the two fire guardians on the left produces no result except to attract the water elemental. Is there anyway to destroy this elemental? I thought about using a fire arrow the same way as I use a water arrow on a fire elemental but it didn't work. Still working on those guardians.

I was thinking the same thing, when i encountered it. :cheeky: Tried to kill with a sword, it worked, but it 'explodes' when it dies dealing you damage. :weird: Anyway, i discovered, when it's not alerted, one arrow pops it!

I must commend nicked, it's not often we see water elementals!

i simply cant find the millets hoarde. I think its in the lighthouse location but i've checked every inch of that area with no luck. Also i cant get to the outside walls of the lighthouse on the top level which is the last area to check. Help pls running in circles here.

This campaign is almost perfect. great story, great puzzles I would add some zombies and intro and outro video. Thank You Nicked

I haven't got my handy map but hopefully this will get you in the right area.

Go to the ruins which have the entrance to the catacombs, the parapet around it and the buildings outside that area and look for a ruined building with a tree growing out of it.
