T2 FM: Ladytaker (Tales from the Cleft) (1 Dec 2010)

Well shit, I really am stuck this time. :(

All my objectives are complete except for the ones dealing with Eleanor and I went back into the canal, retracing my steps so I could find the rest of the hammer signs, but now I can't get back to the main part of town---the door leading up into The Lions apartments is blocked by a gate I can't open. Is there any other way there or am I well and truly screwed this time?

EDIT: Just remembered the sewers. *facepalm*

CaptSyn,
Sorry that you were stuck on Vandal. The two items you mention have easy solutions:

Safe way down - Climb down to the hanging platform, then jump over to the lower ladder. Garrett has fingers of steel!

Fast water - Just enjoy the ride. You'll stop at a grate. Look down, and grab the grate handle (that fell off) and use it to open the grate.

On the other hand, Ladytaker does have crazy high places, and fast water, so you takes your chances.

Anyway whats the worst that can happen.....you fall off your chair?...lol

I think we got it Balboa! I uninstalled and copied over the backup dark.cfg from when I played Fables and let it over write. Then reinstalled Ladytaker and everything seems to be okay. Thanks a bunch as usual guys! Especially to Tanner and ffox! Your the best! :angel::thumb::cheeky:

Argh, THAT could explain that I am absolutely stuck at the beginning. Played Fables before and did not make a backup... Did not dare to ask because obviously nobody had any problems to play this mission...

Blackjacked all I can. Got to Uptown, talked to the barkeeper. Went through the shafts in the hotel and got the Vermin thingy. But then nothing continued. Can't enter Verminatrix, no doors are frobbable except the Tree Shrubbery which can't be picked and I have no key...

Any ideas or do I really need a copy of the dark.cfg?

Oh my god - I'm suffering badly from the JAIPS (Just After I Post-Syndrom)...

Tried to lure the police guy out WITHOUT getting seen...

I'm getting old, so old...

thank you balboa for a wonderfull mission. had to stop here more then once to get hints..:cheeky:

I think I found a buggy part...

the secret torch in the hammerites dormitory..
( I had to replay that part a few times ) I had several times that the torch didn't function properly.
shooting a waterarrow doused the flames ( allthough the light would still be there) and the torch would not be frobable.. no bunk would move, so no slowfall potion.
the elevator did go done though.. shooting more waterarrows sometimes did do the trick, other times I could shoot all my waterarrows, nada...

nevertheless I had a really great time playing this mission

How do you get back to the main part of town through the sewers?

I used some rubble from the ladywalke to hold open certain doors before proceeding

1. Find the passage in the sewers that leads to a place with a patrolling apebeast. There is a hatch leading to the 'High Ende' streets there.

2. In High Ende, open the frobbable gate and shimmy alongside the narrow ledge high above the canal.

3. Jump to the rope/fishing line and make your way through Ursula´s place, getting out through the small door at second-story level.

4. Follow the ledge outside around the buidling and jump over to the bank buildning.

No saved game to go back to at this point to do that...had I known. Oh well...
