hmm I'm not sure about some of those questions.

One of the heads you can use at a certain point. But you only need one. Actually you don't really need it, but it does something amusing if I remember correctly.

I don't think I did anything with the silver ring.

I'm not sure who you were fighting in the dead nations? Those smart rat things? (I can't remember their name). They aren't a big deal.

everybody- when you enter you get a dialogue - i made a belligerent dialogue choice, and everybody went red. I fought everybody, ghouls, skeletons, zombies, including some named characters. Killed em all. When i get into drowned nation, theyre blue - apparently this is a different group. Im wondering if i missed important dialogue.

[Dis]

unfortunately I cannot remember that area very well.

I do remember there is a quest you can do for a ghost. The zombies normally go red, so that's no big deal.

But I think you only missed out on a quest or two.

use multiple save slots just in case .

ok, so after my first visit to dead nations, i head back to ragpickers, to buy and sell stuff, rest, and finish some quests. I go to sharegrave ( a lovely name, no?) and tell him about Pharod. The dialogue indicates there may be little time left for Pharod (oops!) so i skip the other sidequests and run back underground. I finish drowned nations, and the associated quest. I level up. I head over to the warrens of thought. Ok, having fought my way through dead nations, im gonna dialogue this. Well i guess i the wrong thing to the wererat. Im sent to the back, as a prison, i guess, and have to do lots of fighting against nasty rats of different kinds. After dying several times, and not finding anything particularly worthwhile, i didnt bother saving. I may go back to an earlier save and try to do the whole catacombs thing over again.

Maybe i need higher charisma to get good dialogue choices here?

Im thinking that dualing to thief was stupid. I dont do the stealth thing much, there have been few traps, i dont know if the door thing has helped, and the few good lock picks just arent worth it. I suppose dualing to mage would be better, but by the time i find a gardener ill be such a high level fighter, that it would be a long time to get fighter skills back.

It would be better if i had more party members. Ive only got nameless, morte, and da'akon. Anah and igus wouldnt join, despite trying various dialogue options. Do I need higher charisma, or to wait till a later point in the story? Im stumped.

[Jamski]

You don't lose your skills when you dual class in PS:T, LotM. You keep the Thaco, number of attacks etc of the fighter, but you can't use fighter weapons, so its not a big loss.

I wouldn't bother with being a theif though.

Spoiler:

Annah will join as a part of story arc. For Ignus, you need decanter of endless water found in catacombs. Later, just use it on him via dialogue options and there you go!

[Dis]

there's also a priest (cleric essentually) you can get later on, and a certain type of "creature"? you can get. It's not a creature, but I won't spoil what it is.

[Illuminatus]

You also forgot one character later

[Dis]

ohhh, I remember now. I should know, I used him. Even though he was kind of evil. He is badass.

getting him was no easy task. I had to reload to do the conversation right

[Illuminatus]

He is definetly not evil, just... inflexible. And you have to reload conversation only if you are not intelligent enough (gameplay wise ) since then you can persuade him that you are already more than enoguh punished. He does mess up some of the quests later though.

[Jamski]

Not to mention coming far to late in the game to be of any use, really. Lawful Neutral arse.

ok. ive been thoroughly through both the dead nations and warrens of thought. (I never did manage to get out of the sealed tomb, despite finding three keys, and eventually just reloaded) I still havent found the item Pharod wanted. Im stuck. Hints, anyone?

(oh, and thanks for your tips on party members and dualing)

[Jamski]

You have to go THROUGH either the Dead Nations or the Warrens of Thought to get to the next area, where you will find Pharod's sphere.

Keep going in the sealed tomb BTW, its quite a plot event.

Read the walls

I did read the walls. Very interesting from the story point of view. I ended up in I think every part of the sealed tomb. Still didnt manage to escape. I think ive learned all the story stuff in there - i just wonder if theres any gameplay stuff ive missed?

Theres only one are I can think of beyond both Dead nations and warrens of thought - the area where I found the decanter. I guess having found the decanter i thought i was done with that area - i guess not?

[Jamski]

Same area as the decanter! Getting warm!
