A guide on how to beat the game on ironman difficulty without cheating.
Advertencia
This game is only interesting, if you play it without a guide. You are supposed to die, learn from your mistakes and try again. An adventure is exploring the world without knowing what’s going to happen next.
Sin embargo, I admit that the «Fabled Lands» are pretty hostile. It is a direct «puerto» of a gamebook series from the 90s. Back in those days, games were much harder and people didn’t get discouraged quite as quickly. There were also much less options, so you simply had to «dios dado».
De todos modos, there is no real «habilidad» en el juego, aside from knowing where the good events are. So don’t feel bad about playing on the lowest difficulty. It is much better to do that, than to save before every roll and cheat yourself out of any risk.
En resumen, you should only use this guide, once you’ve experienced the game yourself. Don’t rob yourself of making your own discoveries!
Goal and Roadmap
Meta
The aim of the guide is to get all achievements in a single playthrough.
This obviously excludes two of the four achievements associated with the Sokaran civial war.
It is impossible to get all four in the same playthrough.
The guide assumes, that you are playing on Ironman difficulty, in order to get Iron Adventurer. Más, it assumes that you do not want to abuse bugs and/or cheat.
(Nota: Ironman was the only difficulty in the original gamebooks!)
Hoja de ruta
The guide will first lead you towards the Iron Adventurer logro. But it will pick up most other achievements along the way. Después, it will get the remaining achievements, that are somewhat out of the way.
If you are interested in which chapter a certain achievement is done, consult Apéndice 1.
(Nota: Si ya tienes Iron Adventurer and are simply looking to complete a couple of specific achievements, then following this guide is probably ineffective. en ese caso, you should just look up the specific achievements in Kurufinwes excellent guide.)
Notes and optional paragraphs
The guide is riddled with notes and optional paragraphs. These contain background information and explain why the guide is proceeding the way it does. If you are not interested in this information, you can simply ignore all of it.
Opcional: Why does the guide take such an inefficient route?
If you follow this guide, then there is no way that you will ever die. Even the worst dice rolls imaginable, will not result in death.
The guide will not be using the «resurrection» característica. Personalmente, I find that it kills immersion and goes against the concept of an ironman run.
(Nota: Resurrection deals were also in the books. They are expensive by design and should ensure that advanced characters will not die as easily.)
Opcional: Why does the guide not use blessings to reroll?
Blessings cannot ensure your survival, but leveling up your abilities can. Imagine an ability check with a difficulty of 10 while your ability is 8. Failing results in death.
De este modo, you would only die, if you rolled 2 on a 2d6 roll. The chance of this happening is 1 en 36 or approximately 2.78%. If you have a blessing of the ability and also a blessing of luck, you could reroll the check twice.
The chance of getting «snake eyes» three times in a row is 1 en 46656 or around 0.0021%.
Clearly, you would probably not fail. Sin embargo, hay un oportunidad.
Once you increase the ability to 9, there is a no chance of failing anymore.
Spoilers
Spoilers
You should seriously consider playing the game on your own. This guide will pretty much spoiler everything. There will be no further spoiler warnings or spoiler tags.
Versión
This guide is optimized for version 1.0.13 del juego. De este modo, some things might be slightly different in the future. In a worst case scenario, this could result in the death of your character.
I will try to safeguard against upcomming changes as much as possible.
Sin embargo, I obviously cannot forsee the future.
Errores
This is a long guide and there could be an oversight, that makes death possible after all.
I playtested the guide multiple times, but that doesn’t mean that it is flawless.
If you find a mistake or somehow die, then please post a comment.
(Nota: I don’t care about spelling mistakes or grammer flaws. As I am not a native English speaker and there are probably hundreds of them.)
Capítulo 0: Creación de personajes
Clase
While this is doable with every class, the guide specifically uses the Guerrero. Other classes would have to slightly change the order of things, due to starting with slightly different ability values.
(Nota: Combat Skills are not tied to your class, but instead your base ability scores. De este modo, si quieres, you can still use the fighting tips outlined in Apéndice 2 y 3.)
Género
As far as I am aware, gender does not make any difference at all.
(Nota: In the books, there was at least one difference. Using the unicorn event in Uttaku, female characters could get +1 Magia y +1 Carisma. Male characters could only get +1 Magia. This is not the case in the game. Both genders get +1 Magia y +1 Carisma.)
Capítulo 1: Goldfall
Isle of Druids
You start out at the Isle of Druids. Simply follow to the Obsidian Stones and teleport to Wishport.
Getting to Goldfall
Dejar Wishport usando el East Road. Nothing bad can happen here.
(Nota: If you get the Knights of Nagil, then refuse to become an initiate. If you accidentally accept, entonces ve a Metriciens and renounce your faith at the Temple of Nagil. This is free.)
Ir a Haggart’s Corner and then to Whistling Heath. Always pick north and you will get a Fourleaf Clover. Keep going north to leave the area. Ir a Tekshin Tavern and then to Goldfall.
Events at Open Country
From here head to Open Country. The event you want is «8-12 A country fair». If you get the bull event, just flee. There is no penalty for that. Después, return to Goldfall y vuelve a intentarlo.
At the country fair, there are three possible outcomes:
- 2 – 4: Lose all shards. This doesn’t matter.
- 5 – 7: You will lose half of your shards, which doesn’t matter. Sin embargo, you will also gain some items. Recoge el Herradura. You don’t need the other two.
- 8 – 12: obtienes un Pirate Captain’s Head. Guárdalo.
Keep doing this event, until you have at least two herraduras y al menos 4 o 5 more items. Whether you get additional herraduras o Pirate Captain’s Heads, no importa. Depending on your rolls, this might take a couple of minutes.
Getting shards at Metriciens
After you’ve gotten the items, go down to Metriciens a través de Tekshin Tavern, Monastery of Molhern, Whistling Heath (norte, norte, norte), Haggart’s Corner y East Road.
(Nota: I will not write down all areas between Metriciens y Goldfall ya no. If you are unsure, just check above.)
Sell all of your Pirate Captain’s Heads and sell all your herraduras except for two. You should at least have 500 shards now. Go back north to Goldfall.
Beloved of the Three Fortunes
Enter the temple of the Three Fortunes and become an initiate (90 fragmentos). If this is your first time initiated to a god, then you will get the achievement Higher Calling.
Afterwards you should start gambling. Join the sacred games for 20 shards each.
Hay 6 possible outcomes:
- 1: Drop a Fourleaf Clover or your starting weapon/armor. If afterwards you only have the two herraduras izquierda, go back down to Whistling Heath to farm more Fourleaf Clovers.
- 2, 4 o 5: Just retry.
- 3: You take 2 daño. Retry, if your stamina is 3/9 o superior. Si no, leave the temple and heal at the tavern before trying again.
- 6: This is what you want. It gives the title Beloved of the Three Fortunes.
20 rolls (400 fragmentos) debería ser más que suficiente. Sin embargo, if you are very unlucky, then you’ll have to get more shards using Pirate Captain’s Heads o herraduras.
(Nota: The chance for not rolling a 6 en 20 tries is around 2.6%.)
Rabbit’s Foot Charms
si tienes 60 shards left, then head to Rainbow River. Si no, you will have to get one more Herradura o Pirate Captain’s Head from the fair and sell it at Metriciens.
Volver a tirar Rainbow River until you are able to buy two Rabbit’s Foot Charms from event «2-6». The other two events don’t do anything.
(Nota: The hunter event can be used to get Large Potions of Nature.)
Haz que llueva
Once you have two Rabbit’s Foot Charms, dos herraduras and two Fourleaf Clovers you should participate in the preach at the temple in Goldfall. al final, hand your items over to the woman and you will gain +1 Sanctity.
Now join the preach again but instead keep the items. This will reward you with 1999 shards and the achievement Haz que llueva.

Enter the hamlet and you might contract Leprosy. This does not matter at all. Stay in the hamlet overnight and you will gain +1 Sanctity.

Quietly search the crypt and you will be able to pick to the Green Medallion.
(Nota: This item will not get used for a very long time.)

You will most likely fail it, but the outcome does not matter. si tienes éxito, you will be able to loot a pot of Faery Mead inmediatamente. si fallas, the game first checks your base sanctity. As it is greater than 5, obtendrás el Faery Mead también.
This will return you to the intersection again. Repeat this process to fill your inventory with 11 Faery Mead. You can drop anything you are carrying aside from the Green Medallion.
Once your inventory is full, go south to the edge of the woods and leave the forest.

(Nota: The chance, that the Trau to arrive, is around 28% per attempt. The chance, that the Trau do not turn up in 10 intenta, is approximately 3.9%.)
Sell the 11 Faery Mead para 900 Mithral each. You will end up with 9900 Mithral.
Buy the following items:

Capítulo 6: Ranking up
Heading north-west
De Yellowport, head north via Trefoille, Road Tavern y Main Road to reach Caran Baru. The worst that can happen, is hitting your head for 1 daño.
Ahora, head west via the Bronze Hills para alcanzar el Dragon Knights’ Castillo. Seek out the Black Dragon Knight and choose to fight it.
This guide avoids most fighting. If you have to clear an encounter, the guide will tell you how to get through it, even if all enemies constantly roll critical hits on you. Sin embargo, these explanations are lengthy and generally not necessary. I will do the explanation for this fight here, so you have an idea what to expect. En el futuro, the explanations will be in Appendices 2 y 3.
(Nota: The guide doesn’t skip the fighting because it is badly implemented. De hecho, the inclusion of skills is probably the greatest improvement over the gamebooks! Sin embargo, triggering a fight on ironman is always a little risky and analyzing all outcomes can be tedious.)
Luchar: Black Dragon Knight
The Black Dragon Knight is a very slow opponent with a reach of only 1 teja. It can not move and attack during the same turn. Tal como, it can never attack you, if you are not standing next to it.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment, move towards the knight.
=> The knight will walk towards you.
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (3 daño), Ataque (al menos 5 daño)
=> The knight is stunned.
Doblar 3: Ataque (al menos 5 daño), Ataque (al menos 5 daño)
=> The knight is dead.
Resumen (worst outcome): No damage taken.
tu recompensa
Take the quest item and head back east to Caran Baru a través del Bronze Hills. Turn the quest in at the tavern by asking about Yanryt.
Your reward is +1 Rango y el logro caída de caballero. You will also get the option to pick one out of three skills. You should pick Dominio del arma and learn it.
(Nota: You can also fight the rest of the Dragon Knights. Sin embargo, there isn’t a reason to do so, unless you desperately need shards.)
Greatest Story
De Caran Baru ir a Northern Road and north to Eastern Foothills. Climb up to reach a magic check. If you fail it, make sure to turn back. Then climb up again to get to the same check again.
Once you pass, talk to the Hermit about the quest. obtendrás +1 Carisma y el logro This One’s a Tribute.
To the Blessed Springs
Head back south to Caran Baru a través de Northern Road. De eso, move east to Coldbleak and finally south to the Blessed Springs.
Explore to enter the Holy Waters. Pagar 35 shards and throw the vial in. As reward, you should pick +1 Robo. Después, accept the quest and pick up the Amuleto de protección.
(Nota: You could fight the Gorlock here, but there is no real reason to do so.)
A Dragons Treasure
Leave and go back through Coldbleak, Caran Baru y Main Road, to reach Lake of the Sea Dragon. At worst: 1 daño.
(Nota: If you go west to el campo en cambio, you could get lost and possibly get poisoned afterwards. It isn’t a big deal, as you can get rid of it in Yellowport, but going there is annoying. If you went south via Eastern Road, you could run into a fight against two pilgrims. The fight isn’t hard, but there is no reason to do it.)
At the lake, visit the market and buy a Silver Nugget para 165 fragmentos. Now explore the area and hire a boat. Pay the fisherman 15 fragmentos, hand the Silver Nugget to the dragon and grab its tail.
Since you have the Amuleto de protección, the thievery check does not matter and you can pick up the chest. There are also three other treasures. You should pick Armadura de placa, Ebony Wand y 500 fragmentos.
If you passed the thievery check, you still have the Amuleto de protección in your bag. Por lo que yo sé, there is no other use for it. De este modo, you can just drop it.
Leave west toward Main Road. Then south to Road Tavern y Trefoille. De nuevo, the worst outcome is 1 daño. Visit the wizard and you will get +1 Magia y el logro Transmutación.
Go back north via Road Tavern y Main Road to reach Caran Baru. si el 1 damage rolls have been adding up, it is a good idea to heal at the tavern. Sell the Plate Armour (720 fragmentos) y el Ebony Wand (800 fragmentos) at the market.
Caran Baru
Buy a house in Caran Baru (200 fragmentos) to get access to your stash.
De aquí en adelante, the guide will make heavy use of ability potions. De este modo, you should always have some in your stash. Now is a good time to stock up. The route Caran Baru, Coldbleak, Blessed Springs is very fast, since it does not require dice rolls.
Sell or stash everything but the Soga y el Linterna. Get the following items:
- 0 X Potion of Strength
- 2 X Potion of Comeliness
- 0 X Potion of Intellect
- 2 X Potion of Godliness
- 4 X Potion of Stealth
- 0 X Potion of Nature
Considerándolo todo, this will cost you 500 fragmentos. You should still have around 3000+ shards left.
Volver a Caran Baru and stash all potions.
Book of the Seven Sages
Ahora, take a Potion of Stealth with you.
(Nota: If you want to saveguard against missclicks, now is a good time to get Potions of Healing. Sin embargo, if you follow the guide to the letter, you won’t need them.)
Make your way down to Yellowport a través de Main Road y Road Tavern. Afterwards move to Venefax. Heal at the tavern.
Make sure to buy Scorpion Antidote at the market for 100 fragmentos.
Después, move south to Scorpion Bight and a fight against two Scorpion Men will trigger. For information, ver Apéndice 2.
Resumen (worst outcome): You are at 2/11 (took 9 daño) and are now poisoned.
You should not pick up the Scorpion Venom, as there is no use for it. Open your inventory and use the following potions:
- Scorpion Antidote, to get rid of the poison.
- Potion of Stealth, Llegar +1 on the next thievery check.
Seleccionar «Go for it now» and you will auto-pass a thievery and a magic check. This allows you to get the quest item. Once you are done, you will automatically return to Venefax.
(Nota: Failing the thievery check means instant death.)
Heal at the tavern and return to Yellowport.
Turn in the book at the tavern and pick +1 Robo. You will also get the title Illuminate of Molhern y el logro Raider of the Lost Knowledge. This is all you should do in Sokara right now. Time to head back to Aku.
Capítulo 7: Hereje
Renouncing Sig
De Yellowport, ir a Marlock City.
En Marlock City visit the temple of Sig and renouce your worship (50 fragmentos).
Ahora, take the harbour passage to Wishport.
Scroll of Ebron
De Wishport caminar hasta Metriciens a través de East Road.
En Metriciens take the harbour passage to Ringhorn.
Explorar Ringhorn to sail upriver past Castle Ravayne a Delpton.
Explorar Delpton y dirígete al oeste. Seleccionar «Continue in Old Harkuna» y ve a Old Harkuna.
Estar aconsejado, that there are two of these areas. The guide only ever visits the eastern one.
(Nota: I am aware, that the western «Old Harkuna» is completely save, if you make the right choices. De hecho, it is actually very beneficial to go there, as you can get the «Blue Skin» title and 2000 fragmentos. Sin embargo, the developer could decide to actually turn your avatar blue! I certainly wouldn’t want that, so this guide will be avoiding that area like the plague.)
At the eastern Old Harkuna, there are two noteworthy events:
- 2 – 5: This is what you want. Buy a Scroll of Ebron para 200 fragmentos.
- 8 – 12: Your hair will be turned to gold. Having golden hair is slightly beneficial, as you will get some shards while traveling. Sin embargo, if you don’t want it, you can just reroll the area via High King’s Seat, until you get this event a second time. Entonces, your hair will be reverted to normal. There is no visual representation of the golden hair in the game (versión 1.0.13).
Reroll the area via High King’s Seat until you have the item and your hair is the color you want.
(Nota: This is also the area where you can buy Faery Mead para 200 fragmentos. This is useful if your sanctity is too low to pull off the farming in chapter 2.)
Going to Aku
De High King’s Seat dirígete a Troll Bridge. Pay the troll (5 fragmentos) and continue to Hall of Heroes.
(Nota: Fighting the troll at the moment is very dangerous. También, there is no significant reward and he will just keep coming back.)
De Hall of Heroes dirígete a Farmlands and finally to Aku.
Initiate of Ebron
Go to the temple and enter the Hall of Ablution (50 fragmentos). Go to the cathedral. Once you’ve handed over your Scroll of Ebron, you will become an Initiate of Ebron.
(Nota: You can try to get close to a lord, but the combat check is pretty high. There is no penalty for failing, but the rewards are also insignificant. As the guide assumes the worst outcome, it assumes that you’ve failed.)
Reaching the audience chamber
Now head to the palace and pay 50 fragmentos. Pagar 50 shards again and a hidden roll will trigger. Depending on your luck you will have to pay between 0 y 200 shards to finally reach the court.
Becoming an author
Talk to the Master of Documents of Fable and accept his task.
Help the princess and quest for the egg. The outcome of the rank check does not matter. Most likely you will fail. Ignore the other two adventures (treasure and magic portal) and return to your writing both times.
Your book will win a prize. Elegir +1 Magia. You also gain two court status and the achievement Neverending Story.
Becoming a heretic
Leave the audience chamber and the palace. Go to the temple of Ebron and renounce your worship. This is free but will mark a heretic in Uttaku.
Take the harbour passage to Metriciens.
(Nota: Being a heretic is kind of dangerous. Certain parts of Uttaku that used to be save, should not be visited anymore. If you try to cross the border near Ringhorn for example, the border guards will now try to arrest you. This could result in your death.)
Entering Castle Ravayne
Take one of your Potions of Comeliness out of your stash. Hacer no use the potion yet!
De Metriciens take the harbour passage to Ringhorn.
Explorar Ringhorn to sail upriver to Castle Ravayne.
Enter the castle. This will require a charisma check. si fallas, Tomarás 1 daño. Try again until you succeed. Obviamente, don’t kill yourself in the endevour. Should you ever get down to 1/11, then sail back down to Ringhorn and heal at the tavern.
(Nota: The chance for failing is about 17%. The chance for failing 10 times in a row is astronomically small.)
Once you are in the castle, try to enter the inner keep. You will need to convince the guards with another (easier) charisma check. This is where you should drink your Potion of Comeliness to automatically pass.
(Nota: Failing this charisma check could potentially kill you!)
Talk to the baroness about the quest «Spying on her foes» and accept the mission. Talk to her again to finish the quest. The rewards is +1 Robo, 100 shards and the achievement The Masked Singer.
Leave the castle and sail downriver to Ringhorn.
Take the harbour passage to Yellowport.
Capítulo 8: Up north
Officer’s Pass
De Yellowport get to Marlock City.
Here become an initiate of Sig (50 fragmentos). This gives you the +1 Thievery buff again.
Explore the Barracks area and trigger a combat check by returning the insult. This is not auto-passable, but failing will just reduce your stamina to 1. Both your shards and posessions will not be touched. You should not heal between tries. If you are at 1 stamina already and fail again, then there is no penalty at all.
Once you succeed, you will get an Officer’s Pass y 25 fragmentos.

As you will travel between this area and the southern Grimm Riverbank, ensure that you take the reward of the third story, a Large Potion of Comeliness. This item is unique and this is the only way to get it. Sin embargo, the guide does not use Large Potion of Comeliness so you don’t actually need it.

Opcional: Possible considerations
– If you are missing the achievements for one side, the decision should be obvious.
– From a meta-gaming perspective, it is better to side with Nergan Corin, since this nets you an additional +1 Combate.
– From a lore perspective, Nergan Corin is more loyal to your character. He would help you, if you got kidnapped in Yarimura. Grieve Marlock would just let you die.
– Sin embargo, siding with Grieve Marlock ends the civil war. Siding with Nergan Corin prolongs it. For the average Sokaran civilian it might be better if you sided with Grieve.
Option A: You want to kill Nergan Corin
Great choice! This is very easy.
Move to Yellowport and go to the Provost Marshal. Sobornar al capitán (5 fragmentos) and accept the mission.
Move north to Caran Baru a través de Trefoille, Road Tavern y Main Road. Then head east to Coldbleak. Climb the mountain, talk to the guard, pick Nergan Corin and convince the captain. You will auto-pass the charisma check.
Make the attempt to kill the king. Pick combat and you will auto-pass. Loot the quest item and pick thievery to auto-pass again. Viva!
Leave the mountains and head back to Yellowport, using the same route. Turn in the quest in at the Provost Marshal and you will get the following rewards:
- +1 Rango
- +1 Capacidad (elegir +1 Magia)
- 500 fragmentos
- Título: Protector of Sokara

You can now skip to the next chapter.
Option B: You want to kill Marloes Marlock
Great choice! This will be slightly more difficult.
Move north to Caran Baru a través de Trefoille, Road Tavern y Main Road. Entonces, head east to Coldbleak. Climb the mountain, talk to the guard, pick Nergan Corin and convince the captain. You will auto-pass the charisma check. Accept the quest.
Después, head south to Blessed Springs y comprar un Potion of Stealth at the alchemy shop. Head back north to Coldbleak and west to Caran Baru.
Aquí, deposit everything you own into the stash. This includes all shards, everything you have equipped and everything you are carrying.
Take three things back out:

Now head south to Yellowport a través de Main Road y Road Tavern.
At Yellowport, make sure that you have the White Sword equipped and drink the Potion of Stealth. Finally head toward the Provost Marshal. Utilice el 5 shards to bribe the captain and attempt to kill the marshal. Choose combat and you will auto-pass the check.
The following roll is purely luck based and cannot be influenced. De este modo, hay un 42% chance to end up at the mines and potentially die, ending your ironman run.
Make the roll and if you get «2-6 Desafortunado» make absolutely sure, that you drank the Potion of Stealth, before advancing the story.
Si obtienes 7-12 Afortunado
Move to Caran Baru and reequip yourself. Skip the next section.
Si obtienes 2-6 Desafortunado
You end up at the mines. Esto significa, that you lose everything that you were carrying. Excepto, you were only carrying the White Sword. This weapon cannot be taken from you.
In the mines you will meet Lauria again. Hacer no go along with her plan. She will betray you again and you will lose one charisma point. En cambio, try to escape on your own.
This requires a thievery check without equipment bonuses. Afortunadamente, the buff from the Potion of Stealth makes this an auto-pass. Move to Caran Baru and reequip yourself.
Premio
Después, head over to Coldbleak, turn in the quest and get the following rewards:
- +1 Rango
- +1 Capacidad (elegir +1 Magia)
- 500 fragmentos

- Logro: Asesino
Secuelas
Make sure to accept the follow-up quest for later, head west to Caran Baru and south to Yellowport. De este modo, you end up at the same place as players doing Option A.
(Nota: I am well aware, that a resurrection deal would have trivialized this whole endevor. But this guide will stay true to the ironman spirit and never let you die!)
Capítulo 12: Some preparations
Going back to Aku

On a second reward sceen you will get the Vade Mecum.

Investigate the gully and make an offering. Dejar caer Hacha de batalla and you will get the title Blessed of Tambu. Leave the gully and head north-east to Llanuras del norte.
Llanuras del norte
En Llanuras del norte there are three options. The outcome is pretty inconsequential.
- 2-5 A voice on the wind – Huddle down and take 1 daño. If you fail the scouting check after, you take another 1 daño.
- 6-7 No event – Results in an easy scouting check. Failing it causes 1 daño.
- 8-12 A band of nomads – If you fail the charisma check, there is a good chance to fail the tough scouting check after it. Sin embargo, the result is only 1 daño. If you succeed in the charisma check, then you get some options that don’t matter at all. They are used for mini-quests that don’t lead to achievements.
En resumen, the worst that can happen here, is losing 2 aguante.
Further west
Head north to Ruby Citadel and then west via Wastelands, Pyramid of Xinoc para alcanzar el Escalera.

Go up the mountain, to reach the city.
Sell the Selenium Wand para 3200 shards at the market.

You should be able to pass in 10 intenta (500 fragmentos), but don’t worry if it takes a little more money.

(Nota: I will not use the Rod of Teleportation ya no, as it is kind of cheating. Sin embargo, there is no other way to ensure your survival in the genie event.)
At Yarimura
Go to the market and buy the skill Adrenaline Burst para 1440 shards and learn it.
Capítulo 14: Castle Orlock
Getting to the castle
Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Yellowport.
llegar a Marlock City and take the passage to Wishport.
Resumen
If you followed the guide, then you will have the following:
- Climbing Gear equipped
- Magic and Scouting at 12
- Initiate of Lacuna
The only thing you need to pay attention to, are the smugglers in The Haunt (evento 2-6). When you get this event, stay hidden and move on.
Aparte de eso, nothing at Castle Orlock o The Haunt can harm you. You can roll the event as long as you want to. (Nota: Bad luck at the grimoire event is unavoidable.)
At the castle, there are three events:
- 2-5 An explorer’s book: +1 Scounting and +1 Rango (This is what you need.)
- 6-8 A magician’s grimoire: Cualquiera +1 Magic or -1 Magia. (You cannot gurantee the outcome.)
- 9-12 A cursed book: Does nothing if you are an Initiate of Lacuna.
Since you only need the +1 Rank and might skip the grimoire, there are three possible outcomes:
Best case: +1 Exploración, +1 Rango, +1 Magia
Good case: +1 Exploración, +1 Rango (Got the explorer’s book and stopped.)
Peor de los casos: +1 Exploración, +1 Rango, -1 Magia
The guide assumes the worst possible (but unpreventable) outcome:
+1 Rango, +1 Exploración, -1 Magia.
You will be able to pick a skill. deberías elegir Cleansing Flame and learn it.
Finalmente, también obtendrás el logro Ratón de biblioteca.
Once you are done, move back to Metriciens a través de The Haunt.
If you care about maxing out the stats of your character to the fullest, then you might want to read the next paragraph. De lo contrario, just skip to the next chapter.
Opcional: Magic skill and Potions of Intellect in the following chapters
As you might have actually gotten the good outcome +0 Magia, or the best outcome +1 Magia, the guide does not reflect your magic skill correctly anymore.
Esto significa dos cosas:
Primero, you will never have to use Potions of Intellect de nuevo.
Segundo, the guide will pick +1 Magic when chooseing an ability score to increase.
You should instead pick +1 Thievery once, if you got the good outcome (+0 Magia). Or even twice if you got the best outcome (+1 Magia).
Opcional: Rerolling castle Orlock
si lo eres «cheating» on ironman difficulty or playing on a lower difficulty and plan on reloading the event, until you get the best result, then be aware that the hidden roll determining the outcome is done antes even entering Castle Orlock. De este modo, reloading at the castle will not change the outcome. Sin embargo, the result can change without completely restarting your character. Desafortunadamente, the exact reroll condition is unknown to me.
Opcional: Exlaining Caslte Orlock
En mi opinión, Castle Orlock is one of the most interesting parts of the game. In the next three paragraphs, I will explain The Haunt and Castle Orlock in detail. If you aren’t interested, then just skip to the next chapter.
Opcional: The Haunt
The first challenge, is getting through The Haunt. It is unavoidable to roll events in The Haunt before entering or after leaving the castle.
There are three noteworthy events:
2-6 Smugglers: Stay hidden and move on.
8-9 A pitfall: As long as you have climbing gear, you will get through this event unscathed. With scouting 12, you can also just auto-pass the scouting check.
10-12 A coven meeting: This is the problematic event. Failing the magic check will teleport you directly to Haunted Hills. You will also be forced to roll an event there. Haunted Hills is one of the most dangerous zones in the entire game. It features one of the hardest fights (dragon), robbers that can potentially steal everything and a ghost that can instantly kill you.
(Nota: If you fail a sanctity 14 controlar, the ghost has a damage potential of 18, rolling 3d6.)
As being teleported there could easily result in death, you need at least magic 10 to make it through The Haunt safely.
Opcional: Grimoire event
The randomness of the grimoire event is the reason why you actually need magic 11 and not magic 10 before trying Castle Orlock safely. If you enter the castle at magic 10 and it gets reduced to 9, you could afterwards roll the coven event. Now there is a small chance to fail the magic check. As a result you could trigger the dragon fight, the robbers or the ghost!
(Nota: You could also prevent this with a couple of Potions of Intellect.)
Opcional: The monster of Castle Orlock
Para empeorar las cosas, there is also the monster. It will insta-kill you, if you fail a scouting check (difficullty 13), unless you have an Pluma exótica with you. El Pluma exótica is removed from your inventory, once it has been used. De este modo, unless you have scouting 12+, you need to farm Exotic Feathers to gurantee survival. At worst, you would need a feather for every trip to the castle.
Capítulo 15: Finishing Sokara
(Nota: Now that you have acquired Cleansing Flame it is time to finish up Sokara. Seguro, this can be done earlier, but now it is very easy to describe the fights. También, I know that you can buy Cleansing Flame en Marlock City para 1440 fragmentos. Why waste the shards though.)
The golden net

- 2 – 4 A sulphrous cave: This is the dragon fight you are looking for. As it is somewhat dangerous, you might want to read about it in Apéndice 3.
Resumen (worst outcome): 1/18 + uno Potion of Healing usado (22 damage taken)
despues de la pelea, take the quest item. - 5 – 6 A prophet of doom: Lose all blessings and resurrections. This doesn’t matter to you.
(Nota: I find it pretty funny, that the authors of the gamebooks put these events into the same area. There is a good chance, that you will encounter the dragon without a resurrection deal!) - 8 – 9 Forajidos: This is an event you also want. Pass a thievery check and a charisma check (both auto-passable now). Accept the offer to get 300 shards and +1 Robo.
(Nota: If you fail both checks, which are fairly high, they will take everything you are carrying. De este modo, this event is dangerous, if you come here with low thievery/charisma.) - 10 – 12 A hungry ghost: This ghost requires a sanctity check. This is auto-passable.
(Nota: The ghost has a damage potential of 18 (3d6). Failing this check can easily kill you.)
Cerciorarse, that you have killed the dragon and gotten the outlaws at least once, before moving on.
Paladin of Ravayne
Desde Haunted Hills move south-west to the (falso) Tower of Despair and then to Marmorek. Explorar, to sail downriver until you reach Castle Ravayne. Enter the castle and enter the Inner Keep (auto-pass).
Talk to the baroness, in pursuit of a quest, slaying a monster, accept the mission. Do the same dialog again, to get the following rewards:
- +1 Rango
- el titulo Paladin of Ravayne
- The achievement La guarida del dragón
- +1 Capacidad, elegir +1 Magia
(Nota: Unless you were very lucky at Castle Orlock, in that case pick +1 Thievery.)
Reward for the map
Talk to the Baroness again. Accept the quest to make a map. Then talk to her yet another time to turn the quest in and get your reward. Es 500 fragmentos, +1 Exploración y el logro Brokeback Mountain.
(Nota: Your base scouting skill is now at maximum!)
Getting a Boon
Leave the inner keep. You have now access to your stash. Unequip your Vulcanium Mail and stash it. Go back to the inner keep, talk to the baroness and ask for a boon.
There are three outcomes:
1 – 3 Capacitación – This is what you want. Elegir +1 Combate.
4 – 5 Armadura – This will take your current armor and give you a Splint Armour en cambio. (Useless.)
6 A ship – Esto te dará (otro) barque in Ringhorn. (Pretty useless.)
Keep rerolling until you get the skill bonus. After you are done, sell the Splint Armour para 360 shards if you got it, take your Vulcanium Mail out of your stash and equip it.
Now leave the castle and sail downriver to Ringhorn.
Capítulo 22: Piratas
At Ringhorn
Make sure to get a blessing against storms from the temple of Almir and Valmir.
If you got another barque from the baroness, then sell it. Take your barque with excellent crew and sail into the Coastal Waters south-west of Ringhorn.
(Nota: You have been there before.)
There are four noteworthy events:
2-4 Storm – Use your blessing, return to Ringhorn, buy another blessing and try again.
5-6 Piratas – This is one of the events you want. If you get it, read below.
8-9 Ship of Wizards – Sail on.
10-12 Mermaids – This is the other event you want. If you get it, read below.
The pirate event
Choose to fight them. The three possible outcomes are:
10 – 13 Forced to give in (0.46%)
14 – 17 The pirates withdraw (15.74%)
18+ Victoria (83.80%)
Fracaso
It is very unlikely, but if you do get beaten, then you will lose up to 6 aguante (1d6). A charisma check will trigger, but you will auto-pass it. You will then get 320 fragmentos + some random stuff and be taken to Yarimura.
Sin embargo, you will not lose any of your gear or shards. De este modo, heal at the tavern, utilizar el Vade Mecum to get back to Ringhorn, buy a new ship, upgrade the crew and try again.
(Nota: This is a net gain in shards even!)
Dibujar
Volver a Ringhorn y vuelve a intentarlo.
Victoria
Once you win, obtendrás +1 Rango y el logro No Guts, No Glory. Más, pick whichever skill you want. También obtendrás 800 shards and a Pirate Captain’s Head, but that is not important at this point in the playthrough.
You only need this event once to rank up. Pero, since you are rank 8 ahora, the minimum roll is 14. De este modo, there is no chance of losing anymore.
The mermaid event
Once you get the mermaids, speak to them and try to catch her in a net. As you are rank 7 (o 8), this cannot fail. toma el Coral-red Tresses, the other treasure does not matter and sail back to Ringhorn. You only need the item once, so just sail on, if you get the event again before getting pirates.
Golden Katana
En Ringhorn utilizar el Vade Mecum to reach Aku. Allá, take the passage to Metriciens.
Move north to East Road and via Haggart’s Corner reach Magworts Fens.
A scouting check will trigger, but it will be auto-passed. You don’t need the potion, but if you want to take it, hazlo. After going further into the fen, recoger el Golden Katana.
Now move back south and reach Metriciens. Take the passage to Ringhorn.
Castle Ravayne
Explore the city and sail upriver until you reach Castle Ravayne. Enter the castle and enter the inner keep.
Seek out the wizard and hand him Coral-red Tresses. The reward is +1 Magia.
Seek out the wizard again and hand him Golden Katana. As reward pick +1 Combate. You will also get the achievement Am I A Joke To You.
(Nota: This finishes Castle Ravayne!)
Sail back downriver to Ringhorn.
Capítulo 23: One last round
The Ruby Citadel
Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Yarimura.
Cerciorarse, that you are at full health 20/20 and head north to Village of Vodhya, then west to Montañas del Norte and west to Ruby Citadel.
Investigate the glow and enter the citadel. You will bypass the fight since your base sanctity is greater than 8. Más, you will auto-pass the magic check.
Choose to play the right note using your flute and auto-pass the charisma check.
The next roll is the reason why you cannot do this event earlier. If you get unlucky, then you could take up to 18 (3d6) daño. Before rank 8, this could mean instant death! Now the outcome doesn’t matter much. Your reward is +1 Carisma y el logro Dissonant Harmonies.
volver a Yarimura to heal back up.
Preparativos
Make sure that you have the Sword of Water with you and that you have the quest
Remnants of the Past.
(Nota: If you do not have the quest, teleport to Yellowport, tomar el Verdigris Key and head to Trefoille. Take the third door to reach the Isle of Mystery. Visit the chief mage and pick up the quest. Ahora, and this is important, take the teleport off the island or you might end up as a slave, if a certain ship picks you up.)
Going west
Move north to Village of Vodhya and head all the way west via Montañas del Norte, Ruby Citadel, Wastelands y Pyramid of Xinoc.
Move south to reach Residuos Congelados.
There are two noteworthy events:
2 – 5: Wild horses – You will trigger a sanctity check and auto-pass it. Leave the horses alone.
8-12: Running Footsteps – This is the event you want. Follow the nomad, but make sure to help the shamans. You will gain +1 Sanctity y un Witch’s Hand.
Keep or drop the hand, no importa.
Remnants of the Past
Once you are done, equip your Sword of Water. Now move south-west to River of Destiny. Ignore both events there.
(Nota: You shouldn’t step into Residuos Congelados ya no, as it could trigger a fight with wolves. They aren’t hard but there is no point fighting them. Especially since you would probably have to swap around your weapons between White Sword y Sword of Water. That would just be annoying.)
Now move south to Grasslands. Two noteworthy events can play out:
2 – 5 A beguiling flute – You will auto-pass a magic check and you can pick up a decent reward. You already have it though, so you can just ignore it.
8 – 12 A ring of stones – This is what you want. Copy the runes. You will auto-pass the checks.
Reroll the area via Rimewater until you get it.
Turn in
Once you got it, go back east via City of Ruins, Strange Gully, Southern Plains, Beladai’s Camp y Gemstone Hills a Yarimura. Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Yellowport.
toma el Verdigris Key out of your stash and go to Trefoille. Take the third door to teleport to the Isle of Mystery. Go up the mountain and enter the city. Turn in the quest at the chief mage and you will get +1 Magia y el logro See No Evil.
Now leave the city and make sure to take the teleport for 100 fragmentos. You could end up as a slave, if a certain ship picks you up!
Preparación
Ahora, utilizar el Vade Mecum llegar a Aku.
Make sure that you have the Sword of Water equipado. Your magic skill should be 18.
Head east to Farmlands (it doesn’t matter if your charisma gets reduced) and south-east to Mixen Sumps. There are two noteworthy events:
2 – 5: A sunken idol – Ignore the idol.
(Nota: The reward is not worth it and there is a small chance to get poisoned.)
8 – 12: An ugly guide – This is what you want. Refusing her offer will trigger a very hard magic check and subsequently a fight. As you are wearing the Sword of Water, you will auto-pass. Ahora, before clicking «FIGHT», make sure to swap your Sword of Water back to White Sword.
The fight is not difficult, but if you want some information check Apéndice 3.
Resumen (worst outcome): 17/20 (3 damage taken)
As reward you will get +1 Sanctity.
(Nota: You have now maxed out your sanctity!)
Your own castle
Volver a Aku and teleport to Ringhorn. Cerciorarse, that you still have the Piqueta with you.
(Nota: Si no, sail all the way upriver to Marmorek and get a new one.)
Then head west and go to Castillo Viejo.
An event will play out and you will get Recall Spells. You will also get the achievement Castle Doctrine. You can stash the Recall Spells at your castle.
(Nota: Similar to the Rod of Teleportation these are a little like cheating.)
Opcional: Explore your castle and upgrade its defenses to 5. Esto requiere 1600 fragmentos, a pickaxe and a combat check (auto-pass).
Now go to the Blacksmith and buy a Leather Armour.
Después, summon Targdaz and have him enchant it.
If the item vanishes, buy another one. If it works, obtendrás el logro Arms Race.
Discard the Ring Mail or sell it at the next city.
Go back east to Ringhorn a través de Coastal Road.
Capítulo 24: The High King
Preparación
Teleport to Aku and a buy a Potion of Comeliness. También, recoger el Sceptre of Kings from your stash. Controlar, that you have the Sword of Water with you.
Más, it is imperative that you are sure, that you did get the information from the High King’s Seat a couple of chapters ago. I hope that you made a note. De lo contrario, travel there again to make sure.
(Farmlands, Hall of Heroes, Singing Forest, Old Harkuna (este), High King’s Seat.)
Storm Demon
Ahora, teleport to Yarimura usando el Vade Mecum.
Head north to the Village of Vodhya and west via Montañas del Norte a Ruby Citadel.
De eso, head south to Llanuras del norte. Reroll the area until you get «2-5 A voice in the wind.»
Once you get the correct event, follow the voices and you will take 1 daño. You will the auto-pass two sanctity checks and be rewarded with +1 Carisma y algunos Selenium Ore.
(Nota: You have tons of Selenium. Take it or leave it.)
Going west
Head north to Ruby Citadel and west via Wastelands, Pyramid of Xinoc, River of Destiny to reach Rimewater in the south-west. From there go south into the Ice Mine.
Pagar 10 shards to go on a tour. Go down into the dark tunnel and you will auto-pass a scouting check. You will meet Blue-Cap and pay him 200 shards to smash the ice.
(Nota: You can also kill him to open the path or bring salts, but paying 200 shards is the easiest option.)
Now you will meet the Ice Queen. You cannot beat her in a fight, so you need the song to proceed.
(Nota: If you try to fight her, you will automatically lose a rank and thus, fail the ironman achievement.)
Utilice el Potion of Comeliness to pass the check and you will wake the High King.
Your reward is +1 Rango, +1 Capacidad (elegir +1 Robo) y el logro Lullaby Dirge. You will get moved to Rimewater.
Heading to High King’s Seat
Equip the Sword of Water and head to the Pastizales. Go south into the mountains and further south to Marmorek. Explore the city and pay 1 shard to cross. Seleccionar «continue in Old Harkuna» and reach the High King’s Seat.
At High King’s Seat
Visit the area and an event will play out. Go to the palace and you will automatically accept a quest. Go to the palace again and you will hand over the Sceptre of Kings.
The rewards are +1 Rango, una habilidad (pick whichever you like) y el logro Rise a Knight.
Más, you will get the achievement for getting rank 10 (Poder abrumador) and the achievement for getting rank 10 on ironman (Iron Adventurer).
(Nota: If you have some Selenium Ore with you, you can hand it in at the palace for 800 fragmentos. That is the best use for it now.)
Heading back
Move east to River Reese and pay 1 shard to cross. Explorar Marmorek and sail all the way downriver to Ringhorn.
Capítulo 25: Adventures at sea
Preparación
In Ringhorn, sell your trusty barque and buy a galleon (850 fragmentos). Upgrade your crew all the way to excellent (140 fragmentos).
Important events at sea
toma nota, that the game can randomly toss you around the map, when running into storms. Sin embargo, the chance for a split mast is very low (0.46%). There is no chance to die from the event itself, as your scouting is very high. Sin embargo, you could run into a couple of events that might actually kill or harm your progress in an upcomming DLC. I will list the «peligroso» events here, going by area from west to north-east. Just quickly look them up if you encounter a special event on the way to an achievement.
1. Pirates in general
Never parley with pirates! They might steal you stuff. Either outrun them or beat them up. Nothing bad can happen from those two choices.
2. Uttaku
Storms and pirates only. Nothing can kill or even harm you here. (As far as I know.)
3. Golnir
A ship of wizards – This is not dangerous, as you will auto-beat them in a fight. Sin embargo, in a DLC you might meet them again. De este modo, I do not recommend fighting. Sail on.
The Ship of Souls – This event will cost you your ship. También, there is a chance to die. Just sail on, if you encounter it in the eastern part of Golnir.
4. Sokara
Sea Battle – In western Sokara you can pick a side in a sea battle. This event can only be done once. If you get it, you should help the pirates, as this gives you a unique item, that might be used in a DLC (Silver Medallion).
A merchant ship – Between Marlock City and Yellowport, you can meet a merchant ship. This event can only be done once. If you get it, you should assist the Merchants. This triggers something, that could become important in a DLC.
A shipwreck – This event happens on the northern coast of Sokara. It is not dangerous, but I am including it, since you might trigger an (fácil) luchar. If you want to avoid it, don’t investigate the shipwreck.
5. Isle of Druids
An unusual catch – This event is unique and can kill you, if you pick the wrong options. Spare the sea centaur and you will get a Conch of Safety. That item is also unique.
6. The Great Steppes
A ship-wrecked mariner – This event is in the same area as the Avar Hordeth event. Pick him up, or you will miss out on a long quest, that might become important in a DLC.
A fire in the distance – This event can trigger a fight if you follow the light. Just sail on.
The relevant events
Now these are the events that you actually want to trigger to get your remaining achievements. Assuming you start from Ringhorn and you want to get all of them in a single run.
Boomstick
De Ringhorn sail east to the coastal waters that are located south-east of Scorpion Bight in Sokara. Reroll this area until you get «8-9 A ship of bizarre design». Enter the craft and take the Magic Stick with you. This will unlock the achievement Indistinguishable From Magic.
Avar Hordeth
De eso, sail north until the map shifts to the Great Steppes. On the very first area you want the event «11-12 A merchant ship». This is actually Avar Hordeth’s flagship. Somehow he knows that you robbed him and wants to fight you.
Getting this event is rather rare (8.3%). Reroll the area using the Coastal Waters just west of it. Nothing bad can happen to you.
(Nota: The rarity is the reason, why not many people have this achievement. Rolling the area 25 veces, there still is a chance of 11% that you will not get the event. Sin embargo, rolling the area 50 veces, this goes down to 1.3%. It should not take more than 10 minutes to get it.)
Una vez que lo consigas, sail to meet it. This will trigger a fight. For information, look at Apéndice 3.
There really is no way to die here unless you do not kill Avar first.
Resumen (worst outcome): 2/22 (20 damage taken).
After the fight you will roll three dice, but your rank (+10) and your excellent crew (+3), will get added. De este modo, you will always score 16+ and automatically win.
(Nota: I wonder if Avar was actually a bad guy. There is only a throw-away line saying that some of his dealing are a little shady. It seems like you are kind of the «evil guy» in this sub-plot.)
De todos modos, you can swap ships, but it doesnt matter as you are also sailing a galleon. You will also gain 150 shards and a Mariner’s Ruttier. This item is useless right now, but maybe it will be useful in a DLC. Finalmente, obtendrás el logro Qué’s Yours Is Mine.
Bazalek Island
From where you beat Avar, sail west twice. Si obtienes «10-12 A fire in the distance», just ignore it. You will then auto-pass a scouting check and you can explore the island.
Do so and press on inland.
(Nota: The cave is completely useless.)
Swim through the river and you will auto-pass two ability checks.
(Nota: You can also fight the knight, but it only gives you shards.)
Elegir «Vaso» or the golem will kill you. This will give you a number of shards (entre 1000 y 6000) and also the achievement High Risk, High Reward.
(Nota: If you collect unique items/weapons, then you should return to the island and reach the golem again. Elegir «Scarlet» y obtendrás un Mythic Sword. This is probably the 3rd best weapon in the game.)
This finishes the chapter unless you want to read about some statistics about a third visit to Bazalek.
Opcional: A third visit to Bazalek
It is obvious, that you should not visit the golem at Bazalek a third time, as your survival is completely up to chance. The event is interesting though, as it is the only time, that the game actually throws 4 dados. (Maybe there are other instances, that I am unaware of.)
So if you reach the golem a third time, you have to roll 4 dice and score 4 o 5.
The chance for 4 on 4d6 is 1 en 1296 or around 0.077%.
The chance for 5 on 4d6 is 4 en 1296 or around 0.309%.
De este modo, your chance of death is 1291 en 1296 or around 99.614%.
If you have a luck blessing, you can roll twice and the chance of death is around 99.23%.
If you are an Initiate of the Three Fortunes, you only have to roll 3 dice and score 3-5.
The chance for 3 on 3d6 is 1 en 216 or around 0.46%.
The chance for 4 on 3d6 is 3 en 216 or around 1.39%.
The chance for 5 on 3d6 is 6 en 216 or around 2.78%.
De este modo, your chance of death is 206 en 216 or around 95.37%.
If you have a luck blessing, you can roll twice and the chance of death is around 90.96%.
Or in other words, there is a roughtly 9% posibilidad de supervivencia.
Esto significa, that being an Initiate of the Three Fortunes makes survival about 12 times more likely.
In the gamebooks, you got 1000-6000 shards again. I’ve never actually tried in the game. With quicksave and quickload it shouldn’t take too long. I wonder if anyone tried it yet.
Capítulo 26: Leftovers
From Bazalek, sail north (nothing bad can happen, except a storm) and reach Yarimura.
Stash everything you want to keep and sell/drop the rest.
Inversión
This achievement is very easy to get, once you have access to the Vade Mecum.
It does require a tiny bit of legwork.
Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Yellowport. Explore the city by day and visit the harbour area. You will gain some information.
Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Aku. Visit the trading guild and you will get some information. Return to the town centre.
Utilice el Vade Mecum to teleport to Ringhorn and visit the trading guild.
Make an investment of 2300 shards and check on it.
The information you just got gives you a +5 on the next roll. De este modo, the worst result is a 7, which results in a 10% loss of the investment. Still as the investment is above 2000 fragmentos, obtendrás el logro The Wolf of Shard Street.
Take the investment out or leave it. It does not matter.
Preparativos
Utilice el Vade Mecum and teleport to Yarimura.
(Nota: Remember when I said that this guide will get you all achievements safely on ironman without using resurrection deals? Well turns out, it can not be done (sin hacer trampa). In the gamebooks, the check in the pyramid was a rank check. In the game it is purely based on luck. You cannot use teleportation items either, so resurrection deals are the only way to get it.)
Check if you have a resurrection deal active. Si no (very likely) then buy one at the temple of Nisoderu for 800 fragmentos.
(Nota: If you care about your shards, then you can also move south-west to Sky Mountain a través de Gemstone Hills, Beladai’s Camp y Southern Plains. There it is only 150 fragmentos. But if you get unlucky serveral times, this will require some extra walking back and forth.)
Unequip and stash everything, except the White Sword. If you have to buy a new tab, hazlo.
Después, deposit all of your shards.
Reaching the pyramid
Now move west to the Pyramid of Xinoc a través de Village of Vodhya, Montañas del Norte, Ruby Citadel y Wastelands (1 daño).
Approach the gates and walk past the idols. You will auto-pass the combat check. Go through the archway and you will trigger a magic check. As you are not wearing any gear, this is not auto-passable (92% éxito). Sin embargo, failing does not matter. You will simply get a curse, that won’t impede you at all.
Now all your items and equipment will be taken from you. Sin embargo, since you didn’t have anything on you anyway and the White Sword cannot be taken from you, this does not matter.
Eventualmente, you will get to the dreaded luck roll. 42% chance you die, 58% chance you live.
If you get lucky, then pass over the next paragraph.
Desafortunado
Bien, tu mueres. Use the resurrection deal to respawn at Yarimura (o Sky Mountain).
(Nota: A save route from Sky Mountain a Yarimura is via Southern Plains, Beladai’s Camp y Gemstone Hills.)
Now take 800 shards out of your stash and get a new resurrection deal.
(Nota: O 150 shards and get a new one at Sky Mountain.)
Move back to the Pyramid of Xinoc a través de Village of Vodhya, Montañas del Norte, Ruby Citadel y Wastelands (1 daño). The events will play out exactly the same. Excepto, if you are already cursed, then you cannot get the curse twice.
Ahora, you might get unlucky again. Repetir el proceso.
(Nota: I totally understand, if you feel like cheating now, but it really won’t take more than 5-10 intenta. The chance for getting unlucky 5 times in a row is 1.3%. The chance for getting unlucky 10 times in a row is 0.016%. You have more than enough shards and a run takes about two minutes.)
Afortunado
Finally you get lucky. You take up to 6 (1d6) damage from the beetle and move to the inner chamber. Here you can take the Obsidian Key.
Take the same route back to Yarimura.
(Nota: The damage potential of this whole adventure is 8 daño. One for every time you pass Wastelands and 6 from the beetle. So at 22 stamina you don’t need to heal.)
Preparations again
Take everything out of your stash and equip everything you need to equip. Also withdraw your shards. If you got cursed, explore the city and go to the Tower of Bakhan. Here you can get rid of the curse for free.
Ahora, also take the Banner of the Shadar out of your stash and check that you have the Obsidian Key with you. Make sure to heal before leaving the city.
The Ruined City
Take the southern route via Gemstone Hills, Beladia’s Camp y Southern Plains hacia City of Ruins. Explore the city and use the banner.
Visit the Crypt of Kings and you will auto-pass a magic check. This will trigger a fight. As the snake demon only has 10 stamina left, I will just post the fight details here.
-Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment
-Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante + Ataque
Obtendrás un Scarab Amulet. Ahora, utilizar el Obsidian Key and you will get a bunch of items. Take whatever you want. The only thing that matters is the Pyramid Key. So make sure to take that.
Back to the pyramid
Leave the city and move north via Horde of the Thundering Skies y Wastelands para alcanzar el Pyramid of Xinoc. Go past the idols and use the Pyramid Key. This unlocks the achievement Tomb Raider.
More preparations
volver a Yarimura y usar el Vade Mecum to go to Aku. Sell or stash the items you picked up. Una vez que estés listo, take the harbour passage to Metriciens.
toma el Green Medallion out of your stash.
(Nota: This is the first item you ever stashed, all the way back in chapter 2!)
Heading north
Ahora, go all the way north to Forsaken Forest a través de East Road, Haggart’s Corner, Whistling Heath (norte, norte, norte), Tekshin Tavern, Goldfall y Rainbow River.
El (real) Tower of Despair
Al Forsaken Forest, do not enter the leper hamlet. Instead press on and take the path into the woods. At the intersection go right and then west. Unlock the tower using your thievery skill.
Approach the wolves and use the green medallion to skip the fight.
toma el Espada encantada y el Regal Helmet.
(Nota: This is the only good helmet in the game!)
Now select «Gather some treasure» but don’t actually take any shards. This will lead to another roll that can not be influenced. There are two outcomes:
2 – 10 Afortunado (91.7%) y 11-12 Desafortunado (8.3%)
Whichever outcome you get, obtendrás +1 Robo y el logro Bat Market.
Sin embargo, if you get «Desafortunado» you lose 1d6 stamina permanently.
Now you have gotten all achievements in the game! And in a single run on ironman! Grats!
Feel free to pass to the next chapter or just close the guide.
Opcional: Should you risk doing Bat Market on your ironman character?
Bien, if you are cheating the outcome of rolls, then definately yes.
Conseguir eso +1 Robo is nice.
Sin embargo, if you play without cheats, then I would not risk it. Seguro, the chance to lose 4-6 stamina permanently is very low. Especially if you get a luck blessing at Goldfall before entering the forest. Sin embargo, it can still happen!
As there will be a lot of chances in upcomming DLCs to get +1 Robo, I value the stamina much higher. De este modo, I would personally argue, that you should skip the shards, the achievement and the +1 Robo.
Obviously this is up to you though, that’s why I left this achievement till the very end.
This is also the reason why the guide never did the «Conjuror of Amusements». Vencido 1 stamina permanently for 1 magic is simply not worth it.
Capítulo 27: Maximum stats
Bien, you have pretty much beaten the game and there is not much more for you to do.
If you want to prepare your character for the DLCs, then you could try and maximize your stats.
If you have been following the guide, then your base stats are:
Carisma – 11
Combate – 11 o 12 (depending on your choice in the civil war)
Magia – 11
Sanctity – 12
Exploración – 12
Robo – 10 a 12 (depending on Castle Orlock and/or Bat Market)
Aguante: 16-22 (depending on Bat Market)
There are ways to get some additional stats out of the slave areas in Uttaku. Sin embargo, while those adventures are pretty cool, they are also very risky. This is due to the fact, that all gear is taken from you when you become a slave.
As such there really only is the unicorn event (+1 charisma and +1 magia).
Sin embargo, doing this event is rather annoying. De este modo, I didn’t include it in the guide.
If you do want to do it, you should first head over to Aku.
Preparativos
Keep your equipment but stash everything you are carrying in your bags.
Now fill your inventory with 12 Potions of Healing.
Move up the western path via West Road, Kunrir, West Countryside, House of the Unbidden, to finally reach Icicle Forest.
If you are unlucky (evento «2-5») you have to fight three snow wolves here.
Now head east to Northern Grumes.
Northern Grumes
This area has three noteworthy events:
- 2-4 A storm in the mountains. (This does nothing, as you will auto-pass the scouting check.)
- 8-11 An ambush. (This triggers a fight against a bunch of triplings.)
- 12 A rare sight. (This is the unicorn event that you want.)
Keep rerolling the area until you get the unicorn. Annoyingly, this means you have to fight the wolves and the triplings repeatedly.
Eventually you will get the unicorn event. Try to befriend it.
You have to choose the sanctity check. Both the magic and the charisma check won’t reward you with anything. This check should be an auto-pass, since your sanctity (with gear) should be at 16.
The reward will be +1 charisma and +1 magia.
Opcional: How long will this take?
Really it is all up to luck. If you enter Northern Grumes 100 veces, then there is a chance of 94%, that you will get the unicorn event.
Sin embargo, this also means you will have to fight the wolves around 30 times and the triplings around 40 veces. So yea … entre 0.5-3 hours maybe?
Opcional: No other way?
Desafortunadamente, the only other area that allows access to Northern Grumes son los Standing Stones in the east. This area can trigger a fight against 4 tougher wolves, entonces Icicle Forest is the better option.
Opcional: Jade defender
If you investigate the waterfall, you can find a mythical sword. Sin embargo, el White Sword is much better, so there is no real reason to get it.
Capítulo 28: The end
If you want to play ironman again, I recommend to give your character a fitting end.
(Nota: Of course you can simply delete the save, but that is pretty unceremonial.)
Return to the Montañas del Norte west of Yarimura and enter the Bronze Gate. You will be greeted by an Angel of Death. Ahora, you can join Nagils banquet.
(Nota: This is essentially a hero’s end in Norse mythology. Sitting next to Odin in Valhalla.)
Have fun with your new character!

Apéndice 2: Encuentros
(Nota: In my testing only very few enemies ever blocked attacks in a previous versions of the game. En 1.0.9 no enemy ever blocked. Maybe they all have a very low chance to block and I just never see it?)
Capítulo 6: Black Dragon Knight
The Black Dragon Knight is a very slow opponent with a reach of 1 teja. It can not move and attack in the same turn. Tal como, it can never attack you, if you are not standing next to it.

Both Scorpion Men have a reach of 2. A lo sumo, they can move one tile and attack in the same turn. Tal como, they can never attack you, if you are at least 4 mosaicos.
Desafortunadamente, you can not avoid damage completely in this fight. Even at extremely high defence, a Scorpion Man could always roll a critical hit (12 on 2d6). While this critical hit could still be blocked (20% del tiempo), in a worst case scenario it results in 3 daño.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment, move towards the closest target but stay 4 mosaicos.
Worst case outcome (muy raro, see screenshot for reference):
=> Both Scorpion Men will walk towards you.
=> They are not next to each other and between them is a tile that is not passable.

Capítulo 15: Rat Shaman and Rat Warrior
Both rat enemies can only move for 4 AP. Eso significa, that they can only move 2 normal tiles or 1 special tile. Más, they only have a reach of 1 and can never attack if they also moved.
Doblar 1: Identify the target that is closest to you. Move towards it, so it is 4 tiles away from you.

The two Manbeasts have a reach of 1. If they move 1 tile for 2 AP, they can still attack you.
Both enemy-types crit for 4 daño.
Doblar 1: Identify the Manbeast that is closest to you. Move towards it, so it is 4 tiles away from you.
=> All three enemies will walk towards you.
Doblar 2: Usar Cleansing Flame on the nearest Manbeast (11 daño). If somehow a target is closer than 3 azulejos, alejarse.
=> Manbeast 1 is dead. Manbeast 2 and She-devil will walk towards you.
Doblar 3: Target the She-Devil with Stunning Blow (5 daño) and Attack (al menos 6 daño).
=> Only Manbeast 2 is alive. At worst, it will crit you for 4 daño.
Doblar 4: Attack Manbeast 2 (al menos 6 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Ataque (al menos 6 daño)
=> All targets are dead.
Capítulo 16: Two Giant Chameleon
Both of them have a reach of 2. Both of them can move up to 3 azulejos. También, they have the ability to move one regular tile and attack on the same turn. Además, their maximum damage on a critical hit is extremely high (10).
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment.
=> Both will rush towards you.
Now here is the worst case scenario:
The chameleon are not adjacent to each other and the tile between them is not passable.
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño)
=> One is stunned at 6/19, the other crits you for 10 daño. You are now at 6/16.
Doblar 3: Attack the low target (al menos 7 daño), use two healing potions to get back to 16/16.

=> The other chameleon crits you for 10 de nuevo. You are now at 6/16.

Doblar 6: Ataque (al menos 6 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Cleansing Flame (11 daño).
=> Muerto.
(Nota: I am aware, that this is super unlikely. Más, you could also move tiles backwards to lure the chameleon into a better position. Sin embargo, it is hard to explain that on a randomly generated map. In reality it will not play out like this anyway.)
Capítulo 16: Kaschuf
Kashuf is fast but a single opponent with low health. Tal como, esto es muy fácil.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment.

=> The remaining wolf might be in range and crits you for 5 daño.
Doblar 4: Ataque (al menos 7 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Ataque (al menos 7 daño).

Apéndice 3: More encounters
Capítulo 18: The Champion
The champion is very easy. He only has a reach of 1 and can only move 2 regular tiles. It can not move and attack in the same turn. De este modo, you can just kite him around with the Disengage command until Stunning Blow comes off cooldown.
I am too lazy to describe the process of kiting him though.

=> Walks towards you.

=> Walks towards you.
Doblar 3: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño)

=> Muerto.
Capítulo 18: Water Drake
The Water Drake has a reach of 2. It can move up to 3 azulejos. Sin embargo, it can also never move and attack in the same turn. De este modo, it is actually very easy to kite.
Además, it has a rather low offence. En 19 defensa, it can only hit with criticals (12 on 2d6). The criticals hit for 9 daño.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment.
=> Walks towards you.
Doblar 2: Cleansing Flame (12 daño). Walk backwards if it is only 2 mosaicos.
=> Walks towards you.
Doblar 3: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño)
=> It is stunned at 15/40.

Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (6 daño). Ataque (al menos 7 daño).
=> Aturdido.
Doblar 3: Ataque (al menos 7 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Cleansing Flame (12 daño).
=> It is dead.
Capítulo 20: Two young Rukhs
The Rukhs are very fast. They can move up to 4 regular tiles. Sin embargo, their reach is only 1 and they can only move 1 regular tile and attack in the same turn. Further their damage is rather low.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment. Termina tu turno.
=> Both will rush towards you.
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño).
=> One is stunned the other might crit you for 3 daño.
Doblar 3: Cleansing Flame (12 daño), Defender.
=> One is dead the other might crit you for 3 daño.

Capítulo 21: Bull
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment.
=> Bull rushes towards you.
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño).
=> It is stunned.
Doblar 3: Cleansing Flame (12 daño).
=> It is dead.
Capítulo 21: Dragón
The dragon has a reach of 3 azulejos. It can’t move and attack on the same turn. Esto significa, if you are further than 3 mosaicos, the dragon will never hit you (except with «flame-breath»). De este modo, as a ranged character, you can somewhat easily ensure that you won’t get hit.
Información sobre «flame-breath»
The dragon will use «flame-breath» directly before your character’s 2nd, 6th, 10th, etc.. vueltas.
It has infinite range and will never miss. Más, it will always do 4 damage directly and cause burning for 3 rondas. The burning damage cannot be avoided either. Sin embargo, these two sources of damage will never overlap, so you will take at most 4 damage in a single turn. Or explicitly:
- Before 2nd turn: 4 daño + debuff application.
- Before 3rd, 4th, 5th turn: 2 damage from the debuff.
- Before 6th turn: 4 daño + debuff application.
- …
If you stun the dragon during your 5th turn, causing it to skip its 6th turn, it will not use the «flame-breath» until you have ended your 9th turn. De este modo, you will also avoid the damage from the debuff.
General guideline
The dragons critical attacks hit for 6 daño. De este modo, there is no way to die, if you end your turn at 11+ aguante. On most turns (No «flame-breath» vueltas), incluso 9+ stamina is enough to ensure survival.
Easy way to beat it (you only need 2 Potions of Healing):
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment, move towards the dragon.
=> Dragon will move 2 tiles towards you and is now at a distance of 3 azulejos.
=> Dragon will use «flame-breath».
=> Resultado (worst case): Dragón – 40/40, Tú – 14/18 (+burning)
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (6 daño), Ataque (al menos 7 daño).
=> Dragon is stunned.
=> You will burn for 2 daño.
=> Resultado (worst case): Dragón – 27/40, Tú – 12/18 (+burning)
Doblar 3: Ataque (al menos 7 daño), Potion of Healing.
=> Dragon will crit you for 6.
=> You burn for 2 daño.
=> Resultado (worst case): Dragón – 20/40, Tú – 9/18 (+burning)
Doblar 4: Cleansing Flame (12 daño), Defender
=> Dragon will crit you for 6.
=> You burn for 2 daño.
=> Resultado (worst case): Dragón – 8/40, Tú – 1/18 (burning is gone)
Doblar 5: Ataque (al menos 6 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Ataque (al menos 6 daño)
=> Muerto.
(Nota: If you feel insecure, just use Potions of Healing every round. There is no reason to save shards really.)
Capítulo 23: Toad Demon
The Toad Demon has a «poison-spit» that will always hit you. It will not directly do damage, but leave a debuff on you that first does 3 daño, entonces 2 y luego 1. Then the demon will reapply it.
Doblar 1: Walk towards it.
=> Walks towards you.
=> Poison spit. You will not take damage yet.
Doblar 2: Golpe impresionante (5 daño), Ataque (al menos 6 daño).
=> Aturdido.
=> You will take 3 damage from the poison.
Doblar 3: Cleansing Flame (11 daño), Adrenaline Burst, Ataque (al menos 6 daño).
=> Muerto.
Capítulo 25: Avar Hordeth
This fight features Avar Hordeth, two Brigands and a Sea Dog. It is very complicated to describe all possible outcomes, due to the high amount of enemies. I will try my best.
Doblar 1: Tactical Assessment. Move closer to Avar Hordeth.
=> Hordeth and the Brigands will move closer to you.
=> The Sea Dog might crit you for 4 daño.
Doblar 2: Stunning Blow Avar (6 daño) and attack him for at least 7, unless you can reach another target. This is the worst case. Otherwise kill the other target and kill Avar using Cleansing Flame during the next turn.
=> Avar is stunned. One target is dead or Avar is very low.
=> The Sea Dog might crit you for 4 daño.
Doblar 3: Attack Avar to kill him.
=> Both Brigands might crit you for 2 cada. The Sea Dog might crit you for 4.
Doblar 4: Cleansing Flame and kill the Sea Dog.
=> The remaining Brigands might crit you for 2 cada.
Doblar 5: Attack the Brigand, Descarga de adrenalina, Attack the other Brigand.
=> All dead.
(Note that this fight will never play out like that crits are increadibly rare and getting 7 in a single battle is pretty much impossible.)
