    Rolf also hints about another quest. Any idea on whether that can be received and how?
    Also, how am I supposed to find a volcano anywhere? :)
  2. How the heck are you supposed to get certain achievements?

    There are a couple achievements in the game which puzzle the hell out of me.

    Beloved by fate:

    That would be true, if you would refer to AW's original guidebook, and not the "I"GB which is a pirated copy itself.

    Some further thoughts:

    Vanquisher is awesome, but like previously mentioned, your DV is quite poor. Fighting on defensive or very defensive mostly is a good idea. When killing nasty creatures, go...

    I'd say eternium spears is a good option not mentioned yet. Weapons immune to jellies/rust/etc and deal good damage, also boosting the polearms skill.

    Suit yourself if you insist on berserk tactics. With Vanquisher you get halfway decent DV with defensive / very defensive, and you still deal huge damage. Then just berserker the ones that have good...

    -Deth is rarely needed and it's not before the endgame when you start facing all-of-sudden DR enemies. Also, AMW is available very early. Paralyzation resistance is much more useful especially in the...

    There are two clear winners which are useful every time. The rest depend slightly on the situation.

    Getting True Ascension and Let Fate Decide on one character is pretty much stretching it. Sure, you'll need a ton of gameplay luck anyway, but this would be excessive.

    Yes, let him die. Worst case scenario is that you'll end up having nasty corruptions that you cannot remove, but it's very unlikely that you'll die of corruption in a regular game.
