Endless Paths - Level 12

Endless Paths, Level 12

Vithrack Sentries

I start off at #1 on the map of the 12th level. There will be a few Vithrack Sentries who attack me at #2. Alliria, Kana and Devil of Caroc handle the ones at the forefront. Sagani and Grieving Mother shoot down the more distant ones.

Crystal Spiders

And then I slaughter numerous Crystal Eaters around #3.

Tcharek

Now I speak to the Vithrack at #6 named Tcharek. He wants Alliria to retrieve for him several items made of Adra from the level below. This conversation triggers The Master's Tools quest.

Krivi

Now I speak to Krivi at #8. He is wondering where his mate, Issyt, has gone off to. He can become a merchant with items for sale, but not until the aforementioned quest has been completed.

Mad Vithrack

I continue south and slaughter a few more Crystal Spiders. There will also be a narrow passageway south. I have Devil of Caroc disarm a trap that's halfway through it, and then lay a Fire Storm trap of her own.

There will be several more Crystal Eaters controlled by a Mad Vithrack at #9. Devil of Caroc leads them across the trap in the hallway, and the party has little trouble taking them out. The Mad Vithrack leaves behind the Polished Pommel Stone, which is the last piece I need to complete The Bladeless of the Endless Paths task. I inform Krivi of Issyt's fate (i.e. she was the Mad Vithrack), and he rewards me with a Ta Ondra Tara and a Velune.

Endless Paths, Level 11

I go back up at the stairs at #1. After that, I take the stairs at #2 on the map of the 11th level to return to the courtyard of Caed Nua.

*Evil* Zakara likewise informs Krivi of the Mad Vithrack's fate, for no other reason than to collect the reward.

*Evil* Constellated Cloak

The evil party has likewise left Endless Paths, and will eventually do the same thing as the good party (see below). But first they return to the rewards chest at #3 in the Great Hall. Waiting inside will be the Constellated Cloak, which is a reward for the companion adventure called They Who Woke the Stars. I have no use for it though.

First Fires

The Blade of the Endless Paths

I travel from Caed Nua to the First Fires District. The entrance to Crucible Keep is at #11 on the map of First Fires.

Crucible Keep

Now I speak to Dunstan at #16 on the map of Crucible Keep. I give him all blade pieces that I've found in the Endless Paths, and he puts them together in the Blade of the Endless Paths. That completes The Bladeless of the Endless Paths task.

12th Level Cave

I return to Caed Nua, and rest up with the +3 Intellect bonus until I'm just a few hours away from the 11th day of the month. After that, I make my way back down to the 12th level.

A hidden niche at #11 will have an item from the "12th Vithrack - Lower Right Corner Hidden" section of the Random Drop List. It is by now the 11th day of the month, so I get a pair of Gauntlets of Swift Action. Sagani wears them for the rest of the game, with the obvious benefit that it will increase her rate of fire with her bow.

*Evil* 12th Level Cave

*Evil* Aloth gets the first Gauntlets of Swift Action in the evil party. The obvious benefit is that it helps him cast his spells faster, especially when he needs to protect himself with multiple buffs in a flash. It also helps him attack faster with either his scepter or his Kalakoth's Minor Blights.

Kestorik

A group of Vithracks led by Kestorik will be at #12. He'll be spoiling for a fight. However, Alliria explicitly states that she's acting on Tcharek's authority to convince him to let her pass without incident. A Resolve check of 18 would have worked as well.

*Evil* Kestorik

The evil party simply prefers to pick a fight with Kestorik and his minions (i.e. other Vithracks and some Crystal Eaters), wipe them out, and then head down to the 13th level.

The stairs to the 13th level is at #13.
