The Hold

This is where you will get-go later on Character Cosmos (Maybe non for undead or Fane, Unsure yet). Y'all'll be collared which prevents Source Magic before your character even wakes up. But this is simply the beginning.

I will not be including the personal quests of the Origin Characters in these sections but volition make annotation of specific places where if you lot have an Origin Character on your team, you might need to be enlightened of certain things.

Regardless, you should outset talking to the Magisters on the boat. Except for Payde, exercise not talk to him yet. You can boodle the areas y'all can go to including barrels and such to trade for things you do want. Like starting armor, or weapons, or healing items. Nonetheless, unlike the Early Admission, NPCs do Not retain everything you trade to them. So continue the important stuff in your own inventory, such as your backpack, resurrection scrolls, healing items, and possibly most chiefly at least one Bedroll.

Once y'all are done with that, decide if you want to impale the magisters or not. If yous do want to kill them, you lot tin be sneaky virtually it and close the doors allowing you to choice off Waters and Siwan without the others noticing, then maybe have on Cadoc and Marel at once if y'all are feeling brave, earlier trying to take on the larger grouping in the chief Property area.

You could additionally open the door next to Payde by talking to him, and once all the Magisters are aggroed run in and bring Windigo into the fight. She will immediately kill all the magisters except for Siwan. Regardless of how you handle that situation, you tin go on onwards to the adjacent floor past witnessing Windigo go crazy.

On the next flooring, there are a number of chests, magisters, and even barrels and crates to loot. But don't forget to suspension into the locked room. You should bargain with the Source hand earlier that if you intend to kill those magisters, but it's entirely possible to persuade them besides preventing whatever combat from occurring. Though you could only kill them after even with that existence done.

At that place will be a Magister with a note and key in their inventory behind a minor wall of fire. Get that key and open the door with a skull painted on it to witness some tentacles breaking into the transport and releasing some deathfog. Practice not enter the deathfog if your character is living. Undead are unphased by it.

You lot should proccede to the Deck at present where you'll exist attacked by a couple voidlings. Dispatch them, before deciding if you want to attempt getting the EXP from the helm and Magister Knight at the helm of the ship. If you act quick, or summon your incarnate near the oil barrel, yous can intiate combat before the tentacle can ignite the oil and kill them both.

Go interact with the lifeboat afterwards, and hold to go rescue the others. Utilise the ladder to return to the starting time part of the ship, and dispatch the Voidlings that appear here. With them dead, should Magister Siwan yet live you'll accept a chance to go endeavor to help her if you so desire or go on out to go for the life boat. Either way, you will end up at The Starting Beach afterwards.

End of The Agree

Currently, the most corporeality of experience yous can go out The Agree with is iii,100 giving yous a stiff start at level two, and ane,100 EXP towards level 3. Gold and items are highly variable, but if you are lucky yous can go out the ship with a total fix of level ane bones gear. Weapons included.

You never know when a NPC has something of value, and if you were hoarding things from the gunkhole, this is a good chance to offload the useless stuff for something that might come in handy.

You should quickly spot a couple of voidlings forth the beach, impale them. Once they are expressionless, you can go talk to The Reddish Prince if you desire, or completely ignore him if y'all'd rather not (Or someone in your party is playing him).
