Ain't it JUST! The final battle with Lucretia is another good one!

I was stuck at home tonight (another several inches of rain - rivers are out of their banks again) and couldn't help myself. I just spent about 4 hours in the game! I'm having more fun this time than I ever have because I'm making maximum use of my disciplines. Fire Storm Rocks!

Way to go Draclvr !!

I still have to deal with the Gargoyle area in Haus de Heux, Serena was using Fire on her own, hope she continues to be that good in the Castle. I already forced Eric to relinquish the Exquisite double headed axe to Wilhelm. I sure hope it goes to London with Cris in his vault. I only remember keeping the Ainkurn sword on my first play.

Hi hawkavonpuka

I ended up with rather little of my inventory when I surfaced in London

But I did have my lovely sword

Cheers.

Yeah, when you get to London, you have pretty much nothing any more! I loved that double headed axe too...

One of the w/t's says if it is in Christoph's vault, it should go with you. I sure don't remember that being the case. I vaguely remember seeing some items scattered about in the place I woke up in. I will find out soon won't I.

Although I had several things in my vault, it was empty when I got to London and New York. I would love to have that axe make it with me!

I kept the Ainkurn Sword on me and put the exquisite two headed war axe in my vault, among many other things. When I got up in the Leopold, I found the sword, axe, two exquisite greatswords, the finger, femur, beserker fang. Of course no gold bricks, blood, jewels, scrolls and my $15,000+ in gold cash. Grrrh!! So now I am broke, in rags, but getting through the Leopold. Of course I will have to come back for all the spoils, I have no room for them. I am going to save the axe for my new coterie that I know I will be getting soon.

Well, crud! I wonder what happened to all my stuff! I think I had to go back twice to get all my goodies in Leopold...

Draclvr, only the weapons were there and they were scattered about the room where the coffin was. I haven't even been to my haven yet, just got the clothes and visited the van. Now I have to go and find all that stuff, trying to think if it would be safe to drop my weapons while I do so. I used Lure of the Flames throughout Leopold, I don't think I had it on my last play. It uses lots of blood, but is very effective, I suppose you could go back to the Leopold and look, if you aren't already in New York.

Hi

I wonder why the different experiences with "keeping" stuff going into the modern day era ??
I found I ended up with very little of what had been in my previous inventory and vault - and searching everywhere didn't net me much more !!

However, I am gradually acquiring things

[Haven't had chance to play for a while but hoping to get back to it soon ]

Cheers.

I'm wondering if I didn't forget to put actual weapons in my vault. I just can't remember now. Oh, well, I'm about to head down into Vukodlok's lair. I'm using Prison of Ice to great advantage this time. I've also got Rain of Fire or something like that maxed out, so I hope it helps against Vukodlok! I also found 3 rocket launchers in Orsi's factory. I'm armed to the teeth and ready to go... Unfortunately, I probably won't get to play again until this weekend.

You guys are having so much fun, I just had to join you! I started yesterday & I'm just now doing the Stephendom. I'm trying to take my time & enjoy the story. I listen to all the dialogue - I know most of it by heart!

I've never arrived in London with any of my weapons, or anything else. I have read that if you put them in the vault, they will be there in London, but it's never worked for me. I don't do as good with the modern weapons, but you can still buy good swords & stuff from the guy in the van. It's funny that you can walk the streets of London and New York carrying a big sword, & nobody seems to notice!

Drac - Prison of Ice is the best spell in the game. It even works against Zulo. For some reason, I never got it in my last game, but I was able to kill Zulo with a rocket launcher.

Hi Barb!! In hindsight, I should have left the scrolls etc out of the vault and just stuff it with weapons. All mine were in that first room in the Leopold and are now in my new vault. Since I stashed two exquisite broadswords, I sold one to the van guy. I am starting to get another cash flow going with all the stuff I hauled out of the Leopold. I was beginning to get lost as made my way through so this time I closed each door as I finished checking out the room. I left the Femur Bone, might have been worth something but I don't want to go back there. I am also no good with the rifles, pistols and such, I will probably sell all of them as I know I will need a rocket launcher down the line. I still have the end game save you sent me Barb, just in case. See ya in London.

Oh, goodie! Barb, I thought of you when Erik uttered my favorite line in the game - your signature!

Isn't that a great line? I think my favorite is still the "******-off Christof".

I just finished the Teutonic Knight Base & started the Haus de Hexe. Poor Serena was dead through the whole thing. I didn't have enough blood to awaken her, but it doesn't seem to have bothered her too much now that she's awake.

I'm going to try stashing some of my weapons when I get back to Prague. Of course, I need to keep the best ones for Vhyzerade Castle.

Judy, are you going to try to kill Zulo yourself this time? You should be a well-seasoned vampire by now!

Of course I will give it a try first Barb, but....... I used a Walk the Abyss and put things in my vault after slaying that Vozhd, Serena did that since her flame was at five. I actually made the trek twice, just to see what happened. Most of the Teutonic Base I left Eric and Serena behind, she didn't seem much help. Somewhere in the game she died, I didn't have time to awaken her before the cut scene, however she was up in that, so funny, then of course she was dead again. Now I am in the Setite Temple, I had forgotten all about the many switches. I remember getting stuck somewhere in there last time, had to use a Walk to get out. Hmmn, I better go buy one of those now. I am also diseased from someone in the Leopold, where can a get some vaccine? I had a lot of it in my vault, of course it didn't come along.

I just started the Setite temple, too. Have you tried Montague at the Curio Shoppe for a vaccine? I think I've seen some poison cures in the temple, maybe there will be one for disease, too. Have you tried just casting Blood Healing on your diseased character? There might be some laying around in the Tower of London. Sorry, I can't think of anything else.

I put some nice weapons in the chest in Prague, but they didn't show up in London. It's hard to fight with a lead pipe against machineguns and flamethrowers! I was able to buy an exquisite flamberge from the guy in the van. Pink is going through those Setites like a hot knife through butter!

One nice thing about London is that there's always a good supply of free blood from the prostitutes at the brothel!

The one thing that did come through to London for me was the Ainkurn Sword, so I didn't have any trouble in London.

And woo hoo! I just dispatched Zulo without using godmode! I ended up with only Samuel and Zulo got stuck between the two pews at the back, so I just blasted away. Samuel had to take everyone else's weapons and at the end he ran out of ammo. I was out of money so there was no reason to cast a Walk the Abyss. I was going to give up, but then I thought of Christof's Ainkurn Sword - took one whack and it was all over.

Ah, now I can sleep with the knowledge that Anezka and Christof are together forever!

That was certainly fast Draclvr, you just whizzed through it! I am healed Barb, dumb me being in God Mode, it didn't do any good when poisoned or diseased. Actually God mode doesn't stop blood loss either, so it gets used up, you just don't die.

I wonder why I was so lucky to have those weapons scattered about the room. I gave the exquisite two headed axe to Pink and an exquisite broadsword to Lily, must remember to sell them to get money for rocket launchers, or should I trust in my sword. I really think it needs sharpening by now with all the heads it has lopped off.

My next place to go is the Tower of London, blech spiders, couldn't be worse than the asps though, I need a giant size can of Raid and I will be fine. Hah, I have one thing of Poison Antidote.

Is there a seller in New York? I forget, but the Curio Shop in London doesn't have any potions.

Ooo.. The Tower of London - my favorite place! Creepy!

The New Moon shop in New York sells blood & magic scrolls. There's a weapons shop near Dev/Null's place.

Congrats, Drac. Don't you think it's the best ending of any game? I do. It's worth playing the whole game just to see it!

The Setite Temple is confusing because of all the levers. If you push each lever just one time, all the doors should be open. I sometimes forget which one I've pushed!

I just loved Emelia at The New Moon when she first flirts with Christof!

Yup, love that ending! However, I haven't found one yet that rivals the ending in The Witcher. Awesome...

Finished with London tonight and waiting to see if Mad has set sail for New York yet. Barb, I think the levers in the Setite temple are why I got locked in last play. The one at the end of the bridge with the flames, I could never figure out if I turned it off or on.

Hi hawkavonpuka

Sorry I haven't called in here lately but I have been rather unwell - so no progress with games

Hoping to be able to play again soon ....

Cheers.
