    [​IMG] For one, Be careful of dragging up old posts. Some people are very unforgiving. Secondly, if you leaf thru all of the pages on this forum, you'll find most of your questions will be answered. Just select ALL POSTS. It may take a little time though. Lastly, if you are really stumped as far as which items are in which quests, you can go to:

    dspace.dial.pipex.com/m.james/

    (I hope this isn't a violation of the rules)
    This site has the basic maps for all of the areas. It doesn't include TOTSC expansion. be careful there are quite a few spoilers in it. I wouldn't want anyone to feel like the game has been ruined by looking at this site.

    This post was only 2 weeks old so don't worry :)

    They guys you mention are both involved in the quest. The Ancient Armor of the Skeleton in Firewine Ruins can be retrieved to two undead-creatures:

    1. The knights in Firewine Ruins (1500 XP)
    2. The Ghost of Ulcaster (iirc 1000 XP and the sword)

    [​IMG] Damn.. Never knew you could give the armor to Ulcaster... Glad I didn't miss out on much though... And contrary to Ragusa, I hated this area. the corridors were so damn narrow and those damn kobolds... I got so pissed that I loaded khalid with potions of fire recistance and the like and sent him through the whole thing

    Ther eis no reason. Xealifer just needed a reason to spam and his posts was totally nonsense.

    This time I didn't visit Ulcaster, I think it's one of the most boring places in the game in my opininion.

    [​IMG] With regards to issues above, what made Ulcaster charming, for me, was exactly the fact that I couldn't find that elusive passage near the spider room! I've played the game through several times and only recently found it. The fact that there was this outstanding quest, from an apparently important figure kept me coming back... even when I didn't have the exp necessary to deal with the Kobold Commandos on the other mesa. I was -ecstatic- when I found my way to the other areas... even though I'd felt all my efforts thwarted repeatedly in the past.

    I also noticed that that entrance is very hard to find.
