Well i opened the bridge after i finished torgal. I killed a mage Yuan-Ti on the 2nd floor not sure if it was the "Greater Yuan-Ti". I dont remember if i got a flail from him or not, and where i got the other 2 from . Well i guess its on the whisper spider, and since i dont have a save prior to the torgal fight, I'll have to find a way to clua that whisper spider or the flail head. Any suggestions?

I strongly recommend keeping lots of saves while playing the game (one before every major battle at minimum). I have literally hundreds of Mb of IA save files archived on my computer. Admittedly many of these are testing-related but even when I am playing I keep loads of save files.

You aren't going to like this but I'd suggest playing on without the completed FOA. I wouldn't start messing around with the Console. The Flail of Ages isn't necessary for any battle; any points your characters spent on Flails/Morning Star are not wasted because there are other powerful weapons of this type.

I want the FoA badly. But it seems i havent killed the Greater Yuan-Ti. I just killed the Mage Yuan-Ti on lvl 2. Was he supposed to be located at the bridge? Now my final question is will he drop the cold head if I CLUA him and will it succesfully forge the FoA? Any help is appreaciated

No! There are three layers of anti-cheat protections here:

- If you CLUA him, he won't drop the flail head.
- If you CLUA the flail head, you can't use it to forge the flail.
- If you CLUA the flail (itself), you can't keep it as it will disappear from your inventory.

In general, don't even think of cheating when you are playing IA. If you cheat you may even face bugs and you will be on your own. I do not offer technical support to players who cheat. Sorry.

Either return to a saved game (even if an old one) and do the entire quest afresh or continue the game without the flail. As Raven mentioned, you don't need it to play the game.

Well you can consider it a bug or a glitch. Don't get me wrong, i want the Yuan-Ti and Spider encounter to happen, the problem is it doesnt happen after Torgal is dead. I'm sure I'm not the only one who brought the bridge down after Torgal is dead. Which is what i consider normal, to do the "inside" of the keep first. So since I don't have the time to do research on IE scripting, i kindly ask u for the necessary script editing in a PM, so i can experience the battle with the Greater Yuan-Ti and Whisper Spider at the bridge, so i can finish my FoA.

Even in the vanilla game, the Greater Yuan-Ti doesn't appear if you open the bridge after killing TorGal. It's not a bug.

SPOILER!

This is true, but just note that it's a vanilla game bug which I'm fixing. The bug is not created by IA or related to it.

In the vanilla game, there are two conditions under which Nalia pays you 650 gp (rather than 10650). In one of these two conditions there is really no justification for Nalia to punish you with a small reward.

Yes, didn't mean to imply otherwise.


What is the last one?

About the fight with the Githyanki Supreme Leader:

SPOILER!


Spoilered just in case

That's when Nalia asks you to stay a bit longer (to either offer the stronghold or to ask you to take her with yourself) but you even refuse to stand and listen. I didn't change this one. She will give you 650 gp in this case.

The other one (which I changed) is when you treat her kindly, but just didn't have her in your party while clearing the keep.

SPOILER!

I'm in that maze in the beholder lair in the underdark
I have done everything(even drawn a map )

But now i have the maze key but in the only room where i did not go through every door it says that i need a wardstone to go to the lower levels?
What did I do wrong?
I assure you that i did not cheat anything into my inventory

Ascension is strictly incompatible with IA. See the updated readme file in the forum.

All of the battles in your game so far have been much easier than the same battles in other players' games, because Ascension breaks IA's scripts. I wonder how you managed to install IA with no error messages at all.

Uninstall Ascension and return to a saved game before entering the maze and see if it can help. You have some other dubious tweakpacks as well, but I don't think that those few components you have installed could have made this particular problem in your game (though it is strongly recommended not to install any tweakpack with IA. IA has all of the required tweaks for its own optimization in itself. You can use the compatible components of Weimer's Ease-of-Use, but not any other tweakpack).

Uninstalled everything dubious and tried again...
it still doesn't work. I have the key. But I still don't get to the lower levels.

By the way could there be a problem if one Ctrl-Y's those spawning monsters?
That might have been the problem this time...

Looking at the map I made, there should be another door that requires the key to go through it. The wardstone should be in there.

SPOILER!

There are two different exits (in two different areas in the maze), one of which requires a Wardstone, the other one requires a key. If you have the key (but not the wardstone), you can only pass the first exit. The key is not supposed to let you go to 'lower levels'; you need to find the wardstone. The key opens a different exit in another area inside the maze.

Yes, Ctrl-Ying enemies will create all sorts of bugs.

Please use Spoiler tags for a question including IA quest details. Just because v5 has been out for some time does not mean everyone will have reached that stage in the game.

EDIT: I sent you a PM with the answer to your question.

Thanks for the reminder, Raven!

I, too, had neglected the fact that Vardaman's question was too spoilerish. Just edited both his and my posts (again) and fixed the issue.
