IndiraLightfoot Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 It can be a challenging game at times... The prison... Hahahahaaahahaha! It was nasty, really nasty. It took four attempts, but I learnt a lot about WL2 tactics along the way (and also that I was most likely under-geared). *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" ***
Gorgon Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I can't get into the prison. Exhausted all options except attacking the turrets head on. I'd have to wait for more companion cannon fodder before I try, they don't last long as they don't usually get prioritized for healing. Playing on ranger difficulty you are kinda forced to chose who to spend medpacks on. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Raithe Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Technically, the game storywise encourages you not to deal with those turrets and that part of the prison until after the visit to the Temple of Titan. You can find a "tread" in Darmonta that fixes the robot by the prison wall, that will go up to the turrets and destroy them. Or, you can potentially load up on the various rocket launchers from TNT back at the Ranger Citadel if you have enough scrap before hand. Of course, the time I did that it beta, it broke the game later because I'd killed all the Rad Scorpions early in the game, but it wouldn't let me continue the main storyline until I went back to the prison because the dead people were yelling on the Radio.... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Gorgon Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 The regular robot treads don't work, it has to be component numer such and such, supposedly it drops random. Fist chance at the radio tower. I must have sold it. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
IndiraLightfoot Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Huge patch just arrived! Amongst dozens of fixes: "- Ag Center: Ag Center Serum cures “acute” version of Pod Infection." Nice, since this forced me to hack the game to keep going (or else do a pretty big reload).

Raithe Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Well I've found it in several run throughs in the beta, and once in the current version at the Airfield, when you face Tinker. It's not dropped by the robots you destroy, but an actual specific tread in one of the crates in the Airfield hangar. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Gorgon Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Do you mean abandoned railroad ?. Don't think I have the abandoned airfield location, maybe I botched a dialouge that would have gotten me there. I finished the Titan canyon and i'm doing Damota and silo 7 or whatever it was called now. It annoyed me that I had unfinised business at the prison so I thought I would try and get in. Anyway if it drops random and I've already sold it then I'm probably screwed anyway. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Marceror Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Regarding treads: It's a particular tread. If you don't find it at the radio tower or abandoned railway (random drops in both), then you should most certainly find it in Damonta.

Gromnir Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 so, from the patch notes we see that alarm disarm were addressed, but we see no mention o' the other broken skills such as leadership and animal whisperer. it appears we wait for patch #2. is quite annoying to spend points in a skill or ability (luck is broken too) only to find that you ain't getting what were being sold. the thing is, as we don't know how inxile will fix such skills and abilities, am thinking it makes sense for us to wait till they address issues, or at least respond regarding how they plan on fixing. gotta give obsidian, and josh in particular, credit for his feedback efforts. inxile reticence is, by comparison, annoying. am much preferring the obsidian and biowarian approach to feedback and relative transparency.

How can I get the spike without turning the Topekans hostile? Is there a different way to reach peace between them?

How can I get the spike without turning the Topekans hostile? Is there a different way to reach peace between them? Read at your own risk: You don't need to get the brake shoe or the spike for a peaceful resolution, and in fact, stealing either of these prized items is like to just complicate things. You need to work this out through dialogue, and I believe it requires a smart ass lvl 6 (it did for me, but there might be other ways). At any rate, take care of as many problems as you can around the RNC, including the Rail Thieves, saving Ralphy, saving the guy who stepped on the landmine, etc. Go and talk to Casey James and bring the topic toward making peace. You will be sent back and forth a couple of times between him and Kekkahbah to deliver messages, but during one of the discussions with Casey you can convince him that the golden spike should be used to repair the tracks... and that requires a Smart Ass 6. You need to get him to agree to this in order to secure peace. Kekkahbah will like the idea if you share it with him. Continue to follow the quest through, including sharing that Casey must cut off his own arm, which he will agree to do. Follow it through and all will end well.

Raithe Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Can anyone give me some help with the Rail Nomads? When you talk to Casey, rather then get the brake shoe off him, discuss peace. There should be conversation options that open up, especially if you managed to save his daughter from being blown up by one of his bombs. - If you notice, after you save Ralphy, she's stood near a playground, there's a bike or something you can examine which has an IED you can disarm - But, if you get the conversation on a peace treaty going, you can suggest a "both" option, where rather then one side keeping the Golden Spike, they use it to seal the peace treaty. Then you end up running back and forth a couple of times to make sure everyone agrees. The Topekan's demand Casey loses an arm, to which he'll agree, and then they drive the Golden Spike into the railway tracks and peace is had. Of course, I had the peace treaty all signed, everyone was happy, the Rangers back at the Citadel applauded me for it... but when the end epilogue came up, I got told that since I'd helped Casey annihilate the Topekans all sorts of bad crap had happened. So I have no idea where that came from. Edit: Heh, and beaten while I typed.. Edited September 27, 2014 by Raithe 1 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
