"How to continue after killing Dark Savant?"
I read the post regarding how to continue playing Wiz 8 after killing the Dark Savant.
My question is how is this accomplished?
Everytime I kill the Dark Savant the end game sequence runs.
Does it matter which ending you chose?
Where do you kill the Dark Savant?
Who are the RPCs in your party?
Do you need to kill Bela?
What is considered outside the Cosmic Circle?

Thanks
HBK21GOD

Has anyone else been able to continue after killing the Dark Savant?

1. "RE: How to continue after killing Dark Savant?"
I haven't tried it, but if you get bela killed in the final battle, then kill the DS, I think you can continue the game. Maybe I'll try it. I have a saved game just before the final battle.

It is more than killing Bela and then the DS. I just did that and the endgame sequence ran.

The endgames are saved. What is the purpose for this? Is there anything you can do with the files?

Thanks

3. ""outside the circle""
I think you have to be outside the circle, behind the DS (from the point of reference where you begin the battle, through the portal/archway behind him). I have yet to do it, but will try it with my current party, when they get there.

4. "RE: "outside the circle""
I have saved a game where I have killed Bela and escaped to Asc. Peak.

I have tried it several times, always unsuccessfully. Twice both DS and I are outside the circle. Once on the ramp to the lower level and once in the balcony above the lower level (Altheides Plaza??).

I have played all of the regular endings starting from scratch in W8. My next try will be imports from W7.

Thanks everyone for all of the help in this forum.

6. "RE: How to continue after killing Dark Savant?"
I noticed after I killed the dark savant, that he had dropped his glove, it was on the ground and I presume it could be picked up. But the endgame sequence ran and I haven't tried it again.

Can you pick up the DS's glove? What are the stats on it?

9. "Kill him outside the circle"
That is what was said, further details seem unavailable. I am going to test next time I get there (in Rapax Castle now).

10. "So far I am unsuccessful ..."
... in getting the game to continue after killing the DS. I have found that you can move (once he dies and combat ends) ... even to the point I was able to back up (you cant turn your viewpoint) all the way to the portal back to AP. I teleported there, but the end game sequence continued to run.

I will probably give it another try or two ...

11. "I did it !!"
Here's how.. I Chose to "Tear out the Page", got close to the savant to swing some swords at him, then I turned on Bela firing arrows untill my samurai killed him with a critical strike. Then, WITHOUT EVEN LEAVING the proximity of the savant and the tome, I killed the savant, consequently his minions and Phoonzang ( who had also became hostile with Bela) died. The End sequence didn't run! But things got weird I couldn't do anything with the mouse, couldn't quickSave, cast spells, go to the options menu, all I could do was walk with the keyboard cursor.. I thought: great, I killed the savant and managed to continue the game, now I can't even pick up his lousy cobaltine powerGlove...., So I went down to Ascencion peak to see if I could start a fight with the first monster that would appear... and when the fight started... voilá! everything was back to normal! Killed the monsters, then went back to the C.C. to get the glove, which is a very cool weapon

12. "Me too ...."
It must have to do with killing Bela, that must be the key (and finding another battle, to "unlock" the limbo mode you are left in ... you can move with the keyboard, but that is it).

So we did it, but now what ...? I have thought of recycling some or all of my characters and go and do the T'rang quests ...

13. "Must have to do with killing Phoonzang"
When I was trying to continue my game after killing the dark savant the only scenario I did not try was killing Phoonzang.
I will have to try that and see if I can continue and collect the Cobaltine PowerGlove.
Some spoils of war are so nice!

Thanks,
HBK21GOD

14. "I think it has to with killing Bela"
I have not retried it with the write in the book ending, but choose tear the page and attack and kill Bela, then you can continue ... that is what worked for me (and the other that posted that solution)

16. "RE: Guess who comes back to life..."
Someone suggested that you can go to Anika and recurit VI again and bring her to AP to meet with the other VI who stop responding to you. You can even dismiss your VI and see twin Vi there.

Seems quite funny.
