Nebari (0 posts) May-20-04, 09:16 PM (Pacific) "Tantris" I had recruited Tantris but he would not go to Baygin. He said he would be waiting for me where I left him (or so I thought). Where does he go when you release him from the party? He was not at the mines or the couple of places I looked for him in Martens Bluff. Searching the archives here did not help either.

Llevram (5413 posts) May-20-04, 10:34 PM (Pacific) 1. "Recruited characters return home" ... for the most part. They are usually right where you originally recruited them, or very nearby. Two exceptions: 1) RFS-81 ... stays whereever you drop him. 2) Vi ... goes back to He'Li's bar (unless you get the glitch where she winds up in Phoonzang's statue). So, in your case, go back to where you recruited him originally ... he should be right there or nearby. Tools for Wizardry(r) 7   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

rbrown (2 posts) May-21-04, 11:40 AM (Pacific) 2. "RE: Tantris" Tantris is special. He returns to Martens Bluff, between the squisher and the door to Martens Idol. The last time I found him there, I tried to kill him off by letting him fight 8 dung beetles without help from us. He killed all 8 with hardly any damage to himself. We then recruited him and took him to see the Sorceress Queen. I released him in her doorway then started the fight. He ran down to meet them and killed 2 cultists and 3/4 of a Death Lord before a Death Cloud caught him. If you try this trick, remember that RPC's teleport back "home" the instant you are out of line-of-sight with them. So you must stand in the doorway and take a pounding if you want to see how good Tantris is on his own.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Scary (16 posts) May-21-04, 12:19 PM (Pacific) 3. "Fun with R-RPCs" (That's Released Recruitable Player Characters) Rbrown's post raises an interesting tactic that we have probably all tried employing to some extent - like luring Gregor over to Burz to get Burz to squish the bug. I've heard that some NPCs and RPCs will run to the fight, and others (Anna's name comes to mind) will run from the fight. Has anyone investigated which NPCs/RPCs are brawlers and which are cowards?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Llevram (5413 posts) May-21-04, 08:56 PM (Pacific) 4. "Fun with RPC vs PC" Also, another reason to un-recruit your RPC for fights, is they tend to be much more hearty (i.e. they have more hit points when non-recruited ... this helps them survive on their own).

Has anyone investigated which NPCs/RPCs are brawlers and which are cowards?" In my (limited) experience -- Cowards: Anna, Antone, Bela Brawlers: He'li, Braffit, Ferro, Myles, Lorrac, Sparkle, Tantris, Pvt. Panrack There are lots more out there. Can anybody add anything? smb   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Nebari (0 posts) May-22-04, 08:51 AM (Pacific) 6. "RE: Tantris" Well I had already looked for him at the mine tunnels and by the elevator by the Rapax lure without luck. I have now looked all over Marten's Bluff without finding him. I guess there is a Tantris bug in addition to the Vi bug. Thanks.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

hbk21sfp (0 posts) May-24-04, 11:18 AM (Pacific) 7. "RE: Tantris" From my experience and what I have read, there is a bug similar to that of Vi where Tantris will disappear and cannot be found. I have never found Tantris after recruiting him and releasing him. I have even experienced where I talk with him, don't recruit him, and then go back to talk with him and he is gone. Myles is another RPC that disappears.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

FC (Guest) (8 posts) May-25-04, 10:41 AM (Pacific) 8. "RE: Tantris" I have had myles get involved in a fight a block or so away from where he usally hangs out, and thats where I found him when I returned; also sometimes he will get caught up with the guard patrols walking the city.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

rbrown (2 posts) May-25-04, 11:13 AM (Pacific) 9. "Myles" I have one savegame where he is marching between the broken wall and HeLi's western wall, but I have never seen him join the guards. I also have a savegame where Burz walked (I followed him) from his usual place to the "first big room after you come up from the beach". I also have a savegame with Ferro in the throne room.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
