-
- 1) How do I help the dire ghost in the third world?
-
- You need to assemble the magic staff made from the gem rod, black pearl,
- and spider egg at the magician in the second world. She will explain it's
- usage. Once you have it, you use it on the fountain (or the mud, I
- haven't figured it out) to remove the guardians grasp from the world.
-
- 2) Am I missing something!?! Where is the rod for the magic staff?
-
- The spider egg is in the sewers, it shouldn't be too hard to find (in an
- alcove on either the 4th or 5th level)...
-
- The pearl is given to you...
-
- The rod is found in the 4th world lying in a room filled with odd stuff.
-
- 3) Where are the black stones!?!
-
- First world... it's at the top of the tower...
- Second world... it's in a pit filled with Headlesses past a magical trap...
- Third world... It's lying on a plateau past a river in the ice world. If
- you don't have the patience to go around when you first see it (I didn't)
- cast water walk and jump to jump up to it.
- Fourth world... It's in the center of the lava pit where they dispose of
- things...
- Fifth world... It's somewhere past the final test (there are eight) (in one of
- the rooms, possible a secret door, I forget...)
- Sixth world... The top arena duelist has it.
- Seventh... working on it
- Eighth... working on that one too...
-
- 4) I have the stone but am stuck as far as the puzzle for a world is
- concerned. Can I just take the stone and run?
-
- No such luck. You need to locate the item or place that the Guardian has
- power or drains power from a world using the magical staff/sceptre that
- you assemble. At this point, it seems the stones only keep the passage open
- for you so you don't have to stand there waiting for the portal to open. (and
- makes the final solution possible).
-
- 5) How do I REALLY destroy the black rock cage?
-
- It seems that you need to remove the sources of power supporting it (ie:
- alternate worlds)
-
- 6) Where do the cats from the second world come from?
-
- I don't know, I'm not sure yet!?!
- I don't know about the banner yet either!?!
-
- 7) What "secret spells" are there?
-
- Turn Undead AKC
- Flame Reduction IAF
- Time Trap ITJ
- Locate BWE
-
- Others that I haven't found yet...
-
- 8) Where are there Flam, Hur, Vas, and Tym stones?
-
- The mages tower (5th world) has a few stones at the end. Flam, and Vas...
- and Hur and Tym... and... (You get the idea).
-
- 9) Where are those stupid stones!?! I finished the final exam for the
- mages tower and I still can't find them...
-
- You need to enter the void and at some point, you can walk straight into
- the "darkness" the are your "walls". Save your game alot and run straight
- into "darkness" and make sure you have some franzium! There are force
- fields. The Flam is easy to find, it's in a chest. There is another wall
- to walk through in the secret room and past the force field in the second
- passageway is a empty room. Try search the ground for some nice magic
- items as well as the Vas stone.
-
- 10) Did I miss anything blowing out those candles in the second world?
-
- Try it once if you think you're missing something... just save first...
-
- 11) The mages puzzles are driving me crazy, how do I get through them?
-
- Most of them a straightforward. Be sure to read any inscriptions on the
- walls. For the test where you jump from block to block, try not to touch
- any arrows, if you don't touch them, the block it points at doesn't vanish.
-
- 12) How do I get the gem to let me into a new world!?! I'm tired of the
- ones I'm on...
-
- I think there is a time delay on them or something. Haven't figured it
- out yet myself, but it lets me into the all... eventually.
-
- 13) What is the best way to kill people in the arenas in world 6?
-
- There is no good arena of the fire/water/earth/air arenas. Fire has
- annoying fireballs that hit you (and your enemy). Water has ice and
- water. Earth is nice (basically a normal arena) and air has little
- floater things like on world 4 that send you flying upwards.
- The guy with the blackrock stone is easiest killed with a missile
- protection spell and a good weapon or a shockwave spell and frost wand
- (they don't miss!). Also, if you take the second approach, you can
- alternate back and fourth and blow away his comrades too (I killed all of
- his friends and him this way :). )
-
-
- Oh well, enough spoilers for now... (and by the way, I don't play UW2 all
- the time, only about 4 hours a day (still alot) )
