-Main Quest: -
Where is the Bandit Lair?
-What do I do in the small temple?
-Dear lord, these Trophies are tough!
-Why do I fall through the floor, when trying to reach the leaders?
-Ah! This ambush is killing me!
-Where do I find Marx's Lair?
-I keep getting killed, in the final battle!
-
-Sidequests: -
How do I get into the Lumber Camp?
-Where do I go, in the Lumber Camp?
-What is that wierd, basalt hut south of Birmington, and why won't the runes let me in?
-How do I find Leningrad?

Walkthrough


-Getting Started

-You will start in the small town of Birmington. Enter the city hall, and Mayor Pinochet will tell you to search out a Bandit lair to the southeast. While you're in city hall, talk to Manny and Elizabeth, for a while. This is the one far to the southeast. If you are in an adobe hut, then you are in the right place. From here, enter the temple, on the west side. Oddly enough, it seems like a quaint place. Do not eat the stew, take a nap, or pray to the altar. Try to destroy the altar, and you will discover the 'quaint' little altar is actually a decrepit, evil shrine, ran by a Rakshasa. Kill the Rakshasa, and search for a secret passage at 19,28 and another at 16,26. The portcullis have opened. Follow the passage into an enclosed room, filled with trophies. Look at one, and prepare for an extremely difficult combat. When you are through, run through the door on the eastern wall. Disarm the three traps. The third isn't a trap you have to disarm- but no matter what, a wall will open, revealing a Spectre. Slay it, and then brigands will reveal themselves to you, a few more paces down the hallway. Slay them, and rather than trying to enter the meeting hall, go east into the brigand chambers. If you are so inclined, there is a loot room here. The chest itself will blow up in your face, but a stairway will be revealed in its place. Climb down it, and you'll find some loot. Go back to the first floor. There is a stairway at 35,32. Climb down it, and go through the passage north, and west. There are a few brigands here, slay them. Go through the door on the south wall, and down the passage, west. A mage there will summon a few ogres. Slay them, and search the secret passage at 5,12. Follow that passage, and the walls will slam into you, and dissapear, revealing a few Cave Rats. It's still an easy fight, but make sure one doesn't kill you when you only have 0HP remaining. Pull the lever to the south, and go back upstairs, and back to where the Meeting Hall is. The floor will not fall through. Enter the room, and you will find your first encounter with Marx.

- -Marx and You

- -In this battle, all three of Marx's henchmen will attack you. Marx himself will teleport out. But don't worry about slaying all three of the henchmen- when you slay one, the rest teleport out. This is good, because you will need all of the strength you can muster. Enter the portal, and you will be ambushed. I suggest you flee, unless you summon many creatures, or have decent bruisers. It's a difficult fight. From there, return to Birmington. The first thing you will notice is that Marx has unleashed an Ursag onto the city! Help the guards ward it off. When it is slain, Marx will teleport into Pinochet's library! Run into the city hall, and Marx will set City Hall on fire! You will find yourself lying in the inn. Go to where City Hall used to be, and Pinochet will be quiet and solemn. He will tell you where to find Marx. Go north, and into Marx's lair. Or whatever it is. Investigate the house. In the eastern bedroom, search the dresser. The other two encounters are indicated by white dots. After that, the northernmost door will unlock, revealing a small, underground river, and a boat. Take the boat east, and prepare for the final fight... - -The Finale - -Row the boat onto the small strip of land, and follow it forward. If you have Leningrad, it will ignite in flames, now. This weapon is now extremely powerful! Enter the small opening at the end, and Engels will teleport in. If you slew Lenin, then Putin will join you. If Lenin is still alive, Putin will teleport in, but Lenin will kill him. When both Lenin and Engels are dead, Marx teleports in. If you met his wife and son, he will give you an option to join him or not. If you did not meet either, you must fight Marx. If you join Marx, then Pinochet teleports in. He also knows that you are allied to Marx. Marx and you (and possibly Putin, if he is still alive) will then fight Pinochet. After Pinochet is dead, Marx will reunite with his son, and give you 500 gold, as well as a protection amulet. If you did not join Marx, Pinochet teleports in, when you kill Marx. Pinochet gives you 1000 gold. Congratulations, you beat Bandits!

Even if you don't come to the conclusion I intended when I made this scenario, I encourage you to attempt to find your own meaning out of it nevertheless.

Even if you don't come to the conclusion I intended when I made this scenario, I encourage you to attempt to find your own meaning out of it nevertheless.

-		 - -You heard of a small, as of yet unnamed valley someplace near the cold, inhospitable reigions of Dragon's Nest. It is amazing the area has done so well in the realms of ground fertility. However, you have also heard rumors that a few small religious uprisings are taking place in the vale. Who knows? Perhaps you could walk into the vale, join one of the groups, and maybe make a difference. Maybe.

-

Getting Started


-In the Echoes folder, you will find various files. These are:
-
    -
  • echoes.exs
    -This is the scenario itself. Move it into the Blades of Exile Scenarios folder. -
  • echoes.gif
    -If for some odd reason the megformac.sit doesn't work, I've included a .gif you can make the .meg out of. For PC users, convert this .gif into a .bmp before playing. -
  • megformac.sit
    -This is a stuffed file for the .meg file. Unstuff it and drag the echoes.meg into the Blades of Exile Scenarios folder. Why did I stuff it? Zipped-only megs never seem to work. :( -
  • part1.mid
    -This is a MIDI file suggested, though not required for paly during Part 1 of Echoes. -
  • part2.mid
    -This is a MIDI file suggested, though not required for paly during Part 2 of Echoes. -
  • Readme.html
    -This is the file you are looking at now! -
  • imgs
    -This is a folder with the images this readme accesses. -

-To play Echoes, a party of levels 25-35 is reccomended. If you are less experienced (around level 15), there should be some challenges in the northwestern mountains to get some small ammounts of treasure and experience, as well as a very convenient Sylvian training dungeon some place southwest of Spearhead where a whopping 590 EXP and loads of treasure are available, not counting experience gained by the kills themselves. It's a very valuable resource. There is also a drake cult encounter with ample experience.






- -In Echoes, almost the entire scenario is large battles and tactical struggles. A player who breezes through will be slaughtered. There is also a lack of direction in a few points in the scenario, though much of the scenario is action-oriented. A few hints have been listed below to help you out:
-
    -
  • When you start, the main point is to join a group, and perhaps build up skills and treasure if you're so inclined. -
  • No matter which group you join, something interesting will happen and the world around you will change dramatically. Be sure to investigate, that should give you an idea on how to play this scenario. -
  • In Jonah's Lair, there is more than just what it seems. Search carefully around the lair of the Ursagi for hints -
  • Some shops close within a few days of the start of the scenario, and some change after you join a side. Scrounge about in the beginning of the game to find some good deals. -
  • When entering this scenario, make sure your party can do damage in all elements, and you have reliable magi and fighters. No one strategy will work in any one point in this scenario. -
  • In this scenario, there will be a few isolated encounters where you will have to send in one character, and there will be battling. In these situations, make sure your one character can do damage ranged and physical, has lots of HP, lots of potions, and preferably a few scrolls and wands if he's a fighter. -
  • Never neglect archery in this scenario! It becomes extremely valuable in many situations, when enemies are invulnerable to magic and range becomes necessary. -
  • In large battles, have lots of potions. The boss you're fighting isn't always the last step on the flight of stairs. When fighting a boss, staying alive is always important, but make sure you're prepared to fight at least 2 more. -
  • In larger battles, usually the boss is the key to slaying the creatures around you. If you are overwhelmed in a fight, as you should be, aim for the boss and hopefully the others around you will die. -
  • Antimagic clouds take out every spell around you except for special spells. Send a warrior in and surround him in antimagic, and you should do fine. -







- -In this scenario, there are 3 ways to start, and 1 way to end. There are 5 sects in this vale, and you can join 3 of them in Echoes. I will go through their paths individually.


-

Fire Keepers

-To be a Fire Keeper, travel east of Sunshine, follow the road east of Vercimer, and north, hugging the lava river. You will reach a small ferry. Take it to the island, and enter Spearhead. Tell the guards you wnat a pass when you enter, and you will be taken to a waiting room. Hold the "w" key down, because you'll be waiting for quite some time. When the demon attacks, kill it. Go into the office, and accept the officials offer. You will be taken to the end of the lava river. Go up the mountain, and watch the cinematic sequence. Go out of the little cave, and follow the pathway north. If you go south, the scenario will end with a minor fight with illithids and a portal out. If you proceed north, this guy will prod you to go away for a while, then he will attack. Slay him and visit the temple. Go straight east and sit on the throne, then go straight back west and you'll be taken to Sunshine. Kill everyone and leave. To finish, see "General Ending".
-

Wind Keepers

-To be a Wind Keeper, go east of Sunshine and visit Vercimer. Go into the fortress, and talk to the priest. Accept his mission, and visit the inn. Then, find a secret passage in one of the store rooms, and follow the road west until you get a message. Follow the gravel and it will show you a secret passage in the fortress walls. Kill the bandits that ambush you, then save the fortress from siege by keeping the guards alive and killing all of the attackers. Talk to the priest again, and you will be told to go on a Sabatical Run. Fight through 32 grueling Mountain Worg outdoor encounters, and when you're through, you will be on the final ascent. Search the caverns in the mountain until you find a rope, and kill the worgs that ambush you. Use the rope to climb up the cliff, then search the caverns in the mountains for a long rope. Kill the haakai, get the rope, and climb up the cliff to the Wind Bascillica. Go to the northern end of the Bascillica, enter the small chapel, and pray to the statue. Go west to the area with 3 portals, and enter them and watch the cinematic sequences. Go upstairs then, and enter the area with the mats. Kneel, and you will recieve a message. Enter the portal, and approach the Wind Pope. Watch the Interrogator and Wind Pope fight, then accept the Interrogator's offer. If you do not, slay him, then the scenario ends. If you accept his offer, slay the illithids, then search for secret passages and find your way into the portal leading out. To finish, see "General Ending". -

Forest Keepers

-To be a Forest Keeper, visit Tituania and talk to the Forest Keepers in the fortress. Ask about joining, and enter the portal. Enter the Wind Tower, and when you're finished becoming a Wind Keeper, go south to the lab and listen to the 2 magi argue. One of them will charm you, and you will sit in the chair. Enter the city, then enter the barracks, then enter the mage institute, then leave. As you're leaving, a mysterios figure will ask you if you are a believer. If you say you are, you die. If you say you are not, you will be taken to a cave. Walk south, and the person who entered the throne will have to fight a little squabble alone, then leave and you will be outside of the Forest Keeper area. To finish, see "General Ending". -

General Ending

-After you are finished with your encounter joining any of the sides, go investigate Sunshine (this is already done for you if you are Fire Keeper), Black Spire and Vercimer. Tituania and Spearhead have changed too, but they aren't important. After the Mysterious Figure tells you to, go to the northeastern mountains area of the vale and the wall will open up and you will enter a cave. Slay the Mysterious Figure, and leave to the east. Enter the cave you find, and use move mountains to destroy the barriers. Go into the structure, and slay the illithids. Go west into the hallway, and go south. Slay the archmage, and then go back into the structure where you entered and head north. Go into the ruins and past the ramparts, and head west. Select your strongest party member, and send him across the river. Fight off the beats, and enter the portal to the north. Slay the gates, and enter the ruined temple. Slay the altar, and you will be rejoined with your party. Leave the cave, and hug the mountains. Enter the cave, and you will be near the Illithid Citadel. Enter the citadel, and go to the western end of the western guard tower and pull the lever in the center. Go to the eastern end of the eastern guard tower, and pull the lever. Go north to the citadel, and enter. Go east into the Hell Hound corall, then search the west wall for secret passages. Enter the north-easternmost pen (the runes can be walked through at many points) and search the northern wall for secret passages. Then, search the western wall for secret passages. Walk through the barriers, and sit in the chair. Watch the cinematic sequence, and kill the lever afterwards. Go east into the hallway, then south into the meeting room. Search the southwestern corner for secret passages, then talk to the speaking wall. Any answer will disable the runes, but a specific one will get you a reward, and a specific one gets you killed. You probably won't guess either. Go around the corner, and the rune will dissapear. Enter the treasure chamber and take the keys. Go back to the meeting room, then use the keys in the keyhole. Then go back into the hallway and go east into the prison. Use the keyhole to unlock the gates, and the easternmost cell has a crumbling wall. Use that to get access to a living quarters, which leads into the lava river and the docks. Go to the docks and take a boat. Use that boat to sail back to the hall where you started, then head north and into the area where you saw the cinematic sequence. Walk to the stairs, and go up to the final floor. Kill the final boss, then you've won! Congratulations.

-Walkthrough -
- -Due to the unique action-based nature or Echoes: Assault, similar to An Apology in a few respects, the scenario is based more around going through tight situations and you are pretty much held by the hand as you go through. The parts you might need help on, however, are listed below: -

-
  • When defending Earthford, take out the cannons, dragons, and Passive Illithids. In the first wave, the rest will retreat after you take out the cannons and Passive Illithid. -
  • Never forget your special spells! There are many places where you lose, die, or are stuck for a while when you don't cast your spells. Most of them are necessary throughout the game, one of them can make things easier in a boss battle when used. -
  • This scenario can be finished, but it can also be won. Both are difficult, and in fact finishing might be more difficult in some aspects, but search each area you encounter carefully, especially when there doesn't seem to be any pressing force making you go places. -
  • Search around for treasure. In many places, there is a spellbook or two, or perhaps some potions. All are quite valuable, considering the difficulty of this scenario. -
    -On a final note, I wish you the best of luck. It'll be needed. -     -
    • -Hall of Fame -
    - -This scenario has a Hall of Fame, which you can find here: -

    Echoes: Asaault Hall fo Fame

    -To be placed in the hall of fame, email me at terrorsmartyr@wi.rr.com, and describe with fair detail how you won. Remember, this scenario can be won, or it can be just finished. Winning takes much more effort, and you will be told when you have won. Good luck getting into the hall of fame! Any number of entries will be accepted. -     -

    -Credits -
    - -I would feel I was cheating some important people if I didn't list them here, so here are the people who made this scenario possible:

    -My beta-testers, who found heaps of errors in the many parts of the scenario I wrote in 2AM: -
      -
    • The Talking Spider, aka Morgan Wild, who gave many comments about the game. -
    • Imban, who despite being too lazy to make a prefab party, offered valuable help in creature balancing (however ungodly late his reports were). -
    • Brett Bixler, who gave many suggestions and helped this scenario immensely. -
    • Glynn Reaper, who while not a tester, made the prefab PC party for General Boston. -
    • LightningExiled, who unfortunately could not test due to a major hard drive error or something of the like, but I guess I'll put her up here anyway. -
    • Iambobsushi, who was a valuable aid in betatesting, however odd some of his comments were. :P -
    • Desperance, for providing ample inner jokes to insert into the scenario. -
    • You, for playing. I hope you enjoy this, and send sincere feedback. -

Feel free to use them, though please give me credit. Items with asteriks were works that I edited to suit my purposes. - -HINTS -===== -Q: This scenario is hard! Where can I find ways to make it easier? -A: After you slay the Hyperion General, there will be powerful mage spells available in King's Wildpoint, and The Interrogator will be a bit south of the entrance to Fort Lamprey- he has some powerful aid, as well as knowledge of a bonus dungeon. Talk to him. You can even buy items that increase skills! The priest in King's Wildpoint will also give you Revive. And be sure to check with Kazaros. Towards the end of the game, he has the spells Divine Thud and Protection available- these will help you greatly. -Q: I'm in the Hyperion Vault, and I can't figure out how to beat the Hyperion Lich! -A: To beat the Hyperion Lich, you must first dispense of his servants and some-forth. The first is a powerful Demolich. To get rid of him, check the barrel. Then, fire a flame spell at him- the explosives will detonate, anniahlating him. You will then have to fight 4 Hyperion Imps, but not to worry- a PC with Protection will be fine. When you slay all 4 Imps, the Hyperion Lich will attack personally. BE WARNED! This is not his final form. He is vulnerable to most spells, though. When you kill him, he will turn into a Pyrolich. Slay him as a Pyrolich, and the treasure will be revealed. -Q: I'm in the Hyperion Vault, and I can't figure out how to beat the Ninja Golem! -A: First, visit nthe northwestern room. Pick up some explosives, then place them on the runes nearby. Then, detonate the explosives, with a fire spell. Inside, there will be a journal. Read the journal, then search the bookshelves. Step on the stone bridge leading to the golem. It will still be a tough fight, but it will be beatable. -Q: I'm in the Hyperion Vault, and I can't figure out how to beat the Evil Altar! -A: Kill the 8 pillars surrounding it. When you do, you have 3 turns to look at the altar. When you do, select 'pray', and you've won. Sit in the throne to get your prize. - -WALKTHRU -======== -You will start out in your quarters in Fort Lamprey. Feel free to pick up any of the items that appear in your room. From there, head north to the main part of the hallway, then east. Enter the building in the center of the fort, and sit down on either of the vacant seats. You will meet Dervish Thomas and Dervish Jack. They will tell you to deliver a cease-fire to the Sylvians. Before you leave the fort, be sure to go east of the building with the dervishes, into the library section. Go as far north as you can, then into Kazaros' office. There is a secret passage in the northwestern corner. The southernmost tome in that room is readable, the rest will open later. It's also suggested that you go south of where the dervishes are, and in that section is an armory, with plenty of treasure. From there, proceed to go north of the building where the dervishes are, and outside. Go east or west of the Hyperions, and you will meet a camp of Sylvians. If you read Kazaros' tome, then approach them, and they will let you through. If you did not, then you will be forced to fight them, unless you chose "leave". Find your way into the northeastern part of the valley, and you will find a tower fortress. Enter it, and the Sylvians inside will let you in. You will be lead to the general, who will take your treaty, and note that it now says the Empire wishes to ally. You have a choice of what to say. After which, you are escorted out of the fortress. Go back to the dervishes, and they will ask you if you were responsible. You may chose what to say, here. They will then tell you to clear out a way to the Hyperion Citadel. From there, leave the fort, and go to the place where the road begins, and follow it, until a soldier tells you to stop. If you chose to proceed, you will fight 3 long waves of Hyperions. You had better hope you have plenty of potions! -When you return to Fort Lamprey, the dervishes will tell you to re-visit the Sylvians. Do so, and they will take you to their leaders, including the second Mysterious Figure out of two in the game, their leader. You will have another chance to respond at this juncture. You are free to roam the fort, though there is little to do here. Return to Fort Lamprey, and speak with the dervishes. You will be instructed to attack the Hyperion Fort. Enter the fort, and go south. Along the metal wall is a door. Unlock it, and step on the rune. The answer to the questions the rune will ask go as follows: -1) Don Henley -2) Neil Young -3) Deja Vu -4) Pink Floyd, the worst band IN THE WORLD -5) Vince Fizz -6) Hot Rocks -7) Yes -8) Joe Walsh -From there, there is a room with two Artilleries. Do not try to fight these! Run for the nearest window, and look at it. You will be in the air ducts. Proceed down either one, and you will be teleported to the Hyperion General, who is translucent. Surrounding him are 8 Golems. When you have slain all 8 golems, the Hyperion General will materialize. Attacking him before then is useless. Slay the general, and a secret passage will appear for you to escape by. Exit the fort, and go back to Fort Lamprey. At this poinrt, Dervishes Jack and Thomas have been slain. You will be told to assault the Hyperion Citadel. Before you go to the Hyperion Citadel, make sure you've checked Kazaros' tomes! Follow the path into the Hyperion vale, and enter the tower. You will be promptly blasted, and thrown into a cell. 500 or so moves later, someone will blast your northern wall on accident. Use move mountains or shatter on that space, and slay the Hyperion magi on the other side. Do not unlock the door on the western wall- you will be slain if you do. Rather, go north, into the library. There is a small secret passage on the northwestern end. Enter it, and clear your way to the other end. When you open up that secret passage, the other one will close itself. Enter the room, and you will meet the Hyperion Mage. He will raise a few Flame Beasts to combat you, while he completes his ritual. In a few moves, he will summon an intensely dangerous Helios Hyperion. When you slay the Helios Hyperion, the Hyperion Mage will teleport away, and the Helios Hyperion will fade out of existance slowly. If you slay the Hyperion Mage first, then he will teleport out. There is another secret passage on the northwestern wall that appears after you kill the Helios Hyperion. Enter it, and unlock the door to the south. Run to the south, and there will be a stairway in a small room. Climb it to the second floor. At that point, a very large group of Hyperions is already waiting for you. Refuse their demand, and they will fight you- and you will be forced to die. Accept their demand, and they will take you to a small chamber. From there, you can poke around a bit. If you check the door out, you will be notified that there are too many Hyperions for you to escape. After checking that door, return to your room. A golen-armored man calling himself Helios Hyperion will appear, and tell you to escape with his aid. Go back to the door, and you will be in a hallway. Watch the golden-armored man slay the Hyperions, and teleport out. From there, your path is mostly clear. There will be a few stragglers, but not many. Work your way to the southeastern corner, and find a small office. Open the locked door, and find the key in the chest in the bedroom. As you're leaving, a dervish will teleport in, and summon up a flame beast. Kill the dervish, and you will learn it is a demon. Helios Hyperion will teleport in and slay the demon. Go back to the center hallway, and unlock the doors to the south with the key. You will find the Hyperion Mage has completed another summon! It's a Helios Hyperion, but he's impervious to all attacks. The key to his strength is the 4 crystals around him. If you smash those, then the Helios Hyperion will be vulnerable, once again. Slay it twice, and the Hyperion Mage will teleport away. Enter the portal, and you will be on the top level of the citadel. In about 6 moves, Helios Hyperion will teleport in. If the special spells are hurting you, then slay the Hyperion Dervish- one of them will be stopped. Slay the Hyperion Mage, and he will explode with furious energy. Talk to Helios Hyperion, and he will create a portal out. Feel free to take the artifact he drops. When you enter the portal, you will be taken to a hidden cave, where a Mysterious Figure (the first) will battle you. Beware! He absorbs blasts of energy. Wound will damage him, but all other magical attacks will heal him. He has three healing pods on his side that will attack him with blasts of energy, healing him. When you slay the Mysterious Figure, all other creatures will dissapear, and a door will form to the south. Enter it, and there will be a portal. At the other end of the portal is the climax to all the events ocurring in the vale, the final decision of the Sylvians... - -Noted Bugs: --1.0.1: Fixed Arcane Skills, as well as added a warning about losing items while the party is split. - -If you have any questions, concerns, comments, bug reports or death threats, you can contact me or others who would have answers to your inquiries: - - Spiderweb Software Boards - http://www.ironycentral.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi - - The Lyceum - http://pub26.ezboard.com/bthelyceum - - AOL Instant Messanger - TerrorsMartyr - Kleptonoceros - - Microsoft Instant Messanger - terrorsmartyr@hotmail.com - - E-mail - terrorsmartyr@wi.rr.com - -Thanks for playing!
