Quick question, as I'm not familiar with these kind of games and I'm a bit stuck (spoiler for lord Readric quest):
Spoiler: |
I found the priest on the top floor of Readric castle and he says he can help me if I free Giacco from the dungeons.
I reached the dungeons and cleared them of enemies. Now the problem is: there's one locked door (that I don't have the key for) and Giacco's cell, that I can't lockpick due to my low level in mechanics.
Now, the question is: do I have to grind until I have enough mechanics skill to free Giacco or is there an alternative way and I just haven't looked hard enough for it? Hope it's not the first, I don't care if it's "old school", blocking progress until a character stat is met it's terrible game design imho.

Just hold ALT to highlight anything lootable or interactive and you should be able to find it.

Depending on your mechanics level: you can increase it by 1 by sleeping at an expensive room in the Black Hound inn. That might help if you're only missing 1 point.
Spoiler: |
The key that opens Giacco's cell can be acquired from the body of the animancer in the very same dungeon. She's in a room close to Giacco's cell. |

Spoiler: | Freeing the lad is just one of many routes. It's not like your progress is blocked. Main objective is to get to Readric - how you do it is up to you. I don't think you absolutely have to help the priest. You can definitely side with the wizard/animancer, I'm not sure, but it's possible you can just waltz into Raedric's chamber without siding with either one of them.
Also, you can always hire someone with mechanics at the inn. It'll cost you, though. The wizard might have the key to that cell too.
You definitely should have someone with mechanics on the team, though  You'll lose too much - money and xp both (you get experience points for opening doors and disarming traps - possibly also finding secrets). |

Are there workarounds for the gamebreaking bugs so far (the saving one, as far as I know?). Played like half an hour and wondering whether is better to wait or to proceed...

Grieving Mother, she's in Dyrwood Village.
She's also written by MCA like Durance, so you should use her! Unsurprisingly, the 2 most interesting characters are both by MCA.

He wrote their original incarnations but they were neutered to about 25% of the content he created and were finished by someone else. There's an interview where he said he would feel uncomfortable taking credit for them.

I'm having doubts to continue the game, bugs everwhere.
The score of 10 minutes of play:
add a talent for bonus 1st level spell: shit hapens, even after resting.
Want to cast a scroll: hell no, claims lore is to low (whille it is 9).
And these ones arn't even posted on any forum, people only seem to post the game breaking bugs.
This needs >3 months of fixing. A shame, the game is realy good.

Dungeon level 8 on hard. Mates, it's kicking my ass sensless on hard. And I'm loving it, still soldiering on. I'm level 6 - mobs are around 9.
I'd really need a min/maxed group to pull this off. My wiz companion has a might of 12, I fire off all my damaging spells, hit with them all, and I take down 20% of the mobs, not more. Lels.

Do those weapons actually have more damage than normal weapons?
So far i only got some very few named ones, but they only had like 2-3 instead of 1 enchant
The weapon diversity is pretty bad in this game

Exceptional gives +8 accuracy and +30% damage.

Great, there seems to be a pretty huge topic about this problem. Can't believe you guys all passed it without problems. I'm stuck now till the patch since i can't leave the castle at all.

Found exceptional weapons have more enchant slots as you haven't had to improve them to exceptional wasting slots.
So best weapon will be a unique weapon that is already exceptional and has a unique, powerful enchant. I've not seen many uniques with a high base quality yet.
