Bard's Tale III - Tarmitia: Tarmitia Solution
Alternate Universe 6 of 7
Note: BEFORE you complete this world's quest, ensure that you have all of the
experience levels you want. At the completion of this quest, the old man will die and that will be the end of advancement. I haven't tried going to a wizards' guild in the other worlds, but maybe one of them will still give you levels. In the first part of these notes, I mentioned the "feature" where if you swap out the 1st character of the party with a new monster (e.g.
wind wolf, wind dragon, etc.), the old man will keep on giving you hundreds of thousands of experience points. After this world, that won't happen again. So make sure you're powerful enough to finish this game. I recommend level 60+, arch-mages with 600+ magic and at least 500+ hits per person. Anything less than a 1000 is risky.
Solution to this world:
Note: you can skip all dungeons except Berlin and Tarmitia.
- Give the names to the ghost head in the Berlin dungeon (see map). However it's unknown if this works since the original author went the long route to map this. You may have to start with Troy's ghost head question and go from there in the proper sequence.
- Take on Werra and ten death guards. It's a tough battle.
- Get the shield and return to the old man via the Skara Brae teleport in the northeastern corner of the Tarmitia dungeon.
