Part 18: Mid-Game Chores
Hitting up the Banker to empty your account |
Before we do anything else it is time to take care of some minor chores, so first thing you should do is go empty your bank account.
- The Blacksmith Shop
Now head over to the Blacksmith and have them repair your armor. At this point you should possess the following items:
* Roman Greaves
* Roman Vambraces
* Roman Spaulders
When you check the shop you will see that you can now purchase the Roman Chest Guard -- do that as it adds to your health and damage resistance quite nicely! In addition to this there are two new items that have been added to the shop but you cannot buy them -- these are a Seusenhofer Chest Guard and a Seusenhofer Pauldrons. They are both Shop Quest rewards -- in other words they get unlocked and you can purchase them if you completed their quest.
You should have the items you need to complete the Blacksmith Shop Quest "Faith" already and may have already completed it, I don't know, but if not do so now. That unlocks the Captain's Sword. The quest that unlocks the two new pieces of armor is called "Exotica" and requires the following artifact items:
* 2 Shrunken Heads
* 3 Elephant Ivory
* 3 Indian Diamond
Chances are good you have some -- but not all -- of the items you need for this, but hey that is two good armor upgrades, so that should be all the encouragement you need to start getting serious about the treasure chests! Plus you need to do the recruit training, as well as the other guild challenges so combine all that into your regular treasure chest hunting routine why don't you?
There are a number of new weapons available as well as ones you previously unlocked. Look at them to see if there is anything you want paying attention to the stats.
- Art Shop
Head there and purchase any paintings and maps you do not already have. The paintings are one of the things you collect in the game, the maps your best way to locate the artifacts that we need -- so do not skimp on them!
The Tailor Shop has your Pouch Needs Covered! |
- Tailor Shop
You can do dye jobs on your gear if you like, whatever makes you happy, but whatever you do make absolutely certain that you purchase the Pouch Upgrades here! At a minimum you should now have the following upgrades (and if you do not, then buy them now):
* Medium Medicine Piuch
* Large Medicine Pouch
* Knife Belt Upgrade
* Heavy Sheath
* Smoke Bomb Pouch
* Medium Quiver
In addition to the above the shop will have a Large Quiver but to buy that you have to complete the Ship Quest, "Pulling the Threads" which requires 8 Silk and 5 Cardinal's Purple Dye, which I know you do not have. You get that as loot on certain enemies and as artifact rewards from Treasure Chests... You know where this is going, right?
- Wrapping up the Chores
OK you have now seen to everything except the Doctor. Check your kit -- if you are low on supplies, head to the nearest Doctor and buy them now. Otherwise you are good to go. Oh, one more thing, always keep an eye out for shops to upgrade and, when you have the extra money, the special sites you can purchase. You eventually need to have upgraded and bought all of those anyway, so seeing to them when you can is better than waiting until the end of the game and having only that left to do -- it could get wicked boring that way!
