BC161

END of Teron

This way u cant do the last 2 missions of IG. Lost kills and rep with IG also Skill points. Last mission there are 15Possible kills. (maybe possible 8 because its really hard make friendly kills there)
I want ask the Developers to make it possible doing this missions after killing all in teron or maybe some other choise.
I didnt tryed but if u leave Decanus alive when u storm IF fort and reset combat u may be able get the missions. WIll try this when i have time :)

and ther is no possible way to massacre Ganezzar. So many there to add to BC :P.
Please Devs make it happen.
Also i want kill Aurelius and his guards :)
Will add Marodan list of kills later.
u can check my profile i uploaded SS from this run.

In Maro at Kemneby Raiders fight i killed 10 out of 17 possible.
Missed 6 in Marodan Massacre.

:salute:

[Flint]

Holy moly, amazing run!

[Ragshak]

Did you use trick to move combat from one place to another to kill all townsfolk?

[tedlewton]

Annoying how killing 20 at a time earns the same sp as killing one isn't it?
Nice run!

[Goral]

:salute:
I've had 452 body count but was also going for as many SP as possible (96 BC after Teron). I might try to beat your record but only after all updates are in. Didn't think that over 500 kills is possible but it is.

[NaViL]

I played as a merc. And yeah, I massacred Ganezzar to a degree (didn't kill everyone since I wanted to do quests and get as many SPs as possible). All you needed was going in without the amulet, just outside the gate there is a mob that asks who do you worship or something like that and you can use that for a fight. You can also kill the 3 zealots that are connected to Darganus/Hector/Elias quest since even when you kill them the game doesn't know that (you can't kill them again but you can do Elias quest).

When I did it there were less kills possible (it was before the Basileos update and 3 arena challengers).

As for the updates, Vince said they will make updates till January so I assume that it also means increase in BC.

Hi again :)
which amulet u mean? Which item is this. doin max kills in teron i started in marodan without guild. Couldnt finish the IG quest line in Teron. in my run i didnt massacred Gannezzar. This will hugely increased my BC :). i will run the game through the IG quest line to cee what i did missed. Also did u massacred Caer Tor? And ouside of Zamedi tower there is some BC which i couldnt find way to make.

[Goral]

You can buy amulet from a guy outside Ganezzar which gives you safe passage through the gate. Otherwise you will fight the zealots. But if Ganezzar is already under the siege you won't run into them.
In Caer-Tor I couldn't do a thing since the only fight I could initiate was the one given by one of the Centurions and the path was closed, you couldn't run off anywhere. Zamedi the same.

I was with IG all the time.

[mindless]

Not bad, not bad! I got only 160 by leaving Teron =]

[rafaellvx]

All hail. You should get your own NPC in the game. ;-)

[Critical Hit Dude]

Tried kiting Rhakus to the thief guild and killed all the thieves but then I get expeled from Teran.

Did something get changed?

And is this body count strategy available to all factions?

Killing notable citizens (and a guildmaster is certainly notable, even if not exactly the pillar of community) will get you expelled. It's not like the guards don't know who runs the thieves guild, but a proper balance must be maintained and so they leave him alone.

Rhaskos is a nobody and thus a fair game.

And is this body count strategy available to all factions?

Yes, with the exception of faction-specific quests.

[Critical Hit Dude]

Thanks for the response, I wonder how Op Navil did it? Was that a previous build. Kind of shame and I wanted to harvest all thieves' guilds equipment, or for that matter of every NPC in Teran. Once I get all their stuff, I don't mind getting kicked up.

[NaViL]

Hello,
i didnt played this game since my post in 5 years. I plan soon to make another run for max BC. I am sure there were updates after my post in 2015. So Max BC surely is increased. Will try mix build stealing + mercenary, ofc not sure this is possible.
