Heads up about the relic dagger

[ಠ_ಠBoB Dolen ಠ_ಠ]

There's a typo in \Might & Magic® X Legacy\Might and Magic X Legacy_Data\StreamingAssets\StaticData\QuestSteps. csv -- open the file in notepad++ or whatever and search for MELEE_WEAPON.82 and change the period to a comma. If you don't fix it, you cannot get the quest reward for the bestiary, which is a relic dagger.

I found this out from someone way after I completed the quest

Thanks for the heads up ;)
The Jassads_bestiary line is quite easy to spot (pretty close to the top)

Edited in the old simple version of notepad, should work fine i think?

[Seltin]

what point in the quest line, like after 40 or 50 ?

[Kriminaal]

Ouch, this looks like the first Jassads bestiary entry. I wonder if I change the string for an upcoming point in the quest if I will get the reward. Or If I changed all the entries to give me a weapon :P Below, you can see that #8 is the one with the "MELEE_WEAPON" entry in the line, anyone who has changed text before have any input on this and what to change exactly so I don't blow up the quest entirely ?

8,QUEST_TYPE_ONGOING,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_NAME,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_FLAVOR,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_SHORT,78,"18,1,27,1",0,0,11,"MELEE_WEAPON,82,1,1,1",,0,0,,0,,NONE,0,"0,0",0

[Kriminaal]

So I am on "30 creatures in the bestiary", which I think is 3/5. So would I change #12 to...

12,QUEST_TYPE_ONGOING,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_NAME,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_FLAVOR,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_SHORT,78,"20,1,29,1",0,0,13,"MELEE_WEAPON,82,1,1,1",,0,0,,0,,NONE,0,"0,0",0

*I did the change, I'll go turn in the quest here in a few minutes to see how it goes.

Darn, didn't work. I even changed all the lines to try to give it to me. Suckage, would really like the dagger for my dagger wielding ranger.

[stromming78]

I think just changing the peroid inte comma should yield the reward at the end of the quest line, but i havent been able to get those last entries just yet .

My old relic is still running on a 32-bit Vista, so i'm not progressing very fast i'm afraid ...

"-Thanks for playing Might and Magic X Legacy! Time played: 0 Hours and 6 minutes"

The reward is just for the first part of the quest. Still using that dagger on my BM at lvl 20, however I'm sure I could find a nicer one in a store, but daggers are very rare for some reason. Stats at lvl 4 :

11-22 Damage
+17 fire damage
+ 8 spirit
+ 50 mana

It's almost like it's a caster weapon, but it doesn't give spell crit so it's kinda useless on casters. Strange item.

[Hobo Elf]

Damage is quite nice and useable even at the end game dungeons. The large amount of mana is obviously meant so that you can use the AoE skill some more on your BD.

[Blue]

Yeah it's all due to the RNG, but I found a dagger in a shop with similar damage and the +1 attack per turn bonus, which makes is much better than the relic one. I only ever found one though, even though I check the weapons shops regularly for another.

[Andhaira]

But what about spirit? Does spirit affect BM advanced class special abilities?

Is this for the first Bestiary quest reward?

No it just gives mana AFAIK. The dagger gives out a total of 74 mana. It does mean that you can use your warfare and special abilities much more often though. Helps with those long fights against 10 hard mobs.

[GAME OVER]

dagger isn't so bad for casters. equip before rest/pot usage. switch to focus after you spent that mana. if you don't mind equipment juggling, it will give you extra spells to play with and enhances efficiency of resting and mana pots. Playing through magic menagerie achievement on warrior mode atm and that early melee damage from dagger helps quite a lot.

[Velvet Winter]

Nice catch! Thank you for the fix

[Godwin]

Thanks for the info, I already turned in the first part of the quest, but now I know I don't need to fret too much, my Bladedancer has 2 better daggers :)

Hey guys, this can be fixed at any point in the quest or added to a different quest even, here is the example line for the 2nd stage of the quest:

11,QUEST_TYPE_ONGOING,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_NAME,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_FLAVOR,QUEST_STEP_JASSADS_BESTIARY_1_SHORT,78,"19,1,28,1",0,0,12,"MELEE_WEAPON,82,1,1,1",,0,0,,0,,NONE,0,"0,0",0

Note that it is a compound entry, so you need:

"MELEE_WEAPON,82,1,1,1"

after the follow-up step entry, which will be blank if that quest step doesn't give loot:

 
12,,,0,0,,0,,NONE,0,"0,0",0

Hope that helps, I just editted mine. Damn, daggers are rare.
