Voss's Silver Sword in Act1

[EmoGopher]

Can you no longer use disarming ranged attack to get Voss's Silver sword in Act 1 up at the Mountain Pass? Everytime I get a successful disarm, it keeps dropping his crossbow.

I got it recently.

you can still get it. i got it at level 3...

getting it does mess up a lot of lae'zels dialogue tho. soon as you get it she starts spouting stuff about act3 long before you even have any knowledge of anything shes talking about lol
its cool that you can get it but with how it breaks story stuff it was def not intended to be able to get it at that point lol

wouldn't recommend getting it on a 1st play-through. wait till act 3 where you get it legit :P

[EmoGopher]

when you disarmed him, did you get his crossbow sometimes or just get his sword? cause im wondering since the 2nd patch came out im trying now on a new playthrough and havent gotten it yet.

ive beaten the game already, want to get this sword for a 2nd playthrough since i learned about it when i was already past this point.

im using a hireling cause everytime i try to get close with lae'zel, no matter which dialog i choose, she just runs in like a doof and cant use her to disarm him

I got it after disarming him as Fighter with lvl 3 on the 05.09.

just his sword. and shadowheart had a 39% chance to disarm him with command.
i just got him to drop it and ran off till combat broke while my rogue snuck in and picked it up and stealthed away.
level 3 :D

i didnt think about the command drop spell, if i dont get this thing to drop soon i might give that a try

easier cos its ranged :)
just do it from up on the cliff / bridge and maybe give her items that increase run / jump distance to book it once he drops it (unless you wanna deal with the fight then and there)

[Zoid13]

also not sure if he has it in act 1 also. but if you pickpocket him in act 3 you can steal a purple gyth long sword from him too.

I used a hired character. Used invisibility on her, and disarming strike. Did this just last night.

Melee. Just need a invis potion to do it. A vigilance potion to go first after the battle starts and another invis potion to get savely out.

i did this recently, used shadowheart command: drop weapon.
used it from on top of the bridge/scaffolding with the rest of the party in stealth.
dont bring lazel, she starts a conversation and things work out differently.
if the command spell worked he drops the weapon and then flies off.
shadowheart can either just die and the attackers reset agro so u can stealth in and pick up the weapon or u can res her and kill the grp, go to camp and give the weapon to lazel.

whats confusing me is that whenever i try to use command: drop, disarm melee or range, he is only dropping his crossbow. is there something im doing wrong? ive been at this for about 1.5hrs now lol
