Act 2 : what to do first for my Durge playthrough ?

[Thé]

Hi all,

I'm doing an evil run as Durge for my current playthrough.
My plan was to go immediately with Kar'niss to Moonrise Towers, but do I have to go to Last Light's Inn first ?

I don't plan on saving it, I just want to make Shart a Dark Justiciar for Act 2 and recruit Minthara. I'd also like to kill Isobel, but idk if it's something that can be given as a task after meeting up with the Absolutists or if I should just head there right now.

That's my main question, but if you have any other tips and orders of quests/tasks for me for this Durge playthrough (even past act 2), please do tell !

Wait wrong setting... Though Durge DOES make a skull throne comment I think!

I found Minthara then destroyed last light during my Evil Durge run. Just make sure to rest so you can get the whole "Gift or Lover" overnight scene.

For maximum rewards, I'd do all the "good" sidequests in Last Light's Inn first.

Then once I got everything I need there, betray all those good people and send last light back into Shar's embrace.

Important thing, if you play a warlock you must save the thieflings at Moonrise for the robe before doublecrossing them at Last Light. And you hopefully had saved Alfira in act1 before this.

you may want to go to the inn early. I am not sure it matters in the big picture, but I think you get some brownie points for helping marcus that may make some of the other bad NPCs like you more -- may bypass a roll or two to convince them you are on their side and may net you some other minor effects.

If you're playing Durge that quest won't be possible since you killed Alfira

If you knock out Alfira in the Druid Grove before resting to trigger the event, then another Bard will show up instead of her, allowing Alfira to survive. After resting Alfira can be found in the Druid Grove in the same place as usual with no consequence (unless you messed up knocking her out an aggroed others etc.). If you have too much bad relation with her you can gift money to her to repair the relationship.

Replaced by Quil Grootslang who gets murder hoboed:

This will save Alfira and allow Durge to get Potent Robe etc.

Edit: You can also kill the Durge before rest and revive him/her after, but that will not save Alfira or Quil (whichever one shows up at camp). It WILL count as you not murdering them with Sceleritas Fel, who will be upset you didn't do the deed (they still die brutally like I said with probably Fel murdering them instead). You will also not get the cloak as a reward though.

You could just use a mod that gives you the robe as a reward from the buttler. It is very lame that many good items are rewarded in good playthroughs.

You should all be running.

Sounds like a min max question - if so and if you saved Alfira - you can complete her quest first to grab the best robe for some builds and THEN burn everything to the ground.

Mind you, that still locks you out of a lot of interactions in act 3, Dammon as a vendor AND completing Karlach personal quest.
