unlocking the exile

[76561199468948704]

So in order to unlock the exile I need to put the blank seal of the exile in the weapon slot and beat the priest a second time. Am I to assume I am going to need that second weapon slot in order to do so? I dont see how I can beat the priest without a weapon.

If you're thinking conceptually, like "how can I fight without a weapon", then I would remind you that the first fights in the tutorial zone at the start of the game is without a weapon. Like most games, you revert to unarmed combat - you punch enemies.

If you're saying you don't have enough adventure stats without a weapon, then obviously you need to continue building them up. By the time you're ready to take on exile v1, the priest is a joke. I wouldn't think the stats from a weapon would be needed.

That said, the dual wield wishes are a big deal. They should probably be a high priority for you. It could be the encounter was designed with the second weapon slot in mind and assumes you'd have it by then.

Are you actually at this point without the second weapon slot, or are you just thinking/planning ahead?

i am just finishing my second hack day and 2 days into the long rebirth that is supposed to end after I kill the exile. I just hit about 12 sextilion power with beast mode on and figured I would try to kill the priest. Turns out I can. looks like my maxed Malf slammer gives me about half of my power as opposed to removing it. I just noticed I could use a second weapon slot, or rather I probably noticed earlier and didnt think to do the wish. Actually I seem to remember the guide saying to do the duel welding wish AFTER killing exile, and only when it is cheap. So I didn't prioritize it.

Now refreshing my memory about having to use a blank weapon to kill the priest, I put in for the duel welding wish and just got my first level overnight. I assume I will have to wait at least another 3 or 4 days for advanced training and other ways to raise adventure stats while also waiting to get some levels on the wish. That is fine since I need to build up to kill the exile anyway.

ok that wasn't that hard. I forgot the hackday gains would allow me to boost my adventure magic quickly.

So I went through all the pieces of the exile and put them on the top left corner of the first page. I control - clicked on various sewer items that showed up, including some 1 boosts, I don't know what was supposed to happen, but the priest is still showing up when I go to the exile.

The top left corner of my page 1 inventory has 2 merge slots, maybe this alters the position of the exile???
