Underworld co-op

[CywilL]

So we finished the main campaign on multiplayer and wanted to start the underworld campaign, the thing is that you get spawned in the multiplayer hub, and when you go to the place where the dlc begins there's no npc's, no portal, nothing. So, we either have to start the server in a different way or we have to travel to the dlc area ourselves, which would not be a problem if we knew how to get there. Anybody knows how to start the multiplayer campaign without glitching the first quest? Or how to get to the place the portal at the beginning of the dlc leads to?

Ancaria is not connected to the underworld as far as I know

You need to export the characters you played the Ancaria campaign with, select those for the Underworld campaign and (if not mistaken) log in to end up at the starter's island.

There's a portal to the far right of the island taking you directly to the UW area.
The area you enter will be fenced off by some "magic" barrier, which will disappear the moment you talked to the ghost of Valor. After that it's simply following the arrow.


One piece of advice, if you're able to use another computer / laptop to keep the map of Ancaria at the Sacred Wiki open, do so as it shows how you need to progress through the campain.
Reason is that it does have some tricky waypoints giving you the impression you need to head to another direction as you actually have to move to.

The portal to the far right takes you to the place you died last time, we tested that, it takes you back to the spawning point when you enter it without dying. There is however a goblin on the island, when you click on him he says something about a tower in the starting city, and it turned out that this tower is on the island that is the multiplayer hub. Thre's a ladder leading to the basement and from there you have acces to teleports leading to all the different game regions in both ancaria and underworld. So i guess we'll have to work this quest out from here and pretend that nothing happened.

Okay there's a portal even further to the right which works. Going trough the tower doesn't help as valor's ghost waits behind a magic barier, so you can't enter that area any other way than trough that portal.

first time coop question. Is it normal to do a campaign coop and all the quests reset at each new login? Also, I could save the first time I was in, but no longer. all items are there as before in inventory and the cities chest.

It's been a looooooooong time since I did the campaign in MP, so I may be mistaken, but I believe the thing has to be done into one go.
I seem to remember we did that when playing at the MP servers when they were still on.

Given the length of the campaign, it may be a good idea to play it in SP first, to make sure you know which path to take.

yes, I've done the SP Campaign, I'm just finding it a little frustrating that some of the quests to activate NPC traders and such are gone after a session and need to be redone if you want to use them again. I also ended up with multiples of special items I would of thought would be unique such as Enlightened Iron sword. My real hope was that I might play multiple characters and be able to trade among them. I get so much great battle mage gear on my wood elf. haha

The world resets every login so you have to save the game, and to do that you have to be the host, which means you just need to be the first person on the server. If you want to load the game you have to enter first again, and load the game from the lobby.
