About Merchants and Rot
Is there any way to cure a merchant if you sold a Tenebrium item to them without realizing they would catch Rot? I feel so guilty :'( I saw so many merchants selling the stuff that I wrongfully assumed that most of the late game merchants knew how to handle the stuff! I suppose only Hortun and the Tenebrium merchants should be handling that stuff :P But anyways, is there any way I can cure a merchant of Rot? I tried a bloodstone and the Doctor Skill, but neither worked.

Dont know if they can be cured since they cant learn the tenebrium skill but be comforted that they wont die hehe. Just takes them down to 1 health ;)~

This needs to be fixed, some vendors sell tenebrium weapons but only get rot when you sell one to them.

Okay, see, I thought it was a bug because I don't think that should happen, but you never can tell when something like this is by design or mistake :P

Merchants who sell Tenebrium items will not get rot if you sell them back, but merchants who didnt originally sell tenebrium items will contract the ROT! ewwwwwwww

You feel guilty? Im sure you sold alrady stolen stuff. ;OP

I guess that will be fixed, self if not, now that you know of it, next walkthru you can make it without the sinner way.


Fantasy times are harsh times.


Joey :O)

They won't ever die from it, so don't feel too bad about it)
btw, undead merchants, apparently, can be infected as well.

No, it wasn't stolen stuff. It was some tenebrium weapons I found in some treasure chests and stuff. I found that none of the merchants I sold tenebrium to got sick except for one, but he had previously offered tenebrium for sale in his shop, so I thought he would be fine with my items.

I did craft some extra tenebrium stuff for myself because the pre-purchased weapons didn't do as good damage or have as nice magical enchantments and it was just better to add tenebrium to favourite weapons. Anyhow, I checked what I'd sold to the guy was from the loot I picked up somewhere.

Anyways, it seems like a bug to me, but the guy hasn't died and I'll finish the game tomorrow ;)

I know you sold them tenebrium Weapons, not stolen things you felt sorry for. But im sure you stole some stuff in the game and sold it somewhere. I ment it little bit sarcastic. ;O)

oh, I hate to let good sarcasm go to waste! Yes, I stole some things in the game and accidentally killed a civilian :( But I wouldn't *purposely* infect an innocent character with rot. Next game I'll just throw tenebrium on the ground, I cannot spend all the gold I have anyways!!

Bloodstone healing does cure the rot, so I would assume that if you use one of those bloody stones close to that vendor that he will get cured. No guarantee on it, I sold my tenebrium weapons only to vendors who have the tenebrium skill to exactly prevent this from happening.

It's annoying isnt it. Sell to the orc in Hunters Edge. Or use it to kill the other orcs in Hunters edge selling to them. ha.:cybereye:
CrackeR Aug 8, 2014 @ 6:25am 
As i said before, Rot will only take health down to 1 , doesnt kill ;)~

This is funny. I don't know how I escaped this faux pas (I could so see me doing it) but I too would have felt guilty. Make sure the (almost) widow(er) and children are taken care of properly. :)

That was the first thing I tried, and after 2 attempts, I concluded this will not work. I then went to Sacred Stone to steal the Tenebrium skill book from lady alphabet's office, hoping that he could learn the skill and be all right, but of course, he probably doesn't really know how to read. Poor guy.

Invulnability spell works against rot after next tick on it
