Legendary Stronghold Adventure?
Has anyone actually had one of these pop up? If so, what are the requirements for them to appear? I'm at level 16 but the highest adventures I get are Grand ones.

what you know that i dont......legendary adventure...i had no idea...can you link to some info bout it?

Well legendary adventures are a fact, since you need to complete one for the achievement. That said, same here, lv 16 & finished the game and no legendaries. I think we need to restart fresh and get the stronghold asap to get as much turns as possible so that one quest might pop it.

It's the achievement "A Storied Adventurer", it requires you to complete a Minor, Average, Major, Grand, and Legendary stronghold adventure.

It says nothing about when they unlock though.

I was wondering about this as well. Has anybody managed to get the Storied Adventurer achievement? I was just checking the global achievement stats for the game and it says 0% of players have that achievement. I wonder if it could be broken? Most of the other new achievements (from the new update and White March Part 2) have been unlocked by very few people as well, but they still have more than 0%.

Also, I just finished the game, including pretty much all quests, tasks, and expansion content, with nearly 200 hours total put in, and I don't believe I ever saw a legendary adventure at the stronghold.

I had a "Legendary Adventure" a couple of times Pre-3.0, but I had a very high prestige for my keep and prestigious visitors...I thought it was random.

I havne't had anything like that in the new version.

Got it yesterday, a legendary adventure called "Liminal Bridges" eventually appeared. My guess is it's random.

How do you make sure that you don't "fail" the quest?
Competizione Feb 25, 2016 @ 5:58am 
You just assign someone to it. I don't think you can fail Stronghold Adventures
FireShark Feb 25, 2016 @ 6:49am 
Ah, that's good.

Hmm. I built all the upgrades, hired on as many hirelings as I could, and did every adventure and other stronghold related thing that came up, but I don't recall ever seeing any stronghold adventure higher than Major.

At first I thought the Grand and Legendary adventures were added in the new update, and I was already almost finished with the game and had done almost every sidequest by then, so I didn't have many possible "turns" left at the stronghold. But if the higher tier adventures were already in the game prior to the update, then I have no idea why I never got any.

I did them in 2.0 and hired the Lady of Aedyr, who is very expenisve, but gives +6 prestige. And got +2 for Maerwald too. Basically, given a choice I took prestige over security..In 3.0, I'm not sure that really matters or at least not yet for me.

..Some of it is random though and you might just have been unlucky.

To be honest I think it's more a thing of luck than of prestige. My security is about 14 points higher than my prestige and I still got the legendary adventure. Most adventures I get are grand ones.
Couldn't find the second topic about this that had appeared recently, so replying here.

I started a new game where I stormed into Caed Nua with a level 2-3 party to get the stronghold as early as possible. I rebuilt the Main Keep to be sure adventures would be offered.

The first adventure was offered at Turn 16 around 15,000 XP. The next one at Turn 24 around 19,000 XP. Then one at Turn 32 around 25,000 XP, and the most recent one at Turn 40 around 30,800 XP.

Every 8 turns an adventure? How much quest XP per stronghold Turn is it? Three adventures with 15% XP, one with 25%. Need to continue playing tonight for more data.

I don't know if you aim to get the stronghold quests achievement, but if so, you might actually miss the crapy ones if you upgrade too soon.
Although the legendaries take their time to show up, by late game, youll get plenty (assuming you upgraded keep fully by the time).

It could be that all that is not related. Why would stronghold upgrades affect the adventures? Here it has been 15%, 25%, 15% and 15%.

In the previous playthrough, I've had the stronghold rebuilt completely for a long time without any Grand or Legendary adventures getting offered. Party was level 16, not much left to do, but it could be that I had rebuilt the Main Keep too late to start getting adventures.

Current guess is that the achievement is only a matter of time and doesn't depend on any stronghold upgrades other than the Main Keep. I got the Main Keep much too early this time, because the first adventure was offered only at stronghold Turn 16.

The game also cannot know what quests you will do next, so it cannot predict how many XP you will get next. I rebuilt the Warden house to do a first bounty at level 7, and that immediately completed the current minor adventure. Quest XP advance the stronghold turns.
