When does the Burning Library unlock? (Spoilers within)

[A6M Zero]

So I've seen Tunon at the start of Act 1, visited Lethian's Crossing, discovered I have to do some more quests elsewhere to unlock the LC Spire and am in the Blade Grave on the Disfavoured's behalf.

However, when I talked to Tunon he talked about me investigating the Sages at the Burning Library to investigate if they were intercepting Disfavoured communications. However, the Library is still locked on my map. Does it only unlock further along the Disfavoured stuff, or am I missing something?

[Mnemon]

I didn't play the disfavored line but on other quest lines it will unlock later on and is not accessible even if Tuon mentions it before you take the right quests.

Thanks, I was a bit worried I'd missed some vital quest NPC in the Bastard City or something.

At one point I got the option to go to the burning library or that other place I forget the name of, I went to the other place and after that the burning library was permanently locked out for me.

Correct. You have to choose the Burning Library when you get presented with 2 options.
The place you dont choose will be locked out for the playthrough.

Went for the disfavored part before betraying them at the stone ocean since I didn't want it to be barren (you can betray them at jagged maw shrine) , I unlocked it after business in the blade grave, more accurately : after confirme Ashe's daughter survival, whatever outcome with the baby .

Then you will have the choice to get there depending on your dialogue with Ashe.

Can you please assist? I would really like to play the Burning Library part of the game too but i am long after the turning point with Ashe to ask him to send me there too. But I have figured out that the quest can be started with this command: StartQuest fq_dis_qst_02_burninglibrary

So now I only need to unlock Effigy location on my world map to start the quest, correct? Can you please hint me as to how to do that by a console command? Thank you!

[LadyMamoulian]

I just found out thanks to reddit people: WorldMapSetVisibility AR_0302_Effigy 1 unlocks the Effigy location the World Map so I (you) can quest away :)

[Jogin]

I unlocked Effigy with console, but I cant save Maric, just have one option to kill him, how solve this problem?

[Ringpeace]

Does anyone know how to do the unconventional materials achievement. Supposedly there's a rune that needs to be cut from a sage's chest. I couldn't seem to find the sage in 4 runs thus far.

Why did they do this? Locking out players from whole locations and storylines just because they chose a different quest first makes absolutely no sense in an RPG.

Wut? It's the truest form of an RPG experience.

Yeah, making the game basically linear based on two or three limited choices that you make between the chapters is sooo true to the RPG experience, right.

I don't remember Fallout 2 banning me from certain locations depending on what the game thought I should do next.

Not to mention the Fatebinder should have set it upon himself to resolve as much of Kyros's edicts as possible, as it has been established that it takes away Kyros' power and gives it to the Fatebinder, also increasing the number of various Edicts he/she can issue.

It makes absolutely no sense to lock out the Library because "you havachosen a difarent quast HURRRR". This is not like an RPG at all.

Anybody figure out how to save Maric if you enable the quest via console?

For the above who mentioned they cannot access the Burning Library by normal means: I'm not sure what exactly causes it but I assume it has to do the options you chose in your run.

I started somewhat neutral but had a full run with the Disfavored as my main ally afterwards. I just looked up my videos and the questline follows as: (spoilers here)

1.You returned Ashe's daughter to him, prompting him to give you a choice of investigating Burning Library or Lethian's Crossing.

2. You choose the Burning Library, and he directs to find his master scout Maric in Effigy

3. Kill or find a way to get rid of every sage and defenders in Effigy. Find Maric on the top left who is being bound to a pole.

4. Once Maric is released, it will unlock a cutscene where he will give you the location of the Burning Library

Yeah but if you choose the Burning Library it locks you out of the Bronze Brotherhood questline & access to the dungeon inside the spire
