A Woman's Lot - Did anyone manage to find the plant Marigold?

[Ozone]

Spoilers below:


I need it to take care of Samuel. There's only Comfrey in the designated area. Using "Seek" with Tinker is useless. Also, the idiot creature actually helps the Cumans to find me. I didn't get farther than this in the DLC but I guess at some point he's going to die and I can't f*cking wait for this useless♥♥♥♥♥♥to have a sword shoved through its guts.

It is in NE marked area, all 10 around dead body with torch burning on ground.

This is actually the good part.

What bother me in this quest it is time-limited (seems Sam just bleed out while you are frantically running with torch around) and I was not able localize all 3 cloth´s in time over couple of tries (spent there like 2 real hours on this part).

Happened I reached this quest part with 0 bandages and was able found only 5 bandages in area - including killing (was really mad at that moment as you need 3x quest cloth OR 6x bandage - but having 5x bandage and 2x quest cloth is not enough.. This is kinda stupid design.

Gave up and realoaded earlier savegame to get bandages first elsewhere.

Seek is only partially useful - dog lead you to marks on map which actually is only partially helpful here (eg. there is broken wagon that contain nothing for quest..)

Once you get marigold area, jsut bring 3 bandages (3 are in cave) and it is trivial.

The bright orange flowers you are looking for are in the western part of the area marked on the map. I had a potion allowing me to see nearly like in daylight for ten minutes (don't know the English name of the potion, sorry) which helped a lot. Unfortunately, there is a Cuman on patrol in this area. Tell the dog to wait or to stay close,l sneak up from behind and kill the Cuman with a dagger (worked fine for me). Near the flowers there are also some corpses lying around. One of them (I think the woman) has a piece of the linnen you need for bandage.

Spoiler regarding the marigold flowers...You can find 5 marigold flowers on the road next to the spot where you and Samuel are hiding - they're in a cache of herbs in a broken wagon. The other 5 you'll need to pick as described in the post just above.

Thanks I found them, just had to look for the enemies (well, one of them was actually a miner with a torch, probably trying to pretend he was Cuman)

[Ozone]

Spoiler about Theresa's story ending

I was right, the dog died like it lived, like an idiot piece of s*it

[CrackeR]

I found it at an accident site just above and to the left of where you leave Sammy

To be honest ... this is one of the greatest ♥♥♥♥ I have ever played in my whole gamer-life.
No wonder that they say this DLC will take around 15 hours ... cause you spend 3 hours to find those FU**ING flowers ...

[Suomipoika11]

Easily. Near the field patrols a lone cuman that's easy to kill with the aid of the dog carries a Nighthawk potion with him. With that, finding the herbs was easy peasy. Or if you saved one form Skalitz treasure, all the better.

Just go all defensive untill the dog desides to sick on the Cuman, and let him have it.

[Tanya Degurechaff]

he died after all that, should have slit his throat myself.

Man because of your comment i though in my game Sam also died because he bleed out and that i had been too slow to finish, so i spend next ~3hours to retry this mission and finish all things optional and not - everything doing very quick, finding all cloths, even when having bandages, thinking that at the end i might see some other outcome (well she already said to Henry before that Sam died but who knows maybe some reverse story changes or different outcome to see i suspected because of your comment, it seems it didn't change anything but i still not finished dlc. Well at least i saved bandages and got ~2-3 more loots :P

It's full of fetch quests. Lucky I saved right before the quest triggered before I got time warped into Theresa's body. It got so bad I stopped mid dlc, went back to that old save, kept the dog and never looked back, lol.

Weakest part of otherwise great quest. But Johanka's quest is better.

Well, it is not best follow and necro old posts as all things could have been patched and changed over time (and this topic was created shortly after DLC release). But iiirc at time of my post running out time simply meant failed quest and game over + there was fairly limtied time window for everything.

Yeh btw for now this games story seems to be quite similiar masochistic as i encountered in Telltale Game of Thrones game, different genre but at the end not so much because story is much linear at least in this dlc. Btw did they must to kill in this story our Teresas girls dog at the end to fullfill her sadness, really masochistic. And i though this dog had been alive before this dlc showed so now don't tell me that dog died because i dared to play and finish this dlc, nice reward :facepalm :o

The main story is very linear (een though at various stage you can abandon it and enjoy free world) but fine - not amazing and it has big let down later which is big negative for me. Even though some quests are very good and memorable (even by searching for console commands to restore missing quest items and others:p

It is from history of my country and favourite genre so I was following development and was superexcited by it at release... only for being punished for it by replaying over and over due combination of save system, plethora of bugs (you can find lot of my posts in this discussion about various bugs I encountered and as time to time some are still opened in discussion I know good part survived to this day) or search solutions for them and clunky not fun combat system that "can" be realistic (and even give false feeling it has learning curve and is rewarding with Bernard in arena... well at least if you are not stuck in it and has to restart your day and trainng due bug AGAIN) but at end of day force player to grab superb perks and use cheesy tactics (like abuse riposite as each attack is otehrwise easily countered by that super secret sword masters disguised as looters...) which sucks....

And I realize the same things again and again if I want give game another chance after long time break when all harms done are forgotten at the end I feel almost sorry I invested so much time and money into this game and would gladly refund it if there would be the option. Nvm, this is probably not the place for reviews:p

tl;dr - imho the story is not good enough to justify all flaws game has and it brings only dissapointment later. (and btw I like Telltale games, even though their presntation of "choice" is only illusion by large part... but I am fine with that. if you did not played yet I suggest check Wolf among us - it is very likely the best and hide suprisingly rich story and deep characters behind mask of fairytale... and Pillas of the Earth is newer title closer to real history)
