Done searching.... (Act 3 Spoilers)

[No' Name]

Hello all,

So, I'm fed up with looking around now, and I'm wondering how you go about to ascend to "Divinity". I've entered the Lunar Temple, read all the books, done all the quests on the island, and all I'm left with is the stupid robot saying "You must complete your studies".

I've been in the library, read every single book, looted everything, why am I getting this prompt still?

I honestly don't care about spoilers at this point in time, I just want to progress now. I can't spend another 2 hours roaming the island time after time, for nothing that helps me out.

Can someone help me out please? And thanks in advance.

So you've done the thing with the 3 electrical conduits to advance into the final room with some old friends? inside the Lunar temple

Yup, got fed up with the talking, and going back and forth to the Library, so I just killed them all since I figured I'd probably need to do it sooner or later.

Sounds like a bug to me, I skipped over a lot of things in my single player playthrough and I still got to tell the machine I had done with my studies, I assume you've prayed to all the 7 shrines considering you scoured the Island aswell?

I might have missed one, I'll try praying at the altars again.

but if that's the case to proceed further, or "finish" the game, it's a stupid design. Act 3 from what I can tell thus far seems rather short, and definitely not 25% of the game like Larian had stated, because Fort Joy (the map) was WAY bigger, and it kind of feels like they "Cheesed" act 3 with a short map.

And if their answer is "well just pray at all the altars and do the puzzles" as 25% of the game, that's a load of BS.

But again, I'll try praying at all altars again.

Do you have Spirit Vision and Source Vampirism? I'm pretty sure that's what the studies refer to.

I didn't do it my second time around which is why its strange, because you should be able to move forward, All major events I can think of which can be missable depending on playstyle,

Black Prince, The Sallow man, Mother Tree, Flooded Temple, Xantessas temple, but I don't think they have much bearing on progression

Sorry I couldnt be more help dude but thats all the information I could possibly provide based on progressing past here twice

Yes, I have source Vampirism, used Spirit vision and such, but still no such luck, and don't worry Shawry, your help is appreciated.

I do plan to beat this game multiple times, mucha s I did the first game, so if worst case scenario i have to restart, well, it's not the end of the world.

Pretty much played around with classes and such I enjoyed, and I'd like to try others as well.

It would just be kind of a bummer to make it "this far", only to have a "bug" get in the way of finishing the game.

Hmm... Weird. Just a random thought, do all your companions have Source Vampirism and Spirit Vision?

No.

Does that matter?

[{=MiniLink=}]

hmm lets see i got on the Island, prayed at the 7 altars (the pocket dimension is easy to miss) then i went in to the Luna temple, did the arena fight (portal behind door in
the right room), after that i activated the blue beam to open the path after i was done with the spirits. don't think there was anything else.

EDIT: Only the godwoken need Source Vampirism and Spirit Vision if you have mercs with you they don't

[Sickofguessing]

You dont need to do "all" of the temples. I did two and Alexander told me the rest when I popped him. The "Studies" means nothing. You have to just go tell the robot at the end you have a finished and you are prepared to fight and thats it.

[dark.rei]

You don't need all the temples. I didn't realize I was hitting a point of no return and missed Xantessa's, among other things.

IDK if you need to clear out the robot arena first or anything, but you did find the Chancelor as well, right?
