Varnhold's Lot--Starving ankou

[MightyMouse]

Has anyone figured out how to release the starving ankou? And what about that huge magical flower? I'm thinking it must be more than decoration, but I don't see how to manipulate it.

Magic Teleportation Maze Logic : just because you entered from one way...
doesn't mean you'll go back to where you were if you use that same way again.

Not sure how this answers my questions...:/

Try Left Bottom teleporter in central room – if it is working – and then bottom teleporter in the resulting room. Use rune here.

Otherwise - provided you killed at least earth elemental before - go right bottom at central room, left [well, upper left of the three], left and then bottom.

I figured it out through messing around with all the portals. The trick is to back track through most of them, and hold TAB so you don't miss any of the runes needed to unlock its magical cage.

This is exactly what youa re looking for, Ensure that you go through all of the possible rooms and when you kill everything you can kill the ankou and interact with the flower.

Translation (and because i'm not sure of what Kondenado wanted to say quoting me)

Logic says : take teleport A. It bring you to teleport B. And so on.

But we're in a magic maze. It's RPG. So fwuck Logic.

Take teleport A. You end at teleport B.
Now you would follow teleport C to presumely go at teleport D.
Wrong : take back teleport B to end at teleport E. You got it ? :)

I just wanted to highlight that your answer was the correct one ;). But also, to say that you need to go through all of the rooms.

Thank you everyone! :)

I've killed the demon locked in the circle in the main room. I have zero clue as to where to go from there. I'm not getting any updates.

That's because ankou is totally plot irrelevant. You have unblocked path for plot progression (the hole east of central room) long time ago.

Well then I am totally lost. I've held tab down and walked every place I could find. I've hit at least 3 runes that I remember.

You're speaking of where the angel is? I went there and let him out but couldn't find any new ways to go from there.

In my personal experience, using Chain Lightning as soon as the battle starts is amazingly effective at battling Anko's. By the time you're high enough level to cast it, you can pretty much one shot all the clones they summon as part of their opening attack.

[Shhh]

Standard cheese of delay poison and stinking cloud works wonders on Ankou ( and a lot of other powerfull things). And can be done at level 5.

What loot does the corps have?
I somehow rushed the dungeon and didn't break the seal of the Ankou
