HELLKNIGHTS?!

[Austin]

i let these guys look for a criminal in my lands , fine. start getting negative modifiers from the investigations , whatever. the criminal shows himself and trys to talk to me , immidaiatly call the guards and do lawful evil combat attempt.
if i try to talk with the hellknight leader though they immidatly turn hostile even if i try to help them with darven or whatever , anyways my question is how to side with hellknights on this quest i dont want to side with the half elf.

doesnt seem like there is a timer either the investigation just lasts forever

You can't, as far as i know. One way or another, you will end up fighting the hellknights

YA THERE IS LITERY NO WAY all the dialog for sideing with them or agaist darven is like false dialog that doesnt do anything it all happens the way the game wants no matter what you do , none of your choices seem to affect anything :< Darven magically pops out of god knows were after ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ years of investigation to randomly stab some chick when ME SPECIFICALLY comes to talke to her BUT BOYYY OHH BOYYY you better talk to her becuse we give you anoying penalys for the rest of your life if you dont. jeez , this is my 2nd playthough to becuse my first game completly glitched out.

Probably some flags are messed up, but helping Darven from start to finish literally has no drawbacks.

Ednslide spoilers:
He becomes a loyal ally and valuable trade partner. Also, he does it for Mammon, who is Lawful Evil, so you commit no transgression against your alignement :)

Remember: Hellknights fight CHAOS, and they're absolutely strict about it. Talking to Darven is probably more chaotic than they can handle :P

im lawful neutral but really just takeing the choices i want , I REALLY dident want to side agaist the hellknights or with darven or bother with this quest at all really since the game threw me immiatly into the armag story after the vodikia one , the quest literly started the day after i dont know if its supposed to be like that. :/ thats why i neglected this quest so long i thought it whould time out but it seems to last forever (which is weird you whould think the hellknights whould just leave after a couple years).

They stay quite long. That said... you can side with neither and kick them both out (using various levels of violence) in the end.

I'm very good friends with hellknights. Yes, you fight them at secluded lodge but you can side with Linxia in Brineheart.

I remember that quest. I messed everyone up so bad with a quadruple backstabbing that at the end the npcs were like WTF you're completely mad.

Consider yourself lucky if you can even get brineheart to show up in your game (the conclusion to this quest). For me, its frozen forever and won't turn up, meaning no loot and no rewards.

half the quests in this game are bugged , iv had a few events where advisors want to see me then give me a nice empty dialog box when i check whats up.

[Gerarderloper]

Yeah certain dialog options will doom quests sometimes. I've kinda decided to stop playing, maybe v1.1 will be better but I bet this particular issue slips by them somehow.

PS. Another example of broken dialog quest progression is with nok noks king challenge quest (the smelly sulfar cap he gets), if you pick option 3 which is Ill come but its your fight, the quest dies forever! LOL

To revive and old post -- yea this quest is garbage. I love how the Hellknights can completely disrespect the king/ baron (aka you) and you just have to answer them like its all ok. not even an [Attack] option. (however, in the cabin i said "i have to go" and it leads to a fight. still would of rather just attacked them out of pure disrespect. but was a fun fight in the cabin tho.

I dont know how to post the screenshot.

but yea, also how they just walk away even why you say arrest them. Such ♥♥♥♥♥♥ quest making and nothing like the rest of the game.

The last thing, I heard but i dont know how true it is, but this quest was made by some kick starter big donator. Either way the devs need to fix how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it is compare to the rest of the game. So many ♥♥♥♥ options for dialog as well as quest in interaction in general.

The Hellknights were beating one of my subjects. There was no way I could let them live.

So many necromancers today. What dark deed is occuring around here?!
