    [​IMG] Um, maybe this is a dumb thread, but I just gotta ask.

    I found a Gesen Bow Shaft during the Skinner quest, but after beating the game, I had not found the string! Could anyone tell me where it is? :confused:

    The string is in Spellhold behind one of the walls with the monster pictures on them.

    Thanx!

    Oh, and by the way, what can Mithril Tokens be used for? By the end of the game, I was lugging around like 30 of them and never had any idea of what to do with them.

    Behind the same wall is a vending machine that takes the tokens and dispenses magic footwear and one piece of magic armor depending on how many tokens you deposit.

    [​IMG] :DThis has probably already been said somewhere but the best number to put in is 15 tokens. This gives you the boots of speed. Then you can use the rest on whatever else you want. :D

    OOOOO-kkaaaaaaayyy.

    So, do they have an arcade with Pong, Alien Invasion, Pac-Man and all the other Medieval games back there too, or were you being serious? (After meeting Neeber, I'm ready to believe anything.)

    They are for exactly what he spoke of. There is a machine just past the Room of Face Riddles. There is a chest in one room with 3 Golems. Go south through the door in this room and you'll come to the magic machine.

    Use the tokens on this machine to get a different reward pending on how many tokens you put into it.

    Seriously, and you can trust me on that. Funny concept, but then again Spellhold is a funny place.
    I was surprised by the slot machine as I like to call it as well... But the thing about it and tokens is real. And you can't use them for anything else either, so make sure you get the boots of speed the first time because you probably won't be coming back.

    [​IMG] Sorry Blackthorne, but I just had to be sure. A spellhold vending machine was just way too out there for me. :D

    I know exactly which room your talking about, as I could never get in there. Only two of my party members had bludgeoning weapons, and one was Aerie, so, go figure right? :rolleyes:

    You don't have the Flail of Ages being used by an ever-so-powerful, kick-ass front line fighter?

    Or perhaps the Mace of Disruption +2 being dual wielded in the other hand?

    Smashing, bashing, crashing your way to victory with saliva spitting out the side of your maw, your teeth gnawed and locked, your eyes full of rage and fury?

    Ah. Those were the days.

    Obviously, otherwise he'd be longing for something more powerful than that puny flail of the ages.
    Ages is right. AGES ago I used it last. Heh heh.

    Well, I never did any of the Chapter 2 quests except for the main storyline, I just did what the Shadow Thieves wanted me to do, and went to Spellhold as soon as possible.

    Bear in mind, that I had not maxed out my XP at the end of the game, and I got out of the Underdark in just under 31 days.
