Not bloodlines but Redemption this time

This isn't bloodlines, but what the hell...?
ATM, I'm on my first serious runthrough of Redemption. And I'm stuck int the Stefansdom clock. I have no idea how to get my cotery past this penulum thing, and no walkthroug I found even mentiones it.

-

That fucking clock man.
I gave up and only found a way past it when I made a half-hearted attempt with a tiny degree of hope that I'd pass.
There is a scroll of Mist Form or something like that in the chest on the bottom level as I recall, that was what ultimately granted me passage.

Yep I got the scroll. But whatever I do, when the first character to pass stops it by using the switch, it stops in a position where I cant get the rest of them through. Or can I make the scroll work on the whole crew somehow?

-

My crew refused to stay still and walked right into the clock before I could stop it, I just went onwards with one character (Erik) until I reached the next level and use a scroll of awaken when they'd spawn at my feet.

I keep them mostly switched off anyway, and explore with Christophe alone. Just keep the rest nearby for backup it things get realy ugly. Hasn't occured to me to cjheck yet. But if I'm not mistaken, Eric doesn't get to the party with fogform.

-

He doesn't, I used the scroll and had him as my main man to solo the place.
Had a high fortitude investment with that guy.

I've tried again now, and got Christophe and Wilhem around without stopping the bloody thing. But now, tha stupid cappadocain bitch, what was her name?, seems not ot be able to run. The controls, especially the positioning realy is clumsy.

-

Finally, I got them through...

Well done, and sorry for the lack of response these past couple of hours
School is a pain.

Not so much as work...

@Malkav: Her name was Serena, I think.

Time will tell.
And yeah, her name was indeed Serena.

Wait... School? How old are you Karavolas? If you don't mind me asking, of course.

*looks up with beautiful yellow eyes and wags*

School, college, whatever.

To answer your question I'm 5!

(Plus 14 = 19)

Childe - once you get past the pendulum with the Scroll of Mist Form, you can turn it off. Look around with the cursor for the switch; it will light up when the cursor runs across it. (Very obvious panel on the wall.)

Save before you hit the switch... about 1 in 10 times, the pendulum stopped so that it blocks the walkway, and the characters can't get past.

You lucky bastard...
Can we switch?

Would that make me older or younger?

BTW, why don't you put your details on? Like country and age?

I don't pay attention

I found the switch. You simply cannot overlook it. But for me it stopped in the wrong position about 10 in 10 times. That's why I asked in the first place

Just finished the Teutonic knight's Headquarters. Why did they even bother putting all these knights in there? Even a Tremere hopper is more of a challenge...

Now I have found out what caused my troubles with the Stephansdom pendulum. My mapfile seems to be coruupted, so the bloody thing doesn't swing the right way.
But if I stop it, and then move on alone to the second level, the others turn up there "alive". So no more problems...

I kind of liked the Teutonic Knight base. It would be better (and more logical...) if all of your weapons were taken when you are captured, and you have to find weapons after you escape your cell. I like to grab the axe from the room nearby and buff up potence and celerity - it's so amusing to me when you lop off a Teutonic Knight's helmeted head and it goes bouncing across the floor. Even better once your find the Ainkurn sword (twin to Dracula's blade).

Vienna chantry is more fun though. After i read the appropriate Tome, I add XP until I have Prison of Ice. Try your tricks now, Tremere Lords!!

Yep, that's a good one. Pepper it up with Theft of Vitae and Call Lightning, and you can go through the rest of the game like a hot knife through butter...

Oh, btw, I only have the german version, and when I ask Ekaterina for her blood, the translation is frankly bullshit. What does she really say? I guess it's some kind of toast to absent friends, but I can't get the real context...

As far as I can remember(haven't played in a while), her line in the English version is

"I do give thee a goblet of my blood, brave Christoph. May the arm of a saint, arm us with absent friends"
