Did you actually "finish" the questline (participate in multiple quests), or did you steal the sword? Try to refrain from posting spoilers though. If you did, do you have any comments....?
The sword misspelling is a pretty minor thing, and if you did complete the entire quest line, I am surprised that is the one thing you had to say about it. I asked for suggestions for changing the name because I didn't want to name it that, but never got any serious answers....
Faction Armory only applies to the Feron right now, and even then items are unlocked as you complete quests only.
Serathos, it was decided a few weeks back, was toned down due to how easy it is to acquire. It was much too powerful in its original form compared to the artifacts I added that are much harder to get. Sometime in the future, it might get reworked.
The Book is a history and guide book. There are, and may be in the future, opportunities to use it. The Blighted Plague quest line is not in the game right now. There is an opportunity to use that knowledge currently in the game, but I'm not going to give way how to do it this early on.
Though I like to play evil characters rather than good guys, I would never do something dishonourable as killing a wounded man just for his sword (at least if I am not on the battlefield) that should answer this question. So yes, I finished the Gilaes quests. And actually, I really liked the idea of persuation (and first aid, shouldn't that actually be an Aura now?) being more important now, as I am not that kind of player who likes to have many companions, actually, I never have any of them at all, so persuation was a useless skill for me, though I really like the image of my characters being good with words as good as with swords. So, I hope there will be a chance to use persuation more often in different quests, so that there actually is a use for using skill points on it. However, maybe it should not be absolutely necessary for solving all or most quests involving it (but maybe some of them) but make the quest easier?
Nothing else to comment about the Gilaes quests, nice idea, good rewards, just what a neutral faction should be about.
Well, actually there was one thing else: If you decide to take 'him' as companion, what about an option to send him back to the city until you need him again? I think he might be in the way sometimes.
And about the spelling, well, the quests were well developed, but I was just surprised to find a German word in the game. And yes, maybe the Name is not the best decision, as it seems to be a "Flamberge"-type, that french name is translated as Flammenschwert in German, giving the idea that the "Flammenscwhert" is just an ordinary sword with a special shape. However, I don't have any Idea for a better name, sorry. I'm not good with names.
I see. I hope these other artifacts are more powerful than the "Bent staff of skulls" or that insane hammers the crusaders of the dawn were wiedling in the last version, which seemed to be quite ordinary despite their power.
Well, then I will wait until the Plague quests and Necromancy are done, as I am a fan of the arts of the dead.
By chance, I wonder, if the player does not hail from Talera, why can you use Elven, Undead and even Dread-Lord (By the way, what kind of creatures are these guys now? From the look I'd say some kind of zombie or Lich) but not a Feron Face? I guess it's because their faces are actually helmets?
not very archmage-y.
