heh i fought a few ashbeasts today also, but i play on easy though cause im lazy
+ i get really scary sometimes lol its weird this isnt even a horror game but i get freaked out more then any other game
i got 3 questions thats been really bothering me for a while now.
1. where in earth do u get scrolls to destroy barriers? everywere i go theres these anoying barriers in the way and i explored 3/4 of the island, 0 barrier spells found. i managed to get trough 1 barrier by attacking it but it seems that was a bug cause all the other barriers dont work this way.
2. unlock scrolls, where do u get them? i could have sworn i saw a npc selling these before but i cant find him back
3. what do i do with romanov's casket? i cant open it so is there someone i should bring this to?
and some usefull information i got. things u could easily look over and forgetting.
-Gut Animals alone is useless(edit: i think? now i start to doubt if the tools are related to gutting lol), u need the proper tools before u can profit for it, and i always thought there were only 2 tools to help with this but thats totally WRONG. you got
Horn Saw, Jaw Chisel, Sting breaker, Jaw Tongs and Wing Shears 5 tools i found so far i wished i got them much MUCH earlier lol. keep this in mind before u decide to slaughter every creature =p.
-another thing that u can easy look over is a side quest, if u got a Lizard sword talk to Karlsen in the monastry and u get a dialog+a quest following about this sword.
