Ice Dragon Bug?

[Dragnipurake]

*Spoilerish*



I managed to get the Dragon's Castle to sell me stuff without a fight. When I interacted with it the Dragon mentioned that I was using the "old password - a bucket on the head", and went into a conversation about linguistics ... it even gave me a black dragon egg in the end.

I think this might be because I was using the 'Clay Bowl' (-5 Mana + 1 Intel) item in my head slot ... probably some sort of reference to KBTL

I couldn't find that file in the folder mentioned, even showing the hidden files. Could it be located somewhere else?

You can also work around this by not killing the Ice Dragon last. Worked for me at least, killed it first and problem was solved.

Guess its the death animation thing that bugs the game out if it happens when the fight ends.

I suggest you to look in the KB directory and seach for the "ses.kfs" file : the script should be inside. I just use 7zip to read it, modify it and when I quit notepad, 7zip just let me update the library file.

Nice trick with the clay bowl, but by that time, all of them were dispel for me.

And the bug happens to me even if I kill the Ice Dragon first, or by indirect spell.

JPR out!

That's freaking awesome. KBTL, one of the first items you get is the clay bowl. I'm not sure why that would be a 'secret password' but...

Now it makes me wonder if other fights could be done different. Maybe if you equip the griffon portrait or banner, the one Royal griffon in Arlania won't attack you... Dang.

Did anybody solve situation with mad griffin in Arlania? Is any way to avoid a battle with it? Thanks in advance.

Yup, it's definitely the Clay Bowl, I gave it a try and it worked for me too.

Nice little Easter Egg of sorts.

edit: I've been trying really hard to get the Ice Dragon kill to trigger a crash, and I haven't been able to do it. Doesn't matter what order I kill them in or how I kill them (or so it seems). Anyone have a save with a specific move order to trigger the crash?
